Apparently Joe has now been awarded his BJJ black belt by Eddie Bravo. I don't know if he deserves it or not, but I know a blue belt buddy of mine tapped him out in training a few months back~

You mean during practice where it's 70% intensity/the goal isn't to win or lose, and after he just got done with a 6 month acl recovery?

Then why would the color of someone else's belt negate Joe's just because he beat Joe in a scenario where winning/losing doesn't determine skillset and Joe hadn't practiced for 6 months?

I have no idea how long it had been since Joe trained when my team mate grappled with him, and based on that I'm really surprised that you seem to possess this knowledge!

Anyway, I think you're reading a lot into my post. Where did I say that my buddy tapping out Joe negated anything at all? I'm pretty sure (I'm totally sure) I explicitly stated that I have absolutely no opinion on whether or not Joe should have that belt, and I honestly don't think that's a very controversial stance to take since it's completely neutral.
If anything, I'm skeptical of any higher belt Mr. Bravo hands out, and that's coming from someone who appreciates his system more than most jits people.

I thought it was funny on Ari's podcast this week, he asked his guest about the World Bank and how it worked, and the guest said he was surprised he didn't know since he hung out with Joe so much.

Ari said Joe was so deep into the conspiracy stuff that anytime he starts talking about it Ari just tunes him out and ignores it. Pretty much what I do now when it comes up on the show.

I figured someone would post about IHC #36 by now, but apparently not. It's on ustream only at the moment, but its gotta be the most awkwardly hilarious icehouse yet. The Bone Zone guys(Brendan, Davey, loving RANBAN[Randy Liedtke]!) were there, and Doug Benson showed up as a special guest due to some plane cancellations screwing him over on his weekend gigs, so he was probably already peeved as is.

All I can say is watch it if you think that Doug Benson is impervious to anger. He flips his poo poo, and then acts like it wasn't his fault that the podcast turned hostile. Randy saves the day(and tbh, I thought everything was AWESOME until Doug started bitching because he wasn't getting the inside jokes from the bone zone), and doug chills out and slightly apologizes for being weird in part two.

Definitely check it out though, its one of the first times I've seen what resembles a fly on the wall view of a true greenroom on the IHC.

I had to do a triple take. I seriously thought this was a photoshop of eddie and joe's head onto others bodies. Joe's body seems REALLY disproportionate to his head in that picture. I definitely heard Maron say that, but never made the connection.

Joe ranting about how horrible it is that people don't like when other people use pejoratives for oppressed groups of people is really grating. His argument in favor of why it should be ok to call people retards and fags is "remember all the great times you've had calling people retards and fags?"

He's got a good point. The words are fun to use, why the gently caress do people care? That argument is just a base argument for freedom of speech.

Agreed on Norton though, the self-depreciation got tiring after a while.

I think the explanation that Joe gave when he 'retired' the word 'fag' works well enough: Rather than disarming the word and making it unrelated to homosexuality, the use of the word in the 14-year-old-suburban-white-male context has resulted in an ineffective word that had muddled meaning, which also upsets a lot of people. It's easier to not upset people than to act like a loving toddler and throw tantrums whenever somebody assumes that you're being racist whenever you call somebody a friend of the family.

You're welcome to call your dumb little buddies fags, niggers, or retarded all you want, but if you do, you're a tremendous shithead who can't be bothered to spend 5 seconds to think up an insult that's funnier than 'kikey heeb'.

You see, the problem you guys have is that you believe these words have one definition. You remember that episode of south park about the harley riders? Same loving concept. A fag to me is a cigarette, or a douchey obnoxious person. The last thing I think of when I think of a fag is a homosexual. Retard is the same way. What do you put bread in to dethaw it? A retarder. Just because retard happens to have a slang definition for a slur towards the mentally handicapped, it also have a definition that basically means idiot.

I mean gently caress, the simple fact the 'nigga' in the black community has been turned into a synonym for brother means that you faggots are reading way too much into the usage of words. I know a few gay dudes who play with eachothers buttholes. And you know what? When they're around someone being an ornery dickhead, they tell him to stop being a fag.

I really wasn't expecting to have to defend myself for freedom of speech, but gently caress, there it is. It's a slippery slope. If I take your viewpoint on it, how is 'gently caress' any better? Some homoesexuals are offended by the word 'fag'. Some elderly/christiany/etc folks are offended by the word 'gently caress'. Are you saying that all words that offend people should be looked down upon and no longer used? Or do you think that people should get the gently caress over themselves? They aren't the majority, as the majority doesn't care, there is more pressing issues at hand than the semantics of word use. Move the gently caress on people.

VV
And at no point am I saying this. What I'm saying is there is a clear defined difference between calling someone trying to mug you a human being and calling a homosexual a human being. One is hate speech, the other is the truth.

Freedom of speech is not an all-protective shield that means people don't get to criticize you for being a thick-headed privileged rear end just fyi. People don't get to tell you what to say, sure, but you don't get to tell oppressed segments of the populace that they just need to nut up.

I save my empathy for those who have issues that are worth empathizing with. I feel for the gay community, but I also believe that they are more concerned with the feelings of hate than they are the usage of words. The same argument that is being made against human being could be made against the word gay. People use it in the exact same context as fag, yet it is no where near as slanderous.

I'm honestly not trying to be a dick, I just really don't think this is as big of an issue as it is made out to be. This kind of thinking is the same poo poo that leads us to oppressive systems like the FCC and S&P, which in theory should be phenomenal ideas, but in practice turn out to be completely skewed(see violence vs sexuality on television).

Except it's not, because I don't think anybody here is arguing that there ought to be a law. What I'm saying is that the best thing a person can do, in this case and maybe in all cases, is to self-examine and modify their own behavior out of love and consideration for other people who have different problems.
