Yes, I'm twenty, you young nincompoop. When you reach my age, you'll know what it's like.

Facebook is so old now.

Post über-fixed.

[Takhisis]

Pity that you misspelled my name when trying to imitate my famous Fix'd poasts, eh?

 

[choxorn]

Just the capitalization- stupid forum turning caps into lowercase.

 

[Skwink]

I liked posting underground.

Fixed for you.

My future is looking as bleak as ever, but I can't die.

(Most) People are idiots!!!

 

[Arakhor]

Corollary - all people are idiots in some regard; some people universally so.

 

[Takhisis]

Corollary: you're an idiot?

 

[Gamemaster77]

Corollary: I'm an idiot.

I figured id take after you and fix your post.

 

[Takhisis]

But I already know that I'm an idiot. I just didn't think everybody else was.

Cisgender is an extremely pretentious term. I wish that anyone I hear say that in my presence immediately undergo face-to-face contact with an overcooked pastry.

 

[Takhisis]

Why can't they say 'straight'?

 

[Yared]

If I've understood it correctly, "cisgender" is better than "straight" because its very existence is an acknowledgement to the struggle that transgender-people face.

TraitorFish once used it against a certain poster to suggest that he really couldn't relate to transgender-people's plight because he himself was cisgender. When used in the right context (ie a heated discussion as opposed to everyday talk), it's not pretentious at all.

Cisgender is an extremely pretentious term.

edit - hmm, never posted this on another thread apparently, know that I meant to when someone else in an OP and like the first response to the OP brought up cringe-worthy statements or something. Beat you to it by several weeks. But yes, this is the type of thing where anyone who uses the term with a straight face goes into a very small and selective pool of "immediately discredited in any debate, ever."

 

[Dumanios]

I've never heard of this "cisgender" word.

 

[Mathalamus]

neither have i.
