Jesus Christ in a Lube Jar!! – Don’t forgive them, for they know what the fuck they’re doing!
Someday in the future people will read about this shit and find it hard to believe.
What? Special rights for straights?
I don’t get the obsession with the freaking bathrooms.
I was thinking that exact thing, assuming we have a future, of course. It’s like witch hunts. The entire community was stampeded by crazy-uncle e-mails and the like. Unbelievable. Baseless mass hysteria.
I find US bathrooms, public ones, very weird and distinctly lacking proper privacy.
But I can’t see the relevance on this subject?
Unfortunately, a sizeable chunk of the American public is perversely preoccupied with everyone else’s sex lives and/or whatever shape their pee holes might be. Ridiculous and sick.
There is a freakout among some on the right that transexuals (gasp!) will be hanging out in the Women’s room. And, then, what if straight guys “pretend” to be a trans so they can go in the Women’s Rm. And then… It’s really a weird, weird thing to be worried about.
The “yes, repeal” votes prevailed over the “no repeal” camp 51.4 percent to 48.6 percent," no doubt they’ll call that a mandate…
Why does it always come down to the bathrooms? What scary stuff can be conjured by just saying the word “bathroom”?
Remember… these are the same people who elect … well, you know…
Too bad we don’t seem to want to spend money on education.
Some of us might learn something from this bit of the newspaper article:
The Rev. Phil Snider, of Brentwood Christian Church, has been outspoken about gay rights since this issue first came before council. On Tuesday evening, he was clearly disappointed. "This is heartbreaking," he said.
Not all Christian denominations are teavangelicals. Just thought it should be said.
Bathrooms, pizzas and cakes – Oh, my!!
The city is also offering discounted garbage pick up rates to everyone with a lawn jockey displayed in their front yard.
Exactly how are US public bathrooms lacking in privacy?
Like 20 minutes from now?
For me it was 30 minutes ago.
This is why I am a misanthrope.
Doesn’t surprise me. Missouri is a cesspool of ignorance, intolerance, racism and religious nutjobbery. Nearly every freeway advertisement features aborted fetuses or Jesus (Can Jesus be considered a late-term abortion?)
Edit: The only place more frightening to drive through is Kansas, where you’re miles and miles from any human–no towns, no cities, no homes–yet out in the middle of a field you’ll see a Jesus sign or an anti-abortion sign. You see these signs fairly regularly, every 20 or 30 miles, and you realize it’s not just one guy, one old farmer with a Jesus boner. It starts to creep you out. You wonder where all the people are, if they’re hiding in the hills just waiting for someone’s car to break down so they can grab them (“Hey there, buddy, looks like you got a flat. Well git on in here, we’ll see if we can help you out.”) and hang them on meathooks.
Where there is a one-seater mens’ room available but not the one-seater womens’ I’ve been known to step in. I didn’t realize this verged on civil disobedience.
