Your "belief" is not more important than my reality.

[StrangeLife]

Hey StrangeLife, they vote you prom queen yet?

Well, it's a tough crowd but I'm optimistic. Remember : "Glass half full"

That could be due to an over-production of prostaglandin of course...

 

[John Doe]

I know what you implied, but like I said - I'm a "glass is half full" kinda guy

Which is what?

 

[StrangeLife]

Which is what?

Your perception of me is, that I'm ignorant, my points are invalid and I am just plain wrong. Though unfortunately I am obviously not entirely oblivious to the main points of contention, so you need a pre-cooked ad hominem argument for dismissing my concerns in the areas where I do hit too close to the mark.

This is where the clock-argument is frequently used - not unlike "even a blind squirrel will find a nut once in a while" and "if enough monkeys pound away on a keyboard, one of them will eventually write Hamlet."

So there. My bill is in the mail...

Why do you say that?

It wasn't an argument. It was a question.

 

[StrangeLife]

Why do you say that?

Because you asked.

 

[John Doe]

Because you asked.

If I'm only asking then what makes you think what my perception is?

Scroll back about a page and re-read the progression of the arguments. What can I say? I'm a perceptive guy...

So then you assume I think you're stupid because others do?

 

[girlsmiley]

I thought that was just me. I thought I picked up the food thing from being raised with dogs. "Fuck with my food and you're fucking with me. Don't make me bite your face off!"

And I'm a very private person, so I like a lot of Me time...holy shit. I'm hardwired!

That's nice. I'm painting my toenails. Red delicious.

See how this works? How awesome am I?

Ok, I could be over perceptive of course....

Theres a few things that bother me about this issue besides the government forcing people to buy health insurance or providing it.

Womens reproductive rights, man I am so sick of hearing about this. Let's be honest without getting into the whys of how someone got pregnant.

Aww...Because it's all about you, isn't it?

I don't think any woman gets pregnant on purpose just to get an abortion. However when you abort a fetus your killing a human being that is not yet fully developed. That's the long and short of it. You can hem and haw about it being just cell's. They are human cells.

They are cell's what? Never mind, that question will fly right over your head. My toenails are made up of human cells too. What is your point? And I have to ask, you seem to be adamantly pro-life. What are your thoughts on the death penalty?

I think it's wrong when pro life people throw the word murder around. It's also wrong when pro abortion people screech about their reproductive rights are being taken away. Unless roe v Wade is repealed your right to abortion is intact.

If a woman is not close enough to a clinic to have one, because they've been shut down, her right to one is hardly intact. If she can't get to one, she can't fucking have one, can she?

If a woman wants an abortion nobody is stopping her.

Except for the religious legalists regulating clinics out of business. You know what almost makes me laugh? The conservatives in this country screaming about over regulation, then they turn around and do it when it suits them.

Scribes. Pharisees. Hypocrites.

Planned parenthood which was founded to legally control the black population of America by Margret Sanger is more than willing to assist any woman blk wht,yellow whatever color.

That's a lie spread by hateful pseudo Christians. It fucking kills me how someone can claim to follow Jesus Christ, whose sole commands where to love God and one another, then turn around and lie through their teeth when it suits them. I swear there is something in the Bible somewhere about not bearing false witness, or something like that.

Cuddle me, John Snow. I'm sleepy.

Zzzz.

Am I boring you?

 

[girlsmiley]

Am I boring you?

No, I'm just very tired.

Work and stuff. I saw my chiropractor at 5. Then we went out for dinner. I did some laundry and dishes. Homework. Bath.

I'm nodding off.

Night, John Snow.

 

[BotanyBoy]

So once again - life ain't fair. Boo hoo. Deal with it and pay for your own hobbies.

What if it's not a hobby but a potentially life threatening condition?

Oh wait I bet you ignore this one too because it doesn't fit your lie of "bc is for slutting it up!!" born of ignorance and zealotry. You do the right wing proud.

 

[StrangeLife]

What if it's not a hobby but a potentially life threatening condition?

You mean, like when you're really horny?

How about stocking up on BC in advance so you have some ready before you begin to fade....

Should I be able to not pay for your broken bones if you are involved with sports extreme or otherwise?

What kind of sex life are you guys having? Broken bones? I'd say it's extreme...

Yup. after all, broken bones are not a disease....

Your argument about sex is that you don't want to pay for other people's sex and they should protect themselves or control their urges. I don't want to pay for your hockey, football, boxing, track, basketball, wrestling, skateboarding, bike riding or any other physical activity where you could simply not do it and eliminate the risk. So should I be able to do that? While we're at it I don't want to pay for your injuries moving I've seen too many people get hurt while moving and we have professionals to do that sort of thing. Too cheap to pay a professional moving crew? Hardly my problem.

You are mixing a medical emergency with a birth control issue Sean. Unless your genital are bleeding that's hardly related.

And I'm still not paying for you to have sex.

So we're winding back to "THOSE people can just go to the emergency room" again? Shades of Julybaby04!

 

[Wings]

In shades of JBJ'ness-I used to take bc to control my bleeding, if I hadn't then I probably would have died. I didn't need it to keep from getting pregnant, my husband was snipped. I'm not sure why that would constitute emergency medicine, they knew they had to control it and that was the best solution.

So pretty much I am the antithesis of SL's argument.

True. It all goes back to the issue of everyone pays for more for someone else's health issues. We all pay for everyone...we all do. You can't pick and choose what you are willing to pay for.

If someone doesn't want to pay for my daughters BC(which isn't for pregnancy prevention), then I don't want to pay for anyone's cholesterol medicine. That person should have better personal responsibility.
I cant eat at all the fried foods and eat what I like, why should I pay for someone else to be able to do it?

We cannot pick and choose. We all pay for someone else's health issues.
