Boys are boys from the beginning.
Girls are girls right from the start.
If you're born a boy, you stay a boy.
If you're a girl, you grow up to be a lady ;)
Some things have gotten more complicated since I was born. For example, being woke is no longer as simple as having a cup of coffee. ;)
My first day back in years and already someone hates me

The site got taken over over by spammers that post links that are not relevant to the debate ;)
If they are afraid that NATO will launch an attack from Ukraine, then they should just join NATO and then they won't have to worry about being attacked ;)
I'm trying to figure out the proper social media etiquette ;)
Especially when you consider the cost of drinks, dinner and a movie ;)
There needs to be some incentive for people to be president ;)
I wonder if Native Americans thought the same thing when whitey got off the boat ;)
If Covid infected people died before reaching the hospital, then we would have more beds for everyone else and the health workers would not be overworked. Just saying.... ;)
Whenever I'm going to the store I try to help out a handicap person by driving them in their car to the same store ;)
You kids with your foldable phones and drones..., why in my day... ;)
Being a border patrol agent must be a boring job. They deserve to have a little fun ;)
What I meant was that abortion is not explicitly called out in the constitution like the right to bear arms.
But fair enough. Let's say a woman has the "constitutional" right to an abortion. OK.
The Supreme Court ruled that a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the new Texas abortion ban after 6 weeks can proceed before the law is enforced against anyone. And this threatens the constitutional right to abortion enshrined in the Roe v. Wade ruling (The court in that ruling said that states could not ban abortions in the first trimester (12 weeks) of pregnancy, a period that was chosen because of the idea that a fetus typically could not survive outside the womb during that time.).
So..., it seems to me that rights themselves (like the constitution) can be amended. The justices giveth and the justices taketh away. I'm not sure that constitutes a mockery but it sure is entertaining ;)
Abortion is not a constitutional right. The right to bear arms is a constitutional right. Having said that..., 6 weeks is a little tight ;)
I guess I'll have to switch to the other side once abortion becomes illegal in the entire U.S. ;)
This debate is meant to clarify but some of you may beg to differ ;)
LoL, I know. They tell me I should be more (inclusive, woke, etc.) and I'm like, why don't you adjust to me? Make allowances for me. It's hard for old people to keep up with the new lingo. Especially when they keep changing the meaning of words. What's the point? A rose by any other name is still a rose ;)
I got me one of these TENS machines. It helped me. Maybe it will help you.

I also use Tiger Balm. They tell me I should stretch more ;)
Yeah, it was more entertaining when Trump was in office ;)
I'm getting old. But I've managed to stay away from CIVID so far. I've also managed to keep from getting cancelled ;)
This is not the first time the libs have changed the meaning of a word in order to push their agenda ;)
The idea behind unisex bathrooms is to try and deter bullies. However, my experience has been that the way to deter bullies is by standing your ground and, if it comes down to it, fighting back (dirty ;)
Do not waste time trying to explain to a bully that they are not "woke." If you do, you risk waking up somewhere other than your bedroom, wondering how you got there and why your body aches ;)
If you are trying to pass yourself off as a man and people give you that look that says, "Who are you trying to fool?" then be sure to go to the bathroom with lots of friends.
Regardless of which bathroom you decide to use (even if you just decide to pee outside), go with lots of friend. That way, if anyone objects, your friends can help even out the odds.
I have had to deal with bullies in the past. Sometimes I won and sometimes I lost. But I gained confidence in my self and learned a few fighting techniques ;)
If you are trying to pass yourself off as a woman and people give you that look that says, "Who are you trying to fool?" then be sure to go to the bathroom with lots of friends. This is the accepted female behavior when going to the bathroom.

