Frustrating, sure...but most of us can deal with our frustration without resorting to violence.

Well, I've never been a man, so comparatively speaking, I couldn't say.

I knew that but I figured that was ages and ages back and so I went and looked for it and there was like 3 of them so I wasn't sure which one to post in and it was all terribly confusing. My little woman brain couldn't handle it so I said I would just risk starting a new one instead. It seemed...

You go out and touch spiders.

I don't really think i can say anything. Just read it. http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/

This is very Shakespearean.

Asteroids don't just mozy around through the universe like happy little bumblebees. Like most things in space, they're bound by gravity to bigger things (in this case the sun). This asteroid's orbit is elliptical, meaning that it goes round and round rather than just coming in once and shooting...

My dad is kind of funny looking. His wardrobe is made up of a combination of my grandfather's cast offs and things he bought from the hemp shop.

That's kind of a massive sweeping generalization. How do you deduce that prostitutes who respond to money have no self respect?

Prostitution is illegal in Ireland, and yet this country is notorious for sex trafficking. Possible victims of sex trafficking are then sometimes prosecuted themselves for "breaking the law" even though it may not have been voluntary for them. If it were possible to legalize prostitution on the...

JesusWeen doesn't even make grammatical sense. Hallowe'en is actually an abbreviation for Hallow Evening (as in, All Hallow's Eve) so the Jesus crowd have a W stuck in the middle of their silly made up word that doesn't belong there. It should be Jesuseen.

It's like medieval Where's Wally/Waldo. Special bonus points if you can find a woman with a cherry balanced on her head, a pig wearing a nun's habit, a guy with sheet music printed on his ass, a woman talking to a man with a blueberry for a head, people having sex inside a mussel shell, and...

What's this about bank fees if your balance is lower than 50 dollars? My balance is frequently lower than that and nobody takes anything from me!

Really? If they've actually broken the speed of light, why would that necessarily be a good thing? For one, my degree would be worthless :p But for serious. If this were true, a lot of stuff that is known about science would probably become bullshit. So I kind of hope it isn't. I like science...

Thing is though, everyday more or less there's something that I have to "just get over". It happens all the time. Misogyny is everywhere. And yeah, I do get over it. But that doesn't make it ok. That doesn't mean it should happen. That doesn't mean it isn't a huge problem for lots of people. And...

Oh really? Do you know what it's like to be repeatedly called an ugly bitch? Do you know how it feels to have people judging and commenting on your appearance all the bloody time even when it has nothing to do with what you're doing or saying? Do you know what it is to realize that, simply...

Yeah it made me giggle too. I love it when non-scientists try to explain sciency stuff that they don't understand. It's cute.

No. I got called an "ugly bitch" or some similar hateful thing on at least a weekly basis at school (I'm very very very ridiculously good looking, however). It's just an awful, disgusting thing to call a woman, or anybody, and "chill out" is an inappropriate response because laughing off that...

Well it's just that....somebody's got to, you know? There was a time in my life when I had no option but to laugh comments like that off. I sort of wish I still could do it. Don't worry, it's nothing personal. I won't really get into it anymore because that's not what the thread is about. To...

Wow. "Ugly bitch" is a pretty hateful thing to call somebody. It makes me wonder, if that's what you say about a slim, blonde, (seemingly) attractive woman with a good complexion, what would you say about me, or any of my female friends? How does it make a difference in this specific case, anyway?
