Derogatory term

I mean, you could have said "Piece of shit." Could have said "Asshole." I partial to "Solipsistic." But no.

Hym "It isn't insecurity for me to notice and point out (repeatedly) that you're using small dick as a derogatory term. And then you turn to me and lie 'Oh, um, it's not the inherently negative connotation. You're just not saying words good. I'm not using it as a derogatory term because you're inherently bad. I'm using it because you wouldn't be doing what you're doing if your dick wasn't small.' And then I don't believe you (because I would have to be retarded to believe you) and demonized for pointing out that you're a bigot."

This also applies to terms that point out the fucking obvious, regardless of weather or not it's does anything for the conversation/question.

Look it up on Google.
