As an American "oi cunt" is often deemed inappropriate and abusive

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

As an American who actually talks to people like that it pretty much just weeds out all overly sensitive people making my life a lot simpler.

If I call you a cunt in a joking tone with a smile on my face and you get all puffy I'm erasing your existence in my mind.
