Feminism, yeah!
QuotePlease distribute this list. Put it up in your place of work, in your university's library or wherever you think theymight be read:
1. Don't put drugs in people's drinks in order to control their behavior.
2. When you see someone walking by themselves, leave them alone!
3. If you pull over to help someone with car problems, remember not to assault them!
4. NEVER open an unlocked door or window uninvited.
5. If you are in an elevator and someone else gets in, DON'T ASSAULT THEM!
6. Remember, people go to laundry to do their laundry, do not attempt to molest someone who is alone in a laundry room.
7. USE THE BUDDY SYSTEM! If you are not able to stop yourself from assaulting people, ask a friend to stay with you while you are in public.
8. Always be honest with people! Don't pretend to be a caring friend in order to gain the trust of someone you want to assault. Consider telling them you plan to assault them. If you don't communicate your intentions, the other person may take that as a sign that you do not plan to rape them.
9. Don't forget: you can't have sex with someone unless they are awake!
10. Carry a whistle! If you are worried you might assault someone "on accident" you can hand it to the person you are with, so they can blow it if you do.
We should make a list of things you should already do and post THEM up everywhere.

#2 just doesn't make sense, unless you either assume that everyone who walks by themselves does so because they're antisocial and don't want to talk with you anyway, or that everyone who sees someone walking alone can only think of the situation in terms of opportunity for an assault of some kind.

They probably meant they should physically leave them alone, but they're women so of course they fucked it up.
:?
All men are rapists.
How informative and useful.
:lulz:
The "remember not to assault them!" parts are my favorite. Because most people default to assault when they forget not to...
yeah, but 2/3rds of them had deserving victims.

You've obviously never been with a REAL WOMAN (read: feminist).

Really, I don't have a clue how to respond to this, except that it smells similar to biting beaver.
Oh oh, ALSO, its not rape if you yell SURPRISE! first.

This is truth.
Although, it depends a LOT on timing. I always thought that was my favorite way to wake up (I am a horny bastard in the mornings and I WILL rape you if you are accessible) but then abruptly my ex started waking me up for sex shortly after I had fallen asleep. The result, in the end, was fairly positive in that he is still alive and has all his limbs.
I'm a rapist? You mean I shoulda been raping all those women that shot me down? I missed a memo damnit, I call a do over!

We all default to rape, in the end.
Or maybe that's just me.

Quote6. Remember, people go to laundry to do their laundry, do not attempt to molest someone who is alone in a laundry room.
What's next, telling me I should not clean my sheets during darkroom orgies either?
I always get that shit mixed up.
QuoteDon’t pretend to be a caring friend in order to gain the trust of someone you want to assault.
Consider telling them you plan to assault them.
If you don’t communicate your intentions, the other person may take that as a sign that you do not plan to rape them.
Fuck that, why do I always have to show the initiative?
For instance, they could simply wear a T-Shirt PLEASE DONT RAEP ME in order to be clear on these matters.
I really hate it when they pretend to be a caring friend, and then they do that last-minute pepperspray thing to get their point across.ยด
QuoteDon’t forget: you can’t have sex with someone unless they are awake!
What about trees?
How do you tell if they're awake? Is it a seasonal thing?
QuoteCarry a whistle! If you are worried you might assault someone “on accident” you can hand it to the person you are with, so they can blow it if you do.
I would, but I'm worried they'd bite it off, you know?
I"d like to offer an alternative list for TROOF about monkeys.
Whereas humans are simians that often act on base impulses and hurt other people, and
whereas the majority of human relations is power games meant to assert dominance in some manner, and
whereas neither of these traits seem to have any specificity, they are ubiquitous,
therefore, the following suggestions:
1. Be Prepared - Crazy prepared if possible (cf. Richter). Have the right tools for the right situation. If a can of pepper spray suits your situation then have one. A person should be dependent upon their own items, skills and abilities whenever possible, and not rely on someone else, because who knows when they will actually come through?
2. Watch your back - Simians have the tendency to turn any situation into a bad one. Be responsible, look out for these situations coming. Take martial arts or self defense, or at least know where the vulnerable points on a human body are located. Learn to read your surroundings, have constant awareness of whats going on around you, especially in situations where you are the sole person watching your back. Learn to read people and their reactions.
3. Don't compromise your intuition - Alcohol is great but it muddles the mind. Don't drink or take substances in situations you are not completely confident of your abilities and are not surrounded by people you trust. It's far too easy to make mistakes of judgment and end up in a bad way because humans suck and will take advantage of your disadvantage. Just sayin.
4. Have friends watch your back - Only be friends with people you can really trust, and let everyone else be merely acquaintance. Telling the difference comes with experience. A friend will drag you out of a bad situation when you are unable to do it yourself. Walk in groups whenever possible, because simians go after the loner. Conversely, don't follow this suggestion to failure on the other suggestions.
5. Watch your friends backs - Because this is the sort of thing friends do. Furthermore, it builds trust with them so they are more likely to watch your back when needed.

