So, after a fresh dusting of snow slicked up the streets a little, I felt the urge to see how far I can skid. After doing about 5 skids of about 100 feet each, I let my hands off of the bars. This felt pretty cool, so I wanted to try it going down a road through campus. So, I get to about 15 mph going down a slight grade, and slam back hard, starting the skid. I moved my legs up to hold the bars, and slowly let my hands go. This is when things went bad. The front wheel hit a bump, sending it into a wobble, and as I tried to recover, I was slammed to the ground. Now, let me further paint the picture here: My bars are set up so that if my thighs are holding them, the stem is holding my Mr. Dangles. On the way down, I crushed Mr. Dangles against a nice, cold piece of forged 6061 aluminum. I almost cried it hurt so bad, and had to check if they were ripped off in the process.

Well, Mr. Dangles doesn't get much use anyway, so it's not that big of a deal.

And if your lucky, perhaps he got stretched..

Being that I'm married, it doesn't get much use. But be that as it may, this "ship" actually has a 35/65 split of female to male ratio. So, once we pull in, there is always the possiblity of.. you know.. what you wack off about in your room with your ****ty roommate..

not a bad comeback, sir...not bad at all. But, we need to make sure that we realize that 50% of women that join the Navy are lesbians, and the other 50% are lying. So that pretty much leaves you wacking off to pictures of the XO.

First of all, I'm enlisted, so calling me sir.. not really there.

But you need to realize one thing. You and I can make jokes. But if you want to call 50% of the women on this ship Lesbians: you're gonna need a whole lotta protection from said pissed off women. And talk all the **** you want, but you don't have the grapes to take on them. In fact, I tell you what, I don't have the grapes to tell them you said it. AND... I don't have an XO, not even a "second in charge officer" that could be accurately described as an XO. And if you've seen the XO of the ship I'm riding.. even you in your convulted fantasy wouldn't put anyone in that posistion. XO's are by nature, scary frightening people who yell, scream and murder. One day you're a nice loving decent person, then, you're XO. It's magical, really. Because once you're done being XO, you turn back into a loving, decent person. Some sort of school you get on the way.

Beside, it's not wacking off. It's making shower babies. Get it strait. Now, go back to *****ing about how you hate your classes your mum and dad are paying for and *****ing about your room mate's smoking habits and whining about your girlfriends grandmother...

and lay off the twinkies, ok?

shut the **** up you toilet. you're the one who said:


Females in the Navy=lesbians=no male scoring
so making assumptions that every female in the navy is a lesbian isn't homophobic? perhaps not, but is certainly discriminatory and in bad taste. bad taste that cetainly has no place on this board, or the internet in general. perhaps you were being sarcastic, but that sort of sarcasm isn't funny when you're saying it to a bunch of strangers. and women are sex objects that are there for "scoring"? why don't you step away from the computer and go outside and play possenger some more. you have nothing to offer here.

However, I do understand how it could be taken offensively.

I can vouch for Trekkie820 NOT being homophobic, and NOT viewing women as sex objects. He's one of the good ones.

Which part is what?




NOT trying to take sides here, but Karsten jumps all over his **** all the time.

Actually, you should take sides, because I have jumped on his **** often. This whole thing was a pot shot in fun, and because he left himself open.. and no one took the opertunity. So, I was.. proactive... I didn't work very hard to resist it.

I understood his response to be a joke. I did take some offense, because he was saying something that is pretty derogatory and that he would not say to thier face. But I understood it to be done in the spirit of the banter, and thus, I didn't call him on it. Perhaps I should have, or not.

But I will say this:

I take partial responsibility because I started the jokes. He may have said something out of line, but I did get him moving. Yes, he's an adult (well..) and yes he is able to choose his response (response able), and yes he said something wrong.

But #1, he didn't mean it, #2, he apologized, #3, it's not his normal method of posting (that I've seen anyway) and #4 I think he won't do it again.

So cut the kid some slack.
Why?
Because I'm asking you too. Not that it matters for anything, but because I'm askin.

Even if he is a twinkie eating, whining little biotch.



Are there lesbians on the ship? No one asks, no one tells and that's the end of that. They are all sailors, defending the country, doing a job, making a living, and making thier way in the world. Just like the men. Just like me. Just like any other military member. So, that's that about that.


Now, can we get on with things?

First, let me clarify- I am a female. Partially, I am a lesbian. The other portion, of course, it not a lesbian (heterosexual). Just so you don't go thinkin' I'm partially female or anything like that. *somebody take the shovel away from me now*

I think Trekkie's comment was him reducing himself to relate to William's 'talkin' ****' level, which, outside of this situation, he would not do.

In fact, I'll even say that no harm was meant to anyone (each other, lesbians, women, etc.) by either Trekkie or William.

Upon further thought, I bet at least one woman on the ship is a lesbian. Huh.

Yeah, that's what I think. Now, pick on Karstens all ya want, but leave Trekkie alone. ;)
