Bleeding from the Bunghole

[justinvacula]

So...yeah. False alarm. It's just Cards Against Humanity again. Their quoting of this game seems to catch a lot of you off guard. :think:

Yup. Cards Against Humanity. The excuse to say whatever is on their minds, and pretend it is OK.

Good FSM! Could you even imagine playing CAH with the SJW's? I imagine call outs, triggers, and rage tears within 5 minutes.

If I recall correctly, Cards Against Humanity was both played and tweeted about at both Women in Secularism 2 and Skeptech. Skeptech, too, had that strange policy barring sexual imagery while featuring a BDSM club on its website as places to attend.

[HelpingHand]

With Cards Against Humanity being the topic du jour... I present another source of terribly offensive humor.

saying "I have a boyfriend" did not work....

In classic Skepchick kafkatrap fashion, the article wants it both ways.
If the guy doesn't accept "I have a boyfriend" as equal to "no", then he's sexist.
If the guy does accept "I have a boyfriend" as equal "no", then he's sexist:

Well, straight guys are extremely sexist. We almost never hit on dudes.

That's EXACTLY the way MrsVh describes it!

It's like the old,"do you think I'm too ugly to rape?", question.

There's no correct answer.

Yes, you're too ugly to rape = misogynist !

No, you're not too ugly to rape = rapist!

I hate when that happens.


Don't show the Skepchicks this one (slightly NSFW language):

The alternative? Lying in a way that those types of men understand. Men with such sexist views will be more likely to leave a woman alone, or at least not harm her, if she tells him that she’s “taken” by another man.

[youtube]VvYIpa1Ulvw[/youtube]

Only knowing a few 'sexist men' (as they seem to define it for this purpose) in my life, I'd say the opposite is true. A 'sexist man' (in my limited experience of knowing them) wants to STEAL the woman away, fuck her and (hopefully) wreck the beta-male's relationship or at least make him a cuckhold. It's not just about fucking, it's about fucking and winning.

OTOH, nice guys can be instantly shut-down by "I have a boyfriend" as they tend to respect the relationship the woman is in and do not wish to interfere.

But, hey, if you completely hate men, what does it matter... Write whatever you want, however you want because men must be punished and attacked for being men. Even if the vast majority of them don't do the things you say they do.

Drescher needs to remember that when the fembots say that she is being aggressive towards women, what they really mean is that she is being mean to them. Because they represent all women, naturally. Right? Right....?

Or, they're just twisting everything Drescher says so they can attack Drescher with it. You know, the usual.

[If you get Mrs. VAXherd riled about The Injustices She Experiences As A Woman, one of her big gotos is that back when she had to wait at bus stops at night, saying "I have a boyfriend" did not work.

I'd say it wouldn't. I mean we all know that some folks don't give a monkeys about whether or not there is a significant other or spouse, it's not a relevant factor.

So now the IT guy is going to instruct a construction worker on the nature of wood? As someone who has broken things as a career, not merely as a demo, I'm saying it is that easy. What you're seeing in that video is a carnie trick. Nothing more. End of. Period. Within four weeks, I'm ass deep in canning and winterizing right now, I will produce a video replicating that trick.

http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-OD-YODMj0jc/U ... y+kong.gif

If he does it with zero practice and prep, and videos the first try only, no two out of three shit, and it is as perfectly smooth as the russian dude, that will be mildly impressive?

I'm unsure what he thinks i'm saying. It MAY be a carnie trick, it MAY not be. We have no proof either way, just a lot of kremlinology on the video. (funny how skeptics are so sure of something sans real proof when it suits them. Sweet, sweet confirmation bias.)

However, even if it is a carnie trick, my point's been, they're still not dead easy to do sans practice. I say this has someone who has done the MA versions of the carnie trick. Really, breaking bricks, boards and bottles is not some mystical thing. it's a matter of knowledge, some skill, and practice.

Ever notice the spacers between the bricks? Yeah. Carnie trick. Show someone driving their elbow through 15 bricks sans spacers and THAT would be amazing.

