Sadly, I can’t recall the name of the episode. The main plotline involved Quark undergoing SRS in order to make a deal with the Sluggo Cola Co. (Sluggo Cola gives your teeth that lovely green color"
Maybe ** pkbear ** should pop over to Fred Phelps’s website (www.godhatesfags.com). You and the Phelps seem to have a lot in common.
It was the DS9 Season 6 episode, “Profit and Lace,” in which Quark had a temporary sex change.
I preferred it when Quark “hosted” one of Dax’s previous hosts’ personality - as a loving, doting wife. Amused me to no end.
But then, that would be a hijack from the fact that pkbites is an outdated troglodyte. Carry on…

Dear Mr. E. Sprix,
As the legal council for the Troglodyte Anti-Defamation League (TALD) I must strongly protest your choice of terms.
While it is true that troglodytes (aka “Hairy Cave-Dwellers”, or as we prefer to be called "Hirsute Stone-Enhanced-All-Natural-Dwelling Inhabiters) do believe that it is acceptible to show affection by clubbing the back of a woman’s skull and dragging them back to our stone-enhanced-all-natural-dwelling, we submit to you that this is light-years more socially ept*than Mr. Bites’s social beliefs.
We understand that you are a spokesman of sorts for minority as well and have also suffered the slings and arrows of casual, unintended insults.
We would like to settle this amicably Mr. Sprix. A simple apology for “an unfortunate choice of words” would more than mollify my clients.
I hope after this unpleasantness is settled we can work together on other causes where we share a common goal.
I look forward to your response!
Sincerely,
Lorenzo Crackle, Attorney at law
Snap, Crackle and Pop, Esq

*why, it’s the opposite of inept, of course!
by the time this thread ends, the entire firm of Snap, Crackle & Pop, Esq will be able to retire.
Here we are on page 5.
Would you believe that I thought this thread was going to die quickly when there was an eleven hour hiatus after Biggirl’s response (the first one after my OP)?
May I use some prerogative as the OP’er to state again that my intent was never to stifle or suppress opinion, even opinion which I find repugnant. As minty green said on page 1, "it’s perfectly possible to call an asshole an asshole without granting any validity to somebody’s cry of “Censorship!”. And that’s what I was doing. Calling pkbites an asshole.
Well, we’ve made our points, and then some. I think we should close this thread now.

But everyone’s having such a good time…

Oh, matt, that was classic!
Oh, and Mr. Crackle? Hold still while I pour milk all over you…

I would recommend that Hayduke Lives…and others of their kind actually educate themselves about gay folk and their contributions to the world.**
You mean like spreading AIDS? 'Course, lot’s of non gay people people do that too. Like drug addicts. I believe PK said he likes to avoid them too.
I would also suggest that they explore their confidence in their own sexuality and find out why they are so afraid of other people’s same-sex feelings.
I’m not afraid of anyone or anything. It does give me the heebies though that I could be talking to this dude at school and 10 minutes prior he could have had a dick in his mouth. Blech. you know, some peoples sexuality includes having others shit in their mouth. Do I have to accept poeple that do that too?
Exactly what kind of people are we allowed to dislike/not accept? Or do people have to accept everyone, no matter how turned off you are by who/what they are?
In that case, you all need to shut up and accept PK for what he is.
It’s my opinion that being a tolerant person does not incude tolerance of the intolerant.
Rather than deal with this obvious trollage, I’ll just say that the architecture of the computer you’re typing at was based in part on the work of Alan Turing. He also did cryptography work that helped save Great Britain from the Nazis.
I don’t know who that is. Was he gay? If so, how did him being gay help him invent his whatchamacallit? Would he not have invented it if he weren’t gay?
I wasn’t trying to troll, though I’ll admit what I wrote maybe doesn’t look so good. My point is, name one thing a person has done simply because they were gay. Something they could not/would not have done if they were straight. I can’t imagine one.
I, for one, am not for discriminating or being violent towards gays. I just don’t want to hang out with them, if I can help it. I’ll bet this is a lot harder thing for me to avoid than it is for pkbites, as there are several open/“in your face” type gay kids at my school than I bet he has to deal with in his life.
Well, let’s see. If I hadn’t been gay, I wouldn’t have come out. If I wouldn’t have come out, I wouldn’t have started going to the gay youth group. If I hadn’t gone to the gay youth group, I would never have met my best friend. My best friend is the one who politicized me. If I hadn’t been politicized, I would not now be running for Parliament. Does that help?
So, if everything they do is the same, whether they are gay or not, why does being around one get your panties in a twist? Phobia? Insecuirity? Fear of not being able to contain the unbearable yearning you feel everytime you’re near one?
Just wondering.

Incidentally, do you not hang out around straight women?
I’m talking about specific people I know who happen to be obnoxious. I’m not talking about gays in general. How about this one guy I know of in school. He’s so out of the closet. He’s like a billboard for being gay. He’s obnoxiously in your face: “I’m gay! I’m gay! Deal with it. I wanna suck your dick. Deal with it”. And he’s serious when he says these things. He’s not kidding around!He’ll come right out and tell other dudes, any dude, that he would like to give them a ride. i can’t believe someone hasn’t smashed him one when he does this shit. He’s been doing it for at least 2 semesters that I know of now.
If I went up to girls and said “I’m straight! Deal with it. I wanna taste your pussy. Deal with it!” I’d get suspended!
Anyway, i know not all of you do this crap, but those that do, I feel I’m intitled to hate you!
If he’s sexually harassing people, he should be reported. If he’s not been, I suspect that that quotation of yours may not be verbatim.
Verbatim? No. I’m just summerizing. There are about 4 students that are real extroverted gay like that, all boys except one, and trust me, she does not want to suck any dick.
Actually, I think a case can be made that Turing’s homosexuality did facilitate his war work.
Alan Turing was a mathematical genius. For that, he was isolated. From the time of his earliest mathematical ruminations, he worked alone, almost in secret.
Alan Turing was gay. For that he was isolated. From his earliest sexual awakenings, he would have had to long in secret.
Alan Turing led the British cryptanalysis effort in World War II. For that he had to maintain unimaginable secrecy. Together with the lonliness of his mathematical genius, Turing’s lifelong requirement* at hiding his sexual orientation would have provided unique, soul-deep experience in living and working in secrecy. Who knows - if he had been straight, maybe he would have betrayed some ultrasecret.
[sub][sup]*I use the term “requirement” in the sense that in the UK during Turing’s lifetime, one did not “come out”.[/sup][/sub]
