<p>…is a euphemism for killing a baby?</p>
<p>=\ … was watching a movie and the girl was like “i didn’t want to kill it” and the guy interjected her saying “the word is ABORTION”</p>
<p>so i instantly thought of…a euphemism</p>
<p>kinda scary and sad when you think about it ><!</p>
<p>or maybe this just hit me now, lol</p>
<p>For the longest time I thought abortion was a word exclusive to baby-killing until I saw “Abort Operation” on a computer error once. It was kinda shocking lol.</p>
<p>“For the longest time I thought abortion was a word exclusive to baby-killing until I saw “Abort Operation” on a computer error once. It was kinda shocking lol.”</p>
<p>That actually made me laugh :)</p>
<p>It’s a euphuism for killing a fetus, whatever that is</p>
<p>(pun intended–though I am pro-choice)</p>
<p>“Would you like to kill your baby now?”
“No, I just want an abortion.”</p>
<p>^^^Haha, wow. It is a euphemism, in it’s own way. </p>
<p>Yeah, I’m pro-choice too.</p>
<p>haha I don’t know if you guys saw that South Park where cartman’s mom goes to an abortion clinic and the lady there asks her how long she’s been pregnant. Cartman’s mom goes “eight years” and pulls out a picture of Cartman. “I just want an abortion!” and the lady is like “uh… it’s illegal to abort eight-year-olds”</p>
<p>sorry, that just popped into my head. i’m pro choice!</p>
<p>It’s a euphemism in the same way that “circumcision” is a euphemism for “genital mutilation.”</p>
<p>what else can you circumcise?</p>
<p>…well i guess if you shaved your head</p>
<p>It just means cut around, so I guess you could circumcise the grass around your driveway hahahaha.</p>
<p>haha i’m gonna go to school and tell people i circumcised my grass last weekend</p>
<p>abstinence is another euphemism!!</p>
<p>^^ LOL!!! You should :]
^ Definitely. That’s weird how there are all these buzzwords that people think of them as only meaning one thing [abortion, abstinence, mayyyybe circumcision haha] but they really don’t.</p>
<p>Btw EatBreathMath I realize some of my last posts have been … aimed to provoke, lol. I’m sorry about that, I’m just having a bad day because I’m supposed to be doing my summer homework since school starts Monday :[ But my lack of stress allows me to come on here and post on CC! Hahha.</p>
<p>“haha i’m gonna go to school and tell people i circumcised my grass last weekend”</p>
<p>HAHA i laughed so hard when i read that…</p>
<p>I knew what “abort” meant before I knew what an abortion was, because I played the 3D Pinball game that came with Windows and if you ran out of fuel at any point your mission would be aborted.</p>
<p>^^me too lol
^and, me too. I remember getting error messages on my computer as a kid which would say “x operation has been aborted”</p>
<p>Ooh, I thought of another one. “Execution” is a euphemism for “state-sanctioned murder.”</p>
