Conchita Wurst is a queen, she deserved to win

 

[RatskyWatsky]

That thread in gaming side is making me consider never leaving Community threads

"No offense to gay people but I don't want gays in my videogames"

I don't feel any less sensitive than before either tbh.

Give it a few years.

 

[Masquerader]

Good Lord.

You use ~ more than I do.

I am the Lord of Tildes. Bow before me, and relenquish your Prawns, so that I may consume them.

 

[RatskyWatsky]

I have it on my username before I found out it's supposed to "mean" something. It just looked funny to me :x

What does ~~ mean?

 

[Alrus]

I stopped reading the gay related gaming topics. They're frustrating, and I feel that any decent argument will be drowned in a sea of stupid posts anyway.

Great victory for LGBTQ movements throughout Europe as Conchita won Eurovision!

Haha that's awesome. I don't like the song that much though.

 

[Masquerader]

Having browsed through that thread more thoroughly, I have come to the conclusion that people are capable of being utter pricks, whether they want to or not.

 

[RM8]

What does ~~ mean?

Nothing, really, but people use them seemingly playfully at the end of their posts~

 

[Mumei]

I just think ~ looks adorable~

My totally not new tag begs to differ.

... Right, that's it! Just you wait~

EDIT: ... Gentlemen...? ... How do you change tags...?

 

[RM8]

I use it because my tag in SSBM was RM88, and when Brawl came out it felt like a waste not using the extra character allowed on tags!

Hm, yeah, maybe, though it depends how tight your foreskin was before, if you couldn't pull it back without pain, losing a little bit of sensitivity is nothing compared to how good it feels without any pain.

Be a really good poster with a generally good moderation record, get noticed [in a positive way, you miscreants], get nominated for a moderator position, get chosen, and then go to "Edit your details" in the Control Panel.

Oh. Well, thanks. I never knew that it would be so simple and easy!

My mean Gif didn't help, did it?

Get noticed you mean? *smiles and pats hair*

 

[Caladrius]

Ah I see.
Do I have to weigh in on that debate ?

Only if you want to.

Don't believe their lies.

You mean my posts about gleefully murdering innocent Waddle Dees wasn't a good thing?

 

[Haly]

Typical 1% "bootstrap your own tag" rhetoric.

 

[Rayis]

goddam those threads on gaming, I hate it when people say "I disagree with homosexuality and same-sex relationships" there's NOTHING to disagree with, they happen and will not stop happening, and your refusal to agree that they're a thing doesn't make them any less valid. People suck sometimes.

Good morning guys! #RiseLikeAPhoenix

Interesting.

They both have their strengths and weaknesses.

Seriously? Are they playing the usual religion card, or are they being REALLY baseless?

I'm trying to play spot the difference and I'm failing.

 

[kitchenmotors]

My head hurts from the gay thread on gaming side.

If worst comes to worst, you can always wear one of those sensitivity socks they make for circumcised guys.

 

[daripad]

Guys stop going there, those people are plainly dumb, they won't change their mind

 

[SomedayTheFire]

God that thread is absolutely horrible. On the back of such a great day after the Eurovision too. so disheartening.

 

[Masquerader]

Eh, there is a difference. I'm rather religious, and... Well, i'm here without any qualms in the slightest. But aye, good point. Religion is largely baseless, that much I am entirely aware of.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

I'll stop posting in there now, I'm surprised I was able to keep cool. Even then like two or three different posters told me I was attacking them.

 

[BlueBadger]

I was awake for my circumcision which really sucked.. Just a local anaesthetic. And I found the recovery to be really painful :/ probably because

my skin was actually fused to the head so my head was never exposed at all. So when it rubbed against anything it hurt so much. I couldn't walk for the first week LOL

[Vitanimus]

Meh, I usually don't chime in on threads like that because I can usually never articulate my point in a way that sounds cohesive and calm, which is probably a bad thing.

Also ew at circumcision that sounds so painful

Spoiler

and kinda ugly

 

[SquiddyCracker]

So how come this thread doesn't have the Q?
LGBTQ rather than LGBT?

It doesn't have the T either, we are exclusionists!

Spoiler

There's a dedicated trans thread.

I'm really curious if Conchita Wurst is a transexual woman, a man doing drag or cis woman with beard but I somehow feel some people will get offended if I asked.

According to Wiki, Conchita is a gay man doing a drag.

 

[Sai-kun]

LGBT pretty much encompasses most of the chat and discussion that happens here.

Do we have any queer-identifying users who are feeling excluded by it though? I know for a fact there wouldn't be an issue in changing the thread title to be more inclusive.

So after some people in Russia and Belarus kicked up a fuss about Austria entering Eurovision with a bearded drag queen, turns out Conchita actually came third in the Russian televote and fourth in the Belarusian televote, with her overall placing being dragged down by the judges.

I chose to be awake during my surgery, the shot of the anesthetic just above the root of the penis was the most painful thing about the whole thing lol. I could see a bit what they were doing in the reflection in the ceiling, it was a bloody mess and they weren't gentle lol.

How can the skin be fused to the head?

 

[Haly]

What's Queer exactly? I thought it was synonymous with Gay.

How about renaming the thread to Genderelss Dystopia |OT4|

Queer (to me) is sort of an umbrella that can contain many identities, from sexuality to gender expression.

 

[BlueBadger]

Why?

The skin was fused to the head and the waitlist for general anaesthetic was too long and if we had waited any longer there would have been a big risk of it tearing (I was still going through puberty so.. I guess it was growing haha)

I was born like that my doctor told my dad that I'd grow out of it but I never did and it just stayed fused.

 

[Aarglefarg]

It has different meanings. One is an umbrella term for the community. Another is specific label that is used to describe a range of things and for a range of reasons. Reasons not limited to preferring the political connotations of 'queer' being non-conforming, or having a fluid sexuality, or anything else.

That lots of people think it means "gay" is a thing that has long been on my mind about it as an umbrella term, as it works against visibility.

 

[Scher]

I've always been under the impression that queer, nowadays, is more a term that represents those who wouldn't typically fit within the gender binary.