And ALWAYS be ready to kick a motherfucker in tha nads.
Being in the mood right now, I sorta want to punch the OP in the face for assuming everyone has this primal urge to assault who ever happens to be closest, like some sort of sociopathic tourettes. "Assault someone on accident"? "If you are not able to stop yourself from assaulting people"? Are we REALLY stuck in a pre-industrial idiocy where people (but I know you meant men, Terrorista) can't be faulted for just running up and raping and assaulting people in broad daylight because we're just MADE like that, like "Oh shit man, I'm getting the rape impulse on that girl overthere, quick BLOW THE WISTLE!" This sort of stupidity passes on stereotypes and actually ENABLES people to act like that, because "like man I just can't help assaulting people, it just happens and before you know it I'm raping some girl on the sidewalk" is the most stupid fucking excuse ever.
Also, this:
QuoteAlways be honest with people! Don't pretend to be a caring friend in order to gain the trust of someone you want to assault. Consider telling them you plan to assault them. If you don't communicate your intentions, the other person may take that as a sign that you do not plan to rape them.
Is one of the most fucked up things I have ever heard. "Lets sit around and talk about how I want to assault and rape you!" Also: "You aren't planning on raping me so that makes you a caring friend!" :x
Lets reword this:
QuoteAlways be honest with people! Don't pretend to be a caring friend in order to gain the trust of someone you want to have sex with. Consider telling them about your sexual inclinations. If you don't communicate your intentions, the other person may take that as a sign that you are /not/ interested in having sex with them.

Cause, you know, by using the same old tired line of mocking the "feminists," La Terrorista shows how she (I assume) is just like SO MUCH COOLER than all of THEM and OH WOULD WE PLEASE GIVE HER BIG PATS ON THE BACK AND HUGS?
My first instinct on opening this thread was to roll my eyes and yawn. Heard it all before.
EDIT: In fact, I'm pretty certain that exact first post has already been posted here.
Maybe we should both sexually assault La Terrorista.
Having re-read the original post, I think her intent was to create other lists, equally inane, and place them here and there.

And yes, no doubt the first post was definitely an attack against all feminists everywhere, of every inclination, and most certainly not mocking those self-declared feminists who wrote this idiocy in the first place.
Its a good thing we asked La Terrorista to clarify, instead of blindly assuming, isn't it?

Learn to read people and their reactions.
3. Don't compromise your intuition - Alcohol is great but it muddles the mind. Don't drink or take substances in situations you are not completely confident of your abilities and are not surrounded by people you trust. It's far too easy to make mistakes of judgment and end up in a bad way because humans suck and will take advantage of your disadvantage. Just sayin.
4. Have friends watch your back - Only be friends with people you can really trust, and let everyone else be merely acquaintance. Telling the difference comes with experience. A friend will drag you out of a bad situation when you are unable to do it yourself. Walk in groups whenever possible, because simians go after the loner. Conversely, don't follow this suggestion to failure on the other suggestions.
5. Watch your friends backs - Because this is the sort of thing friends do. Furthermore, it builds trust with them so they are more likely to watch your back when needed.
I'm pretty sure monkeys and apes don't default to sexual assault. If they do I don't know why baboon ladies bother showing off their swollen red posteriers to get some.
Please point to the sections of Kai's post that relate specifically to sexual assault.
Aw, you ruined the monkey rape porn in my mind that Kai's post had inspired. Darn you LMNO

