Careful, pansies everywhere will be offnded, and folks who are not pansies but are regularly framed as such will definitely be offended.
Of course, those agreeing with McClurkin will see the validity of offending pansises..
... it does digress .... and it's not even pansy season, they are a cooler weather flower, anyway.
The Federation? "Oooh, we can't interfere, the primary directive, live long and propser!" Pfft. Give me a break. And all the aliens are greener versions of humans with pointy ears or somesuch thing.
(by the way, ems, if you still can't spot the snark of the original poster, we're talking of the Federation of Star Trek fame... though this was pretty funny. ;)
No man, I got it, trust me.
I'm just trying to subtly let you know that some folks who march to a different drummer won't take well to hearing the 'pansies' slur slung about at anyone, not even Trekkies.
I know you got that too. Now I have to go and see some of my good friends who usually have some type of events historically in June where rainbows and marches and leather, high heels and lame, girls and guys on motorycles and college kids who have moved far from home to keep from embarassing the family all come together in one place.
Peace out.
