I'm in the midst of a flamewar. Post something funny for me to laugh at between getting pissed off at close-minded yahoos.

1. never leave the Lounge without the donkey.

next time you head out, take a ride on Dangle.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

2. Unfortunately, I don't think...

I should be bringing anything called "Dangle" into the thread.

6. If you disagree, fine.

I'm really sick of the people that are blatantly transphobic...referring to her as "it" and such.

9. I don't disagree. I think everyone deserves equal respect.

I might have been caught referring to an MtF as "he" once or twice, but only out of habit cause I know the gal. Also had no idea it was so offensive.

12. A slip is okay.

When my friend came out as an FtM, I slipped a few times and called him "she." I had known him as a girl longer than I had as a guy. What really matters is that you're not a bigot. :)

7. They say ostrich is low in fat, but you eat more of it.

11. Before I stopped eat red meat & poultry, I found it very filling.

Used to get ostrich burgers at Fuddruckers. They were very good.

15. Oh dear

That is a nasty one.
Let's see.

Not exactly funny but how about the last paragraph in Candide by Votaire?

Pangloss sometimes said to Candide:
"There is a concantenation of events is this best of all possible worlds; for if you had not been kicked out of a magnificent castle for love of Miss Cungonde: if you had not stabded the Baron: if you had not been put into the inquisition: if you had not walked all over America: if you had not lost all your sheep from the fine country of El Dorado: you would not be here eating perserved citrones an pistachio-nuts."
"All that is very well," aswered Candide, "But let us cultivate our garden."

That whole book darkly amuses me to this day.

16. I like pistachios.

I haven't read . I have it though. I should get around to it, one of these days.
