Are women really this stupid - CBC - CNN et al

@MN_Maenad

shrug The women I know don’t watch daytime TV.

Someone must or it wouldn’t be there. Who, I wonder? Retirees?

@Astroboy14

And they have cooties!

One of the most remarkable and unusual of all childhood superstitions, in that sometimes, but only after you grow up, it turns out to be true. (And “circle-circle-dot-dot” don’t help none.)

Something tells me the OP would not be able to answer your question Anaamika.

Bravo, that made me chuckle.

It’s probably true too.

To be quite impolite, I think as the younger group has slowly replaced the elders in so many parts of education and the media, the younger set is dominated (and badly represented I hope) by the lumpen proletariat/lesbian celebrants of average who despise cultivation and refinement in favour of grunge, awesome, more grunge, Burger King and political correctness, easy listening and always wearing black.

Man, this takes me back to the '90s. Oh those young people, with their lesbians and their grunge and their political correctness and wearing black all the time!

@Iamnotivan

Well, this is somewhat surprising. If some women could read, I was saying rather strongly that I think women are mainly quite smart - as any other humans - and that they are badly misrepresented by the current media. But, look at what happens. Seemingly the marginally-literate who completely failed to understand the concept took offense and began to howl. So you wish to say that I was wrong - women really are stupid as the media believes them to be. Maybe I am wrong.

one time i did a fart

it smelleded like pineaple

Really? Because it seemed to me like you were saying—and granted, I’m wildly paraphrasing here:

@Iamnotivan

It seems women are too docile or dumb to protest the stupidity of the way they are represented today, and as a result, the stinky mediocrity of what the rest of us have to deal with daily.

Can you please point out the parts of this sentence in which you are making the claim where “women are mainly quite smart”? Because I’m having a difficult time seeing it. Perhaps, despite believing myself to be male my whole life, I’m actually a woman, and this is interfering with my reading comprehension? Please advise; I’m quite concerned at this point that I’m contributing to this stinky mediocrity, and indeed, might even be a Burger King-eating lesbian.

You. Are. Precious.

Looks at his/her start date, looks at mine

I swear I am not any kind of of troll. I lack both the time and the attention span.

[Bryan_Ekers]

Well, it’s an okay rant, as rants go. I appreciate the undefined and confusing insults like “freezer section”. What does that even mean? Who knows, it’s a rant.

[Measure_for_Measure]

Agreed: I think the OP is underrated. His followup post sucked and the OP lacked the all-important familiarity with the carriage return, but other than that it was an acceptable rant/troll/raving of an unhinged lunatic.

Still as BrainGlutton notes it raises an interesting question: who watches this crap???

I don’t think you read your own OP.

@Iamnotivan

. . . as any other humans

You mean . . . as men?

@Iamnotivan

So you wish to say that I was wrong

I’m guessing most people here wish to say piss off!

Trying to read and understand this makes me feel quite pretty.

[Cat_Whisperer]

@BrainGlutton

Me, too! (BTW, for what?)

Everything that is wrong with our modern Western society.

@BrainGlutton

Of course, those are the most important things in their respective lives. If women were what you wish they were, what would they be posting?

Things that are more interesting to me.

@Inner_Stickler

I don’t think any of the women I follow on twitter post only baby stuff or alcoholic ho stuff. Try following classier women. Megan Amram is always a good choice.

Okay, I’m following her now.

@Chimera

Cooties!

I totally remember those!

@Ambivalid

Trying to read and understand this makes me feel quite pretty.

I don’t understand it; I must be one of those dumb women.

[Bryan_Ekers]

@Iamnotivan

So you wish to say that I was wrong

No, we wish to say that you’ll DIE!

I saw Goldfinger the other day.

Trying to both read and understand Iamnotivan’s pithy and insightful opinions on the fairer sex has caused Ambivalid to channel Maria from West Side Story.

Oh, that. Well, yes, of course.

[Little_Plastic_Ninja]

Daytime TV is vapid.

Film at 11.

[Little_Nemo]

I don’t know how much Ivan paid the OP to use that screen name but it was money well spent.

[Trinopus]

What’s wrong with Burger King?

[Der_Trihs]

@Trinopus

What’s wrong with Burger King?

It’s undemocratic, and should undergo a forcible regime change to a Burger Presidency.

[Grrr]

I was watching the Wendy Williams show the other day. Are women really like that?