Feminism, yeah!
QuotePlease distribute this list. Put it up in your place of work, in your university's library or wherever you think theymight be read:
1. Don't put drugs in people's drinks in order to control their behavior.
2. When you see someone walking by themselves, leave them alone!
3. If you pull over to help someone with car problems, remember not to assault them!
4. NEVER open an unlocked door or window uninvited.
5. If you are in an elevator and someone else gets in, DON'T ASSAULT THEM!
6. Remember, people go to laundry to do their laundry, do not attempt to molest someone who is alone in a laundry room.
7. USE THE BUDDY SYSTEM! If you are not able to stop yourself from assaulting people, ask a friend to stay with you while you are in public.
8. Always be honest with people! Don't pretend to be a caring friend in order to gain the trust of someone you want to assault. Consider telling them you plan to assault them. If you don't communicate your intentions, the other person may take that as a sign that you do not plan to rape them.
9. Don't forget: you can't have sex with someone unless they are awake!
10. Carry a whistle! If you are worried you might assault someone "on accident" you can hand it to the person you are with, so they can blow it if you do.
We should make a list of things you should already do and post THEM up everywhere.
SHORTER VERSION: DON'T EVER TALK TO A WOMAN. DON'T EVEN LOOK AT HER. IF YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT A WOMAN WE WILL LOCK YOU UP FOREVER AND CUT YOU BALLS OFF. DO YOU FEEL LUCKY, PUNK?

Wait.
Is everyone here of the opinion that La Terrorista actually believes this shit?
Nope. 99.98% sure that La Terrorista posted this to mock the silly internet "feminists" (as an aside, I'm sure at least at one point, the F-word was considered a fairly good site. But I am not up on my internet feminist politics).
Cause, you know, by using the same old tired line of mocking the "feminists," La Terrorista shows how she (I assume) is just like SO MUCH COOLER than all of THEM and OH WOULD WE PLEASE GIVE HER BIG PATS ON THE BACK AND HUGS?
My first instinct on opening this thread was to roll my eyes and yawn. Heard it all before.
EDIT: In fact, I'm pretty certain that exact first post has already been posted here.
Oh sorry, I didn't realize making fun of stupid things was now forbidden.
And yes, no doubt the first post was definitely an attack against all feminists everywhere, of every inclination, and most certainly not mocking those self-declared feminists who wrote this idiocy in the first place.
Its a good thing we asked La Terrorista to clarify, instead of blindly assuming, isn't it?
That's not at all what I was saying.
I'm fairly certain that exact list has been posted here before, much of the exact same things were said, lots of panties got in a twist, etc.
It's also been beaten to death all over the entire damn internet. It's just... yawn, eye roll, okay, been there, done that. (Which is why I did not initially respond, as that's really all I had to contribute.)
Yes, based on further comments, it was making fun of those people that wrote that list. And I reserve the right to find it trite and not humorous (at least the mockery isn't humorous to me--not because it's mockery, but because it's just so boringly done).

Nope, I've never seen it posted before. Not here, not anywhere.
But I suppose since YOU'VE seen it before and YOU don't find it funny, no-one else is ever allowed to, either. Maybe you should just get "stop having fun guys!" tattoed on your head and be done with it.
Are we really gonna have a huge fight over this?
Because if we are, I have to go put axle grease in my boots.

I am not sure exactly what I did to piss you off, but I was pretty confident that people around here knew me better than to think that just because I don't find something funny that everyone else should fall in line with me.
We'd be a pretty fuckin' miserable lot if everyone had the same personality as I do. :p
QuoteI am not sure exactly what I did to piss you off
Yes, it must be becaused you did something else to piss me off, and I'm taking this opportunity to attack you. God forbid Cain actually attack someone exactly based on the actual argument in question. No, it must be part of some Machiavellian plot or long forgotten slight. Anything but what is actually happening at the moment.
Fuck this noise, I'm sick of people continually doubting my motives on here. Later.

