You could make a racism bingo card and come up with prizes for yourself, like fleeing to make a coffee run every time you get bingo (maybe decaf, though, or that could lead to heart explosions).

It's sooooo hard not to respond. They're like fish in a barrel wearing targets and begging to be shot.

Yep, it's not at all sexist to have her entire life consist of looking after a man who saves the world a lot. And "mother" is the most important job that a woman can have, because mothers raise the boys who will grow up to run the world and make progress in art and science.

I'm having trouble thinking of anyone young enough. Amy Acker *looks* younger than she is, so she could probably pull it off, but no one else springs to mind.

Yep. I already strongly dislike this movie just because every time I see a headline about it, I get excited and then very, very disappointed.

My first thought was, "are that many people still on dial-up?"

I have the same reaction to him. Like, wow, that is a very handsome dude. I know it objectively, and yet I have zero reaction to him in my pants region. I feel the same way about Superman, actually. Like, I know he's all super-powered and heroic etc, but I just find him kinda handsome and boring.

You're not the only one! I think people are maybe confused about what you/we are seeing, because the resemblance is less in the bone structure and more in the expressions. They pull a lot of similar faces when they act, but I guess it's less obvious in still photos.

I got one last night (from a 42% match, too. Dude, why?) that used ellipses as periods. And not even real ellipses; they were double periods. The whole message was, "hey.. im [name].. im 26 i like ur profile.. and i think its great u teach" [sic, sic, siccity sic.]

It doesn't take a nucular scientist to pronounce "foilage."

Yeah, there are definitely lots of burb-bros, but the city itself is too blue-collar for that.

Haha, perfect.

I blame generations of parents and teachers correcting kids who say, "Jack and me want ice cream" to "Jack and I" without ever teaching them when "I" is used vs. when "me" is used. This is seriously the best argument I know against "because I said so" parenting.*

Good point! My ladybrain is overloading with conflicting imperatives; I must get me to a fainting couch!

Yeah, but how's your living space? I hear it's kind of a trade-off.

It would explain an awful lot if it turned out that all male organs were designed to be useful for both food and sex purposes.

I'm all for it, but I think you'll have to wait for the next meeting to bring it up. What do Robert's Rules have to say about the introduction of cheese amendments?

I'm particularly fond of the rhetorical hoops some of them jump through so as not to seem to be saying what they are obviously saying: "Not saying that jobs should fall under gender roles,just saying certain jobs work better when lead by a particular sex." Also, not saying that it's raining, just saying certain water…

RT @luisb21_: Not to be sexist but NEVER ask girls for directions. They'll get you as far away from your destination as possible

You win.
