Good article, I can see why you like it so much.
― Baruch Olbermann (Leee), Thursday, 8 January 2015 21:36 (nine years ago) link
it's p decent, takes a markedly more nuanced look at the whole mess than its subject probably deserves

its decent and nuanced to poop on

you use that term a lot but i dont think you know what it means

wasn't trying to zing or anything just meant it seemed like a strong crit, article didn't seem that bad if nothing great either

Using the term 'hot take' on ILX is like trying to claim you know the color of the boathouse at Hereford
― 龜, Thursday, 8 January 2015 21:52 (nine years ago) link
its red (hot color)
― lag∞n, Thursday, 8 January 2015 21:52 (nine years ago) link
can't rightly say I know the color of any boathouses anywhere

He was a narcissist, but a strangely impersonal narcissist, like a general whose army happens to be deployed inside himself.
Why do writers write sentences like this
― Clay, Thursday, 8 January 2015 22:53 (nine years ago) link
because someone let them
― lag∞n, Thursday, 8 January 2015 22:53 (nine years ago) link
because they are deployed inside themselves
― lag∞n, Thursday, 8 January 2015 22:54 (nine years ago) link
There were five or six sentences that I c/p'd on my phone to highlight as just atrociously underthought "smart things to say" garbage thoughts in that article before I hit that one, but that metaphor took the cake.

well I guess it is a simile excuse me
how does kobe make me feel asks the smart man

ah that runofplay guy who wrote the kobe bit is the worst person on earth. i only know him for doing the same terrible shit for soccerball, except no one here criticises him for it, which makes me want to switch sports

i don't really see how this is offensive or even a joke?
― micah, Thursday, 15 January 2015 01:29 (nine years ago) link
it's just a corny cliché joke made by terrible men who don't know anything about women's health issues or, like, why people become doctors
― Clay, Thursday, 15 January 2015 01:34 (nine years ago) link
yup, posted here cos its funny that its not funny. dad joke territory
― Spottie, Thursday, 15 January 2015 01:38 (nine years ago) link
yeah i agree its def not funny. but using it to show like the line between work and the fun you have at home doesnt make light of womens health or w/e
― micah, Thursday, 15 January 2015 01:52 (nine years ago) link
well the joke is if you were a gynecologist you'd be happy at work all the time b/c haha looking at women's genitals all day high-five man that's the life, rather than being a serious occupation taken up by extremely well-trained people who do life-saving work for women and families every single day.
― Clay, Thursday, 15 January 2015 01:58 (nine years ago) link
there i explained a punchline on the internet are you proud now dad
― Clay, Thursday, 15 January 2015 01:59 (nine years ago) link
It is not funny any way you slice it, at face value, or that someone has an outlook that would offer it as a joke.
― Baruch Olbermann (Leee), Thursday, 15 January 2015 02:01 (nine years ago) link
it is sad that apparently there are adult men who consider the word gynecologist in the same light as a ten year old considers the word fart

― Spottie, Thursday, 15 January 2015 19:45 (nine years ago) link
No, the "joke" is that just because someone's "serious occupation" involves women's genitalia, they do not carry over that clinical, detached attitude towards women's genitalia outside of work. Y'all are reading it backwards.

like he's not saying "like a gynecologist, I'm happy at work all the time because basketball is awesome", but "like a gynecologist, I can enjoy elements of my occupation when I encounter them outside of a work setting"
