Lol long acronyms, those absolute gutbusters.

When the **** is like 20 letters long and then you're throwing in A for "allies"... Yeah I think it's kinda silly. Call me crazy.

But is it worth a professional joke from a professional jokesmith on a special (or where ever it was) with limited time unless you were trying to mine laughs from people willing to laugh at the people behind the acronym? I mean an unwieldy acronym isn't really that funny all by itself. It's the culture war behind it where the potential humor lies.

I agree it looks a bit silly and I don't mind anyone making good natured fun of it
those right wing 4chan kids thinking 'LGBTQLMNOP' is the height of comedy are unbearably cringy though. I've never seen a joke about it that's actually really funny

I'm still too busy laughing at the idea of a six letter acronym to call you crazy.

Dunno why me liking Chappelles special still makes you so salty bruh it's been like 2 years

I find it funny and you don't. Can we let this beef die already or are you and bat going to buzz around me every time I mention Chappelle for the rest of eternity???

Happy mother's day, btw.

I think you should let it go. I can't even laugh at a hilarious acronym with you without you bringing up that Chappelle special.

You brougt up the Chappelle bit. Other people were making lighthearted jokes about the A and you started talking about the entire acronym and bringing Chappelle into the mix. You kinda just sound defensive like you know my points are valid so you're going attacked flat earther about it.

I did bring up the Chappelle bit cause it reminded me of it and right on schedule you and frownland popped up to remind me that you still don't approve/don't think it's funny.... As you have done every time either Chappelle, edgy comedy, etc gets brought up since the first little beef over the Chappelle special years ago. It's like a beacon at this point. I know where you stand and have known for 2 years now. I honestly don't know what "valid points" you think I'm avoiding or what more can possibly be said on the topic...


This entire detour should be moved to the RIP musicbanter thread lol

Are you saying that Bat-ILoveNaziPunk-lord finds Dave Chappelle too edgy?

I forgive you for laughing at the bad man, jwb.

Well then... that's settled.

Thank you. That brings me closure.

Seriously though just from a tactical pov I think expanding the acronym endlessly is stupid, the comedian who shall not be named aside.

I mean you're presenting this as if your point is necessarily neutral and therefore it's unfair to call you on it. Pointing out that you're bisexual as if it means that you're necessarily unimpeachable on this subject is extra pussy. I mean being into men and women doesn't mean that you're necessarily not prejudiced against the other letters and that's why you're laughing. You're still perfectly capable of being the Archie Bunker you immortalize with your avatar.

To be clear neo-Nazi punk is entirely too edgy for me. I just enjoy the awfulness. If you personally inhabit that world then I hate you.

Actually I pointed it out not to say I'm unimpeachable but that our perspectives differ in that you are an "ally" who ultimately isn't affected by any of the stereotypes associated where as I am. The only reason some of that **** makes me cringe is cause it's supposed to represent a group I'm a part of. Never once claimed or implied I was neutral, pal.

I mean come on you're using it to give weight to your position to preempt criticism. Otherwise you wouldn't have said it.

I thought I just made myself clear. I'm using it to convey to you I feel like I have some actual skin in the game. What's hard to understand about that?

You're literally saying the exact same thing I am but in a less honest way cause you aren't admitting that the skin you have in the game doesn't preclude you from being ****ty to alphabet soup people who aren't gay or bi.

Alexa, activate my identity politics shield

I never said it did. I was clarifying why I made that distinction because you seem to think I was trying to play it neutral where really I'm trying to convey to you exactly where my bias comes from. It seems like you're not even trying to understand what I'm saying you just want a debate win.

I think you assume you know my perspective and why I approach it the way I do but tbh based on your posts I don't think you have the slightest clue.

No I do get your point and I don't think you're attacking anyone to dunk on them but I also think you identify more with comics who do tend to dunk on cultural liberal **** than you do with actual cultural liberal ****. So bi or not you identify more with the kind of person who scoffs at ideas your bi sensibilities would otherwise side with.

You didn't seem to get it at all you kept saying I'm just using it as armor to deflect any criticism. If you understand so well pls tell me why it is I have issues with certain optical aspects of the lgbtq...+ movement.

lol @ my bi sensibilities

I got some bi sensibilities for ya right here

But seriously terms like that only highlight my point. You assume you can speak for my "bi side" better than I can and it's only cause you're ingesting the pop culture that makes knowledge and having pre designed stances on this issue a basic requirement for engaging with society. It's all detached and theoretical to you. Blue vs red. And the salt in the wound is that 90% of the current woke scolds would've been homophobes 30 years ago. Now that it's the popular stance everyone is enthusiastic about it. It's phony af and there's no sincerity about it. It's as enlightened as liking beanie babies was in 1999. Too buzzed for this discussion though bruh I'm going back to watching Fargo.

Considering the opinions I've seen you float about certain letters in the alphabet soup I know full well you have nothing but theoretical opinions about much of this **** so suck my dick, you self righteous **** Trump voter.

what certain opinions? You have a valid point I'm dodging, right? Try actually saying something specific.

Trans people are just crazy pants?

I mean yeah I definitely only have a theoretical understanding of trans... My views on that have evolved somewhat... But I wasn't saying I understand trans better than you I just found it kinda patronizing that you presume you could diagnose the supposed dissonance between my taste in comedy and my "bi sensibilities"

Can I call bi people half-breeders? Did I just invent a new hate slur?

Edit: Nope, that was a slur that already existed. So I shouldn't use it.

Nobody should judge people in my view..we are what we are..to hell with others views....

So throw out the whole judicial system then? Can no longer judge murderers or pedophiles?

:bowdown:Excuse me, I am a believer of an eye for an eye a tooth for a tooth when it comes to crime..... I was adding to the sexual preferences...I am straight and female, fine for me but other people are not necessarily in that vein,,so as I said we are what we are.. Talk about Hyde Park Corner Speakers, get you Moosh.....:wavey:

Eye for an eye.... That means that to deal justice to pedophiles we have to invent time travel so we can go back in time and rape them when they were a kid... That the kinda world you wanna live in Dianne???

It's the only way, JWB.

When you run into The Batlord's 3+ years posts and realize he used to be a pretty normal, even constructive poster. That darn alcohol. It just gets to ya.

**** that nerd and I've been on the sauce for longer than three years, bud.

Your interpretation is your business, just don't go putting words into my mouth.....ask a question is fine twist my views..dont do it, moosh...,

I've ran into some prime vintage Batlord posts. He used to be much more radical.

once again the reference was regarding sexual preferences. I was not changing the subject that people were talking about at the time....I was talking about our sexuality... not the judicial system regarding murders etc. How can you not see that fact....

Yah but after a while it turns you from a fun uncle into a bitter, angry old man, which is what we're witnessing right now. It's either that or too many years at BK. Or a combination of the two.

Either way it's a pretty marked change in tone. Too bad I wasn't around for the other Charles. He seemed fun. :/

Did you used to be fun too?
