I never liked the terms for different reasons - it always had that weird feel like girls were pretending to be soldiers. "Hee-hee, I'm fighting, like a marine!" or some shit - it seemed to shine a light on a weirdly condescending, tunnel-vision type of viewpoint where they simply co-opted someone else just so their…

I hardly ever drive, as I live in actual civilization and rarely need to, but had a job assignment in the middle of nowhere where I had to drive to do anything, so rather than slowly adapting to the culture, it was a shock. I learned to avoid Saturn drivers, people with polished, shiny pickups and anyone with a person…

Yeah, the idea that the Catholic Church in Mexico is apparently portrayed as an oppressed underdog in a black-and-white morality play seems awfully strange. Granted, you hear about American Protestants here imagining their the rebels from Star Wars (for all the terrible things in the prequels, at least there was an…
