Well clearly it was a general statement. You and Indigo are two of my best friends here, after all.
So I know you're still a bit new-ish as far as actively reading and posting often, so some of the texture of some of my comments might get lost in-between, so as I sometimes do, I'll take this moment to remind everyone a couple of things about the way I talk. Just to clear the air. 1. As a rule, I make broad generalizations (which, as it happens, will often include Generalizations about Broads ). This includes making sweeping statements in judgment of large groups of people, even if there are individuals those statements obviously don't apply to.I'm a lot like Carlin, in that while I treasure individuals as I meet them, I have nothing but disdain for the larger group(s) they belong to. But I'm not going to stop and make a list of every single individual a general statement doesn't apply to; I'd never get anything done. Instead, I trust those individuals to know and understand that they're exempt. 2. I expect that most people will have an anecdote that will contradict whatever general statement I've made. That's perfectly fine, but I'm only ever going to speak from My Perspective. I can't speak from Theirs and won't even try, outside of occasionally playing Devil's Advocate. 3. Unfortunately for the people such statements may offend, MOST of the dirt-worst people I've ever known were women. So I have huge issues with them collectively and don't even pretend otherwise. Individually? Lots of gems. Collectively? Mostly-awful. Like any human beings, really. But I'm not gonna lie or speak against my own experience, either. In this case - Coola's "friend" giving them the heave over a difference of opinion - well, unfortunately, the nuttiest Libtardicons I've ever encountered were almost all women. The "Don't come to Christmas" types, the "We aren't friends anymore, don't talk to me again" types... in MY experience, they've all been women. I have a lot of male Democrat friends, and we get along swell and can even discuss/debate politics; any male Democrat that doesn't have a manbun just might be a rational person in spite of their bad opinions. But a lot of the Liberal Democrat Females are just plain twats. Which is why I'm not shocked Coola's "friend" did that too him, and thus, why I made that flip remark. I'm aware some people have the opposite experience and they're free to speak to that. I won't invalidate it. All anyone can do in life is call it as they see it from where they're standing. That's why communication is so important to the human condition; it creates Perspective. So again, I sort of need people to understand that if I'm clearly not speaking to/about them, that then they're not included in the Sh*tty Thing I Said. And that yes, sometimes those things are purposely provocative because it's more fun that way. So yeah, I clearly wasn't calling you a c*nt. But I have, and undoubtedly will again, at some point, say that Women Are C*nts in general. Hopefully going forward you'll already know I don't count you in that list. You're a good egg. I tell you that all the time.
