Anyone who judges anyone based on gender, race or sexuality does not deserve the right to breathe my air.

Live your life how you want to live it, not how a few loudmouthed bigots feel you should live.

I'm glad you're proud of who you are :)
YEAH! I AGREE! TOUCHDOWN! DOWN WITH BIGOTS!

*please note* This statement obviously does not apply to me. I reserve the right to judge others for judging people based on ideas, sexuality, race, or creed. Nevermind the fact that I'm basically doing that which I claim to look down upon, since the idea of bigotry is one that is "safe" to dislike, no one will point out my glaring lapses in logic.



It is not unfair to judge a person on their values and actions, since those define a person and are based on their choices.

It is most definitely an incorrect and judgmental thing to judge a person on race, gender,  sexuality, etc, something that isn't exactly a choice.

But then you enter the moral shaky ground of choice. For example, if I lived in the Bible belt and I have been raised with the rhetoric that homosexuality is wrong, is it wrong for me to adopt the general mindset of the area around me? One could make a case for learning to make your own decisions, a question of nature vs environment, but the option is still there of choice for a vast majority of situations.

For example, though I am hungry, I am not forced to act upon my natural need of that, if I didn't want to. I could starve myself. In fact, I'd say the biggest part of humanity is our ability to resist the natural urges of our body. So, if homosexuality or various other pathological pitfalls (such as feeling you are born in wrong body) is an urge that we can ignore, then you are making the choice to embrace that aspect of your person.

There is nothing wrong with that, but judging the whole worth of another person based on one aspect of their beliefs is just the same folly as that one claims they are against. Maybe he just isn't comfortable with (insert thing here) but is a great father, contributing law-abiding member of society that saves orphanages from burning children on his weekends. Saying that he "doesn't deserve to breath my air" is a bit much, is all I'm saying.

Understanding breeds empathy, on both sides of the street. It's easy to embrace the side of one that people believe is correct, but it is far harder to do the same to someone who takes what is now an unpopular stance.

I like mudkipz.

I have so many points! I feel like the fat kid at the candy store that just found a passed out co-ed on the floor! Thanks!

Now where to spend it...I was thinking about diversifying my portfolio into foreign markets, though with the situation in Europe, investor opinion of that whole scene is a bit shaky...but fortune favors the bold...I'm sure my broker can get me a good exchange rate for Slytherin points...

It's an app, You're meant to show yourself well on first appearance.

We're taking you as a troll at this very moment.
Troll is such an offensive word...how exactly am I trolling? I've put together a very lucid post designed to highlight my more appealing aspects. Had a done something like "TL;DR" or "Cool story, bro", I'd see your point.

Can't we all just get along?

I really like the anime, I forget the name, where there is that one plucky good-looking hero who never gives up despite everyone's misgivings of him. He's surrounded by a bevy of beautiful women who inevitably fall in love with him when he does some selfless act of service (because it only takes one). Of course, he is completely oblivious to it all and continues doing his thing, which leads to many comical situations. There won't be any real plot in this anime, but the blatant fan service and appeal to the male demographic will drive it forward.

Or that one anime where there is a random schoolgirl that for some arbitrary reason has magical powers that transports her to a magical/alternate realm where she will meet a native guy that is not only really hot, but willing to risk everything to defend a girl he just met (thinking with the wrong head, mayhaps?). She will start out weak, but thanks to some random gimmick (can tell the future, make awesome sandwiches, awakens hiddens powers etc), she will come into her own and discover a bit about herself. Would-be viewers will draw inevitable parallels and will be invigorated to improve themselves as well; this will last as long as it takes for them to leave the gym they just joined on whim.

Or wait...what about the one with giant robots where the plucky headstrong hero yells his attacks a lot? I love that one!

Or wait...what about that one where the plucky headstrong hero yells his attacks a lot? That one is pretty cool too. I really like how all his allies stand around waiting for a 1v1 each encounter...fate of the world be damned. Also it takes like ten episodes until he decides to fight all out/be inspired by tragic loss/flashbacks to occur...

Yum.
Icwatudidthar!
Be right back. Going to do a training montage with an random old person so that I can go back and impressively beat the person that outclassed me before.

Well, for me, where I'm constantly pulling shifts in a trailer, or waiting in my car for a formation. The PSV, hopefully, will fulfill my entertainment needs.
You mean you lose to me in Mario Kart. And Starcraft 2.

Oh man, remember when I beat you with zerg after just installing the game and didn't know Queens were! Hilarious!

"Elves are wonderful. They provoke wonder.
Elves are marvellous. They cause marvels.
Elves are fantastic. They create fantasies.
Elves are glamorous. They project glamour.
Elves are enchanting. They weave enchantment.
Elves are terrific. They beget terror.
The thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.
No one ever said elves are nice.
Elves are bad."

1. What is your current Runescape username, and what are your past usernames if any?

I don't really have a user name. But who are we, as human beings, to be confined by such strict parameters as stats, names, and whether or not we actually play a game? I'd like to believe that my sterling personality, charming disarming good looks, offbrand humor, untarnished modesty, and ability to string random adjectives together would provide sufficent reason for me to join as an honorary member of this guild/clan/gathering of people/cult.

2. Tell us about your RuneScape account and history (e.g. when you started, what your RSN means, favourite activities etc.): Well, I was born to a lower upper middle class blue collar peasant family. It was a cold night, the type where a certain stillness hangs about the air, like storm ready to break. My mother, bless her heart, had just ejected me from her womb in rather traumatic and painful event called childbirth and she was resting on her laurels, when my father said, "My decadent dreary didactic dear, damn dancing dragons dwaddle decidingly through the depths..."

