    Oh, good, the third Sexism thread has descended into arguing about academic language, definitions, and "oh my, I don't know, if you use these terms and someone doesn't understand them whatever will we do" bull-oh-knee.

    I for one am shocked and appalled.

    it has been totally identical to the other sexism thread (and should have been locked) since that fucking Rob Leifield captain america pic was posted. And that was many pages ago.

    Same people posting in both. About the same things. Often using the exact same text.

    What you think "makes sense" has nothing to do with reality. It just has to do with your life experience. And your life experience may only be a small smidgen of reality. Possibly even a distorted account of reality at that. So what this means is that, beginning in the 20th century as our means of decoding nature became more and more powerful, we started realizing our common sense is no longer a tool to pass judgment on whether or not a scientific theory is correct. - Neil Degrasse Tyson

    not just bigger than their boobs, but bigger than them

    that's silly. people like what they like. it doesn't mean the reviews they offer are going to be dishonest or misleading. otherwise positive reviews wouldn't exist- or wouldn't ever be credible.

    My cat will full on eat plenty of stuff.

    He will eat gorgonzola cheese.

    At that same party I took another relatively fancy cheese, and broke a piece off. He was lying across my shoulders like a snake around a neck. He would accept and eat cheese I handed to him then.

    This makes sense because any pet of mine that doesn't eat cheese will get disowned so hard.

    operation names are supposed to have nothing to do with what they're actually about

    nazi germany was pretty bad at this and british intelligence correctly guessed what a project was based on it's codename

    (you named this project after a one-eyed god of wisdom?

    why it cannot possibly be a single beam navigation system)

    Most of the stuff my news ticker is pull up is going to be partisan one way or another(msnbc, Washington Post, CNN and Fox). I do have one from CSM but it isn't really information rich after reading through it. Sorry SIG.

    This isn't what I am saying. In [chat] most discussions on certain products are not reviews but fanboys verse haters. You can have honest reviews on things that are positive. They point out the good and the bad. They say, "These are the issues with the product that its competitors are better at or I had while using it..." and "These negatives didn't over shadow the good things with the product." Rarely do you find a review of this stuff in [chat] that list both the good and bad.

    I'm sure the Jerry Sandusky trial was a really tough deliberation.

    That's the most sarcastic sentence I've ever said.

    I'm a published writer and have a very unique and interesting writing style. I'm also sharp and witty. My profile is well-written and hilarious. My messages are likewise brilliant. And I've been doing this stuff for...four or five years. I know what "works" in terms of good internet dating writing. "Works" in the sense of leading to a "date" with a human female.

    I heard it was just sad. The only thing the defense could try to do was say maybe all 10+ of these boys were liars who wanted fame.

    Usually when you rent you don't specify a particular vehicle but a class.

    (I have had to deal with indignant people who drive BMWs and refuse to accept the Merc they are being offered by a rental branch)

    Do normal people still send personal e-mails or does everyone just use texting, social networking, and instant messaging to communicate?

    I prefer e-mail since it lets me mull things over and write longer and more thoughtful responses, but nobody else seems to agree.

    well, it's rare to see any review in chat- people are computer nerds who buy what they like. of the reviews i have seen, i disagree with your assertion that they're overwhelmingly slanted.

    i'm pretty sure a bunch of chatters are adult enough to honestly evaluate the things they like and dislike about stuff.

    That's the most sarcastic sentence I've ever said.

    they went out to deliberate earlier today

    the defense is that the accusers are seeking fame and money and worked together

    (some of them do have lawsuits, but not all )

    the other part of the defense is that all his friends think he is a cool guy

    NO.

    I still send emails but then I don't tweet. I also got bored of trying to keep track of what IM system people were using so don't really do that either.

    I wouldn't put any kind of personal communication on facebook because I don't trust it.

    I use email over group texts. group texts still suck.
