    Has friends besides tanks now

    I didn't know Pizza Hut is apparently considered Not Very Good (and I don't share that opinion since they make Stuffed Crust pizza and the pizza tastes pretty good, if greasy, without sauce). Out of what's nearby, the one I hate is Domino's. Papa John's is better than both, though, and the one time I had Sbarro I remembered it being offensively bad.

  • You can change. You can.

    Pizza Hut is OK pizza. Not bad, but uh not that recommended.


    Really, if you want quality pizza, you want to stay away from chains.

    I guess that's true. But the non-chain place I usually go to (which is a four-minute walk from my house) costs $14.43 for a medium pizza.


    And no, I never noticed how fucked up that was until I started going to more chains and getting my own pizza.

    Pizza Hut's basically pretty lame.


    So're all the major chains, Pizza Hut's no exception.


    They're okay if you just want something quick and easy delivered and you're in the mood for greasy food, though.

    Yeah, non-chain pizza tends to be expensiver. 

  • I'm a damn twisted person

    The best delivery pizza around me is a place called Ians. On one hand, they make really good pizza and have a ton of toppings and combinations. On the downside, Ians is staffed by a bunch of stoners and my orders there have always gotten wrong to some small extent, but the finished product is still pretty good. 


    Like the fettachini chicken pizza where they accidentally replaced the noodles with french fries.

    IJBM: I think the caffeine I've been having recently is only making me more tired and less functional. I was hoping to not be brain-dead while working on inane movie trivia questions and writing a short story draft, and to not need a nap before meeting people in four hours/while laundry is going.

    So they really do think it's about procreation.


    If one of them says this, please ask them whether infertile people should be allowed to wed.


     


    Also feel free to let them know that one of your friends opposed same-sex marriage until he realized that the only reason he could come up with for doing so was that it "looks wrong".


    That friend being yours truly.

    Well, Bi = Poly is hardly a rare interpretation. Not that it makes it any less stupid.


    On the other hand, " In fact, one could argue that bisexuals are the most important sexual minority because they are the most neglected, even more than T" is just hilariously wrong on so many levels.

    There's been some confusion over rooming here at Shiz sexual preferences.


    Heterosexuality means "open to sexual relations with only the opposite sex".  Homosexuality means "open to sexual relations with only the same sex".  Bisexuality means "open to sexual relations with either sex".


    Heterosexuality does NOT mean "desiring sexual relations with all members of the opposite sex".  Homosexuality does NOT mean "desiring sexual relations with all members of the same sex".  Bisexuality does NOT mean "desiring sexual relations with everyone".


    Not to mention that there's been some confusion over the distinction between romantic relations and sexual relations.

    Oh, I forgot to mention, bisexuality means open to sexual relations with either sex.  It does NOT mean desiring of sexual relations with both sexes at the same time.

    Now now, that's not fair on the bi people who are polygamous.


  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!

    It doesn't mean not desiring that either.

  • Creature - Florida Dragon Turtle Human

    Fair enough.  But that doesn't mean they should be painted with a broad brush saying that they all do, all the time.

    I say.


    You know what's really frustrating about this "And if we allow gays to marry what's next? Polygamy?" 'argument? That the rational counter-argument would in fact be "So what? What's so bad about that?"... but you can't say that, because people would be too shocked by the concept so you saying that would only end up hurting the cause of homosexual equality!

    Welp, I finished a paragraph in a short story I'm writing and noticed the word count at 666. A good sign, all things considered.

    ^^^^ I've always hated the arguments that polygamy is somehow oppressive to women when, in fact, monogamy historically represented the culmination of the patriarchal subjugation of women to men. There is no good reason against it, really. Ideally, marriage should gradually be dying off.


    ^ Hm. What's it about?

    Lolwut?


    In any case, polygamy just means multiple marriages. Historically, this has nearly always meant polygyny, yes, but it doesn't necessarily have to be. And anyway, the historical forms of polygamy would be entirely different to polygamy nowadays, where it would all (number of people, gender of people, who) just depend on the consent of the participating people.


    ^^Depends. What kinda RP? What do you have in mind?

    Lemme begin.


    Primitive societies were mostly matriarchal, and had matrilinear lineage for the simple reason that those societies were quite sexually promiscous, without a lot of sexual taboos, so it was difficult to keep track of the father. With the discovery of agriculture, men became the dominant gender due to agriculture being more physically demanding than hunting-gathering, so they were the ones who did most of the work and accumulated the most of the fruits of labor, since agriculture also led to the formation of private property, due to the question of how to distribute the reserves. With that came the subjugation of women under the male-led private household, and also patrilinear lineage. Polygamy (polygyny, to be more specific) was only a transitional phase towards full monogamy, which is a more stable form of marriage, and at the same time a more stable way to accumulate capital, since marriage and family as we know them are nothing but a medium for the accumulation of private property under one household.

  • I don't even call it violence when it's in self defence; I call it intelligence.

    Yes. That does sound just like Marxism: Get the historical facts as such right and then draw the craziest possible conclusions from it in order to establish a historical narrative over the span of millennia, something no sane historian would do :P
