I command it. Obey. You command yourself only, and nobody else. I respond because I command it. BTW, I understand completely…your trying to detach yourself from this craptacular thread that YOU created in which you flung the first witless insult, and yet you are trying so hard to believe that you somehow “showed us” your infinite wisdom and wit… Classic troll. We’ve been warned not to feed those of your ilk, but in this case, I think some of us here are more than willing to force feed you until you struggle to push yourself away from this table/thread of idiocy that YOU pushed forth from your own mentally twisted womb. The way I see it…if it’s not done here and now, then it will have to be in some other silly and insulting thread that you will regurgitate back up in the near future, if the mods don’t tire of your act just yet. I liken it to sticking a finger down the throat to wretch the poison out now, rather than swallowing it and remain sick for a longer period of time. I think many others here feel the same way. ---

We’ll have real equality when ugly, spazzy guys can get just as many hot chicks as suave, good-looking guys.

> [@DianaG](#): > > Why would you? You already know you have no shot at sex, so what have you got to lose? There you go again, making up claims that I have no shot at sex. You know you’re lying but you say this shit just to scare guys into shutting up about equality, which scares the hell out of you. How many times are you going to find out that I’m not intimidated by your lies and laughably ineffective attempts at verbal terrorism before you give up? Equality scares you. You’re lashing out. ---

> [@Yeticus\_Rex](#): > > You command yourself only, and nobody else. I respond because I command it. No, you respond because you are reactionary. And if I wanted to detach myself I would simply stop responding. Now you need to make up some reason why I don’t detach myself - one that, of course, salves your wounded ego. Like, say, ripping off my comment and replying to me, “because I command you”. Don’t be ashamed. Ripoffs is all you’re capable of. ---

They can’t, obviously. Men have never stooped so low as to discriminate against another human being on the basis of their gender. Unlike WOMEN.
