As a follow up to this, someone felt the need after the initial post to bring up the burning question that inevitably crops up when something designed to benefit women is enacted: But what about the meeeeeeen? :reddit:



Comments thankfully were mostly people calling the dude an idiot, though there were a few towards the bottom.



Alternatively, there also the old-fashioned "Sexual harassment? Pfft, clearly you just need to get your priorities straight. :smug:"



Straight people are pretty hosed up and your gender relations are atrocious. All these weird hang-ups and strange possessive objectification of each other really clash. I wish these policies weren't necessary.

Some guy from another forum who's obsessed with me is creeping my Facebook page and insulting me in replies to comments I made to public pages.

The weird part is that he's a man in his 30s using a dummy account that has "Rachel Adams" as the profile name, and a photo of Jade Raymond as the profile picture. The account has existed since 2011. :psyduck:

Median is a measure of average :eng101:

Also, someone should point out to those Windsor people that women-only gyms/gym days are the only way a lot of Muslim women can actually work out because they can't do it around men.

He has autism so he tends to repeat phrases. He's been bothering me since 2012, and I knew it was him as soon as he made the first comment. I waited until his second comment to confirm that it was him. So I blocked him, and then reported him for using a fake name and impersonating a celebrity for good measure.

You found it. It's the most flawed argument about taxation and the rule of law. It's melting my face off like the Ark of the Covenant.

Why do these people not understand the basic idea of living in a society that runs on money? You pay taxes with your money because that is the most convenient and painless way to feed back into the system that allows you to thrive. Do these people want to go back to the days of forced labor and conscripted military service, or something?

"Ah, you live in our borders and get to enjoy the protection of our military and all these other systems that exist to discourage people from injuring or killing you because you annoyed them! You also have access to our economy, and all the benefits that participating in it provides, our education system, and as much of a socioeconomic safety net as we can manage to provide. Would you like to return the favor by chipping in a portion of your income to be fed back into the system, or would you like us to make you work at the forced labor camp for a year every 5 years? You can either go the farming camp, or military camp. The military camp is currently located in Iraq."

The "pay taxes if you make enough money to fall into a tax bracket" option is pretty loving nice, compared to some other systems of civic responsibility.

Of course, I can tell from the subtleties* that the person who posted that doesn't think they owe anything to society whatsoever, and should get to reap important benefits like "not being an outlaw" and "being able to own land without having to protect it, using military might, from your neighbors" without contributing anything to the system themselves.



*It wasn't subtle.

...do they not realise that most of this is literally already happening? You go to work at a place and work there, creating a certain amount of value through your labour. Your employer then takes a large chunk of that value as their profits and pays you only a fraction of it as wage. The second paragraph applies to "right-to-work" situations and salaries for CEOs, and the last paragraph is pretty much taken care of by all the "but our poor job-creators :qq:" that republicans and libertarians like to pull.

This would make for a hilarious dystopian movie. Even better if the Hamburglar is the one that drags you off to court where you are faced with Judge Mayor McCheese and the jury is made up entirely of Grimace clones. While in hamburger prison you're made to give Nazi salutes to a painting of Ronald McDonald in your jail cell, and if you refuse, they send you through a red plastic PlayPlace slide into a ball pit filled with lava.

A goon on my G+ posted this translation.

quote:

I would rather not listen to your fabrications about how my sexual partner is not being faithful to me. Do not tell me he is cheating on me, nor that you witnessed said cheating.  You have no verifiable proof, so there is no further reason for this discourse. I am quitting this nonsensical word exchange. You can insinuate that he is lying, but I have known him for far longer than you have. I have a better sense of when he is being deceitful and when he is being honest. Please tell me, if he has been cheating on me, the reason for his seemingly endless supply of semen. If he had been cheating, other women would have stolen the majority of his manseed for their own selfish purpses. I laugh at you, and am going to stop before I get so angry I need to abuse illegal narcotics (or possibly commit assault and spend some time in the local constabulary, this is unclear).  I love you.

It was always fun when someone would come in, the case workers would inform them that they had to provide bank statements (and usually 3 months of bank records) and they'd either protest about it or say they'd bring it in and then never do it. If you have a bunch of money in savings you can afford to pay your rent, chucklefucks.

Well, it is pretty lovely that in order to get financial assistance you have to first burn through your savings, leaving you with nothing in case of emergencies.
