9. A ten year old kid told me this joke floating around his school...

Q: Why do girls wear makeup and perfume?

A: Because they're ugly and they stink.


Needless to say, he grew out of that phase...

19. What a filthy and offensive thing to write.

And completely misses the point.

4. K&R! I've seen this before, brilliant idea...

Will always get a K&R from me!

[mucifer]

5. That's a great video. I hope these aren't cherry picked and most of the answers

came out that way convincing people to think about things in a more complex manner.

K and R

6. I just LOVE this - love, love, LOVE it.

Getting people to fucking THINK, but not in a condescending way - rather, using a method that's kind of Socratic, and logical.

Big K&R. And thanks for posting this footage.

10. This question kicks people off the fence they didn't even know they were sitting on.

I posted this same vid a while back. Be prepared for reactions that you wouldn't expect.

15. When I was 5

And saw Ginger on, "Gilligan's Island," for the first time.

At least that's when I first exhibited straightness since I didn't really choose.

23. Funny thing, when I was about 5

I too saw an episode of Gilligan's Island, but it was not Ginger that caught my attention, rather it was a very young Kurt Russell.

16. That question often flies over the heads of those to whom it is asked.

It isn't always the "evil conservatives" that seem to pop off with some really stupid remarks either. We have come so far, but still have miles to go!

18. I was lured into the straight lifestyle by liberal Hollywood propaganda.

I've never shared this in public before, but I first started experimenting with heterosexuality in the 6th grade. I mean, I always had these feelings, this inexplicable attraction to people of the opposite sex. But I'd never actually acted on those feelings before I was 12. Then, little by little, in clandestine meetings or in back yards during friends' parties, I would occasionally find a willing partner and we would, you know, explore what it was like to act out on these impulses. But did I choose this lifestyle? Or was I programmed into it by an unrelenting barrage of media hyperganda, seducing me into becoming a straight? I'll never know. I only know I'm now trapped in this heterosexual mindset. I don't think there's any hope of any church official deprogramming me out of feeling this way.

20. Brilliant answer! :rofl:

But this one question is the Ammo i need to shut up the haters I work with.

22. I carefully considered my options, then wrote a detailed position paper on why I would henceforth

like girls.

I was about 3.
