Why are so many people my age this stupid?

Jesus Christ, check this shit out.

Some people are so fucking stupid.

This was posted at the forum of a games site I frequent. It may not be a big deal, but it just shows the mindfucked mentality of some people, most of whom are probably about my age (I’m 16).

“Anyway. I think it’s the biggest bullshit in the history of mankind. “Oh, we feel this way”, “Oh, we were born this way”. Fucking bullshit. The guys who can’t get chicks turn out to be gay. And in response to the quote above, if you creat your children the right way, they won’t turn out gay. Fuck’em faggots. Burn them all.”

“I love how the first people to defend faggots are the same pretentious motherfuckers who think they are the only intelligent people in the world because they watch shitty indie movies. you’d be the first person to make fun of some guy renting the latest action flick down at blockbuster, fucking hypocrites.”

“In my eyes, homosexuality is a sexual perversion. They (gay males) like doing it in the butt with other gay males. Other people like to shit into their cockholes. Don’t they deserve a parade?”

“Male ‘Bum Fuckers’ should be either castrated or killed.”

I don’t know how some seemingly smart people can turn out to be so insanely stupid.

Goddamn.

Betcha ten bucks this is going to the Pit.

I’ll see your ten bucks, Cougarfang an’ raise ya another ten.

On second thoughts – I just bet against you, didn’t I? Darn this late-night posting habit!

I reckon th’ bet’s worth 20 for th’ Pit.

Yeah, Pit city.

And I read the thread you linked to, RZA. What can I say: welcome to the Straight Dope, where things are, uh, different. :slight_smile:

For the record, RZA, it has nothing to do with them being your age (I have a feeling some of those posters are 40 year olds living in their momma’s basement), and it has nothing to do with them being gamers. Message boards, especially unmoderated ones, attract losers without the social skills to have real world friends. They like to pretend that everyone reads what they say, when most people have them on their bozo filter.

If it makes you feel any better, it seems to me that 16-year-olds, and people in general, these days are a hell of a lot less homophobic than they were 20 years ago when I was 16. There are still way too many yahoos out there, but it was a hell of a lot worse when I was growing up.

It’s got nothing to do with your age. Plenty of older folks feel the same way, they just express it in different words.

Having said that, I greatly appreciated this little gem of articulateness from the linked message board:

Whatever the hell that means.

after i stopped laughing…

the sad thing is, those are the people i went to high school with. in all seriousness. or, well, at least, SOME seriousness. maybe not literally the same ones, but damn, did i know a few of those…

where i’m from, it’s common practice to accuse girls with short hair of being lesbians. not that they were always that far off, but god, what a witchhunt. something like the Red Scare, i’d be willing to bet.

The funny thing is that, contrary to the assertion of the moron that RZA quotes in his OP, many gay guys are better at attracting women than straight guys could ever hope to be.

Sing with me!

“I wish I was queer, so I could get chicks…”

Dig guys that are queer,
Guys that don´t dig chicks
That don´t dig guys like me,
See I´m not queer I´m too ugly

[sub](Disclaimer: straight guys are not ugly, much to my dismay - for example that excessively ambiguous madrileño boy I cruised last night.)[/sub]

HOLY SHIT! I’ve never seen such stupidity.

THE STUPID! IT BURNS LIKE FIRE!

:smiley: thats hilarious :smiley:

Anyway, yeah the people on your board are a bunch of homophobic bigots. So what? Theres not much you can do. Just keep in mind that there are quite a number of 16 year olds who aren’t homophobic bigots. One day those kids will crawl their way out of their parents basement, see the sun for he first time and realize that theres more to life than computers and assumptions about people they’ve never met. Just ignore them, eventually evolution will filter them out :wink: .
