because it's offensive to use your equipment correctly. and clearly it amounts to racism.

I would totally buy one of those shirts. I like girls

In case anyone is actually interested in reading some convoluted spy stuff, I just started this Wordpress blog to act as my campaign log for my "Burn Notice" inspired d20 Modern campaign.

So far it's been really fun, my players are really into it.  I figured when I do my writeups I'll do them a bit tongue-in-cheek, from the characters' point of view, and so far I think it actually works, if the posts are read in order.

A word of warning: you WILL get caught up in the story if you read this.

Elaborate, please.




I think it's very appropriate that they used the icons commonly found to indicate which is the men's bathroom and which is the woman's bathroom as their philosophy is generally full of shit.

Thank you.  Thank you.  THANK YOU!  I was hoping I wasn't the only one that noticed that "using your equipment correctly" thing.  Also, I second xolly's motion for a better explanation.

I just think it's ridiculous how vitriolic some of the comments on the news page are. these guys are reading into this shirt way too much. its a joke people.

in any case i think the very idea of being "proud" of some thing you claim to be born with is idiotic. you should be proud of your achievements, not how you prefer to achieve orgasm.

To anyone who writes anything:

Systemic and Systematic are two different words with two very different meanings. Please learn their meanings and how to use them correctly. Thank you.

This was a message from the "Fuck You, Learn Your Own GodDamn Language That You're So Proud Of That You Don't Want People Speaking Other Languages Around You" Council.

While leery and wary are mostly interchangeable, WEARY is a completely different word and CANNOT be substituted for either one!  fuckers.

Systematic misuse of the words "systemic" and "systematic" is systemic on the internets.
