Interesting that you said, "disapprove," rather than disagree. :)
In any case, I realize that there are some american-centric items in
there, but they have lots of company.
While putting them in the non-offensive part of the file may not
have been a great decision, I think that now that they ARE in the
offensive section, it's up to people who don't want to be offended not to
use the -o option. If it makes a difference to anyone, I always use the -o
option, and yes, some of the quotes in there alternately irritate and
amuse me. But I know that going in.
I've set followups to -chat, for those that feel compelled to
carry on the meta-discussion.