But by all means, I hope he makes the video. It'll be fun to watch.

[Gumby]

So, over at WEIT, Professor Ceiling cat has a post up about a New York Times interview with Richard Dawkins, where he discusses some of his favorite books and ones that he would recommend to people.

From the comments:

:whistle:

[welch]

There's a lot of variance here. Given the entire vid, I doubt he's holding a plate.

The wood could be soft, and I don't think that takes anything away from anything. The fact that martial arts demos involve dry-ass pine boards, not green oak don't take anything away from them. As someone who's broken such things, along with bottles with my hands, even a demo that looks "easy", isn't. If he gets the nail tilted, it won't work real well, and even "soft" wood isn't that soft.

The real trick here is the velocity. It's like cutting a small branch with a ruler. If it's moving fast enough, it's definitely doable.

I think arguing about the wood type misses the point. Even doing it through half-inch balsa isn't as easy as he makes it look.

OMG, true that. The last karate tournament I fought in there was a guy (some semi-obscure Japanese style) who gave a demonstration on some 'dynamic tension' thing where his students would break boards (2x4's) across his ribs.

So it ended badly. He didn't get nice, kiln-dried white-wood but picked up some studs that were still half-green and, therefore, very springy. They broke his ribs. And not on the first hit. They hit him five or six times before they gave up as being unable to break the boards.

Oh fuck me, OW. What a stupid tit though. Jesus, you don't just buy random 2x4s like that. Well, I mean, if you want to go to the hospital, sure.

It was one of the worst terrors ever and happily for me, an experience I'll never have again.

I hope your kid's doing alright.

He's ok now :) I had 3 severe asthma attacks over the past year so I know how he feels. It's a horrible and terrifying feeling when you can't breathe properly.

[welch]

The board is probably a low density softwood, like poplar or similar.

FFS, Poplar is a HARDWOOD, not a softwood.

Jesusfuckingchrist why are so many slymepitters so scientifically illiterate??

You made another dumbfuck mistake that could've been avoided by looking at wikipedia.

Poplar wood comes from the American tulip tree.

Balsa is a hardwood too, what's your point?

You remind me of that pedantic person I heard the other day, in response to someone saying they had a daddy long legs in their bathroom, and they hated spiders, informing them that daddy long legs aren't spiders. Oh wait, that was me.

Drescher, after being an 'ally' got on Myers' shit-list earlier this year. She responds, albeit indirectly, here: http://tinyurl.com/18r

Several people have asked me if I plan to respond to PZ Myers, considering the “beating” he gave me and others in a post last week.

No, I don’t. I may if I see a good reason, but the truth is that responding to him is a bit like debating a creationist. Sometimes one should, but this is not one of those times. In this case, PZ has so grossly misrepresented my writings and statements that it is very clear that no productive discussion can occur with him on the matter. This is not the first time he has done so and not the first time that I have essentially ignored it. The post is almost entirely built on mischaracterizations, straw men, and falsehoods. If anyone else wants to discuss it, I will be happy to do so after you have read what I actually wrote, context and all.

I wish she would write more. One post of hers a month would do more for the atheist/skeptic community that pretty much all of the 'positives' (even without weighing in the negatives) that come out of FTB and Skepchicks.

From Shakesville last month:

I fear being denied medical care, being misdiagnosed, being refused by emergency crews, being told I must lose weight as a condition of care, because I am fat. I fear dying because of fat hatred.

This fear is part of the backdrop of my womanhood.

We had several anesthesiologists presenting information on the anatomy of the airway and demonstrating intubation for the students in lab earlier this month. It was mentioned by the senior physician amongst them that it's not uncommon to have a patient with a BMI of 70-80 (!) these days, and that alternative instruments have to be used for intubation in morbidly obese individuals. She was not showing fat hatred or advocating denial of care to fat people: it's a simple fact of anatomy - with that much fat over the shoulders, the neck can't be extended, and standard instruments can't be used to visualize the structures. There's more fat everywhere in the neck and face that restricts movement and obscures anatomy. The fact that instruments and procedures have been modified or developed to deal with obese patients in particular runs counter to the Shakesville "fear" of being denied medical care because of TEH FATNESS.

