I'm confused by the "and you know your baby will be a boy" part, are they saying that 'Gotham' is an acceptable name for a boy but obviously inappropriate for a girl

or maybe it's because Batdads wouldn't be that arsed about getting up to rescue a girl
Name your kid Gotham because he's going to have to get really good at fighting in elementary school and eventually become an MMA champion and buy you a house.

I think I spent so much time gawking at those gross veterans humor memes that I posted upthread that facebook thinks I am a creepy conservative. For the past few weeks I have been unable to get rid of suggested groups along these lines:

suggested groups would probably be a good thread on its own -- at one point I had "Beautiful Bi-Polar Babes United Against Domestic Violence" "Single Mustachians," and "Plus Size Flava" all suggested at the same time

I do now have facial hair, but at the time I was clean shaven, and hence there was barely a word of any of those that described me, except that I am against domestic violence.

As he says in this video "if you can't scientifically prove that you live on a ball you don't live on a ball..." All we have is theories spun by the Masonic elites and faked images of earth which are easily proven that they have been faked...

it's not even real stupidity or insanity nowadays, it's just the personae people adopt for attention and friendship
having said that, I've been going on for a long time about what "belief" really means and it seems to me to be multifaceted: the performative, the social, the identitarian, the ideological, the spiritual and the unconscious all play into the concept but none of them define it or make up the totality of it. this is one of the reasons Dawkinites are idiots. memes feed into this too as they become this field of statements without depth, without sincerity, just endlessly playing at rhetoric when their real purpose is anything but the dissemination of knowledge, arcane or otherwise.

ps lol "forward" so basically it's been floating around unaltered for at least 10-15 years
it's one of those subversive conservative forwards where they can begin to admit conflicted feelings of sympathies for gay people through a familiar stereotypical perspective, all in the safe space of hating anyone that might be "rather Arabic-looking"

The fact that it involves an "arabic-looking" person on a plane with no reference to terrorism makes me think it might even be pre-2001
― Fedora Dostoyevsky (man alive), Friday, 9 February 2018 18:48 (six years ago) link
xp Yeah I thought the same - recruiting a 'gay man' to get a shot in on these awful Arabic women who all demand to be called princesses and hold up normal operating procedures. There's something to be said about the trend for racist cant to depict non-white people as obstructive and frustrating, feel like there's a long history to this depiction.

Conservatives also often like to hold up "gay rights" as an example of our superiority to muslim countries, only to discard them the moment they are no longer comparing us to muslim countries
