    Jeez. It’s just a link to just a site. What is the problem with that url? If it’s share-worthy, just share. If people don’t click it because of “bUt iTs nOt a .CoM!” screw them, bad luck for them. People need to study and pay a lot to be allowed to drive a car, but any technically challenged dildo can use the interwebz without the slightest clue about anything, and is also allowed to voice an opinion about it.

        Doesn’t change my point. Even worse. How could anyone be hurt in their feelz by that harmless word? If that already hurts them, this world will be no fun place for them to exist

          Uhh… My friend. They said it was a work chat. Regardless of your opinion if swearing I think you should understand that work places are generally more conservative with regards to swear words.

      When you grow up you’ll realize that sometimes you need to consider the attitudes and feelings of others rather than just “fuck 'em”.

        If someone’s feelings are hurt by a silly url, it’s me that should grow up? We’re not talking about trigger-urls like r*pe-is-fun.org or similar.

        I have not met a single person since the beginning of the internet that would have his/her feelz hurt by sh.itjust.works.

          Yes. It’s you who should realize that other people’s perspectives, thoughts, opinions, etc. matter. It’s something one typically learns as they grow into adulthood.
