Big Brother 9's Adam Refers to Housemate Joshuah as a "Faggot"
Big Brother's bigoted bigmouth Adam Jasinski scored another one for the losers last night when he referred to gay contestant Joshuah on the live feeds as a "faggot" who should "go back to the gay bar."
Previous remarks by Adam, in which he referred to autistic children as "retards", prompted Loews to pull its advertising from the show as well as demands from Autism United that Adam be terminated immediately and the show be canceled.
We'll see if the gay slur makes it to broadcast.

If you guys could just step down off your high and mighty pedestals for just a moment, maybe you'd realize that people often say things that they don't really mean. I'd like to know how many of you really haven't ever used the word "retard" or said something is "retarded"? Every single person has at one time or another has used language that could be construed as offensive to others. Let's be real here people! Please, step down off your moral high grounds and join the rest of us commoners in the plains.

I think there is way to much cussing done on the show. Last night 'Ryan used the f word 15 to 20 times in one small sentence, or paragraph. That is a bit much. I can understand them wanting to have fun but no need to use the awful word every other time when a word comes out of your mouth. The Bible is not working very well for them, maybe they need to spend more time reading it.

I concur ...but in spite of abuses on reality television...I enjoy seeing the genuine catharsis of some of the participants, and there usually is a little bit of redemption with their peer networks in some small way. Even though they don't actually recognize their own superior precocious aesthetic, the situations that arise can be pretty revealing about ephemeral norms and morays that we assume about within the larger context of society. To reiterate, then like milk and honey from heaven, some one experiences and in depth catharsis...and it is that catharsis where we learn to adjust, adapt and see a greater intuitive extended network of a fraternity of a society of friends.
