ALL POSTSVote to unblock piss
<p>No I didn't copy and paste rio's vote shut up
</p><p>So, it's been annoying for me, and others, to have this word blocked, because I can never say that I'm "pissed off," only "ticked off," which really doesn't cut the mustard in some cases. Of course, all inappropriate uses of the word would still not be allowed. Telling someone to "piss off" wouldn't, nor would something like "*pisses on something*". We never have discussions about peeing anyway, so I don't see when this would be an issue. So, basically, I just want this unblocked so "pissed off" can no longer be blocked. I'm sure there are other creative and appropriate uses for it as well. For instance, "piss away" means to waste one's time or resources. And I would also argue that this word is on about the same level as crap, which is unblocked.
</p><p>A - Unblock 17 votes
</p><p>B - Keep blocked 9 votes
</p><p>C - Neutral

<p>This site may be about the MBs, but I have to agree with some users when they say Wikia is meant for people 13+. That does not mean that everyone should swear all the time but you have to be alright with a little bit of language. Also you proved my exact point with "I'm really mad at you right now." That's what people will say to you if you say that. Finally, there's a lot of words that don't have a lot of legitimate uses, but we use them anyway, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
