The Pitters' Place

Boomer

I consider myself a Christian, though I'm not quite sure how much further I can define my beliefs as I don't exactly subscribe to any one church or sect at the moment.

Boomer

Why they keep giving roles to women instead of putting wigs on men just shows the lengths liberal hollywood will go to keep men oppressed.

You just don't understand how sophisticated 7 year olds can be.

Boomer

Sorry, we've had more than enough up here and decided to share.

Boomer

I definitely feel lucky for being white, but this seems more of an instance where I should feel lucky for not living in an awful country.

Meh, friends are overrated.

I started watching Fringe on Netflix a couple weeks ago and just watched the episode in which he sacrificed himself last night!

Total bummer.

Boomer

That's some: http://www.reactiongifs.com/r/wdyb.gif On a somewhat related note, Oklahoma lawmakers are attempting to ban AP history classes in high school because the curriculum does not show America in a positive enough light. (For those unaware, AP courses are simply more advanced classes that can...

I've never really been in a fight for kind of the same reasons as whitey; I've been a larger fellow most of my life, been doing football, rugby, baseball, and track my whole life so I look strong. Didn't really have any stereotypical bullies in school, at least none that I ever interacted with.

Boomer

Get a room.

But to respond to the question, there's nothing specific that makes me like shit-my-pants-frozen-with-fear scared, though I do have a severe dislike of clowns and spiders due to a far too young childhood viewing of "It".

Any island that I am on could also be called fox island.

Ugh, Valentine's day is the worst holiday ever.

Boomer

When I see descriptive labels like that, they're often prefacing some blog or article, or part of some personal social media page. I find most times the author does it to provide a lens through which their work should be read in order to provide perspective to the reader. Also, I'm not sure if I com...

I've burnt butter trying to melt it.

However long he stays in prison, he should have to register as a sex offender upon release as well.

I remember one time having a discussion on one of the many paradoxes that can be raised by omniscience. The op's orginal post specifically said "Let's assume the Judeo-Christian god exists." I was on the side trying to reconcile free will with an omniscient being. Anyways, about twenty or ...

Boomer

For some reason while reading that blog I kept fearing this was going to happen to me:

Loved the jurrasic park one!

Boomer

I can't post video at work, but "Eye 2 Eye" from A Goofy Movie always put me in a good mood.

Boomer

God, the French government is fucking worthless.

Boomer

When will you evil womenz stop oppressing helpless Christian dudebros?

Boomer

You haven't been through what he's been through, man.

Boomer

I guess I should say more. The situations are entirely comparable in principle, not in execution. I'm pretty sure I made that clear, and even if I didn't I thought it was pretty clear that was what I meant. I'm not really going to exhaustively spell out every single thing I say to pre-empt someone ...

"As another article explained, whites could (and probably did) make this exact same argument In thirties America when papers were depicting black people as dumb, violent, and lazy. In the midst of a society in which white people controlled the power structures, they simply reinforced the prejud...

Boomer

There are much broader things to address. Like how Western imperialism and racism has effectively created the environment that would push one to violent terrorism. How Western powers continue to oppress and shake their dicks at Arabs and the rest of the world. When cartoonists focus on the fight of...

Boomer

Exactly. But they did not resort to terrorism. They kept on lobbying, and eventually achieved changes. This is the option still open to Muslims. But having violent people in their ranks is not helping their cause. They realize that, because 90% of the time the targets of Muslim extremists are other...

We all just don't have a sense of humor. Despite being told by dozens of different people over the years that they are not funny, we can be 100% certain that it is in fact we who do not get the joke.

Boomer

Boomer

I'm not going to lie, I laughed like hell the first time I read the article.

Humor aside, I do agree it misses the point and fails to address historical and contemporary issues on why the Charlie Hedbo pictures are seen as bigoted.

NEEERRRRDDDD

Boomer

In times of tragedy false dichotomies always abound: "How can you be mad about A when B has happened/is happening?!" I like to think of people like these as "rage hipsters". Charlie Hebdo is too mainstream, they need to tell you about the tragedy they're angry about; you've proba...

"One example of restrictions on free speech being put to excellent use was during the Nuremberg trials when Julius Streicher, publisher of the virulently anti-Semitic Der Stürmer newspaper, was judged an accessory to mass murder and hanged. This is evidence that governments can sometimes make s...

Boomer

since I consider the "sacredness" (forgive me) of free speech to be axiomatically true. Well, I simply don't. I guess that's a fundamental difference of values which will impede an agreement between us on this. Not only do I think restricting the freedom of speech of certain groups to say...

Boomer

So you're saying freedom of speech that extends to all speech and "civilized societies" are mutually exclusive?

Boomer

Freedom of speech should extend to everything, even things you don't like. I don't like hearing Holocaust deniers spit their vitriol, but I'd rather live in a society where they are allowed to voice their opinions.

Boomer

It's -6F here. Y'all are a bunch of sissies.

Boomer

Many good cartoons, haunting.

Boomer

From what I've gathered the magazine is pretty anti-religious in general.

Idk, propaganda doesn't seem like the right word to me for some reason.

Boomer

I don't get it.

How is Charlie Hebdo propaganda?

Boomer

... Then how come Jesus could walk on water?

Can someone get Liszt to stop complaining? Geezus.
