But to keep this on track I do agree, I was told off a while ago for refering to a woman on facebbok on here as a 'cat lady' when I thought it was a reference to the women on there who use cat pictures as dp's and it was made clear it was not allowed yet calling someone a snowflake which is definitely an insult is allowed?

Not having a go but it does seem a tad odd.

It would be nice to have one grown up thread though literally 3 pages in and only 3 people have posted something worthwhile

'Snowflake' is only ever used to wind people up. It's a term of insult, whichever way it's thrown, and it starts pointless arguments.

It's not nice when the shoe's on the other foot and it's used against you, is it?

What I am LOVING about this forum today is that the same people who routinely gloat and bait the night after every final when their favourite wins, are now getting a taste of their own medicine and they don't like it. Perhaps it's a lesson that in future we could ALL do with showing a little more humility and restraint over a television show.

I do actually think Adam has a point though, ironically for the reasons that Livia brought up before using it herself (I think it was a more relevant point 9/10 months ago but better late than never).

What does snowflake mean?

To me it means your special favourite. That's how we use it on The Voice USA anyway

It’s generally used by the wrong wing to describe the left wing bc they view them as overly sensitive or easily offended (bc a snowflake melts easily I guess)
