More OK Cupid fun

I answered "Yes" to that question and I stick by it.

People with low IQs are still people, thus the world would be a better place if they weren't allowed to reproduce.

[Sir Fronkensteen, The Hawk]

I'd just like to state that I answered "No" on that answer, on the grounds that people do horrible things to each other even when they're smart, and it's usually worse because they've got more inventive ways of being horrible.

I answered "yes" for the sake of irony and the sake of that particular shot.  It wouldn't be fair to not let someone reproduce because of IQ, then we'd have a cesspool of inbred geniuses.

fair enough (though I don't think "irony" means what you think it means), but your creep-o-meter is still HORRIBLY out of whack.

I know what it means, but in the heat of the moment, I fordgetz mai werdz.   Happens quite a bit.  Maybe I should back off the ganja.

I know that giving up the weed has made me a more hateful and terrible person. I view this as a plus. It's hard to be properly hateful and terrible when you lack motivation to get off the couch.

The warm fuzzy apathy is the only thing stopping me going on a d/t induced killing spree atm. giving up the booze has activated my arsehole glands it would seem.

No, honey.

It's not that giving up the booze has made you more of an arsehole. 


Giving up the booze = having to see people w/o the alcohol induced rose colored glasses of brotherhood and love.

Irritating fuckers, aren't they?

Oh, I always feel so happy when you de-lurk to post here.

Even when I'm not as shitwasted drunk as I am now.

HI BELLA!

I just figured out that I did mean irony, considering I have a high IQ and choose NOT to reproduce.

that's not irony.

ETA: Is there a more frequently misused word among the younger generation? I don't think there is.

[Sir Fronkensteen, The Hawk]

It would have been irony if you had a low IQ and wanted to reproduce and answered how you did.

HI BELLA!

HI ECH!  How's it going?

Pretty amazingly awesome! I love my job and I have a 6-week vacation coming up in December/January. And I just got an impossibly cute dog. How's things for you?

[Sir Fronkensteen, The Hawk]

Why are we arguing about this anyway??  Where is the love??         SHEL, still has her rose colored glasses

[East Coast Hustle]

I actually decided I was being needlessly dickish, given that I usually give other people shit for being unnecessarily pedantic. The over- and misuse of the word "irony" is just a pet peeve.

As for the love, well, I think I left it in the wastebasket of a Super 8 Motel.

That all sounds so great! I'm well happy for you. And also........puppy!!!! 

Things are good here, too, thanks. The job's driving me a bit crazy this week, but that's more than balanced out by the fact that I have chocolate, Liam gave me roses this morning, Sara's flown off to Germany on the holiday of her dreams, and my new best friend owns a medical canabis dispensary.
