Is there a maze that flawed-mentality created in his mind that I don't know about???

While it doesn't back up that fact up... It's still interesting.

I've done the charitable deed of trying to translate this into English. I could be wrong, but I believe the intended message would look a little something like this:

As a boy, I do have one problem: if the girl you're with likes another guy, you can either do something about it or compete, but if she's bisexual and goes for a girl there's nothing you can do (and no man can compete with a chick)... I kid, I kid. You people are all right in my book.

Despite that, it seems to be indecipherable all the same. The message seems to be something akin to sensicality, but more of a second or third cousing as opposed to a direct relative.

Never, ever fucking dare dishonour the verbal prowess of my forefathers with labelling that reprehensible banter under anything resembling the word "Canadian", again.

I wouldn't start something, even in good humour, that I wasn't willing to finish. You live in Detroit. Don't get me started.

However, I'd like to take my comment about Detroit back; if I'm going to be making any offensive statements, I'd rather make humourous comments at the expense of one specific individual as opposed to an entire group that I've had yet to confront in any way, shape, or form aside from just passing through.

By all means, say what you like about Detroit. We know it's a dump. But it's not as bad as Flint. As we say, "Detroit is the ass of the world, and Flint is 60 miles up it."

But don't let me get your goat. I love Canada. Toronto is great and it's very pretty there in the summer.

Unlike you, I'd rather not lower myself to stereotypes and would rather use verifiable examples.
On another note: Canadians don't pronounce it "aboot"; we pronounce it "about". Americans pronounce it "abowt" and for the life of me I've yet to understand where the w came from.

My goat's fine. I feel like being hostile today.

But why not? Stereotypes are so funny. And if the worst stereotype about Canadians is the use of "Aboot" then there could be worse things. People also use that pronunciation in the Upper Penninsula of Michigan and parts of Wisconsin, so it's not just a Canadian thing. It's a country thing in the northern North American continent.
There, all squeaky clean now?
Seriously, why pick a fight over this?

As I said, I feel like being hostile. It's not even a Canadian thing. I can speak in nearly any accent I should ever please; most Americans always thought I was an American when I lived there, so that's hardly a concern of mine. There are many stereotypes, I've been exposed to them for the bulk of my existence. It's not that it's enough to piss me off, but I've never been fond of petty irritance.
How old are you anyway?

So people can't say things that are stereotypical or un-"P.C." for their humorous value?
"Lesbians aren't allowed to wear shoes." <- Open mouth, remove foot.
And apparently old enough.

How on earth is that a stereotypical comment? There's no perceived validity behind that comment whatsoever.

Disfunction, my point is that any harmless statement, stereotypical or not, can be taken to an extreme and become offensive. This statement, taken to its extreme, implies that lesbians are a sub-class of people who are not permitted to have the same comforts as the rest of us due to an innate inferiority. I've chosen to take a post of yours to its extreme, just as you've chosen to take my "aboot" post to the extreme that I'm implying that all Canadians are uneducated hicks. Neither one is true.
If you just feel like being confrontational, then let's have some fun. But if you're honestly offended, then I'm saying that I did not mean it in an offensive context and I apologize for the misunderstanding.

As I said previously, I just feel like being hostile. If I let myself take much of anything on G.net to heart that wasn't from the people who I care about (and they should know by now who they are) I probably wouldn't be as (or at all for that matter) respected a user as I've become.
If we are going to have some fun, we best take it to another thread as this one's been jacked to all hell.

The flaw in your particular assumption is that when I say I pronounce it "aboot" that I pronounce it "aboot." The pronunciation I use is in fact "about." If ever I heard someone that pronounced it with anything resembling "aboot" I would smack them with a chair.

I'm too tired to even contemplate this one much further. *blinks slowly*
Yes, sleep time is now..

Jeez, have disfunction and minister finished their little pissing competition?
is it safe to enter the forum yet?
back to the origional topic, i dont know if i'm bi or not, i've never really thought about it in depth.
i seem to go through phases, when i get sick of men i'll have a fling with a chick, its always fun but i seem to prefer men when it comes to relationships.
but a female/female relationship and a female/male relationship are two completly differant things which i don't think can ever be compared.
