Maybe it's because I'm a foreigner; maybe I'm also too disconnected, but I didn't get half of the supposed contentious items listed in this post.
Reading the comments, I was like, 'oh, that's what they meant by...'. The body count really surprised me, and in a negative way. Body count sounds so... tasteless. But who cares. Since I don't use that expression, I'll probably forget it soon (the good side of having a lousy memory).
It is. Definitely not something I'd include under "modern discourse". I'd say a co-worker asking that and using that particular term is the one that's disconnected from the present.
They're drunk playing truth or dare, really doesn't seem that disconnected from the present to me to ask for their body count in that context.
Guess we live and work in different environments. The only place I still see people talking that way and using such excuses for it is in the mandatory sexual harassment training videos.
