Sunday, 06-Apr-14 07:32:51 UTC from web -
@snowcone Probably gonna be even longer after this
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 07:34:23 UTC from web -
@snowcone I'm just here for the evening and then I'm gone for who knows how long. Until I feel like the site has something worth coming back to I guess.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 07:38:05 UTC from web -
@snowcone What did I do?
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 07:39:41 UTC from web -
@snowcone I never do anything though. That's me.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 07:41:31 UTC from web -
@snowcone Pfft. Doesn't count. And I barely do that anyway.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 07:44:25 UTC from web -
@snowcone I have trouble talking to people.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 07:48:53 UTC from web -
@snowcone But you're easy to talk to. Other people are difficult to talk to.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 07:54:27 UTC from web -
@snowcone So other than that I do nothing ever.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 07:58:40 UTC from web -
@snowcone I don't need that sort of condescension man
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:03:18 UTC from web -
@snowcone Meanie.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:06:05 UTC from web -
@snowcone I thought you loved him.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:10:49 UTC from web -
@snowcone Weird man.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:13:19 UTC from web -
@snowcone What now, lvoe?
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:14:47 UTC from web -
@snowcone ..Character.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:17:01 UTC from web -
@snowcone Isn't just being yourself staying in character?
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:17:45 UTC from web -
@snowcone I understand that in some way.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:20:35 UTC from web -
@snowcone You're confusing.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:30:00 UTC from web -
@snowcone Impossible.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:32:06 UTC from web -
@snowcone So True. But, how do you know if You are acting like yourself. Surely acting like somepony-else is acting like yourself in acting as somepony-else, right....
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:32:29 UTC from web -
@snowcone And Morally, surely it should be allowed as isn't it unfair and prejudiced on Gay couples not to allow them to share the same happiness of getting married?
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:38:47 UTC from web -
@snowcone and many people here, or, at least I think so, value equality highly, and so surely it should be allowed from a moral perspective by most people in this country....
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:42:08 UTC from web -
@snowcone but surely these 'Social Norms' are just what has happened in the past. I'm pretty sure that slavery was the 'Social Norm' a couple hundred years ago, however, now, we see it as an abomination. Why could Gay Marriage not be the same?
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:45:33 UTC from web-
@sleumas2000 @snowcone Social norms, are both the most important thing to any society , they are what bind it together as a society itself. Without them, there wouldn't be a society at all.
But they are also the most oppressive thing to anyone who live outside them social norms. People who fall outside them our oppressed, (not though any malicious reasons but still sometimes violently) from the playground to their death bead. whether it be racism or homophobia.
These social norms have to change slowly because they are not the result of any one individual but of a emergent property of the society itself.Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:51:27 UTC from web-
@vcgriffin but surely, as belief in Equality is a 'Social Norm' now, it would be fine to change things quickly, as everyone believes in equality, and those that don't fall outside the social norm anyway (Not that I'm endorsing social norms. I'm not a massive fan of them, but then again, I wouldn't be because I fall right outside them in most possible ways, including choice of TV show..)
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:54:04 UTC from web-
@sleumas2000 That's subjective. Were it truly that an overwhelming majority endorses "equality" above social norms, this discussion wouldn't be happening.

@snowcone It's too late for this man
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:45:57 UTC from web -
@snowcone fair point, I can't argue with that one.
Sunday, 06-Apr-14 08:48:05 UTC from web -
@snowcone Not that long ago, I was just like that, in fact I got so obsessed with it that I'd keep arguing even once I knew I'd lost. I'd go into debate mode, and then I'd end up papayasing off one of my friends, and so I stopped arguing as much.
