My experiment should have been more varied and drawn out before I revealed the scientific agenda behind it. Bet you all would have loved the CZs

You need to be STOPPED!

They didn't like the design, plain and simple.

I find myself wishing you hadn't started this thread or at least that I'd never seen it.

Why? Because it reveals the house of cards you all believe in? If marriage and diamonds and all that is the end all be all, why would my stupid opinions on this institution I can't even participate in matter?

You'd think I was banning straight marriage. Everyone is way too sensitive.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

No, because I like you, and this thread is some bullshit, or rather the way you've gone about it is. Maybe I expected more from you? Yep, that's why. The topic itself is fine.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

okay. but supa, it really does come across as belittling to women saying that. i've said it a bazillion times on this thread- i'm not looking for a sparkly rock, but for something beautiful i'd want to wear everyday.

the entire org has lost it's humor. COMPLETELY Good grief folks.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

Or...

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

i think p&r has permanently damaged me.

fhqwhgads said:

Or.....what? You can tell me I haven't lost my humor, neither am I going to buckle and fall off the cliff if you say something I might not like

But look what happened at the mere notion that women's expectations were even verbally threatened. Even you got in a snit!

Personally, I think many insecurities were revealed. I have absolutely no doubt that Carrie, Valory, Laurel and the other women who have said they would like whatever their partner gets them, that they are being truthful but look how out of control people got at the mere thought of a diamond not being given! It is absolutely ridiculous to act like women do NOT have this expectation around these stupid gems.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

Just that I think you may be on your own with this one. Many folks don't seem to be feeling it, be it the humour or otherwise. I'm not sure it's obvious what you were aiming for. I know I certainly don't know if you're being serious or just baiting. Either way it just comes across a bit... crap?

fhqwhgads said:

Well I understand that you all have your world and aren't used to being challenged about it but it says a whole hell of a lot that many men were silent, or coddling the dream and that women were just outraged that a man actually believe in symbolism itself!

I got in a snit (I've never heard that before ) over your mischevious, pedantic responses and how you straight up ignored or glossed over some peoples' individual perspectives. I actually think what you're saying has merit, and does apply to some, but delighting in knowingly irritating the crap out of folks seems silly at best. Please, please don't come with the standard 'joking', 'you're all too serious' backtrack!

fhqwhgads said:

I didn't ignore them, I just didn't obsess on them like they obsessed on me I am stating my basic opinion and joking around like there is no tomorrow and you all need to calm the hell down!

But what the hell does my opinion matter? You are married, Val is flying off to get a real diamond on and exotic island and Laurel will get a non obnoxious anything but heart shaped ring someday. You're all doing exactly what you want so really, how can my little ole opinion even affect you? That is what's cracking me up.

What are you, the gay Jesus sent to show all us straight folk the light?

The ring thing doesn't really apply in my specific circumstances.

It affects me because it's twatty. I like you, and want to like you rather than think you twatty.

That's right. I am the gay Jesus! Did it really take you this long to figure it out

Believe me, I had to rip the church out of my head. I know how scary it is to have your beliefs challenged. Like little chickens during an eclipse, people went buckwild to even have to contemplate a different scenario than the one that they are sold from birth by previous generations, the church, the government and the rest of society. I just pulled back the fabric on the matrix is what I did. It's OK that you were all scared.

But like the savior I am, I will comfort and console you in your darkness. I now give you permission to seek and give the biggest diamonds possible as the symbol of your commitment and love.

The justification! Here's what I was trying to do folks. Lighten up. Don't take yourselves so seriously. It was a joke. No, it was serious, an experiment to reveal such and such and challenged so and so...

I'd recognise the final stages of a bait thread anywhere now that I'm a seasoned org veteran.

Oh Supa...

see, this is why all my threads are about food.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

There isn't a diamond big enough to convey how much love I have for my wife, but I'm gonna buy a whole bunch and glue them together, for the sake of my marriage.

fhqwhgads said:

If that is all this is to you, why did you get all serious and scared?

fhqwhgads said:

I want you to photowhore that shit when you're done so I can ignore her and those diamonds and worship you I love Romeos

Anxiety said:

Yeah, but always beating up on us carnivores and pushing your veggie agenda.

Still, it's way better than having that whole 'raw lifestyle' forced upon you.

fhqwhgads said:

well, it will probably be a wise investment since most diamonds have large traces of heterite, a little-known form of radiation which stuns and weakens most homosexuals, thus dampening their powers until your wife can get away to the safety of a designated straight-people neighborhood safe space.

This is now shaping up to be the most promising and rememberable thread of 2008 so far.






And that's no small feat!

And just think what you all are going to do with your massive feelings on the subject. The men are going to do olympic hurdles to insure their girlfriend gets the best and the women will be the recipients of so much joy! You bitches should be thanking me right about now

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

I didn't get scared, lol. Serious perhaps, because as I already told you, I like you and this is twatty. I think your posts on this thread have been a bit shit.

Anxiety said:

Plus I now know the real reason not to go out late at night.

The only thing that would make this thread any better than it is, is if Justin had started it with a completely different subject, and we just jacked the shit out of that.


Seriously.

fhqwhgads said:

Because I am not trying to swathe the bullshit in pretty diapers? Ok Everyone seems to be honest about the subject. I think men should save their money if in fact the diamond is just a symbol. That's just how I feel
