5 daysYou’re reaching the fringe of this discussion! So, if he had said “dark brown eyes with epicanthic folds”, is that a bridge too far? I think this is where this question gets messy and it’s why people tend to either leave it well alone, or just wade in with no tact whatsoever.
It’s a bit harsh to imply someone is racist because they use features to describe a person.

6 daysCompletely agree with your take on the UK office. Worse, it started a trend in trying to make the audience cringe instead of laugh.
And I’ve always been at least mildly irritated by Gervais, the cunt. Bothered me how everything he did got critical acclaim and I’d have to have the same conversation over and over again about how he just sets my teeth on edge, and no I haven’t watched, and no, I don’t want to give this one a try, and no, please stop trying to persuade me to like anything with that shit in it, it’s not going to happen, yes I guess I probably am the weird one for not liking him…etc.


A single word: “abstain”/“forgo” , although these don’t express personal dislike. “Eschew” describes the shunning of something so might be more suitable. Since you’re using only one word, you might get some follow up questions:
“I eschew gnome”.

Dude wtf does “eschew” mean and why are you such a poser?Oh really? Why’s that then?”
