Inflammatory comment on state of "food snobbery" in Lounge.
Broad-brush statement painting all non-franchise-restaurant-liking DUers as FReepers in disguise for food snobbery.

Equally broad-brush statement painting all others as cheapo white-trash bimbos who will eat anywhere and support the oppressive patriarchy.

:sarcasm:

8. Actually my luck seems to be getting better by the day.
I should go out and buy some Steely Dan CDs for my truck.

3. Post new thread of dipshittery to bait others of differing mindsets
as to food. Prove up claim of tiny genitalia of new thread poster.

Inference that critic has said insignificant genitalia.

6. Psst...inside
that wasn't geared towards you. It's what happens around here sometimes. Seriously, not towards you.

I know. But it's fun to be a faux-prick sometimes, you know?

;)

17. Ooh, good one!
Faux-prick. I see them on tv. Only that one station, though, when I'm clicking through.

7. My wife and I have this great thing
SITUATION #1 (at home)

Mrs._mystery: Did you change the cat litter?
a_m: No.
Mrs._mystery: Why not?
a_m: Because of the patriarchy.

SITUATION #2 (on the street)

a_m: Check this broad with the writing across the ass of her shorts.
Mrs._mystery: You never see guys with writing or paws stamped on their asses.
a-m: You know why not?
Mrs._mystery: Because of the patriarchy.

:rofl:

11. The only thing it really proves
is that DUers are way too easily offended as a whole. For Christ's sake, who cares what resturant someone else eats at?

If I was in NYC, I would go to some of the best Chinese, Indian, Italian, Japanese, Greek, Russian and other resturants I could find. But if you want to go to Olive Garden or Benihana, it's no sweat off my back. I wouldn't do it, but if you want to, whatever. I can't understand why on earth people care so much.

14. 'Cause we're progressives.
Those who eat there are tools of the patriarchy.

Those who don't are snobs.

15. I don't care where people go
I am, however, offended that if you have an opinion about a certain place, you get attacked because of it.

23. The nutjobs are trying their best to use the BoR as toilet paper.
No need for progressives to do so as well.

26. I never understood this
Opinions aren't sacred things. Why shouldn't they be attacked? I don't get it.
