I think it's hilarious. There's no hope for this guy. Hopefully music will move on without Migos. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skabi 3,096 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 i dont care about his apology, i don't care about many of the celebs apologies to be quiet honest. the thing is many times celebs do some really wrong stuff when its obvious that they will cause trouble and then they'll post a selfless and formal apology on instagram. it goes way deeper than a post on a social media which your manager probably wrote. sometimes its about common sense, i mean he tries to say that it didnt even cross his mind that the word "queer" also refers to the lgbt community?

babs 5,093 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 That's really a weak ass apology if I've ever seen one lmao We didn't understand YOUR meaning of a word that in today's society everyone knows is related to LGBT people and then you try to turn it into us because we didn't f*ck with a dictionary? Piss off. He ain't sorry. And now we're gonna have to deal with a bunch of weak influenceable kids who are culturally insensitive saying they don't vibe with us. No sympathy for this fool.

Close but not too similar. Queer has had other meaning before, N word has had one. Not defending him but to me the N word is more related to the F word for gay people. Migos won’t be around forever anyway, I’m sure they will fizzle away sooner or later. There sound is already so 2015-2017 May I Read You? 😎 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

skaxboy 5,329 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Here’s what I find ironic: he says he didn’t mean queer as in “gay” or referring to sexuality, he says he meant queer as in “weird, strange, odd.” Well from the looks of it, Offset has a queer look to him. His flamboyant jackets, his crazy hair styles, they aren’t normally seen on the status quo. So one could argue Offset is “queer” in the way that punks and goths are. Therefore Offset doesn’t vibe with himself or his Migo’s peers. I know I’m reaching, but this is a total BS apology. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrawberryBlond 14,776 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Did he seriously think he could weasel his way out of this? His attempts at covering his tracks make no sense. I've not used the word "queer" to mean "strange" for years ever since it became a standard gay slur in case anyone took it the wrong way. But there was no way he was using it in that way because people who stalk you are not called queers. He knows what he means, we know what he means. We're not stupid and we don't like to be treated as if we are. 5 hours ago, DiscoHeaven23 said: That would be like saying, I don't vibe with f*gs and then being like "NOOO, i meant a bundle sticks!!!!!!!!!!!!!" we see you Offset. Also, as "fag" means "cigarette" in the UK, you could say "I meant I was anti smoking!" but we all know that wouldn't fly. Why he thought his excuse would wash is beyond me.

I've always heard it use like that when reading texts in class Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sipthistea 21,099 Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 This whole social media controversy/apology thing is just funny. Someone makes a mistake (intentionally or not intentionally), * people get mad and offended *, then they apologize (even of they don't really feel sorry about it). And the cycle repeats everyday. Just what happened to this guy who went to Japan and started to behave like an assh***, then when he realized he got in hot water, he "apologized". I don't know what's more offensive, their nasty behaviour or their hypocrisy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
