"And before you jump to the standby excuse that you were "just making a joke" or "having a laugh," let the men amongst our number preemptively respond: You are not funny. You are not clever. And you are not excused. Perhaps the phrase "boys will be boys"—inevitably uttered wherever misogyny is present—is relevant."

The only way to fight back at this point is to make dumb, tired jokes whenever any man accomplishes anything. Here's me from now on: "That male fighter pilot will probably get lost because he won't stop and ask for directions. Hyuk yuk yuk."

I second that "suck it" because I, too, completely rock parallel parking. I perfected how to do it when driving for an upscale airport transport service, consequently, I nearly always hit it perfect the first time. I've parallel-parked a limo. I've parallel-parked a moving van. Kiss my supposedly-no-ability-to-park

But there's a military expression "boots on the ground" and she's a lady, so booooobs. It took all their self control to keep themselves from simply blurting out, "Vagina!" when they came to this story, I'm sure.

I have to say, Gutfeld and Bolling's comments made a lot more sense to me after I did an image search for them:

You are not funny. You are not clever. And you are not excused.

Sounds like what passes for humor to most bigots. "Hey I referenced this thing women/black people/gays do/have, isn't that funny? " Actual jokes require an awareness of context and situation to produce something witty and clever. For example: The only "boobs on the ground" are Gutfeld and Bolling who would probably

Totally beside the point, but this parking joke needs to die. A running joke in my family is to name our "less-than-super superpower." For example, my dad's is the ability to sleep anywhere at any time, especially on airplanes. My mom's is her parallel parking ability - which she passed on to me. And I learned to do

I can't believe people still try to pretend that Fox is an actual news station. They're a fucking joke.

Yeah, I didn't even get how he would think it was funny. Plus, guess what guys?! Women can't park! Get it?!

Yeah but she's not white. /s

It's even funnier that (as Jon Stewart pointed out on TDS) in the same damn show, he got all faux outraged at OBUMMER for the latte salute because it was 'disrespectful' to our men and women in uniform.

Ignoring them just gives them free rein. I wish people would give up the idea that ignoring works in anything but very specific circumstances. Most of the time, to let something be unopposed is to give permission to it.

It's pretty offensive to the UAE too. They're our ally and our pundits are treating their accomplishments like this? It's offensive on so many levels.

I'm more interested in having Claire's beautiful glowing pale skin. But not in a creepy way.

friends don't let friends mix plaids. That said, see if there's a "hunting" version of your tartan. They're usually much more subdued and...tasteful.

I'm 1/8th Mackenzie, so that pretty much makes me a character in the book, right?

Piss. You mean they're going to be doing French fashion too (I'm only about half through the first book)?! I need all the money damnit. All. of. it.
