Thanks, I'll try. I've already picked up some bad habits from them and some on my own but I try to improve every day.

Yelling isn't going to teach me anything. If anything, I would learn if my mom told me where she stands on this calmly and put forth proper reasoning and arguments. In fact, the reason why I put this up was to get multiple points of view from other people on the internet. We're all anonymous here, more or less, so people won't shy away from saying what they really think and I appreciate that. I don't seek approval, I seek debates with reasonable people. Maybe someone here would've told me that I'm wrong and say good reasons why, and I would actually change my opinion. That's how it works. You can't makeup for bad content of your speech by making it louder.

@garlog Yeah...my mom can be moody sometimes.
@yozogoggo Thanks... Yeah, I would only give money to a charity I had previously researched, because there are some charities out there that keep most of what they're given for their higher-ups.

In the last panel it looks like he's giving himself a thumbs up for that joke. I'd probably do the same in that situation.

These are actually correct, although the Lincoln one is taken out of context. He also said that if he could save the Union by freeing all the slaves, he would do it. Also if he freed only some slaves he would do it. The point is he wanted to save the Union, the slaves were an optional side quest.

People who would legit kick out a dog because she's not "pure breed" make me sick. There are so many lovely dogs in shelters but so many people would rather get a pure breed. Not to mention that because of this inbreeding/selective breeding, many breeds have big health issues. Just look at pugs for chrissakes. Poor things can't even breathe properly.

Wasn't Irma a character in an animated show about teenage magical girls? W.I.T.C.H. I think? I'm only bringing this up because those are the only two occasions when I heard the name Irma.

I get that and I told them that I'm cool with paying rent and food but they said that I should focus on school without caring about money. Which is actually very nice of them, but that's why it seemed so weird that they would get their panties in a bunch over 20 bucks. And again, it was 20 bucks over the course of a half year. I hate shopping and I just don't buy stuff for myself very often because I don't need much so its not like I'm spending half my pay on charity, it was just 20 goddamn dollars.

Ok, storytime. In March, when I started regularly earning money (I'm also in college so the job is part time), I implemented a new policy on my life. I said to myself that I wouldn't spend that money on useless shit, and the way to really check myself is that whenever I buy something that I don't need (e.g. clothes that I bought just because they look nice, electronics...) I would give the same amount of money to charity. As you can see it worked because the only non vital thing I bought since then were headphones that were 80% off. Thus those $20. The charity would be one of my choice, and for my first time I chose UNICEF. My mom didn't only disapprove of the charity itself because "African people don't work and only want charity money, those moochers" but of the policy itself, saying I'm crazy and that I'll just lose all my hard earned money. I told her I only spent $20 bucks per a half year, but she still said I'm an idiot for doing this.

I have a job, it was my own money. I'm glad you're seeing the situation from multiple angles though, not everybody has the ability to doubt others' words without sounding accusatory.

Truer words were never spoken. These stereotypes just need to die.

I'm not bashing people for believing in stuff, I'm bashing them for mutilating their children for no other reason than their religion.
Also, to your other point about how people believed it to be healthy – that they used to believe it is excusable but as of now we have enough evidence to say that there are no health benefits (the stuff that circumcision can possibly prevent can also be prevented with good hygiene) however circumcision is still being done today. I can excuse ignorance when there isn't enough valid evidence, but right now there is, and people not caring enough to look it up and mutilating their children is inexcusable.

So in your eyes traps are more suitable than people who've gone through a sex change?
Hmm 17 comments
ewqua · 6 years ago
That's right, a sex change is a choice made by an adult individual that will influence only this individual's life. Circumcision is a harmful religious practice inflicted on small children by their backwards parents.

So you wouldn't date a circumcised man if you were a woman?

I would totally date a trans dude. So what if he used to be a woman, he's a man now. This shit is ridiculous. There are people with more plastic surgeries than a person who went through a sex change (*coughs* Kylie Jenner *coughs*), would you refuse them too because they got themselves bigger tits and a smaller nose?

Don't get me wrong, I hate nagging people as much as anyone else, but the wording of this just really rubs me the wrong way.

"Never ever criticize a man, if he didn't have those little flaws, he wouldn't be spending time with your sorry ass." Am I the only one who sees this as extremely one sided and sexist? Especially how the word better is underlined, like are you saying that I'm my boyfriend's/husband's back up plan and he would've chosen someone "better" if he could? And how exactly do you grade a person's worth? How do you decide who's better? Looks, wealth, personality? Everyone is into different stuff, there's no objective "better" here.
Edit: Also why is every word capitalized? Was this written by Jaden Smith?

Dude, nobody's saying that. But many people use that stereotype as a joke, just like many other people use the "college kid = useless SJW who needs a safe space" stereotype. Neither stereotype is true but imo using stereotypes as a joke isn't inherently a bad thing.

I don't have sensitive teeth. Bow before me, peasants!
Seriously though, is it really considered that weird to bite ice cream? I even chomp on ice when there's some left in my soda.

Sansa is still a little bitch in the books though, can't wait until she gets badass, not necessarily like in the show but just... less prissy than she is at this point in the books
