Yeah, in the same style as someone hurting themselves.

Yup, you need five to summon Captain PWN!!1!-ET.

And I have the power of pointless anger and general bitterness.

So you are jealous! You're jealous that I get to summon Captain PWN and you don't!

Yes, very bitter. Like a good cup of coffee.

Aww, I'm sorry. I'll see what I can do about making you the fifth, because your power does make for good times with captain PWN, but the others are rather loud and I'm not sure if anyone will hear me.

Obviously, Captain Pwn's fifth would be the rant-til-you're-blue-in-the-face person.

What would my near infinite bitterness and hatred be then? Some sort of pollution in the world of friendly internet debate?

Heh, this thread reminds me of my race class and gender class I took in college. It was a giant waste of time. Just like this thread. I'd quote the "care-o-meter" that was on the second page or so, but I don't feel like getting it.

Seriously Ameri, go do something productive.



I just finished two paintings...I'd call that productive.

Of for the love of Mary and Joseph.

Please, for the sake of my sanity, learn to read before you get your elitist panties in a bunch. Just because "gender" and "sex" can be synonyms doesn't mean they mutually define eachother. Claiming, once again, that I support sexual discrimination through the use of a word that harbors no negative connotation nor has historically been used to persecute a group of people is a baseless argument. You obviously have strong opinions about the number of gender roles our society deems acceptable, but that does not, by any stretch of the imagination, mean that people who go by the dictionary definition of a the word "gender" and use it to define their sex are persecuting you or me or anyone else.

If I go outside and yell "my gender is female" no one is going to tell me I should be pregnant and in the kitchen. That's just a figment of your odd imagination.

It amazes me that you seem so open minded about the ideas of gender and sexuality, but are so insufferably close minded about language and the opinions of others.

What would you prefer I call you? It? Shim? She-male? Or are you done nitpicking? If you haven't stated that you are male or female, then it is entirely irrelevent what people call you.


No no no, you don't get to call me anything in the way of he or she, because you don't know my sex. I told you my gender, but thats not the same thing...the definition you are using for gender does not work.


Edit: I just drank a Sapporo...when the hell is WWE going to be on!?!

I will hereby refer to you as "it," because I would not want to offend you, and xe is far less acceptable as an English word than using sex and gender interchangeably.
