And i...Sorry, Tracey, but it is an offensive term. And it is a derogatory gay reference.<br /><br />Here's what Urban Dictionary has to say:<br /><br />Has nothing to do with fuck off ! It's used instead of "stop being a fag!"<br /><br />Sites dealing with British slang either didn't mention it or said something similar.<br /><br /><br /><br />If I said "Ni**er off" or "C*nt off" would that be ok because it just meant fuck off?<br /><br />Intentions count, but so does word choice.<br /><br />I'm moderately confident that you and your husband are good, tolerant people, based on your blog posts. <br /><br />That's why it bothered me so much to see that just tossed out there so cavalierly and endorsed by others.<br /><br />You're a good writer, an excellent sculptor and based on everything I can see, a good person. I was really bothered by the word choice precisely because of that. <br /><br />Please don't think I'm beating up on you, that's not my intent.sheapotteryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18430033846588462269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3393740465996795163.post-54881827727857259272012-01-23T20:44:26.470-08:002012-01-23T20:44:26.470-08:00"fag off"???

What a wonderful ...Ron Philbeck you are hysterical! What a wonderful response, you should write us all one. Tracey I know exactly what you mean. I can't offer any help at all but I do understand teh problem.<br />I went to get my hair chopped last week, my hairdresser was lovely bt she said and what do you do. I said I'm a potter. She said "whats one of those, I never heard of one". So I told her, in far too much detail I would imagine and said that that would explain what the brown gunk in my hair was, I hope she believed me.Hannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01268429507947559935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3393740465996795163.post-46372240740373186242012-01-22T10:11:41.399-08:002012-01-22T10:11:41.399-08:00Tracey,

You talked about what you did, why you did it, where you wanted it to go, and to top it off you talked about the reservations you had about incorporating some images and icons in your art. I wanted to hear and see more, but I had to get back to my booth. By the way my friend Sauda said the same thing.<br />So, next time just act like your having a conversation with me...smile<br />Peace and Stitch,<br />CandaceCandace Thomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04180603494997841260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3393740465996795163.post-4257439689440512992012-01-22T09:43:48.854-08:002012-01-22T09:43:48.854-08:00Andrea, Ron made me laugh out loud too.
