(I did hear him call me a "f*cking baby" once, but then when I yelled, "WHAT did you just call me?" he retorted, "You weren't supposed to hear that!" and then I started laughing and the fight was over. I sometimes HATE that he's so darn funny. Ruins perfectly good fights.) But looking at the root causes of why "n*****" is hateful in a way that "honky" isn't, and how "c*nt" is hateful in a way that "prick" just isn't, I think it comes back to who is saying it and who has the power.

And while there's I imagine, no power on earth that would make you strike a woman, the physical fact remains if you did, you could hit her harder than she could hit you. You have the upper hand, and you were given that by physiology. In a way, the stronger person always has the upper hand in a fight, and it's testament to our progress and growth as a society that the stronger one will opt to not ever play that card and choose to negotiate through a fight differently. Because now, most of us see it as more "manly" to keep one's fists in one's pockets. And I think not saying words that say that one is bad simply because one is female or black is another way of keeping those fists in their pockets. It's saying, I'm going to have to criticize you based on what you do, or WHO you are, not what you are. If I'm called a bitch, it's because I'm being a jerk, not because I'm a female canine.

A girl punched me once while I was driving. That wasn't right Nicole. On behalf of women I think you should apologize. I couldn't respond in kind you know.:D

No worries, Timm; I don't confuse the message with the messenger. :)

Can I just call her a c*nt instead? You NEVER punch anyone while he or she is driving! Not just a c*nt but a dumb c*nt. Good?

(Unless, of course, said person happens to be one of the people on this board, in which case you're setting me up for a catfight. Not fair! I was set up!)

Not on the board. Dated her for 6 years!!! Crazy, but also hot. The whole trophy girl thing loses some luster when she has the personality of Ike Turner.

The woodchuck story...continued....
So the little woodchuck named "Moonshine" had left the farm and somehow fought his way from the nasty eagle's talons.
Moonshine didn't like being found in a violent situation...NOT BY A RED HAIR!
So...when the eagle dropped him, he landed in the middle of Manhatten.
Dazed and confused, he sought the only safe place he'd ever known.
Underground!
He dove down the nearest hole.
After he snuck under the turnstile and barely missed some very angry feet, where did he find himself?
You guessed it...on the a train, headed uptown.
All of a sudden, an amateur preacher shows up and starts calling the little Moonshine all kinds of nasty names.
"HOLY PINNOCHIO!!", he screamed in his best helium voice.
"You need to be saved!" the Bible thumper ranted. "It's in the book!"
"NO S-IT", little Moonshine said. "I thought I was when the eagle dropped me. How come it got worse?"

To be continued....
Happy woodchuck day

Just for the record, you should have run that one by Jamie before you posted it. While I am too much of a baby to let her hit me, I cannot remember how we ended up agreeing that I should punch her in the middle of the afternoon without the help of alcohol, but I am sure that her right arm would disagree with your assessment above.

A point I make in light of the fact that my masculinity had been severely threatened when there was no bruise at any point during the weekend....and I'm sure Jamie will be glad to confirm that one!

That is hilarious. I can empathize; I dated a couple very handsome losers. Sometimes, you just want to look at something pretty for a while.

That is hysterical. I mean, that's awful. You should never hit anyone.

Heeheeheeheeheeheeheeheeheehee.

i only wish i could remember the exact conversation that led to us agreeing that it was the right thing to do...me punching her arm as hard as i could.

i do think though, that she was insinuating that i was not masculine enough to leave a bruise. of course i lied and said that i was sure i could leave one.

problem is that she took me up on the dare.

Downthestretch55 02-02-2007 05:44 PM

So....the little woodchuck, Moonshine, after telling the amateur preacher to get a job, gets off the train.
He waddles down the platform and, needing some fresh air, finds a staircase that goes up.
A bit dazed by all that's happened on "his" day, he finally gets above ground.
The street sign reads 89th St. (though he can't read...never got that far with no child left behind...he was).
A car pulls up and the door opens. He doesn't know where he is, how he got there, or what to do next. It all seems like a dream sometimes.
He gets into the car. The door slams.
The next thing he knows, he's getting puched in the stomach!
"Why??", he screams in his helium voice, "Why??"
"This is not a verse in Kumbaya!"
Thump! "Take that you little rodent!"
Before little Moonshine passed out from the pain, the signs showed he was on his way to Madison Square Garden.
Little tiny golden gloves were already being taped to his tiny paws.

to be continued....
Happy woodchuck day

Just tell her you meant to do that. I had scene in acting class about that once, "He's a cop. They know how not to leave bruises." From "L&O" or something like that. Really, it's much harder to hit and NOT leave a bruise, right?

Wait a minute... is one of us supposed to be a WOODCHUCK in this scenario?
