Hey mosca,
Where did your quote come from? I think it's great to see Julian Cope take his rightful place as the authority on everything. As he himself says about himself "I'm a righteous forward-thinking motherfucker".
Oh no I just lowered the tone again with another taboo word. I'm gonna ban myself...

typical of this forum - someone tries to start a decent trolling and it gets dragged into the mire of etymology and philosophers. tsk!
OK here's my vleesroos factoid:
after British slang picked up coney as a synonym for "cunt" (cf. connyfogle "to deceive in order to win a woman's sexual favors") it forced a change to the pronciation of the name of the long eared rabbit (Coney) from rhyming with 'money' to rhyming with 'boney', to avoid confusion!
That's why there are so many disapointed tourists at Coney Island I guess?

Shakespeare, the dirty old slapper, was being quite fnar fnar rude when he had Hamlet lay his head in Ophelia's lap and say "I am well versed in Country Matters".
It was a double entendre.
BTW, did you hear about the Irishman who thought that innuendo was an Italian suppository?

haha this has to be one of the most hilarious thread topics I've seen.
Have to admit I haven't read through all the posts, I just saw some irate righteous posts about very "mannerly boys getting hot under the collar at your rudeness".
I have no idea about macs, but there are enough media-hypnotised morons who bought overpriced Ipods in the world (though cheaper better featured units exist from many other companies) that it is obvious ... needy people like goatee beards, GAP style "funky" advertising and the whole "I'm an arty rebel" aspect of the mac world.
The white headphones of an ipod now signal the same level of coolness as legwarmers. Steve Jobs is surely sniggering at all the sad fucks who bought his advertising onslaught.
But, joking aside, Macs are just plain better. Steve Jobs licks every chip like a chocolate taster. That is why we pay a huge premium for technology manufactured in the same taiwanese sweatshop as my uncool Dell-user friends. Glad I paid the extra $1000 ... you can run many more instances of Reaktor 5 in Live 5 beta on a Mac than you can in a windows PC. Mac is just a better machine. It is that simple. Mac = quality and inspiration. Windows = utility.

mosca wrote:cunt is an old norse word i believe for 'womanhood or female'
anyone who is intouch with their female side is in fact a cunt, odin was a cunt apparently (cant remember the ins and outs of it all)
it's not really an insult, sounds good when you say it in a scottish accent tho
m
PS : my hypno boobs get censored and yet no one has piped up about the word cunt! what is this place coming to?
I showed your post to my girlfriend , she, just cant wait to meet an idiot like you. NOT!
ITS A MASSIVE INSULT TO ANYONE< ESPECIALLY A FEMALE.
"the C word means "a woman who is thoroughly disliked" and thats the nice term in the dictionary. But you reckon its for women that are in touch with their female side. Are you really that thick or just 11 years old.
your lucky because this forum is owned by a German company with many people from all over the world who may not quite understand how offensive this word is in the English language. On most forums you would be banned immediately.
Its not an insult is it? Go in to a bar in Argyle strreet go up to the first dude or woamn and call them a C. Lets see if you still have a nose after that!!
.
Sorry folks, but when I see this word on this forum (AND ONLY THIS FORUM) I feel very strongly about it. Im no prude, but thats just going to far.

After reading this entire thread I have only one question:
What on earth are you people on about?

DJRetard, i guess you've never been to Australia.
many of our members on this forum are Ozzies and Brits, where the word isn't as taboo. and if you want to talk about how offensive the word is in "the english language", then you might want to talk to people from ENGLAND. i guarantee you they aren't even a fraction as offended as you are.
I remember going to a footie game in Melbourne 2 years ago, and hearing a little 9 year old girl call the officials "fucking cunts with shit in their eyes", and then an old woman 2 rows back said "fair dinkum".
only in the western hemisphere (specifically the United States) is this word so forbidden.
remember, its just a word.
