 ROFL. Good one.

Anyone whose site says that sort of crap needs a good smack.

Don't get me started on Facebook.  If they don't like your browser, they 
redirect you to theirWe don't support your browser page.  They don't 
even let you try with your unsupported browser, which might well work if 
you're clicking on a link to a particular status update.

My sympathies to you both... I'm baling because I produce a lot of 
testosterone :D


Although, everything I read about having children suggests my estrogen 
is likely at an all time high!

Well said. I agree completely with your distaste for extreme political
correctness. Like I always say, it's not a stereotype if it's true.

  That's hilarious. I love subtle humor like that.

 This whole thread seems to echo the original subject recursively too...
;-)

 How sad this topic has devolved from what was IMHO a fairly honest page
someone created (with valid grievances) to one of religion and name calling.


 I tried to avoid commenting at all but I do have to agree with Tedd here:

 Instead, I think you saw an opportunity to be politically correct
 and rise to the occasion in righteous indignation.

 I personally think Politically Correctness is a load of $h!t and causes
more harm and trouble than it's worth. I'm so sick of it being dictated to
me everywhere from media to schools to work to now even a programming
language list. People need thicker skins. If you are so easily offended,
then block that person's email from your mailbox. It's called the 1st
Amendment. I may not agree with, or even like the things you say, but I'll
defend to the death your right to say it -- whatever it is! I don't agree
with radical Muslims wanting to kill me either, but I'll defend their right
to protest and say whatever they want (as long as it's true!). Same goes for
KKK or any other extremist group.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution

 Ross Perot said it best, every time you pass a new law, you give up some
of your freedoms.
 And this P.C. crap is just an un-official law that is being imposed on
people.

 People aren't visually impaired, they are blind. They're not dwarfs
or little people, they're midgets. A retard is handicapped and isn't
mentally challenged. (there, how many people did I just offend?) DEAL WITH
IT. I have a big nose and I'm balding from Alopecia -- I'm not
olfactory gifted or follicly deficient either. Didn't your mommas ever
teach you, sticks and stones will break my bones, but names can never hurt
me??

 And don’t even get me started on stereotypes -- because those are based
on true observations too! If you don't like your stereotype, then
collectively as a people, you need to change it. we didn’t make up your
stereotype, you did! We just noticed it and pointed it out to you --
you're welcome.
