How about stealing your food and making your life a living hell, in a sexual way? <.< >.>


Interesting proposition. We shall see how this pans out. You're hired.

Now I shall implement Plan X-387!

You are somewhat confused in your message here. If you are opposed to ageism, in all senses then you certainly should not make reference to your fathers age at all. Or does his age in some way, in your mind, separate him from other bread winning men of different ages.

Generally this is a problem that occurs with those that oppose any sort of -ism. they end up paying too much attention to the issue that they are claiming to be irrelevant. (Reminds me of one of my first 'discussions' with Sinahue)

My reason for mentioning his age is to clarify the ageism and why it is there.

Besides, being tolerant is not about hiding facts that people might use to discriminate you with. It's about accepting those as what they are. You wouldn't ask a homosexual man to hide his homosexuality, after all.

He mentioned his father's situation as an example of ageism. I don't quite see how that makes him confused in his message.

He mentioned his father's situation as an example of ageism. I don't quite see how that makes him confused in his message.

How is it an example of ageism? His father is 65 years old - a fact, his father supports the family - fact. How is one of these facts relevant to the other, unless there is some unstated connection along the lines of his father is too old to support the family. As he is complaining about ageism, what was he trying to show with this information?

Ignoring a factor, particularly one that you consider personally to be irrelevant, is one approach to prejudices that, in the long term, is much more successful than complaining about the prejudice. Just look at the history of unfounded prejudices and you will see while people fight against them they continue, but whenever society places its attention elsewhere, many (but not all to be fair) of these prejudices simply disappear.

The major exceptions to this are racism, sexism, and religious intolerance.
Ageism exists, but it is not the problem that these other prejudices are, nor does it have a significant history. (Infirmity until recently was definitely correlated with age, and as such constituted a genuine reason to discriminate in many areas. - you may disagree with this assertion, but you will have to show in what way infirmity is not a motive to select others prior to the infirm)

The fact that he ISN'T unable to do the job he's supposed to do.

Let me restate this. He is facing ageism IN HIS LINE OF WORK. I mentioned the other parts to show WHY THIS IS BAD FOR MY FAMILY. He's perfectly capable of doing the work, but because of his age, he is considered less valuable by those who could employ him.

No they don't. They're simply shoved under the rug.

I'm well aware of the historical reason for age discrimination. But since it no longer applies, ageism is a serious problem, and it needs to stop. It makes me incredibly angry that the attitudes no longer needed still continue to exist, and I will fight against it.

Also, NM, since when does Ann Coulter count as "easy on the eyes"?

AC is no beauty queen, but IMO makes up for it intellectually. And she's very easy on the eyes in comparison to, say, Rosie O'Fat or other equally vociferous lefties.

But if you look carefully, you'll note that I used the term in question only in connection with my third choice.

This could easily be hijacked into a discussion of hot women on the right ;)

You haven't reached that status yet, so I'll just say that imputations of "fascism" are generally grounded in ignorance of the actual meaning of the word.Ann Coulter is quite fascist, which, judging from your post history, I think is why you like her. She continuously asks for harsh punishments for those that disagree with her and yearns for a society aligned by one right-wing ideology. Fascism comes from "fascere" (sp?) meaning "to gather in a bundle" or along those lines. The whole idea behind fascism is a "Gleichschaltung" of society, starting with opinions. Ann Coulter is a "You're free to voice your opinion, so long as its the same as mine" kind of girl, and that's what makes her a fascist.

And I was a Girl Scout leader (one summer only, and only to get a job as Program Director at a GS camp while I was in college) and can build a campfire using only one match (and a LOT of balled up paper... the rules didn't say I couldn't!), identify three trees ("That one is a pine tree, the one over there is a pine... and, let's see... this one here, it is a pine.") and paddle a canoe around a lake (the trick is to pick a very small lake) these being the three easiest badges I could find in my quest to become licensed to take girls camping in Ulster County. In order to be a leader, you had to have three badges, and I figured I could complete these three in the hour and a half I had left before the campers started arriving and my paperwork needed to be finished.

My dad is sixty-five,
and this part of his sentence:

but you just stopped reading after that and missed the following part completely, even though it was what was already pointed out to by several people in response to your previous post:

actually seeds would be easy to find. fruits will have seeds within them, also nuts and berries.

tubers and other root veggies can be transplanted and in some cases, grafting works.

the hard part will be finding the right soil and surviving untill your crops come in.

...

THAT MEANS NO SEX, PEOPLE. Sorry. :(

Well, the island of Manhattan is 18 miles long and 2 miles wide and has a population of something like 67,000 residents per square mile. I think that you could plunk all of us on a 5 mile long island and we would be just fine.

Plus, coconuts are high in oil, so we could easily use them to treat any chafing problems.

I am a great cook, I tell good jokes,I know how to cure animal hide, I can sew, I can design and build a house, I know the principles of electricity (in case a generator washed up on the island) I am really good at entertaining myself so I wouldn't bug you all the time, I am very warm and cuddly for cold nights (and I have all the right snuggly bits), I can tell which way is north (go east and hang a left), I can recite Dr. Seuss books from memory, and I know how to deal with snakes.

I am a pilot so I may have a radio on me and knowledge of the local ATC freq that'll help us get off the island. I may bring my handgun along, with ammo, so at least we can hunt for food. I know which plants are poisonous and which aren't. Also, I'm a great listener, I just like to be alone a lot since, well that's how I am. I like to cuddle and please the person during sex, so you know I'll try my best to make you reach orgasm. Also, I just broke up with my girlfriend, so come play! :D

Ann Coulter is quite fascist, which, judging from your post history, I think is why you like her. She continuously asks for harsh punishments for those that disagree with her and yearns for a society aligned by one right-wing ideology. Fascism comes from "fascere" (sp?) meaning "to gather in a bundle" or along those lines. The whole idea behind fascism is a "Gleichschaltung" of society, starting with opinions. Ann Coulter is a "You're free to voice your opinion, so long as its the same as mine" kind of girl, and that's what makes her a fascist.

Expressions of opinion =/= "fascism". The foregoing definition just tells me that you use the word as a mere term of abuse of someone whose opinions you don't like. I could apply the same definition to, say, Sweden's efforts to squash expressions of opposition to sexually deviant lifestyle choices (from what I've read, at least), and with more justification due to government action being involved. And IMO a lot of what she says is deliberately provocative in reaction to equivalent provocations from lefties. Which is another reason I like her :D

Nice try, though.

Ignore me if you want. It's your loss.

Perhaps I was being too subtle. My statement that some posters are fit only to be ignored was modified by the following statement that you haven't reached that status yet, and then by my response. The implication was that you aren't on my ignore list, unlike others who are.

You must have low standards.Nah. It's kind of difficult to explain...
Actually, think of it as an LG kind of immaturity/maturity. I had the impression you still knew how to have fun while maintaining the ability to be serious when you needed to. That and I usually don't associate people your age (or better, how old you were then) with having a family. But that's just my Eurocentric bias.

He doesn't know any better. ;)
Unfortunately, I do... :(
