12:41a - Bedtime for Wankers
Is this pregnancy wank? Is this grammar wank? Is this just asshat wank? YOU be the judge!
On Metaquotes, bitter_Crimson quotes dana_may thusly:
"Have you biten anyone else on you hall?" "ah..I don't know. I dont keep a 'bite list'"
"refering back to the 'bite list,' as a pregnant woman, I would honestly have a problem if you went up to me and bit me" "well, I dont bite random people. I don't have rabies."
Then Counly takes offence to it:
"Is that to imply that if she were NOT a pregnant woman, she would NOT have a problem, or that only pregnant people should be unbitten?
Dudes. Just say "I wouldn't like it". You don't need to stick idiotic qualifiers onto your statements."
And continues to wank with Amandathegreat until bedtime.

8:14a - Feminist Civil War - you're either with the Liberals or the Radicals
This little wank starts out with a (mostly) harmless post in feminist that asks Are you a Liberal or a Radical?
mintogrubb then steps up to the plate with his two cents worth: Someone has already said that this community is divided into radical feminists and liberal feminists. It seems to me that the Rads, not the Libs, have the upper hand here, and want to frame every debate by their own terms of reference. So, do we Libs want to adress the balance, or start over with a Liberal Feminist community that will allow us to put our point over without being told that we are 'selling out', 'should be angry, and if we are not, we don't understand', and ought to fall in with the Radicals, who are the only source of ultimate wisdom?
He goes on to cite a story where a father, angry his ex-wife for divorcing him, killed both the woman and his son.
The spooge begins to fly: hallelujah snarks and then adds, Why do you want to divide feminists? There aren't sides : It's not a war. joelandrewtyson observes, That story doesn't seem to support your case at all. What does an insane guy killing his family have to do with patriarchy? You're comparing apples and big, huge crazy watermellons.
More people poke holes in mintogrubb's murder story and characterization of Liberals and Radicals.
And calebsdoodee dukes it out with kamuela about the irony of the statement All generalizations are wrong.
Also, don't miss the obligatory Let's end this civil war before it starts. We're all here because we're feminists. End of story. post.

9:41a - Librarian Wank!
I've been expecting this since this community started.
Over at Library MoFo (The Society for Librarians Who Say Motherfucker), lamuella posts about parents who wait until six o'clock the night before to look for books on a school project when everyone else in the class has the same project and...well, you can read.
riurik objects to the community being used for its intended purpose. A lot. Several other harried librarians jump on him for being sanctimonious and prissy.
And finally, our esteemed moderator deems it necessary to clarify the purpose of the community to those who clearly don't get it.
Edit: Because a link to the actual post might be helpful
current mood: *sporfle!* (52 comments |comment on this)

4:05p - "It's just a breast. It's not going to jump up and bite you."
Yes, we've got breastfeeding wank.
Over at customers_suck, rita posts some stories about sucky customers, including one about a woman who breastfed in public and apparently drew lots of attention to the fact that OMGbreastfeeding!
And all is well and good...at least until harmonyfb shows up and spooges all over everything. She proceeds to reply to just about every comment in favor of rita's complaint, with such thrilling quotes as:
I don't feed my infants based on whether other people will get offended. If they do, it's too damn bad.
::waves that away:: Sorry, their problem, not mine or my baby's.
It's just a breast, for goodness' sake. It's not going to jump up and bite you. Feh to your "discreet" request.
...And then people spooge back, because OMG, breastfeeding activist! Breastfeeding activist in the dungeon comments! And they think she's a rude bitch, besides.
Small wank, but amusing nonetheless.

4:54p - Intellectual wank
Over at Mock_The_Stupid, jguy1288 makes a post about stupidity in his history class, which is totally non-wanky.
Then along comes apollyon who suggests that classes should be segregated between "smarts", "mediums" and "slows". I'd do some quoting and such, but the wank is making my head a splode.
