Flaggy posted:A lovely mysogynistic website started using it as their motto, putting it on Tshirts that were always out of stock but than miraculously in stock for maximum sales. Something to do with Bill Murray as well. My husband reads The Chive for cat and funny pictures (at least, that's all I've ever seen him look at on there), and there would be a random hot girl boob shot interspersed with the cat pictures (i.e. the article would have 30 pictures of cats and some random boob shot in the middle), which made no sense to me and I thought was pretty stupid. I guess it pissed me off too because he was looking at hot girl with boobs, but I was like, well they just threw that in there. Can't help it, it's a dumb site, whatever. So when you wrote it was misogynistic I was confused. So I decided to google "chive misogynistic" I found things like this  http://imgur.com/2aL6Hf2and these compilations of boob pictures are called "Future Lower Back Problems."  http://imgur.com/0nlQJBcThis pisses me off because I actually DO have back problems from my boobs but insurance won't cover a reduction so I'm stuck with horrible posture and pain. gently caress YOU. And obviously the sexism and misogyny pisses me off, but that's a given. Oh, and some wonderful comments on the site like "I’d let you keep it if you’d shove it down that bitch’s throat so she would shut up” ad nauseam. Not idiots of facebook, but idiots of the internet. I'm sorry for the  Here, have some female misogynists.

Ha, ha, maybe the creators of the show did consumer research groups with unknowing bronies under the guise of "what do you like about children's TV shows" and then made THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE. Like it's a complete hatred of those bronies, and the creators know it. And they feel good about it.

 My dad shared this today. I've tried Googling about it about all I can find are Fox News/Tea Party/Anti-liberal webpages and no actual news source for it. Basically someone "found" papers stating that a branch of the DoJ paid people to organize protests and marches in support of Trayvon Martin. quote:I don't care what your ethnicity is. I don't care about your political affiliation. I don't even care what your thoughts are on the Zimmerman trial. The fact that Obama's DOJ would organize rallies against a man prior to a trial or verdict is beyond disturbing! Add this to Obama's list of impeachable offenses!

I won't post it, since it's the opposite of the thread purpose. But just to counteract all the negative poo poo we see here: A female friend just posted about how she could see the origins of modern rape culture in old movies. 20 replies later, absolutely no one was a shithead about the subject. A couple of dudes have asked for clarification of what she's talking about, but not a single misogynist has show up! There is yet hope for mankind.

Clearly a bunch of agent provocateurs. And for content, My cousin claimed that she is now "Darker than a puerto rican" after spending a weekend at the shore. Now she does have a puerto rican friend, and it could be an inside joke or something, but that is clearly not the thing you should be broadcasting to the world.

My friend found a page: Heterosexual Awareness Month and it's..exactly what it sounds like.   There are literally no such thing as gay soliders or cops or firefighters.   (Not censoring because it's a public page; also gently caress bigots.) You know..homophobes sure like to talk about gay people shoving things down their throats a lot..  Also "TOLERANCE DOESN'T MEAN ACCEPTANCE".Edit: from that guy's page...

So, I reported a comment for being racial hate speech, and Facebook support decided it wasn't bad enough to warrant deletion. The comment? Saying all black and mixed race fetuses should be aborted for being genetically inferior. I blocked the person so I can't seem to find the comment again for a picture, but holy poo poo Facebook. I knew their support was bad, but not that bad.

I really shouldn't be surprised anymore, but the fact someone actually felt that any month of the year wasn't already "Heterosexual Awareness Month" by default every month of the year is just mind-boggling. It's like one of those people who always gets pissed about there being no White History Month, except they actually did it.  (And of course I guess that's the cue for someone to show me a group that is in fact having a White History Month).

It's funny because they think Homosexuals and Bisexuals hate Heterosexuals and want them to die when it's the complete opposite. People hate bigots which often are heterosexual. And by thinking that everyone is out to get the poor heterosexuals you in turn become kind of an rear end in a top hat. Not a straight bigot but just really misguided. We just want everyone to have happy sex guys, really.  I don't have any Facebook idiots right now. A few people with really opposing views but they no one constantly posting hateful Macros and dumb images. Though I get a few of those "Teach your children to use a gun because America wants to take them away" One of my friends is posting pictures of a raccoon he saved, cleaned and adopted. It's so cute.  And another friend who constantly does the "Nice Guy" posts about not having a girlfriend just got one. everywhere.

I can't wait until my smug atheist friends' kids are old enough to speak in full sentences. There's already that one rear end in a top hat who's teaching his kid not only that Santa and the Tooth Fairy are not real (which is fine, you are allowed to teach your kids whatever you want I guess) but also that all religions and fantasy stories in general are false and used to make people complacent sheeple~ Kid's like three so I don't think this message is exactly sinking in but his smugass posts about correcting his child when he makes up stories about talking to dragons or whatever lead me to believe he will either a. hate his dad soon or b. become absolutely insufferable by the time he hits kindergarten.

A friend of mine informed me of a pretty terrible Facebook poster, so I went looking for content to post on this thread.  Okay, that sounds pretty sad  I wonder what horrible things the other person said? I guess that does make things understandably difficult, but telling people to go kill themselves cause they rejected you is probably not the best response.  Well that's just spectacular.  There was another one that was just posting 'TITTIESASSCUNTBALLSCUNT' in all caps over and over, as well. No idea. This is the post I was originally referred to. It's related to the recent MRA poster scandal in Edmonton and about half the people talking about it are awful and terrible, because WHY WON'T PEOPLE THINK ABOUT THE MENS?! WOMEN NEED TO TAKE SOME RESPONSIBLITY IF THEY'RE GONNA GET RAPED!

If you enjoy Adventure Time, then I would highly recommend watching the creator's other series (I think it is online only, you can find it on youtube), "Bravest Warriors." Although I'd recommend leaving your kid out of it, because this one is a little more geared towards adults than Adventure Time.

There was a translady I used to be friends with on FB that I stopped being friends with after she posted a few pro-gun statuses (okay whatever) and then followed it up with "I almost shot some lesbians making out in the park the other day". Legit just hated the gently caress out of gay people. I'm all for respecting someone's gender, especially being trans myself, but holy gently caress it does not excuse poo poo like that. And so many trans people think it does and just augh. I wish I still had the screencap of her telling me I was misogynistic because I didn't agree with her stance on gun control.

I'm sure this has come up before, but does anyone know what's up with old conservative people and overusing ellipses? I've seen it a lot of places, not just on Facebook. Anyway, my great-aunt loves them. She also has a rather unique approach to capitalization that I haven't quite figured out.  And no, this isn't her wall, that's my from feed at about 11 AM yesterday. She posts in bursts like that, several times a day. The white space was the one post by someone else in that span of time.
