you misunderstand me. i'm really not offended at all. i just don't like the sound of 'apostate'. i'm not offended by it.

Zhanteimi 06-20-2016 06:52 PM

Do you like the sound of the word "strawberry"?

kibbeh 06-20-2016 06:52 PM

yes. i do.

Zhanteimi 06-20-2016 06:53 PM

Okay. Adding "strawberry" to the safe-word list.

Wait. Speaking of safe words...how kinky are you, gayboy? Do you use safewords?

kibbeh 06-20-2016 06:56 PM

i had to google 'safeword' and no, i don't have a safeword.

Zhanteimi 06-20-2016 06:57 PM

You always joke about kink, but you're not kinky? Got it.

kibbeh 06-20-2016 06:58 PM

i'm the king of kink.

Zhanteimi 06-20-2016 07:11 PM

That's what non-kinky people say.

Blank. 06-20-2016 07:43 PM

Is kinky holding your girlfriends arms down while she calls herself a whore? Cause if so... I'm a real kinky ****er!

Zhanteimi 06-20-2016 07:56 PM

Kinky is subjective, so only you can answer that. :)

actually i'm NOT surprised to see this. what pisses me off is whenever a muslim does ANYTHING he did it because hes a muslim... but if its a non-muslim then NO. religion had absolutely NOTHING to do with it.... hypocrites. if i went to america and decided to kill someone i'd be labelled an ISLAMIC TERRORIST because of my name and its bull****.

Can you blame us? I'm sure there are murders committed by muslims and people of Middle Eastern descent in the West that don't go reported because they were clearly not politically or religiously motivated, but the ones that do generally have a link to their religious beliefs or affiliations. And we have a history of such crimes which are explicitly terrorist actions.

So when a supposedly super-religious guy shoots up a gay bar, seemingly just cause they're gay, it makes us think "Terrorist!". Granted, when a white person does it it's just called a hate crime, but I can't think of any white-on-gay violence that involved a mass shooting, just a fatal beatdown in an alley or something.

But people who bomb abortion clinics are definitely called terrorists, though "Christian" is generally not tacked on. Probably because we're a nation of Christians and don't really like the thought of sounding like we're disparaging our (not mine) religion. I imagine it's much the same in muslim countries, in that they call an Islamic terrorist just a terrorist without adding muslim or Islamic to the front.

Is it a cultural thing? Like how if a Catholic called a Protestant a heretic they might not take it well, even though it would be accurate from the Catholic's POV? Not saying it's about a Christian calling you an apostate, just using that as an example.

Can we actually talk about the fact that this woman was murdered and it has nothing to do with Arabs,or Muslims.
It has to do with England and the E.U.

Zhanteimi 06-21-2016 03:03 PM

They're protesting against education reform? The reform must be quite regressive if it leads them to create human blockades.

Frownland 06-21-2016 03:08 PM

The new regulations change how the teachers are evaluated or something like that, I'm having a hard time finding anything about why they're protesting. Two teacher's union leaders were also arrested for political reasons under the guise of embezzlement charges (according to the teachers, that is), so I think that was a major thing that set it off too.

The Batlord 06-21-2016 03:14 PM

Considering how ****ty many of my teachers were in high school I think they could do with firing a few.

Many of us don't speak Mexican sorry

You live in California. I live in Virginia. Pretty different standards as far as linguistic variation is concerned.

Zhanteimi 06-21-2016 05:51 PM

^Where in Virginia?

Near Virginia Beach. On the coast, at the south eastern part of the state.

Zhanteimi 06-21-2016 06:31 PM

My two oldest girls are moving to Virginia next month, but not near you. Thank Christ! ;)

It's called "black magic". You don't throw the the fart, you just hold it under someone's nose and open your hand.