I fear dying because of fat hatred being morbidly obese is associated with serious health risks and premature death.

Yeah, I worry about the consequences of being overweight too. I handle this by attempting to actually DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.

Much happier. Though, his peak flow meter is still showing "red" levels. But this was expected due to him still having a lot of phlegm in his lungs (from a cold). I didn't know until this past year how terrifying not being able to breathe properly can be. He's a stronger person than I for what he goes through.

I am disgusted with the fat shaming in these posts. How dare you tell overweight people to eat less and exercise more? Would you be a rape apologist by telling women that they might want to keep an eye on their own drink? Would you be a misogynist by suggesting vendors should pay attention to a conference's policies?

Silverman to the people who labeled him a sexual predator, accused Shermer of serial rape and branded Krauss, Bill Nye and Dawkins sexual deviants: Try to work with those who disagree with you. Okay? Are you mad at me? I'm sorry...I'm sorry.

All of the ideas he's putting out in his speech (thanks, Vacula) are simply a sideshow until we get the movement back from the insane lunatics. We need to stop pretending that the FTBullies are interested in compromise. Compromise, in fact, is what gets someone booted from FTB/A+/Scamchicks.

tell a man "I'm not interested" to deflect unwanted romantic interest, but instead,
it's absolutely necessary for women to hide behind the protection of a man

"Grandad? What was the Slymepit like in those days?"

Ach! Twas an intense experience. We were young, dashing, bold, fearless and sometimes we had the most intense and stimulating debates about bread, water, pocket knives, wood and nails.

I remember the great debate on what was the best hammer to use ... there was the ballsack group and the penis group and that dispute is still simmering in the background to this day!

This was before things got really serious you unnerstand? Hein? This was at the time der Surlyfuhrer was still a minion to Twatson and they were still trying to rehabilitate Laden as a rhetorical assassin, so he was studying how to produce a deliberate tour de farce under Carrier who had yet to break with PeeZuss Christ over the dispute with Two Cows Brayton on his brane dumps.

Nor have I claimed I have that knowledge. I think, based on the video, that the speed/velocity the nail hits the board with is very important, but angle and direction would also seem to have an effect on things. Given that I've not tried this specific trick, I freely admit that I do not in fact have all the details of how this trick works. I can make some reasonable guesses on it, but that's all they would be.

However, given that you yourself don't appear to know the exact setup and method the dude in the video uses, you cannot reliably replicate his trick either. You can create the same end effect, but you have no way to prove you did it exactly the same way, based on just that video. So even if you get the same end result, you can't prove what you want us to think you'll prove.

In any event beavis, you just made the point i've been making, which is that even a simply carnie trick requires some skill and practice to pull off successfully.

Quick response to Dave's talk:

He's all about harsh criticism of religion and says it's others' problem if they are offended, but if you're critical of feminism/feminist ideas everything changes for whatever reason.

He says, "Avoid attacking intra-movement whenever possible," but enables people who frequently do that by inviting them to speak at AA conferences or otherwise approving/condoning/tolerating their inclusion at AA events.

Satirize Mohammad all day by drawing him even though you know people will claim offense, but don't dare photoshop FTBloggers' signs with a harmless "We love Justin" joke. The horror!

Sheesh, Tony that takes me back. I used to love Alexander and the boys. Shark's teeth eat Richard Widmark and Twenty five dollars for a massage and all that malarkey.

I used to go around singing TBTM and somebody had to tell me it was to do with the Nazis, which I remember vociferously denying at one stage.

I don't know whether this song is a nazi-inspired one, or an older one just one taken over and appropriated by the boys from Nuremburg. It's true that the lyrics could refer to world domination, but you could also read is as a sort of "We shall overcome" if it were in a different context.

As we're all post-modernists now I'm going to go with the explanation that it's an innocent German folk-song about oppressed workers and has nothing to do with the Bruno Ganz lookalike.
