[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous](Would you please learn a new line?  "Wow. Just wow." is getting a bit trite.)[/quote]

For those who don't know, "Wow." was suggested by Carolyn Hax as a way to express that you just had no words to describe how flabbergasted you were by the other person's comment without being rude.  It's become quite popular in on-line interactive media.  If you don't like it, I would steer away from some other fora like the Washington Post chats.[/quote]

I think the point is that the phrase has become really overused. Couldn't agree more. And unfortunately, it makes the writer/ user appear insipid and unoriginal.[/quote]
It's pretty much the most polite and concise way to say, [i]"Hey, you and your beliefs are a detriment to, and a drain on, a civilized society. I can't believe that you think what you just said has added positively to our discourse. It is your right to hold such repugnant beliefs, but I am surprised that you spoke them aloud. I am embarrassed by you and for you."[/i] So if you have a better way to put it, please feel free to share with the class.  :twisted: [/quote]

You're so judgmental.... I mean, who are you to decide which beliefs are a positive contribution to civilized society?[/quote]
If calling her (you?) out for referring to children as "illegitimate" (what's next, "bastards"?) makes me judgemental, then I really don't mind being judgemental. I'm pretty damn sure that referring to children as illegitimate does not contributed to a civilized society. Do you disagree?[/quote]
