But noman said WOMAN, not WOMEN. Meaning he was referring to a singular person.

Re: What made you feel giddy today?

There must be a significant difference in the amount of X between groups to make it worth remarking. He may not be saying that all men are reliable, but it carries the implication that there are a great many more reliable men than there are women.

>Implying
He didn't make any claims or remarks about the difference between the groups. That there's any difference at all comes only from implication. It doesn't say anything about the quantity of the difference.

If the difference is not significant it doesn't bear remarking. You don't compare apples and oranges and go "Wow, oranges are round", because apples are round too.

Semantics are important, guys.

He didn't. He didn't make any comparison. Anything about men in his post is only implied.If I say "wow, all planets are round" that doesn't mean I think that most or all moons are not round.

Instead of my usual "Devil's Advocate" position that I usually take, currently occupied by HentaiSpider, I will jump straight to the "Devil's Asshole" position and say.
Because of a more fluid and open learning structure, women are inherently driven by emotional experience as opposed to strict crystallized mapping, leading them to be much more unpredictable in nature than their male counterparts.
Both unpredictable, women more so.

After 8 years of driving I'm going to have a car titled to me only for the first time!

UUUuuuugh. The moment I saw this post I knew it would be trouble. And, like I expected, sinful jumped at it. I guess women aren't that unpredictable after all.

Now, on to things that made me giddy. The Itch has returned into my fingers. I feel like writing, I just don't know what yet.

Re: What made you feel giddy today?

I have no fucking clue who that is.
Kusa...I went and did some research! She comes from the cover art of a Polish sci-fi fantasy book by Olga Gromyko called Zawód: Wiedźma część 2. (The Witch part 2!) For any more info I would have to be Polish, call one of my friends, or try a lot harder!

I really think she looks like Mara Jade though. That's why I like it. Mara Jade casting energy lightning.... mmmmm.... :) She's even got that lightning crawling in the palm of her hand... ;)

Re: What made you feel giddy today?

Sitting with my friend while talking about the approaching con and figuring out that we can actually get her into a costume that fits with the rest of us with little to no extra effort on her part. And coming up with a skit based on it at the same time *laughs*

Wonder how many people are going to stop us when they realize Vincent Valentine and Hojo are tooling around together?

Re: What made you feel giddy today?

Speaking of cars and weather, driving during a tornado. You'd kind of have to be there to see what we mean, but let's say "white nuckled terror" got passed up and the dial went all the way to "OMG THIS IS SO CRAZY!", and therefore a little back on the awesome side.

Or maybe I'm just crazy, IDK.

And before you ask, yes, we had a good reason for being out in that weather, we didn't just drive during a tornado for the hell of it.

Re: What made you feel giddy today?

Did a cow fly past going like moooo and spinning? I know you have them because you live in the boonies. I wanted to say something about Pierce Brosnan but then I remembered that was Dante's Peak not Twister. x.x Personally, I think tornadoes are even more terrifying than volcanoes and hurricanes...only second behind earthquakes . . . and asteroid impacts. Glad you're okay cutie cheeks.

Lol, no, but the car was like being pushed sideways hard and we had to slow down to like 25 to avoid losing our lane (this is on a road people normally take at around 85, despite the speed limit).

Also one time before this they all made us go in the theatre basement because of a tornado warning. A siren makes an excellent addition to jazz music btw.

My four teeshirts and hoodie should be arriving today if the USPS tracker is correct.

So while my four tee's and hoodie didn't arrive yesterday my Troll (Homestuck) tee arrived instead along with a little note writen by one of the characters. Which I will now treasure forever.

Re: What made you feel giddy today?

I've started writing my first multi-chapter work. It's a fanfiction, though, but small steps are important :eek:
