An acquaintance of mine just liked a page called "You Just Got Friendzoned".


Dude.


DUDE.

I thought my facebook feed was safe from this kind of poo poo.

I was explaining the friendzone to my friend yesterday. He kept insisting it was a real thing and I got increasingly baffled until he was like "you know, dude, you're in my friendzone" and basically just thought it was where you put all friends of both genders. When I finally managed to articulate the horrible internet version he was shocked.

The baffling thing about this is that someone thinks "my little girl" is even remotely appropriate as a term of endearment for someone you're attracted to :psyduck:.

I went through something very similar with a friend, they thought it was just feeling sad when a friend doesn't reciprocate your feelings. Likewise, when I filled them in they got really upset. A big part of why that poo poo can go unchallenged is just that most people don't know the actual meaning of it and will even use it with no clue to the negative connotations. Same with stuff like "nice guys" and "misandry", now that I think about it.

It seems to attract a lot of attention from US based nutjobs. The Westboro Baptists had once planned a protest there but the border agency banned them from the country.

He's saying that light skin indicating lack of a soul doesn't make sense because it would suggest that black people actually had souls.

You're reading into it way too much, it's a joke about soul (food, music, brother), like have you never heard the term soul used in 70's black movies and songs?

They're all about anarchy and overthrowing the government, but rather than actually addressing injustices and raising awareness of the tyrannical tendencies of the US government, they mean "our darkie president hasn't made it legal to shoot other darkies and faggots yet". They've basically said this, but with "veiled" racism and homophobia that still manages to be less subtle than what I posted above. I'll have to find it.

Also I too hate misandry and child abuse and other such terrible things, but it's funny how :stare: this list gets.

This is what I figured the joke was. I mean, I guess the whole "gingers don't have souls!" thing is insulting to gingers but other than that it seems like a fairly cute/harmless joke.

I like how it says "This is America" but uses "arsehole". How much you wanna bet it was some lovely EDL/BNP meme from the UK with the America mention added in?

Person that posted it was a small-statured, pale-skinned, dyed-red "ginger" girl. I figured it'd be a palate cleanse between the MRA and EDL poo poo.

The ban is only on goat humping.
That implies Americans are free to hump other animals, it's just goats that's a no-no. Goat humping just plain ain't American :911:

Or perhaps a russian or russophile. девушка моя - my little girl - is sometimes used as a term of endearment.

Is he in college or previously went to college? I've rarely if ever run into anyone who lords their college education over anyone (at least at the undergrad level), but I know a lot of people who like to assume "college degree = they secretly think they're better/smarter than me!!!"

Yeah, there are people who have an inflated ego over their degree, but for every person who's :smug: about their college degree, there is another person (like that dude most likely) who's equally as :smuggo: about their lack of a college degree, so it balances out.

Yeah, I don't mean that absolutely no one is super smug about their degree just that I don't run into it that often. It could be a regional thing, since most people where I live don't really go to college so anything beyond high school is kind of seen as being uppity I think.

It's really awkward when my mom or dad go off on rants about how people with college degrees are know-it-alls, since they seem to forget I have one too. :cripes:

I guess that's why they went to the trouble of paying for both of their kids to go to college. :rolleyes:

Actually they're just complaining about the people at their jobs mostly. They're factory workers and love to complain about the college educated engineers all the time.

We gazed into the eyes of madness... And all we found was horny.




...She does realize that she'd be in for a world of STD-ridden trouble if she seriously did try to fully emulate Panty, right? :stare:

And before anyone jumps on me: Panty is... Extremely promiscuous (as in one of her life goals is to screw 1,000 men, and she actually manages to do it by the series' finale). And the creators have explicitly stated the only reason she never caught anything was because she was still an angel of heaven.

What astounds me is that people seems to think they will actually be able to fight off the US Gubberment on that imaginary day when they come to take their guns.

Additionally, when people start quoting the dictionary, you know no headway will ever be made.
