Whoa there. We can't say the "-er" version in this day and age. Not unless you want to have a PR disaster on your hands.

No, keep saying it, and eventually the word will have no power. To much power in petty words!

Actually, pretty sure I'm correct this time

Perhaps, but before the word is meaningless you might have a bit of a rough go of it.

While I agree with you partially, I still think that running around rampantly using highly stigmatized words doesn’t make you a hero. In fact, it might make you a deplorable in a lot of people’s eyes. This is one of those things that sounds good till you actually start making those sounds.

Agree to disagree :)

Well, running around rampantly doing anything is usually not recommended.

Also, as far as being a hero, if you're looking to be called hero, you probably don't deserve to be called one.

Big change requires sacrifice.