After the initial confusion wore off (my father got that a lot), my user name came into being.

Favorite activities? I like hitting the one key repeatedly as I watch my character two frames of animation into victory against very linear mobs for the sole purpose of gathering arbritrary bits of code in the guise of pixels.

3. Tell us about yourself (Name (if you are comfortable), gender, age, country, hobbies, music, talents, likes and dislikes):

Name: Alliteration
Gender: Yes
Age: 26
Country: America
Hobbies: Pulling the "do not pull off" tags from pillows and mattresses; pressing the crouch button repeatedly over the fallen bodies of my enemies; doing 360 Jesus Christ Superman Air Fly Kickflips off half full pipes while catching Mountain Dew and quaffing it (just like drinking, but spill more); making obscure references to internet memes and taking the credit for being clever; shopping for mass marketed individuality via the consumer store Hot Topic.

Music: I like electric anything. Electric guitars, violins, vibrators, my toaster has an IP address and my toilet seat has a MAC, I bet you aren't even reading this anymore, so I will continue to wax on about nothing. Keke zerg rush.

Talents: I do this thing with my tongue...

Likes: Things that appeal to me and that are fun.
Dislikes: Things that don't appeal to me and that aren't fun.

4. How did you hear about us and what makes you want to join WG or DG? Also, which of these two clans are you applying for?Well, you see, the magnetic resonance of the sheer awesomeness of your clan permeated the thin wall that seperates reality, forcibly inserting itself like the obligatory fatfriend of a hotgirl at any given social situation into my Google search engine. So, I decided...why not?

5. If you have been in other clans before, what clans were they and what was your involvement with them?I would regulary play dingdongditch and throw eggs at their cars. They didn't like me much. Cliques are a savage part of human social interaction...

6. Have you read, understood and agree to abide by the rules of this clan? Ummmm...is this a trick question? Do you expect me to say no or something? Like trying to sneaksubliminalmessageit in or something?

Hello there WG/DG members.
Since I have been getting quite a few questions relating to being a transsexual.
I decided I would make a thread to educate the clan on it. :)
Here are some videos:
What is Transsexualism? Facts About Being a Transsexual
Fear and Being a Transsexual

Definitions:
Transsexualism: an individual's identification with a gender inconsistent or not culturally associated with his or her assigned sex. Simply put, it defines a person whose assigned sex at birth conflicts with his or her psychological gender. A medical diagnosis can be made if a person experiences discomfort as a result of a desire to be a member of the opposite sex,[3] or if a person experiences impaired functioning or distress as a result of that gender identification.[4] Transsexualism is stigmatized in many parts of the world but has become more widely known in Western culture in the mid to late 20th century, concurrently with the sexual revolution and the development of sex reassignment surgery (SRS). Discrimination or negative attitudes towards transsexualism often accompany certain religious beliefs or cultural values. There are cultures that have no difficulty integrating people who change gender roles, often holding them with high regard, such as the traditional role for 'two-spirit' people found among certain native American tribes
Transgendered Vs Transsexual Vs Intersex: People who identify as transgender or transsexual are usually people who are born with typical male or female anatomies but feel as though they've been born into the "wrong body." For example, a person who identifies as transgender or transsexual may have typical female anatomy but feel like a male and seek to become male by taking hormones or electing to have sex reassignment surgeries.

People who have intersex conditions have anatomy that is not considered typically male or female. Most people with intersex conditions come to medical attention because doctors or parents notice something unusual about their bodies. In contrast, people who are transgendered have an internal experience of gender identity that is different from most people.

Many people confuse transgender and transsexual people with people with intersex conditions because they see two groups of people who would like to choose their own gender identity and sometimes those choices require hormonal treatments and/or surgery. These are similarities. It's also true, albeit rare, that some people who have intersex conditions also decide to change genders at some point in their life, so some people with intersex conditions might also identify themselves as transgender or transsexual.

In spite of these similarities, these two groups should not be and cannot be thought of as one. The truth is that the vast majority of people with intersex conditions identify as male or female rather than transgender or transsexual. Thus, where all people who identify as transgender or transsexual experience problems with their gender identity, only a small portion of intersex people experience these problems.

It's also important to understand the differences between these two groups because in spite of some similarities they face many different struggles, including different forms of discrimination. The differences between transgender and transsexual and intersex have been understood by lawmakers in countries such as Australia where lawmakers have publicly acknowledged that people with intersex conditions have distinct needs from people who identify as transgender or transsexual.

People who identify as transgender or transsexual also face discrimination and deserve equality. We also believe that people with intersex conditions and folks who identify as transgender or transsexual can and should continue to work together on human rights issues; however, there are important differences to keep in mind so that both groups can work toward a better future.

Also,
being a transsexual has nothing to do with my sexuality. I have good friends who are transsexuals and they are completely "straight." They like girls but they feel as though they should be a girl, rather than a boy; or vice versa.

Just thought this might clear up some questions you all might have towards me. :)
You could have saved like five minutes of my life if you'd pull a page from Cartman and went, "Screw you guys, I'll do what I want!" Which is basically the entire post in a nutshell.

Interesting sidenote: I am a cyborg fireman schoolgirl with questionably loose morals and an even less stringent slippery slopes of sexy sex decadence in concerns to teaching facility. Pleased to meet you.
