So I wanted to chat about the rolling up of the evening and the party and such:
Especially
And the accusation of my being non-PC (which I’m proud of, actually, in a sense, etc.)
Bitch on!
The deranged mind of everyone’s favourite ne’er-do-well

So I wanted to chat about the rolling up of the evening and the party and such:
Especially
And the accusation of my being non-PC (which I’m proud of, actually, in a sense, etc.)
Bitch on!
Was that my accusation? I seem to remember saying something along those lines, or agreeing with someone else saying that.
I missed non-PC-ness? Dammit. *pout*
I think it was “I noticed you say unPC things every now and then.” or something like that.
I’m giving you license to call me out; I like a nice intellectual argument.
Though most time it is done for fun and/or shockingness on topics I find to be sensitively insignificant.
You missed saying something to the effect of, “those little brown skinned boys like to be dominated and fucked in the ass.”
How’s my dialogue memory,?
Well, she’s not far off, I think… It’s an over-generalization, but still.
Yes, something like: “little brown boys love to be bent over and dominated….”
I asked her if they could be folded in half for easy storage in the trunk of the car and that joke was lost on her. She kept on making her point about the “brown boys” (by which it turned out she meant Italian and Greek boys, perhaps Persian boys as well), and I finally had to blurt out my bit asking her to generalize some more.
Well, you had that whole post where you were BAITING everyone to say un-PC things; that was the impetus behind my comment. I was not afraid to be un-PC in front of you because, mere days earlier, you had been bating me (and lots of other people) to be un-PC. In point of fact, you thought my un-PC-ness wasn’t un-PC enough, as I recall. (This re: my suggesting that prostitution should be legalized.)
Oh, yeah – The context completes it.
I have a great follow up to that post in my head.
She does paint with broad strokes–so theatrical!
Is it such a good follow up that we will declare you the Master Baiter?
The image of you and her in the same room takes some calibrating, even considering D’s presence 😉
The underlying part was “what personal beliefs do you hold that you are afraid to be judged by your friends about” stuff.
The intent was to try to kill some sacred cows and stuff – A bit pushy and baiting, yeah.
Tact is just saying things that aren’t true
Those rumors are lies, I tell you.
I’m half portuguese, half german. Does that count?
It probably depends on the size of the car. : )
Oh, we get along fine. I actually wouldn’t mind having a shag with her, she’s a hot girl.
Here’s the thing: I don’t need to be the center of attention all the time. This allows me to get along with people who do. Gio likes to be the star, so when the party got small, it was fine to let her tell her stories.
I remember, earlier in the party, her taking her shirt off. I missed the reason why she was doing so, but my immediate thought on turning ’round and seeing her bosoms was: “attention whore!”
: )
She really is, but otherwise I find her quite charming. Most attention whores are downright boring, but who ever tires of hearing of the sexual exploits of others? Not me!
I rarely take off my shirt at a private party. Some things are better left to gay bars.
I didn’t think you wouldn’t get along–just that you’re both strong personalities with rather different styles. Mentally imaging how that would pan out was a bit challenging, is all.
Being PC and being tactful are not the same thing by a long stretch. “Tact is just saying things that aren’t true” is, in my honest opinion, purest crap. (How’s that for tactful? 🙂 Being tactful is based on (i) being aware of both the emotions involved and the facts involved; (ii) being aware that you probably do not fully know or understand all the emotions and facts involved; (iii) wanting to make a constructive contribution to a situation. Tact takes quite a bit of mental energy, which is why I tend to think of people who disdain tact a priori as lazy and self-centered. Think bullies.
Don’t get me wrong. There are plenty of situations where one should abandon tact, but do not throw the baby out with the bathwater. One should understand the rules, before breaking them.
In the south we like to say: “Tact is telling someone where to go so nicely they actually look forward to the trip.”
I’ve been told I can be very tactful.
*grin* Well it helped that you handily out-gunned her without ever taking your shirt off..;)
Oh NUH UH she didn’t…
This on top of the herpes vs. scabies comments she made that sent Soren scuttling into a different room?
Wow. And I thought -I- was a master of the inappropriate.
You SO can.
Mame! Nah, it’s not a competition. But yes. 😛
Oh, I certainly agree.: It’s absolute crap.
The Tact line is from “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” from a character (Cordelia) who doesn’t understand the purpose of Tact. She was indeed the epitome of self-centeredness and intellectually lazy. 🙂
COME ON. Who isn’t a fan of scabies? 😉
Is that a euphemism?
It’s a quadruple[-bypass] entendre, actually.
I think it’s actually something closer to: Tact is just not saying true stuff.
P.S. I like you on your soapbox.
Oh, do you want a quote war, pal?
I don’t think it’s so much of a war… as it is a war that I’ve already won. : )
At least she got when I made my comment about having to give up my membership in the Council of La Raza. It didn’t actually stop her, but as she left she did say she hoped she didn’t offend me. I told her she did not, which was true. There is a difference between my taking offense (which I did not, she was clearly not worth it) and something being offensive.
‘Tis but a scratch!
I didn’t even know the Portuguese made cars!
*meaningful cough*
My personal favorite, which I use quite often, is: “I’m not mean, I’m truthful. It’s not my fault that the two look so much alike on most days.”
Of course it’s a competition! Are you NEW?
Well as a Conversation Killing end-game move, it was pretty inspired as subjects go.
Is that a Suzanne Sugarbaker quote?
No, that’s a Rob quote. They just look the same sometimes…
I refuse to be the Girl Who Competes With All Other Girls About Everything.
Plus, I’m hopelessly confident/arrogant. So I already think I’m better than everyone. Although I would have liked to talk bj technique with her…
It seems that this particular filter would likely be a place where discussions about bj technique would be a subject near and dear to everyone…
I wanted a girl’s opinions. She is barely a girl, but she’ll do.
I’ve had plenty of advice from men on technique. It’s…well, I just wondered what a girl would say.
