Funny comic but I’m not sure if I enjoy some of the writer’s language:
2000 was a different time. The r word wasn’t exactly in favour even then, but it was in far more common usage.
I can think of a few other terms that are now more often called out than simply tutted at, but for obvious reasons, I’ll not list any.
I can also think of a few choice words I might say about how long ago 2000 was, which might be slightly more acceptable, if colourful, language, but I’ll refrain.
No. 2000 wasn’t that long ago. And the word was recognised as offensive then.
I’ve seen better Cthulhu tracts, but I did like the old man asking for sugar. I’m guessing he’s going home to enjoy a cup of tea.
