Oh, certainly.

For some reason this conversation feels like the conversation that would occur when two people outside the room are arguing loudly.

WTF thread, you've been on a roll apparently. I dunno if I want to see what caused 3 pages of arguments in a short amount of time.

Only 3?
It started at least since my post about LBGT... so at least 6 pages. 3 of them were about LBGT.
And another 3 about Boh getting banned (that may or may not have been banned because he took part in the conversation in a rather active manner).

[Aklyon]

Not the small default pages.

[Orange Wizard]

There's ~6 pages of it on 25ppp, so...

[hector13]

Evidently the gravity of a banhammering is too much for us to resist!

Yeah.

The thing is that, on a pragmatic level, gender should either be abolished

This is almost like you channeled Bohandas as this seemed to be his mindstate. And as pronouns didn't reflect the non-existent gender dynamic (as he spoke from ideal as people talking about religion with him will corroborate) they either be abolished or reflect something else. Like physical sex. Elsewise it is pointless to keep them at all. And thus he tried to use pronouns that reflected physical sex.

Bohandas was adamant that the word meant the same thing as sex, and refused to see from anyone else's point of view or show any empathy at all. That's very, very, different from what Cinder was saying.

[TheBiggerFish]

And that too but GUYS (AND GALS (AND PERSONS OF OTHER OR INDETERMINATE GENDER)) WE SHOULD MAYBE STOP TALKING ABOUT THAT NOW.

Seriously, it's gone on enough that either we should start a thread, or just cut it out.

HOW DARE YOU TBF

[Sonlirain]

Not the small default pages.

I have 50 ppp.
My post about LBGT is on page 1973.
By page 1975 the LBGT arguement is slowly dying off but someone notices that Boh got B&.
We still mention LBGT from that point onwards (altho far from the intensity of the first 2 pages.)
Ok it's not 6 pages but "only" 5.

OMGUS vote, huh?  Always suspected you had it out for me.

How have I never seen this before?

Cameron approves, incidentally.

In NZ today is Waitangi Day, also known as "that day we get a holiday because of some treaty or something".

There's a bunch of Maori activists who make a big deal of it, because apparently their ancestors got shafted when they were made British citizens and the Crown hasn't made up for it, and this year they barred the PM from speaking at the Waitangi celebrations. So now a bunch of anti-Maori-activist-activists have decided to start calling today New Zealand day, and really it's just insufferable whiners all over.
