Be weary because what you say may be seem harmless and conventional when you post it, but it could become unacceptable in the future.

Also, think of the things you said 20 years ago, and measure them using today's sensitivity gauge. There is likely something you said long ago that is totally taboo today!
A little off-topic tip, but in case English is your second language, you mean "wary" instead of "weary". For some reason this mistake is getting more and more common:
weary: feeling or showing tiredness, especially as a result of excessive exertion or lack of sleep.
wary: feeling or showing caution about possible dangers or problems.

Huh, I learned something new today. For some reason I never registered weary/wary as two different words. I associated both spellings and pronunciations with the same general concept. Kind of like gray/grey. I'm actually a native speaker and your comment is great because now I'm wondering about what other words I'm using incorrectly.
