Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
Stars... That sucks.
Perhaps tis for the best? It's possible that distance will allow change without witness, so when she sees you again and realizes, male or female, you're still you, she will come around? Perhaps even just a friend who cares is worthwhile.
>_> guilty...
It's a matter of picking your battles. There were also rumors o the Irish - or at least Irish Americans - switching sides before a fight so both sides were even. He who rails against the world has no friends. A psychopath with discernment, there's a force to reckon.
That would explain the vest, then.
Relax, and enjoy

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
Well, I imagine that's a different sort of rejection than this and one arrived at later in life than what was being discussed. To reject as other one's own mother is different from being the victim of physical abuse or realizing that one was raised by a caricature of a lawyer or anything between those two throwaway poles.
If you're talking about those with maternal issues being viewed as inhuman, you're preaching to the choir here, as that's merely my observation of how I've been viewed as a figure of horror and depravity for the rocky relationship I've had with my own mother.

@Zorg
*hugs*
That is awful, but like Siuis said, it may be good for both of you to get a little time to se how things go, what will change and what won't. I do hope you two can stay friends at least. I'm so jealous of yourboobsshoes by the way.
The whole Irish discrimination thing iskind of funny from a modern viewpoint, seeing as the U.S. basically has a festival where everyone pretends to be offensively stereotypically Irish, but in a fun rather than mocking way (in general) and at least where I am, that also becomes an annual festival of "What miniscule fraction of Irish blood do I have?"This Minase Iori avatar is a masterwork by Qwernt

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
Depends on when the one under discussion was theoretically arrived at, I suppose. But yes, I can see how if that was the exact meaning it would probably be correct.
And I wasn't, exactly, though that's certainly something I have issues with as well, since that's happened to the aforementioned close friend as well. I'm not sure of the extent of it in your case (nor am I going to ask unless you feel like volunteering), so I'm not going to try to compare them, but... Yes. Not good at all, and very hard to get around, since giving the reasons for the problems tends to be seen as more proof that you're a terrible person.

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
Let's be honest. I think everyone is a touch jealous.
SpoilerI mean, that outfit is nice. The pinkish trim sells it.

Still, my forte take was the beer commercial with an Irishman walking to a bar, talking about that day of drink when all the world over, everyone shares the same nationality in the spirit of fun, and good company.
Cinco de Mayo, when all are Mexican and all drink Corona especial.
Boy was I a bit plothurt at first about that
Heck, she looks skinnier than me, and I've never seen that in a healthy individual before...
This was going to include a compliment for you Helio, but every phrasing sounds creepy. So I think you look nice and wish I looked more like you.

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
I dunno, I hear it's a right good hatefest as the real Irish get Malloy about all the plastic paddies touting clovers and beer and leprechauns and mixing them with the Scottish and makin up all these claims that aren't even really Irish. One of my favorites was a ten minute rant on the word 'begorrah', bringing in such things as green being The Color (I think Saint Patrick actually has his own particular shade of blue) and corned beef and cabbage being an American Irish immigrant thing. I didn't have the heart to say Begorrah makes as much sense as zounds.
I'll add to the chain of "wishing I looked more like" and assume based on your description of yourself, Siuis, that I should be jealous of your slimness. It's a Conga line of envy!

Listening to a friend blare Auld Lang Syne on a bagpipe is a St. Patrick's Day tradition for me.

I just spend the day saying, oh yeah, it's that thing, I forgot about it. So basically I treat it like 99% of everything else ever.

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
I dunno who this guy is, but I kind of do agree with this new thing he has to say. Churches and other such organizations can happily ban that marriage in their organizations. But really... why do they care about OTHER organizations doing other things? It's like... if basketball players were really upset that football players don't bounce their balls like they do.
To be fair, if someone says something completely stupid, it's easy to write them off as a joke. But once they start making sense... well... maybe then you can start to listen.

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
That's been one of my arguments before. It's a pretty obvious argument. The answer is usually fairly illogical.
I love the strawman "but we already have marriage equality, gays can marry people of the opposite sex just like anybody". It's really cute how politicians reword things to give them a different spin. "Marriage equality" instead of "homosexual marriage". They mean very different things if you actually think about it.Jude P.

Re: LGBTAitp 27: Of Shoes, and Ships, and Sealing Wax
I actually noticed her pants first. Those are really nice pants.
I don't have any advice, but n.n
*Hugs* I find it odd how most people react when I say I don't like either of my parents. Those who don't just write me off as whiny seem to have an easier time believing I have problems with my dad than my mom for some reason. Also, it's kind of ironic that most of the things people blame for it (like how I was perpetually angry growing up) actually resulted from taking their advice. >.>

Steam username is Triscuitable.
I got VAC banned in COD: Ghosts for using an FOV changer.
I try not to think of how sad that is.
