Ask the W.M.A.

Yes, yes, I know. I won the lottery by being born.

But it cannot be denied I belong to an irresistible group, so ask away.
Still not sure what voice I’ll be answering in, but that’s my privilege.

Are you happy being a proprietary Microsoft product? Or would you be happier being open source?

I guess being the World Medical Association is a pretty big deal.

Oh hey, I got my Wilderness First Responder (WFR) cert from you guys back in ‘98, and my son just got his Wilderness Advanced First Aid (WAFA). Wilderness Medical Associates is a great organization.

Having won the lottery myself, I’ll continue the hijack.

I teach a class called OEC. A first responder class specific to the National Ski Patrol.

Tonight I was a T.D.R. but my manager assures me I can hit a lane Monday.

Do you feel your double-yoo-ness, your em-ness, or your aye-ness provides more privilege?

I clicked OP’s link. It’s a Pearl Jam song. I don’t follow Pearl Jam real close, but I know a little. Have you heard 'Jeremy" or “Black”? They write some heavy stuff. Also, “I’m The Ocean” with Neil Young has a bass line that will rock your world!

Oh! I have a question: Do WMAs enjoy using acronyms without defining them?

Or is it a case of OMGICBIDTBNITLTFI?

I’d agree that the Washington Metropolitan Area does indeed have a lot of privilege going on.

I can certainly see how one would consider being an alumnus of Warsash Maritime Academy as “winning the lottery”. After all , there are only 450 members of the alumni association worldwide. that makes you literally one-in-16.6 million.

Do you think Jesus looks just like you?

Jesus wishes he looks like me.

WMA!

I love the word aviatrix, but I’ll use aviator if aviatrix is unacceptable to you.

What’s your preference?

I thought asking the WMA had to be a job for Doctor Doolittle, as the denizens of a Wildlife Management Area tend not to be fluent in English.

And if he took the job would the William Morris Agency want a percentage?

I was going to ask who would win in a fight: him or an MP3.

How old are you** Inigo**?

Do you feel more or less privileged than when you were, say, 21?

Inigo Montoya? Are you sure you’re a W.M.A.?

Whilst I understand why being a white male American is generally advantageous, there are some examples where you don’t turn out well
