I'm NOT a homophobe,but......

I’d like to say, as a Jew, that some things that Jesus said weren’t completely stupid. Stuff like not only loving your neighbor as yourself, but loving your enemy as well. And that stuff about not judging other people, that was cool as well. Am I allowed to say that?

Well, Esprix? Aren’t you going to force your homosexuality on Rich?

No.

I have decreed it. You may post to Barbra Striesand threads, Bernadette Peter threads (but only if her lips aren’t being discussed as being perfect for…but I digress!. You may post to men’s tight bun-cheeks threads…possibly cooking threads, but none that mention tough-guy “cooks” like Emeril…lessee…no hunting/fishing threads, unless you’re, like…y’know…butch. Camping thread are ok, but only if they’re CAMP-ing threads. And of course, you can stay in the Gay Ghetto and post to explicitly Gay threads, where certain poster’s delicate, flower-like sensibilties won’t read about the horrors of a gay guy finding men’s hairy chests attractive.

Obviously the gay hive-mind didn’t pass on my latest ruling. Have someone fill you in, 'k?

Fenris

Clearly, Esprix, only threads pertaining to show tunes are relevant to you…:rolleyes:

Presumably the bisexual people on this board should declare the gender of their current lover(s) before participating in threads which only pertain to them when the planets are correctly aligned and the wind is blowing in the right direction.

Oh, and Rich - perhaps you would confine your postings on this board to the narrow-minded bigot threads; clearly they are the ones which pertain to you.

Wait a minute, wait a minute…

The OP is objecting (basically) to people not staying on-topic.

In MPSIMS.

:snicker:

Oh, Rich. <pats Rich on the head>

Maybe you should stick to GD.

:snicker:

They know how to stay on topic there.

:snort:

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Whew! Thanks, Rich, I needed that.

Yes! Please?

Most intriguing. How about women’s rights? Am I allowed to post to threads about women’s rights?

Esprix

Oh, and as an aside, am I the only one who saw the subject line of the OP and thought “I play one on TV”?

Ok…I’ve spoken my piece. I’ll just have to agree to disagree.Everyone has the right to express their opinions.My main point was that I am just sick of hearing you affirm your beliefs over and over again.Now you know my opinion and I’ll leave it at that.

[sarcasm]
Why do the pro-choice (not that there is anything WRONG with that) members of this board continually post to subject matters that really don’t pertain to them? I don’t get it…we KNOW you are pro-choice…wear it as a badge of honor if YOU wish.It’s your prerogitive to BE or DO what you wish.Please don’t force it on others. . . .Take any stand on abortion you see fit…but personally, I have my own beliefs thank you.I really don’t wanna see/hear/read about yours.
[/sarcasm]

Scarlett here. I’d like to know how stating one’s opinion = forcing it on you. God forbid your dainty eyeballs should read something you don’t like. Perhaps the SDMB home page and FAQ should contain a list of your preferences so no one offends you in any threads you might happen to read.

Ya know, you could have saved a lot of space in the OP: “I’m not a homophobe, but fags stay out of my sight!”

:rolleyes:

Poor Esprix.

Here, let me help out–

So, Esprix, is paisley coming back, or are we “over that” now?

Come on folks. Let’s give him more stuff he can relate to without fear of reprisal.

Fenris, thanks for Babs & Bern. I’m currently working on a ‘Can We Really Blame George Michael?’ thread–if you could keep an ear to the ground…

Man, you’ve taken my lighthearted breasts thread and turned it all homophobic and that ticks me off.
Since it was my thread, do I have a right to govern it, a little anyway? The way I like to see my threads run is, I say something, and sit back and see what people have to say. As long as they dont get too off topic, I say, go crazy, say what you wanna say, have fun! I like boobs. Matt’s gay. He likes man boobs. So it’s only 99% pertaining to the topic. Big deal! He has every goddamn right to say it. You didnt seem to have a problem with any of the other minor hijacks in there.

