*Linguist Lissar* The phrase "you guys" does not only refer to men. As English does not have a regular second person plural that is different from the singular, many dialects try to fill this gap by using varying constructions. Some dialects in the east have "youse", while in the south they have "y'all". In my particular dialect "you guys" is by far the most common in everyday speech.
So, I believe she means it is the fault of everyone.
Here in the Florida, everybody says yall. I hate it, native Floridian and I've never picked it up. You guys is my preferred method.
Are you an english major perchance, Lissar?

I'm okay with blaming men on everything, we have it pretty good so it all evens out.
Anyway, time for some educational reading:
Are Whales Smarter Than We Are?

Every time you go on a linguist tirade it reminds me of this
Hahahah. That is one classy hobo, looking at some porn in the Central Library.
How did you like Seattle? Hows it match up compared to where you live now? I hear the weather is quite dreary, and I'm used to the sun.

Actually studied Japanese and Art in college, but I'm planning to go for my Masters in linguistics.
I earned a certificate in language teaching which piqued my interest in linguistics and now I've been self-studying the subject for awhile.Every time you go on a linguist tirade it reminds me of this
Wordiness is the best thing to increase.
Seattle is fucking awesome. I only know a few other U.S cities (DC, NY, Chicago, Texas), and the weather in Seattle trumps them all. Sure you'll get a lot of rain, but what I liked about it is that it rarely gets extremely cold or extremely hot like other places.
Not to mention that living surrounded by lakes, trees and the Mt. Rainer on the horizon is just lovely.
Nothing wrong with being a prude. I'm more of one than I seem!

Guys in porn don't do it for me either. They look like scary ex convicts most of the time.

I dunno. They're pretty great.
They're really creepy D:

Thats awesome! You're stronger than I am, to take up the mantle of teaching. Don't have the patience for that personally.
Damn, don't convince me too much now. I have to wait another two years!

Well ladybro but you know usually they bang dudes. I specifically mentioned those cuz I find impossible not to see them enjoying their time so much and not wanting to do something like that.But I don't like girls
James Deen is pretty good and normal looking, but maybe too kinky. Johnny Sins is so good if you don't mind baldies. And Manuel Ferrara seems to always bring the best of his partners. A lot of the time, though, is about the fun they're having and how much they're into each other than how attractive they are.
Go do your homework gurl.
I find James Deen a little bit much, as he enjoys choking the ladies. Nothing wrong at all with a bit of roughness, but I think choking is a bit exxxcessive.

You're allowed to not be interested in pornography. I don't find it all that engaging.
Love the smutty bits of books though.

Unless it's BDSM it's not that excessive. And hey I said he was kinky!

This thread's just got interesting
My guy is like that too, I think I've seen more porno than him!
Eh its not the end of the world, watching porno or liking it doesn't make you more into sex or more interesting when it comes to sex.

Hey if you want to explain more or something, you know you can... And if not, you can do that, too!I know nothing
I just think it's something fun and it's missing out, but there's nothing wrong with not liking it. You're still my bro.

In other news....
I've been home from class for about seven hours now and I've done nothing but play with my phone, start Mass Effect 3, and make a sandwich.
Can anybody here make me feel a little less useless? Maybe by posting all of the nothing you've done today too
I took a shower, washed the dishes, called my dog "lazy," and am now about to start playing more Pokemon. I'm also talking to my best friend via AIM.
Not very productive, is it?
Yes.
I love it.
Maybe today would be the perfect day to shave, another thing to add to your "stuff I did today" list.
show us your facial hair though before its gone!

I wanted to make you look productive by telling how little I've done today but thinking about my day made me realise I've actually done a lot compared to you. SorryIn other news....

Thats okay Baconsaurus, you have an awesome name so you are forgiven.
I have an issue being productive before nightfall. I have a bunch of chemistry and calculus problems to do, but for some reason if the sun is up, my backpack and all its contents sheathe themselves in the shadows, never to be seen until glorious Sol descends beneath the horizon.

Those look delicious, and I think I have pretty much all the ingredients for them.
I think I'll give this a go, and maybe give it a twist.
