    I never understood what environment you are in to use the word faghag.

    Could this thread title be the title of Huey Lewis and the News' comeback hit?

    One that one that shows my pissed off rage.
    One that sounds way worse than "prick."

    By the way, you can say still say "cocksucker."
    It's "fag" that's a no-no.

    Then there are the whole series of politically incorrect -tard slurs.

    My favorite is fucktard. I avoid the R one as I become more sensitive as I get older (and hopefully less of an asshole).

    I like the Louis CK bit about how using faggot as an insult really has nothing to do with homosexuality.

    The only context for that word that I know of is to describe a woman, generally either quite young or well into middle age, who has a number of gay men as part of her usual social circle. They get a chance to hang out, dance, and be catty and bitchy together. I'n never known it to be used in any other way.

    Is there a different current useage?

    When I was too slow pulling out from a red light one evening last year, the guy behind me screamed as he passed, "Fucking Mexican!"

    I am of German descent.

    I've yelled "hurry up, grandpa" at older drivers and wonder how many youngsters have yelled that at me.

    I have unleashed a string of profanities while driving before that would make Lee Elia turn around and say "Oh......damn chef, watch your mouth."
