Recently a short high schooler that looks like a 5th grader said "dicks are for chicks you silly f*ggot" to me. Normally I would own up to it just to see the look on there face but this kid REALLY annoys me.

I've been called worse slurs, being bi in a red state, but that one stings the most. Like, I get that you might not respect me on a personal level, but now you're not even respecting me on a professional level.

What's the context here? Presumably not something like "How are you doing today?"

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I'd go with the good ole' "Baptiste the autistic"

Also I am most probably autistic indeed and have come today to the terms of it, but when I was 10 I had no idea what I was doing wrong.

All of them, basically. Arguing with people on Discord got pretty wild sometimes, and one of them straight up pulled up https://slurs.info and tried to use as many as he could. I suppose trying to argue with those people was a mistake, but I didn't get doxxed so all's well that ends well.

In person? Most of the homophobic or transphobic ones, though I don't think most of them were personally directed at me. K*ke (I'm not Jewish) and n-word lover are also pretty bad.

boop Naughty, naughty lemming!

This question could potentially be against rule 2... if it isn't then I guess a bunch of participants are going to see a lot of [removed] depending on their instance's slur configuration ๐Ÿ˜…
