Skald the Rhymer, your fixation with rape is somewhat disturbing.

So would you say the culture of this board is more wishy washy on rape than society at large? Maybe I’m not reading the right threads but I really really don’t have the same impression as you, Peeta and one side of Dio’s mouth seem to have.

What color is the lint?

Don’t try to speak for me, ass. Apparently this will come as a shock to you, but “women” aren’t some monolithic group that share an identical sense of humor.

Right? I’ll laugh at a rape joke or a man-cheating-on-wife joke, if it’s funny. Granted, most of the jokes in this category are tired and unfunny, but that’s true of a lot of topics.

Mostly black, with a few white specks.

Nope, I find it pretty much just as bad as society at large. Which is fucked up, because we’re supposedly “the smartest board on the innernets”. I expect a higher quality of dialog here, and I usually get it, but not on this topic.

Sounds like an aerial view of my neighborhood! Can you see one of the specks waving?

Who’s telling the joke and in what company is also very important, too.

Keep the lint. Send the change and the antacids.

I think so - hi, Vinyl Turnip!

Er … sorry about spilling curry on you earlier.

Will do. Do you mind if I send Vinyl Turnip as well, if he or she wants to go?

Um. Am I going to have to feed him? I think he’s married, too. I’m not sure I can support an entire family.

Hey! That’s my line – I’m the only one who’s allowed to say that. :smiley:

I get the impression that Vinyl Turnip is employed, so I assume he can feed himself and his family without your help. But even if not - the man lives in my pocket lint. One assumes that a bit of chocolate or beef jerky would see him through for years.

I also want to take a moment to note that it’s taken less than three full pages for this thread to go from rape to the care and feeding of lint people. We should all be very proud of ourselves for that. :slight_smile:

Just another person weighting in with no opinion on the OP whatsoever. (Though I’ll admit to seeing Skald’s posts all too often, and occasionally ignoring them.)

Furthermore,** bup**'s joke was amusing.

Wait, is the lint a package deal? Or is he simply migrating to *my *lint. I’m horribly confused now.

So am I. Gah, this is swiftly becoming stressful. I need some antacids …

Oh dear. Those were your antacids, weren’t they?

How did we even get into this mess?

Oh, god, not trigger warnings. I find those even more abhorrent than ads with sound.

That’s ridiculous.

Ads with sound are a total abomination and when the revolution comes, the people responsible will be first against the wall.

But trigger warnings are really annoying, too. Just not as annoying as ads with sound.

<Homer Simpson>
Oh, yeah. Lint people like that, you gotta feed eeeeevery day.

Aren’t you Skald’s ex-girlfriend who popped up in a thread where he mentioned you? Don’t you think it’s disingenuous not to mention that connection here?

You seem to share a similar style. Perhaps that is what attracted you to each other.

That’s gold, Jerry! Gold!

Now now, don’t you worry your pretty little head about what’s funny and what’s not. One of the menfolk will tell you when you should laugh so you can concentrate on baking pies or sewing buttons or whatever the devil it is you women think about.

Your stoicism is duly noted. Others very well may appreciate it.
