Awww this is so awesome! I remember when they awkwardly would joke back and forth, hesitant if the other would respond in kind. It’s like the forum is growing up!
To late, but i did use the moisture as lube, and to think this is is the personality you want to avoid. All jokes aside, i am always willing to meet up with regs on this forum so if anyone is in boston let me know.
I once posted a response on a woman-focused blog. It was something about some Obama policy, and I thought I was pretty reasonable. Those harpies ripped into my comment like it was there life mission. Never underestimate the estrogen fueled rage of ideologized left wing females.
Wow just read through this. Someone ban isildurr, he sucks so much and makes the stupidest comments justifying it with other comments he thinks are stupid…which may not actually be stupid. I’ll be in NYC next week, KR?
It’s the weekend and i’m finally done with work and i’m about to bounce. I’ll answer this once then i’m done.
I’d like you to point out the post which i thought was stupid which wasn’t actually stupid. If you pay attention and follow which Mobius couldn’t seem to do you’ll realize it wasn’t the argument about accents which pissed me of. It was the comment which Igor passed ‘I wonder what she smells like’. Considering that’s thrice now the terms been dropped once by you and once by STL i think we can all say openly what it means. If the women in question happened to be any other nationality he wasn’t passing that comment.
The comment wasn’t even particularly witty or clever. It was born out of ignorance and perpetuated by even more of it. He might have meant it as an offhand or one of remark but then why go and talk some more shit’ I was talking about her perfume’. That comment would not be acceptable in a face to face discussion so what makes it acceptable on the internet? If he’s able to say that in real life, fair enough but consider he pussied out even under the mask of anonymity i doubt it.
Also generalizations promote ignorance and are offensive to quite a few people on this planet. You could say grow a thicker skin and you could say i’m too sensitve but guess what? There are tons like me and i’ve managed just fine throughout the world and all the places iv’e been.
Ohai mentioned that generalizations are fine if they are witty or clever, I would say they are provided you are a stand up comedian and everyone in the audience knows what to expect. But to drop a generalization in the middle of any other environment shows a lact of tact and class.
But hey ho, it’s the internet… why so serious bro? Ban me if you wish, i could use my time better.
To be fair, the right wing ideologues (both sexes) on Fox News are hardly any better.
I wonder if women let go more viciously because they are subconsciously less afraid of being at the receiving end of violence. I don’t claim this as a great theory, but maybe a possibiility.
I don’t think you can conclude this until youve moved out of your parents house. You’re coddled bro, thats why you think you have the answer to everything and never once accept anyone elses point of view. If you dont get something, you cry for it and mommy gives it to you. Actually venture out into the world, live alone for some years, then come back and report your findings. Perhaps youll find there is no difference, perhaps youll find there is…we all think it will be the latter. Good luck.
There are several factors. Feminists or progressive minded people tend to be more articulate than their conservative counterparts. Internet users also tend to be young, and young people in general are more liberal than old people. Women also get emotionally invested in arguments. We can read some stupid crap here and forget about it. Women cannot forget…
FYI, Igor (as the name suggests) is Russian, I believe. Not American. But hey, Americans are the fat, stupid, loud racist scapegoats of the world, so please continue talking about how much we suck.
Strange, So instead of actually addressing a few points you picked out the one part which didn’t fit your assumption and made it personal.
Grew up in Botswana with the Africans which is where i get the love of footy, Spent 4 years in a boys hostel in Beirut with the Lebanse which is where i get the temper, Spent 2 years in Nigeria where going to school you’d sometimes see a dead body if the yoruba’s had been rioting with someone else and robbers would hold a gun to your neighbours head so you could see it through the peephole, open the door and take your valuables and yeah been home for the last 8 years and staying with my parents for the last 3 because it’s the first time we’ve actually all been together.
Sure bro, i’m sure i’m coddled and mommys given me everything. Do i feel the need to answer everything? Not particularly. Do i feel the need to address ignorance where it’s not really required? Sure.
And yeah fk you and whatever environment raised you to be such an apathetic ignorant shithead and where generalizations about entire races and countries are considered acceptable . All the best.
I don’t particularly care, but what did I say? I like the dotted Indians just fine (the feathers are trouble after a little firewater). It’s not my fault their homes smell like curry, or their customer service centers are horrible. If I call Time Warner Cable to yell at someone, I want that someone to be American. As an American, I have the right to liberty. Liberty and justice for all. That’s what Superman is all about. And you know what? Batman could kick Superman’s ass in a fight unless we’re talking about the universe where Robin is around. He’d find a way to screw everything up and Superman would probably kill both of them. Either way, the best pizza topping is sausage and mushroom.
