WARNING: Randomness follows.

[beandelphiki]

I've FINALLY gotten around to trying out my new skateboard a bit, and I think I'm beginning to get the hang of it. I've basically found my center of balance on the board, and I'm getting turning down as well.



I find it funny that when I run into jerks on lj, they usually try to dismiss me by focusing on my username as an insult. I've been called "lil' beanie" and "Beankid" as insults.

The implication seems to be that being "small" in some way makes me inferior. I guess these people don't read Orson Scott Card.

Heavy on the irony...



And finally, I'm sick of stupid Women's Studies-spawned lemming ideas.

"Gender is a social construct!"

"Where did you get THAT tripe?"

"Oh, Women's Studies!"


Does anyone besides me see something WRONG with this picture?

I swear to fucking bob, I've been debating with this one person for a week. And I'm sick of the argument. If any more people try to convince me that gender is a social construct, I will ...FLAME them and rip them up into ITTY-BITTY PIECES. Live my life, then tell me it's basically all in my head.

Especially if you go by "womyn."

I told this woman that in order to prove gender is entirely a social construct (as she seemed to want to do), she had to prove that everyone could live just as well as another gender. I hoped that would shut down the debate, but it didn't. So I got out of there before I got too mad to be polite.

ha ha!

so what kind of answer did she have to that?

i am General Domination Pumpkin because apparently I am involved in an evil plan to steal all the valuable jewels in the world, destroy everyone while they are sleeping, and make enough money to buy ninja suits. and kisses, but that is a secret part of the plan.

Grrr....she really avoided it actually.

She went off on some other part of my post, and then at the bottom of quite a long argument, she said, "Well, I'm not really sure about gender as a social construct, anyway..." Which has to be the cheapest way I've ever seen of crying uncle.
