It had potential.............. until you said that.

Is this one of the threads where everyone will say "Cool story, bro"?

Many reasons.
Games take you away from reality as you take role of a particular character, therefore becomes entertaining.
Games have puzzles and learning curves on how to play (sadly most of them lack of it now), therefore becomes entertaining.
Games allow you to control what you do, whatever you do, dictates on what happens, therefore becomes entertaining.
Games allows socialising, such as multiplayer, you compete your skill and wits against each other, therefore becomes entertaining.
Games provide a challenge for you, and serve as a distraction, as said above about it taking you away from reality, therefore becomes entertaining.

I doubt there's any other reason to play it, apart from of those reasons.
Fuck yeah, repeat the same ending line "Therefore becomes entertaining".

The point of this is asking if we should fix this; as in, people who are using political correctness to nitpick at tiny words, such as the foreman example I've said, should not be changing our words at all, because replacing words into -person is literally destructive to our language and can lead to major errors.

I just did an observation on how we pronounce the word and when we pronounce it based on where we place such a word.
That's why I assumed that the word -man must be a suffix (and can be a prefix as well.).

If I were to say "Fore man". I am addressing specifically to a male.
If I were to say "Fore woman". I am addressing specifcally to a female.
But if I were to say "Foreman", then I am addressing it as a collective of people in that field.

Our language is filled with special rules and meanings that, if separated, means different, but if put together creates a whole new meaning.

That's the problem though with words such as "Retarded" or "Negro", because they specifically define who/what someone/something is.

The reason words such as "Retard" was discouraged was simply because people used it as a derogatory term, which therefore people found it offensive which then became a controversial word.
But the amusing part of it is that when we are accepted to use "Retard" as a technical term for slowing. Such as; Fire Retardant.

Moving onto the word "Negro", we can't use that to define a black person, but if you want to define someone such as a white person, or a mexican, you would call them Caucasian, or Hispanic, etc.

That's the problem, we can address a black person as a black person, but we can't address an Asian for a yellow person.
But yeah our political correctness and lack of education has made a lot of individuals who act as do-gooders for society a bit brain dead.

However I did find an error.
When we say "Mankind" we are using a prefix but pronouncing the a strongly, we can easily assume that either there are certain rules in the language that allows "Mankind" to mean - People with similar characteristics, but then again the real word is Humankind, "Mankind" was most likely shortened down, whether intentionally showing male superiority or whether it was convenience, I have no reason to make a real answer to that.

I can go so far in depth on how out of control on how it goes. I can go as far as words such as "Manager", simply because it uses the word "man" before the word.


I could also say is that we are also placing technical language into communicational language, which therefore can lead to further misinterpretations.
Therefore it does demand a major wakeup call, we really need the education system to teach young people the differences between communicational and technical language.
We also need to have history on how the language is formed, as opposed to using the stance of "Read English books, you'll learn English" stance that the majority of the education system seems to be using today. Whilst we do speak of great figures that helped modernise our language (William Shakespeare, Mark Twain, etc.), it does not give us insight on why these words formed up as it is, which we as people should really need.




But yeah, I fully support equal rights for everyone, but it's when these supposed "Equal rights" go too far and we forget the actual meaning of some things and then replace them just to make the other do-gooders happy, we are essentially placing a plaster over the word, totally disregarding the history of such a word and it's true meaning, and it's absolutely appalling to find that they fail to notice how we pronounce each word.


Statua I agree with you, I feel like a fucking idiot when I do my assignments.

I unknowingly finish a 4-5 page assignment and I noticed that I added "-man" to the end of each word of profession, I spent a fair bit of time correcting it to "Person", because it was not just foreman I had, I included words such as draughtsman, businessman, etc.

I just realised that the forums can't be able to use a specific alphabet, but you can easily see that letter by going on a dictionary, wiki, etc.


Foreman with that peculiar alphabetical letter
You'll find that peculiar e shape that has been rotated 180 degrees.

The thing is, in order for us to steer ourselves out of this mess we got into is to find a way to be educated.
What influences us the most in how we behave, communicate, etc? Education, ofcourse.

We (Everyone) should begin to steer ourselves out of that problem, coupled with the boring people who want to make everything politically correct to help influence us to reuse such a word in the alphabet.

But obviously not everyone would learn it instantly by the next day, and there'd be confusion, but I find that a much more logical solution, rather than changing -man into person.
Otherwise, rather than using -man as a suffix, you might as well call a woman a woperson or us as a collective as a huperson.

But then that means we have technically damaged our language.
So you'd have to call it "Female person" or "Wise person" in order to flow with our language properly.

It sounds like that you're living your life doing the exact thing, over and over. I had those dreams where I wake up every morning at the same scenario, but it eventually screws up and I either forget it, or just becomes unreal.


Anyways, the D-day soldier dream? Basing on what you seemed to enjoy but also realise....

You were probably fully aware that war is a terrible thing, knowing that your job is to kill your enemy, and you might have known it was a terrible thing.
But you enjoyed knowing the history about war and you do enjoy guns a lot. (From what I remembered).

Therefore, your mind is picturing what war is like as a soldier, that's when your mind comes to realisation that war is a nightmare soldiers endure.

Dreams (indirectly) serve as a way for your mind to resolve problems or to understand how you would deal with it, basing on what you witnessed & experienced throughout your life.

Seen that, old news.
