Speaking of idiosyncratic expressions on FtB, I've never seen someone splutter (sic ?) in the written form:

Will Oggie ever stop delivering?

You are allowed latitude when you hold the moral high ground. Or something. But seriously is there anybody on the SJW team, and especially Skepchick who doesn't identify and more strikingly, proudly flaunt, their emotional disabilities and / or past history of assault? As some background, I have lo...

Currently $609 per video. Assuming no time off, & patrons haven't set monthly limits that are under 9x their per-video pledge, at 2 videos/week that's $63.336/year. (My guess is that Ms. Watson has done that math, too.) That's in the 25% tax bracket for single filer in US, if it's income. Is she pa...

Well this is hardly definitive:

The stupid definitely hurts.

But it's the:

That sent me for a bucket. What is it with FtB posters and their literary shakes?

BF still on the scene. Only 2 new patreons pulled in from 23 and Me video vs 67 for the fembot one. I'd be interested to see how she maintains the momentum - now that she's described male atheists as fearing being de-balled into a mangina and male skeptics (disinterested in her spiel) as being worse...

RW's new flood of patreon earnings will fund her move to San Francisco where she will host skeptic in the pub events because she "loves the attention".

Correction "female". I guarantee I got it right on the night!

Brive1987 - LOL, did you call the guy out in the session at work for offending women by using "female"? No, I can't ignore any opportunity to revisit. I'm going to be seriously amused by this for days. My exact comment: "I am for instance personally offended by your use of 'woman' as a noun" was me...

Rebecca's 21 and Me video is terrible and I'm only a couple of mins into a 14min production. Basically she and Steve Novella had a dust up on SGU a while back where he set her straight on why a simple mail-in genetics test shouldn't be used as a health diagnostic. She bawled and cried and shuffled o...

Ok, you CUNTS (except Mykeru who is a CNUT): http://www.quickanddirtytips.com/education/grammar/woman-versus-female-0 Since she uses feminism as a 'get out of jail free' card to use 'girl', I'm gonna continue to follow in the path of Jane Austin and use 'female' as a noun. When I think about it, wh...

Rebecca has posted her first of two promised public vids this week. A Follow up on 23 and me.

I suspect it will be more about the "me" bit than anything else.

On this thread alone.

Search for "male" and get 10 pages of results. Search for "female" and get 9 pages of results.

After extensive analysis I am relieved to report that Clarence's was the only example where the terms were used as a noun. I say "kill the pig".

Personally I can well understand someone using 'male' and 'female' when they are expressing some sort of pseudo technical / intellectual idea in a discussion. It has that ring to it and applying charity I'd probably assume no underlying insanity. On the other hand used instinctively in casual conver...

I'm glad that here in Australia, her "articles" remain inaccessible.

I know that's not what you meant - but it amused me slightly writing it. :P

Dick, you sound deflated after your initial 'best tidings for a new start' euphoria.

Implict :D made explicit.

She just hit $600. Even a drunk can stumble after that free drink.

Fuck, fuck, fuck. It was 2x a week.

God forbid, but I believe she said that now she's committed to 2x videos a month, one would be dedicated to feminist topics.

Without going back to check, I would still wager post tax dollars that that memory is not implanted.

Oh, I'm glad I caught you before you truly got the shakes.
