The "heightism" assholes are getting more and more annoying.

The obsession on "pussy" is stupid, and I'm not sure it's not a troll. That being said...

One of the things I think is worth criticising in the Social Justice movement is that they focus a lot more on privilege that works in discrete categories (man vs woman, white vs non-white, straight vs queer, cis vs trans) than privilege that works on continuous traits (wealth, attractiveness, and yes, height). The obvious reason is that discrete categories are simpler and easier to build a narrative around, but I'm not sure that's all that's going on. For one, weight is the obvious exception to the rule, and I could speculate about that but I don't have a good model that accounts for it.

Still, it's as far as I know true that there are social advantages to being tall (for example). I don't think that means we need to start a social activist cause around it, mind you.

If you're short you have the social advantage of being able to dress as an Oompa Loompa for Halloween.
History is full of maniacs, my friend, men and women of intelect, highly perceptive individuals, who's brilliant minds know neither restraint nor taboo. Such notions are the devils we must slay for the edification of pony-kind. Even if said edification means violating the rules of decency, society, and rightousness itself.

That chart is measured using Imperial units, and was thus likely created by savages, which means it can be easily ignored.

My college's wifi is being...weird.  I can access everything except Google.  Unless Google is down, which seems EXCEEDINGLY unlikely.

[ETA2]

NOW it works.  The fuck?  I think this thing's DNS temporarily lost its mind.

Lost causers and confederate apologists.

Imagine how much people would freak if you said "Germany just wanted independence and was actually planning or freeing the Jews after the war."

I know a website for that (Not really but I couldn't resist the obvious joke.)

So my guidance counselor fucked up with my enrollment into Community College today. My major was supposed to be general biology...somehow that translated into veterinary studies.

Works being a dick and not giving me any hours. I'm seriously tempted to just quit and take care of my child full time (something my wife agrees might be for the best for now).

On a much lighter note, fuck Ebrietas in her blue waffle resembling face.

I can't stay angry at Ebrietas when she happily lends me a helping tentacle now and then.

but all the "Feminism SUX!" "SJW RUINED THIS!" "[unoriginal, unfunny joke relating to Tumblr]" comments that show up on /co/ every thread. I know that kind of thing is 4chints bread and butter but it shows up a ton.

I admit I dislike the reactionary views of people with four chins too.

Well, I just had a debate with a complete moron. First she spoke against the flu shot and HPV vaccine, and I stated why they were beneficial. Then she mentioned how her mom repeatedly got the flu from the shot (not possible) so I countered with citations stating as such. She also went on about homeopathy being far better, and I countered with citations showing it to be a placebo equivalent. She eventually resorted to "We'll just have to agree to disagree."

You can't disagree with a goddamn fact, you fuckface.
Guys, this is getting creepy. Can we talk about cannibalism instead?

The phrase "people of color".  Yeah, let's lump all non-whites in with each other, that's not racist at all!