He isnt going into every single thread there is out there and yelling ‘HAHA! I’M GAY!’. He just came in and voiced his opinion. What’s wrong with that?!

This sickens me.

Translation:

I was spanked, and spanked hard. I suspect the spanking may get harder still. But rather than simply apologizing, I’m just gonna back out without defending my beliefs.

Fenris

Riiiiiight. I see! And posting a thread on “I like boobies” isn’t throwing blatant heterosexuality in the faces of the rest of the boards? Because, surely, it is implied that we’re talking about men liking women’s boobs.

Pardon me as I titter behind my hand at you.

**

I put a space in between those two statements 'cause it’s obvious your alter ego posted the second half. for those who need help: ‘everyone has a right to express their opinions’ ‘but I’m really tired of you expressing yours’

If you don’t understand why your OP is getting such a hostile reaction, try transposing another characteristic such as “black”, “Muslim” or “female” into your post in place of the word “gay”.

Oh, I see. Being gay is a “belief” now. Right.

Esprix, what the fuck is wrong with you today? Did someone slip some Rational Hetero Pills in your coffee? You oughta be slapping Rich around with your boa by now!

Hmm…choice of words…a coincidence, or no…?!?

"I am NOT prejudiced against blond people…

as long as they dye their hair black or wear wigs when they are out in public. I don’t mind that they’re blond, I just don’t want them to keep shoving it in my face."

Rich, you are impressively stupid. In case no one has told you, being gay is not a club you join. It’s not a belief system. It’s just the way you are born. So, any discussion you have with a gay person is going to invariably reflect the different perspective that being born gay in our not-yet-tolerant society gives.

God, what an idiot.

Oh, don’t go away mad… just go away.

So you’re really not complaining so much about people going off-topic, and it’s not exactly gay people treading where they are lacking in expertise, it’s more - how does one say? - them flaunting it.

{cracking knuckles}

I, for one, am sick of you heterosexuals flaunting your sexuality every chance you get. I mean, the OP even starts off about men (ostensibly only straight ones allowed, at that) talking about women’s breasts. I mean, really - we all know that Coldfire and manhattan and UncleBeer and Fenris and SPOOFE and, well, 90% of the men on this board are straight - must they flaunt it so? Really, they go on and on about being horny and the movie stars they lust after and Lara Croft and whatever it is you straight men go on about. Frankly, I’m tired of it. Really, can’t you just keep your sex in the bedroom where it belongs? And the women aren’t much better! Hamadryad and Kricket and Falcon and Eve and, well, 90% of the women on this board are heterosexual - why do we keep having to hear of their sexual exploits and men’s proclivities and whatnot? Really! It’s perverse, if you ask me.

Come to think of it, I’m pretty tired of people flaunting their heterosexual orientation in real life as well. Why oh why do these straight men have to wear wedding rings? I mean, talk about blatant. And those pictures on their desks of their wives and children? Please - can’t you just keep your sick home life at home? I really don’t want to be forced to look at it day in and day out. And next time we’re around the water cooler talking about our weekends, I don’t want to hear about your family reunion or what you did with your kids or taking your wife or husband on a romantic picnic in the park - ugh! It disgusts me! If I wanted to know all about your perversions (for, after all, heterosexual sex is really disgusting to me), I’d go look it up in a medical dictionary or go to a “straight” message board. And speaking of, isn’t “The Straight Dope” in and of itself flaunting it? What about “The Bent Dope” or maybe “The Queer Dope?”

So how guilty are you, Rich of flaunting your own sexuality? After all, after this thread, I’ll expect you never to mention your heterosexuality again because now we all know your orientation - don’t go around flaunting it, now, or you may be a hypocrite, or - worse - a homophobe!

We wouldn’t want that, now, would we?

Thank you, Pariah, for recognizing my shining wordplay.

Fuck that, I was just looking for an excuse to say titter. :wink:
