    Weigh In: #Me Too!!! And continuing the conversation on political correctness

    in Channel Zero

    Posted

    I was writing a much longer reply but realized I am too tired and this doesn't matter to me, so I condensed it down to this:

     

     

    I agree that being a shitty person isn't exclusive to one gender, and I apologize for misreading your words. The way some of your sentences flowed made me visualize someone fuming behind a keyboard, but that could be my biases playing their part in my framing an opinion of someone who thinks this is a bigger problem than I do.

    I just don't really understand why you're so bent out of shape about this.

     

    (rapper being removed)

    There are other black men being "toxic" as well though and I'm also not offended that they took that portion out. Or any other portion. They obviously aren't saying only white males can be toxic because there are literally other race males in the same commercial being toxic.

     

    (line of men repeating "boys will be boys")

    I didn't see it as saying "men can be overwhelmingly toxic" I saw it as saying "we've been repeating this boys will be boys phrase for centuries and maybe we shouldn't use this as an excuse for bad behavior or bullying" The number of men would represent how long (and yes, how many) times this has been used as an excuse. How it's been repeated over the centuries.

     

    Of course, all we are doing here is speculating. We don't know the actual reason for the removal of the rapper, and we don't know the actual reason for the line of men repeating a phrase. Artistic choice maybe?

    I watched that commercial a couple days ago and didn't find anything offensive about it. I think it's because I don't feel as though they are talking about me. I'm not saying you all think they are talking about you.

     

    I also don't really mind when companies take "a stand" about some issue. This isn't so much taking a stand in my eyes though. Obviously it is to sell more razors, but if they promote a positive message (leave others alone, asshole) then fuck it. As others have said, I don't see this as a gamble. I also have no skin in this game as my beard hangs to my chest and my balls stay fuzzy.

     

    The message they are going for is "don't harass others" which I am 100% behind. The only part of this entire video I take issue with is the dude that saw a woman walking up the street and he was going to go up to her. Finding someone sexually attractive and approaching them is not harassing them. Over staying your welcome is. They missed the mark on that one in my eyes.

     

     

    Also someone complained about them removing a black guy from the commercial, but there are several black guys still in the commercial, so I don't know why you are so butt hurt over it. If anything this commercial says "asians don't exist at all in this conversation" because I'm pretty sure there isn't a single one in the commercial.

     

     

     

    I also don't understand that going against instinct is what's causing us to have trannies nonsense. Who gives a fuck if there are trannies?

    Pooping in a community center. A project that should have been done weeks ago but the PM and engineer for this job are straight up fucking retarded. Too busy playing sack toss and soap box derby in the fucking office to focus on creating a single fucking print that resembles anything that even fucking exists on this fucking god damn site.

    Transferred from a failed triangle to an omoplata today and successfully tapped someone I haven’t tapped ever before. 

     

    My belt grew by two stripes today (what kind of loser is excited about stripes) so pretty excited about that.

    Maybe I’m just not as hard up for pussy as I used to be but I straight up would not fuck someone that gets naked at a festival. 

     

    Let alone a juggalette. Fucking menthols and periodontal disease emanating from their mouth, yeast infection from the faygo that got in there last month. Yeeech.

     

    that being said number 2 if I didn’t know about juggalos and naked festivaling

    • The role of genes in childhood obesity – there is some genetic research that has sought to link obesity to genetic makeup. You could do a research paper on this to try to find out to what extent this is true and if true, to what extent to influences the weight of new born babies, toddlers as well as adults
    • There is an increase in childhood obesity in America – you can take this as the main theme for your term paper. Write on why there is this increase and you can try to draw a contrast with one or two other countries that are either at per or have no childhood obesity crisis.
    • The effects of obesity – research has established a number of serious health implications of childhood obesity not only on the child but also later on in life. You can do a research paper that seeks to establish this link and investigate how adults are affected as a result of their childhood overweight issues.

     

    • Obesity prevention in children – prevention is always better than cure. You can do a study on the best mechanisms that can be employed to prevent childhood obesity
    • Healthy eating – this is another interesting topic worth pursuing. Obesity is largely as a result of poor eating habits so you can do a research paper on the healthy eating options for children. Could it be that the problem of obesity is because children have very few healthy eating options today?
    • Inactivity – inactivity, especially among Children is a serious challenge today. Children often prefer to play video games as opposed to going outside and playing with other kids. This somewhat leads to obesity and this would also be a great research topic on obesity
    • Societal stigma – obesity is not a disability but obese children go through the same stigmatization that disabled people do. How does society stigmatize obesity and how can this be checked?
    • Obesity and depression – some experts argue that there is a link between obesity and depression. This would also make for a good research topic as you seek to either validate or invalidate these assertions.

    I watched The Favorite last night and Holy Shit, I already thought of Yorgos Lanthimos as the most interesting director working today but this solidifies him as My Favorite (see what I did there)

     

    Olivia Colman's performance was award worthy, not to detract from the other 2 main characters who were also fantastic. All side characters were interesting. It was hilarious, and dark.

     

    This is way more accessible than his other films (Dogtooth, The Lobster, The Killing of a Sacred Deer) but still manages to keep his aesthetic. This man is a master.
