[QUOTE=greeley;48192357]"I am genderless" That is physically impossible and you're just trying to be special.[/QUOTE] Genderless is possible. Someone can not identify as either male or female, it's a very fluid thing, like sexuality. Sometimes people are attracted to men, sometimes to women, sometimes to both or even neither. Same deal with gender, some people feel that they're men, some women, some a mix and some neither. Being sexless is probably what you're thinking of.

[QUOTE=gary spivey;48197635]Is it really that god damn important anyway[/QUOTE] Yeah gender identity kinda is important, especially to people who don't identify as the sex they were born as. Sure you get the typical pretentious tumblr straight people who say they're queer or genderfluid cause they want to be special but that doesn't mean genderless people don't exist. As starlight said; gender=/=sex.
vaginas are weird [editline]13th July 2015[/editline] and not particularly pretty
Top #40 radio music. It's all shit.
[QUOTE=Hanso;48195814]Setting off your own fireworks and playing with the other stuff around 4th of July. I like watching firework shows, but don't get the fun of watching little puny ones people do in their back yard and throwing poppers on the ground.[/QUOTE] That shit can be fun though especially if you're hanging out with friends doing it.
[QUOTE=.Lain;48197691]vaginas are weird [editline]13th July 2015[/editline] and not particularly pretty[/QUOTE] Depends on the vag, innies can be quite beautiful.

Being sexless is probably what you're thinking of.[/QUOTE] But see, im attracted to men, and i know im a male because of social norms and what my style is and the fact i like being a male. How can someone not identify with being EITHER of them. I can understand someone identify with being both and they just go back and fourth between them now and again... but NEITHER of them? What? How does that work? What do they identify as? A unicorn? I genuinely would like to know the answer, i'm not being sarcy or anything.
Tinder and all these "dating" apps for the most part, it seems like some people only use it to just post pictures of themselves and see how other people like it, or judge people on their looks and all that Just makes me feel a little sick to see how low people can get about themselves

But then i found my partner on the dreaded grindr app and we've been together for 2 years now and i couldn't imagine us meeeting without it.
Heavy metal. Most kinds of metal, really. Like lighten up already, why are you so furious about everything?
[QUOTE=Trekintosh;48201793]Heavy metal. Most kinds of metal, really. Like lighten up already, why are you so furious about everything?[/QUOTE] it's not furious though?
[QUOTE=Trekintosh;48201793]Heavy metal. Most kinds of metal, really. Like lighten up already, why are you so furious about everything?[/QUOTE] I don't listen to Heavy Metal as such, but i listen to songs with screaming in. I'm a very calm person and chilled out, rarely ever angry but yet it listen to this "aggressive" music. It isn't angry or furious at all. Some bands probably are but a good majority of it is more expressive than anything.

That's a pretty broad statement.
The intense camaraderie and hatred amongst fans of spectator sports. I just don't get how people can feel so strongly about a team or player that they'd go so far as riot over them.
[QUOTE=Trekintosh;48201793]Heavy metal. Most kinds of metal, really. Like lighten up already, why are you so furious about everything?[/QUOTE] I think the lighten up part only really covers for about 10-25% of the metal scene. maybe less.

Sure you get the typical pretentious tumblr straight people who say they're queer or genderfluid cause they want to be special but that doesn't mean genderless people don't exist. As starlight said; gender=/=sex.[/QUOTE] I support trans-gendered people because gender dysphoria is a very real thing, and there's nothing wrong with identifying as the gender you feel you are. I know quite a few of them and have dated one. They're not any different than any other person, in most cases. It stops there, for me. Human beings have never been anything but male or female, and anything beyond that I see as things ranging from make believe to genuine mental illness. I do think people can identify that they don't feel strongly masculine or feminine, but I also don;t think that makes them "genderless." That said it's their right to say they think whatever they think, so long as they don't interfere with anyone else's business.
People talking in public really loudly. [editline]14th July 2015[/editline] Also why do people text without their phone muted? Noone wants to hear the clicks from the keyboard or the sound of sending/receiving messages.
Loads of these are things that almost everyone finds weird, not just you.
People that like to scream for absolutely no reason. Toddlers or so I can understand, but otherwise, I don't see how people can derive pleasure from screeching like fucking cats.
Fandoms. All of them. They are simply franchised cults. Most fans are pretty casual but the same could be said about most "normal" cultists (not from the super crazy cults you hear from common media). Then there are the diehard fanatics whose mindset would make any natural person squeamish. Death/suicide threats, fetishism, stalking, and outright ruining people's livelihood (doxxing and disproportionate retribution is practically a culture of its own) are not only common, but encouraged in some circles. Communities and alliances are a normal part of human nature and if there's an isolated feedback loop, it could stray from the norm by a crazy degree. Cults and fandoms are no exception. [editline]15th July 2015[/editline] Just so you know, it may not sound all that weird to dislike fandoms since I explained it. It's worth noting we're in an age of specialty forums and subreddits with little cross interaction with the saner populace; shit tends to get weird and people still dismiss it as "harmless". Think the ICP fandom being considered as "harmless" despite being recognized as a criminal organization, for good reason, by the FBI.
This is more towards people around my age (18-20s) but I never understand the point of binge drinking. To the point where you are on the floor, being sick constantly and not remembering the night out. I mean get wasted but Jesus Christ just stop when you reach the point where you are stumbling about. Even some of my friend are like that. Sometimes it makes me feel like an old man whenever I watch documentaries about young people partying, doing drugs and drinking. I'm just sitting there thinking "That's really quite disgusting. Why would you want to do that?" But then again I must be boring.
I don't agree with people misrepresenting their sex. Sure you can feel like a girl in a mans body or vice versa, but that doesn't mean you actually are a girl. In english, it's separated into sex and gender, where gender is your "mental sex" and sex is, well what you're born as and physically are. In norway, sex and gender both translate to the same word: Kjønn. This makes it all a language thing to me, and I see no reason to accept it.
[QUOTE=iAmaNewb;48162090]Nutella It's just chocolate peanut butter, what's with the fuzz about it?[/QUOTE] The fuzz about it is that, you don't have Nutella in your home. But when you do, which is like very rarely, you get sick in the tummy from eating it raw as is.
That entire Bless-you thing after someone sneezes.
"You must be fun at parties" as an internet argument
Butter.
Farting being "vile" Its a natural thing, why is it considered disgusting and rude. 50-60 years ago it was considered praise for a good meal. Same with belching.
[QUOTE=greeley;48219487]Farting being "vile" Its a natural thing, why is it considered disgusting and rude. 50-60 years ago it was considered praise for a good meal. Same with belching.[/QUOTE] not really nice to do it while people are eating close to you, as both the sound and smell can be really foul.
The concept of a certain group "owning" a word. With the "N word" you'll have people saying "Thats our word man, you can't say that", etc.
