I have a different sense of humor. As for the references, you are right. I have no idea what it is supposed to refer to.

Yes, it does. Typing out "bad" words and then substituting in filler characters to self-censor makes you look immature. If you're going to swear, then swear.

I have a different sense of humor. As for the references, you are right. I have no idea what it is supposed to refer to.

Protips:

1) If you're going to "bleep" out letters like a 9-year-old who is scared of being caught using a swear, don't turn around and whine about it if most people respond to you like you're a 9-year-old.

2) If you don't understand something, try asking. You'll look a lot less silly.

3) Everyone has a "different" sense of humor. Being unable to recognize when someone is being serious versus not being serious is an entirely different issue.

4) Go watch A Few Good Men.

2) Um i did ?
3) Assuming i can't tell or was being serious myself ?
4) That is just about the "you can't handle the truth" part. Anyway already seen it.

Oh and, if humor was your intention maybe, try being actually funny next time, eh ?

You want the truth from me?

You can't handle the truth.

Son, we live in a world where all vagina-bearing individuals have different interests and opinions, and those interests and opinions have to be suppressed by unceasing sexist pressure to conform. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lieutenant Nice Guy?

I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for the girl who inexplicably wears shoes that make her limp with pain, and you curse the way that all women think they must wait for you to make the first move. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know, that these bullshit behaviors, while irritating as shit, are necessary to maintain the arbitrary sexist divisions between dudes and chicks. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves you time! You don't want the truth, because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me creating cookie-cutter females. You need me creating cookie-cutter females.

We use instruction manuals like "Maxim", "Cosmo", "MTV". We use this popular culture as the backbone of a life spent defending a status quo. You use them as lining for your bird's cage. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very conformity that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it! I would rather you just said "thank you", and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up your phone, and talk to a goddamn woman yourself.

Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.

Have you considered printing this out and framing it?

I thought her whole schtick was pongnient and at least chuckle-worthy. But then again that's because Hurricane Bottle hasn't touched down upon me yet.


Wherereas your mass quotation here:
viewtopic.php?p=16043539#p16043539

Was a bit vague let's say. Not that the "ehmergerd sex is so badz" needed a severe popping, but come on, at least Bottle was on point. And truthful. I mean.. when's the last time anyone here looked at a WNBA player and went "Mmmm, I'd like her to carry my child, she's got superior physical traits", broadly speaking anyway?

not necessarily, if they clean you up and take you home, then answer the pone when you call to apologize. that girl is the keeper.
The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

This is fun!

1) Nope!

2) Yes, you very obviously failed to understand something (and you've admitted as much).

2b) I won't speak for anybody else, but I think it was delightfully silly the way you mistook a famous movie reference for "over-dramatic bit*hing."

3) You said you couldn't tell. If you really want to try the whole "I totally knew that, I was joking too!" thing, I mean, you go right ahead and try...

4) Actually the entire post is a direct modification of the whole speech. Maybe watch it again?

Thanks for your helpful advice on how to be funny, though, I'll be sure to make my future work f*ck*ng h*lari*us just for you.

Even I, with my history of shame and embarassment regarding girls have found the courage to actually ask them.

Do the same, though not expect much honesty.

False. My friend Matt barfed on me, and we're still friends years hence. My current partner has barfed near me multiple times, and I'm sure there was spatter on at least a few occasions. My baby brother has barfed on me at least two dozen times, and I still (mostly) like him.

Now, I'm not saying you should go out of your way to puke on someone, just sayin' that context is key. WHY you barf on them, and how you behave afterwards, is important.