If other women:
1. treat you as one of them, go ahead and use it.
2. treat you wiith suspicion, proceed with caution.
3. do not treat you as one of them, do not use it. If you do decide to use it anyway, a few women may turn into Karens and report you to the manager.
If these tips help at least one person to make an informed choice, then my job here is done ;)
There are only 2 rules that must be followed in order to use the men's room.
1. If you use the urinal and you wipe, do not put the paper in the urinal!!! It will clog the urinal and you will get thrown out.
2. Do not use the urinal right next to an occupied urinal; unless that is the only option.
That's it. If you meet those requirements, go ahead and use the men's room. ;)
There are 2 corollaries:
1. Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.
2. Have faith in the system.
Also, think about this:
When Trump lost the last election, his comeback (to everyone who mocked him for thinking that he was going to win) was, "They cheated!"
Now, if he runs and wins in 2024, and the Democrats claim that they (the Republicans) cheated, he will reply, "If I wanted my own comeback, I would have wiped it off your mom's face!"
;)
I picked this side because I value entertainment more than worrying about issues that just don't matter ;)
I'm on this side (not because I want you to drop dead tomorrow) but because I don't think you are happy with the direction the country/world is headed. And, if you're not happy, then you're not lucky. The only comfort I can give is the same comfort I give my wife, "It will all be over soon" ;)
I like it when people point to one of my debates and say, And that's how the fight started ;)
My wife keeps telling, it will all be over soon. I guess I'm elderly ;)
So..., people shouldn't go around tearing down shit! That's anarchy! There are processes for getting things done ;)
I am asking if they sent the statues to museums or if they just destroyed them ;)
But there are a lot of people who prefer convenience above all else.
I mean, take the "old countries" for example. They would rather sit outside a café enjoying an expresso (or cappuccino) while eating a baguette. Yeah, the café is probably an old, run down building but..., it's easier to do that than build a new one. Especially when you call it, "history!" Something "Americans don't have because..., how can a country that just a little over 200 years old have ANY history?" Especially when they go around tearing down parts of it ;)
There won't be anybody around to get in my way during rush-hour-traffic ;)
You don't have to read the whole book. Just Google "A modest proposal by Jonathan Swift" in order to understand this debate. Alternatively, you can scroll through here to get the gist: https://jaded.createdebate.com/
Or..., you can just notice this clue --> ;)
You sound like an educated person. Have you not read, "A modest proposal" by Jonathan Swift ;)
Has anybody else been thinking about any of this or are we just zig-zagging along with the crowd? I mean, who gets to decide ;)
I'm just trying to get clarification on the new terminology ;)
This little encounter reminds me of the time I took a bunch of old watches with leather bands. I strung them together to make a belt. Anyway, the reason that episode in life reminds of this encounter is because in both instances, it was a waste of time ;)
anyone can be a Jew. It's a very welcoming religion.
It's true. My friends wanted me to convert. I was dubious at first that they would have me since they were the "white" variety of Jews but they assured me, they let Sammy Davis Junior join, so...
Anyways, in the end I didn't join because there was this issue about an operation and then the whole deal fell through. ;)
Oh, so in this context (meaning this debate) I'm not letting trans people "live."
Right? So..., I shouldn't have created this debate? I still don't get it. How is this debate not letting them live? ;)
I don't even know what discussion we are having.
I'm not letting trans people "live?" How exactly am I doing that? I did not know I had so much power ;)
By making fun of them? I make fun of libs. Am I not letting libs "live?"
Also, I categorize what I wrote as making fun of the situation. I'm not making fun of trans people. To be clear, the situation is that non-trans people are not allowed to join in on the conversation unless it is to specifically voice the trans talking points or they risk being canceled. I'm making fun of the fact that I am not allowed to join in on the conversation. I am not allowed to have an opinion. I'm not allowed to question anything. There's no, "let's agree to disagree." If I don't go along 100%, then I'm canceled. I would argue it is they who are not letting me live. ;)
I was thinking more along the lines of people who are on the road when I'm trying to get to work or get home from work. Those other people you mention don't really bother me (when they are not on the road with me).
But those people listed do seem to bother other people and I was just trying to provide a modest proposal. Even though that proposal is unrealistic because the killers would be considered haters and they would get canceled in a heart beat.
A more realistic proposal would be to kill them all and let God sort them out. That's His job. If everyone is doing the killing, then you can't single any one group out and cancel them. This solution has many added bonuses like fixing global warming, COVID, etc. Oh, and yes..., it also fixes the problem that is very close to my heart..., it fixes rush-hour traffic ;)
hmmmm. What exactly have conservatives done to change their view of "live and let live?"
I hope that question doesn't constitute me going all wonky on you ;)