No, I meant that I'm not sure why my response pissed you off.
I have one stance on it. You have another. Historically, we have not always agreed on things. In fact, historically, this board is full of jackasses that disagree with each other, and we all do it in pretty abrasive ways.
So, in light of the fact that I don't THINK I put any words in your mouth with my initial post, and I certainly wasn't trying to speak for anyone other than myself, I am confused about why my initial post pissed you off, other than that you don't agree with my stance. But, as I said, we have historically not always had the same stance, so that didn't strike me as enough to have pissed you off. So I assumed there was something in my post that pissed you off that I haven't picked up on, therefore, I am not sure what I did.
*goes to get some axle grease*
:aaa:
I'm just going to let people assume whatever they want about me. You're all probably right anyway. What do I know?
Also, I considered putting this in OMF, but decided this was a better choice and could be moved if whoever decides these things decided to do that thing.

Bad move. You gotta take whatever ideas you got by the horns and hold on tight. Plus, you probably know a bunch of stuff.
And we're right about many things, and just as often wrong. Except Roger, hes a prophet.
THIS THREAD IS NOW (AGAIN) ABOUT LISTS OF OBVIOUS THINGS
1) Don't put social experiments in people's forums to control their behaviour.
2) If you see someone post a new thread on their own, leave it alone!
3) If you're going to help someone to just fucking google it, don't tell them the "secret hidden web with all the cool stuff" is at http://www.google.on.nimp.org
4) NEVER click on a link uninvited.
5) If you are an elephant and someone else gets near you, DONT ASSAULT THEM!
6) Remember, people go to forums to hear people agree with them. Do not attempt to argue with someone who posts on a forum.
7) USE THE 50 POST SUGGESTION! If you are unable to stop yourself from trolling people, wait 50 posts and ask a friend to join in on the fun.
8) Always be honest with people. Don't pretend to be a pagan hippie in order to gain the trust of someone you want to troll. Consider telling them you simply think they are hilarious. If you do not communicate your intentions, the other person may take that as a sign you take them seriously.
9) Don't forget! You can't troll a forum unless there's other people posting!
10) Carry a whistle! For fuck's sake, everybody loves whistles.

Being in the mood right now, I sorta want to punch the OP in the face for assuming everyone has this primal urge to assault who ever happens to be closest, like some sort of sociopathic tourettes. "Assault someone on accident"? "If you are not able to stop yourself from assaulting people"? Are we REALLY stuck in a pre-industrial idiocy where people (but I know you meant men, Terrorista) can't be faulted for just running up and raping and assaulting people in broad daylight because we're just MADE like that, like "Oh shit man, I'm getting the rape impulse on that girl overthere, quick BLOW THE WISTLE!" This sort of stupidity passes on stereotypes and actually ENABLES people to act like that, because "like man I just can't help assaulting people, it just happens and before you know it I'm raping some girl on the sidewalk" is the most stupid fucking excuse ever.
Also, this:
QuoteAlways be honest with people! Don't pretend to be a caring friend in order to gain the trust of someone you want to assault. Consider telling them you plan to assault them. If you don't communicate your intentions, the other person may take that as a sign that you do not plan to rape them.
Is one of the most fucked up things I have ever heard. "Lets sit around and talk about how I want to assault and rape you!" Also: "You aren't planning on raping me so that makes you a caring friend!" :x
Lets reword this:
QuoteAlways be honest with people! Don't pretend to be a caring friend in order to gain the trust of someone you want to have sex with. Consider telling them about your sexual inclinations. If you don't communicate your intentions, the other person may take that as a sign that you are /not/ interested in having sex with them.
Better. In fact, I think this whole thing is a troll.
It was a quote from the site she linked to, actually, and she posted it to make fun of it.

I'm assuming you mean the sight it was posted on, I think La Terrorista was just pointing out how stupid it is.
That said, a hot lady walked into the elevator today, and I was just about to assault her when I remembered this post, and realised that I probably shouldn't assault strangers in elevators.
:lulz:
Earlier today I assaulted myself.
It was nice and I might do it again.
