jimbo: @gangstashy LMAO that is the BEST plan!! It's so funny, I had my sisters helping me hand out prizes, and they went "What are these rolly-ball markers? I never saw these before, these are cool!" so I had to give them a set for helping me out with the test, LOL!

jimbo: @gangstashy Everyone's writing was pretty good, except for @Scribus, LOL, and that was only due to a marker malfunction! ;) So in spirit, he has amazing handwriting. I hope your pony markers are being put to good use!

jimbo: @cinemagic I think I like you. ;) I was ranting about sizeism yesterday, and half of the comments were "but fat people are lazy!" It was particularly creepy when the comments came in the same breath as "but it's okay to say that because I'm a fat fancier." >.> Also, apparently I sound fat! Because you can't tell tone over the internet, but you CAN tell weight! (Mind if I add you?)

jimbo: LOL, just got temp-banned from !ponychan for calling out sexism. Commenting on women's breasts is a God-given right, after all! Duly noted, !ponychan: Sexism, good! Calling out sexism, bad!

jimbo: @starlightbolt Well, I would suggest you find better ways of trolling. The sad truth of the fact is, most people who espouse the same sort of beliefs as you are NOT actively trolls; they simply hold very, very bigoted beliefs. And at that point, it's not really trolling, it's just espousing hateful beliefs that aren't really offensive, just ... depressing, because so many people hold them as truths. To me, trolling is more outrageous - something like "well, you can CATCH the fat, by being close to fat people!!" or "Yes, I love fat people, Twilight Sparkle is fat!" or something. It is so ridiculous as to be unbelievable, and yet so outrageous as to be nothing but trolling. At least it is more amusing. Just my two cents.

jimbo: @starlightbolt Ah, apologies. Generally it's men who respond in the manner you did, so I made an incorrect assumption. I still hold that you are an offensive human being, however, and I hope you seek counseling.

jimbo: @pawnheart I hope so, too. I mean, he didn't respond with OMGGG YOU ARE AWFUL AND MEAN so I'm hoping he can at least take it somewhat into consideration, even when I said it in a very mean way. ^^; (Also, don't mind Starlightbolt, he was one of the dudes in here yesterday talking about fat people being lazy and whatever. He's basically a troll.)

jimbo: @pawnheart Yeah, I've seen it happen. There's a discussion going on about "don't say that, it's offensive" and the mods just want to quiet it down, instead of saying if it's bad or not. :P Which I can understand, but - c'mon, guy.

jimbo: @pawnheart Ehh, I think sometimes people just assume that alienating = not alienating to people like THEM. So straight people may say things that make gay people feel uncomfortable, and ditto for men and women. Sometimes it's not conscious, or even purposefully upsetting, but they can get very defensive when called out on it. I mean, NO one likes getting called out, but otherwise nothing gets changed, you know?

jimbo: @pawnheart That's how I felt, too. :I And I even said in one of my posts, "you can't bother to report it, because the mods think it's a non-issue." Thanks for proving my point, Soarin! XD You're right, drama IS worse than sexism! I've seen the light!

jimbo: @pawnheart Me too! It's sad, I'm usually not even on RDN that much, so I came on, and it's like, IMMEDIATELY, I'm told I sound fat and that fat people are lazy but it's okay because it's sexy, or something. So strange.

jimbo: @mrdragon Ha ha, I know right? I was left boggling, so ... at least it wasn't boring. But everything he said was just so played-out, it was kind of sad. "You sound fat! Also, fat people can CHOOSE not to be fat, they're just lazy! But don't worry, lazy fat people make me pop a chubby!" or whatever. Sexism, sizeism, what is that?

jimbo: @mrdragon You guys all seem very nice. :) Yesterday I got into an argument on here that eventually derailed into "Are you fat? you sound fat. But that's okay, because I am a fat fetishist!" LOL I wish I were kidding. I think the stupid people must just flock to me! ;)

jimbo: @colfax Oh wow, guido fights?! That's pretty rough. But I find that booze is what fuels a lot of these sorts of "HEYY YOUR BOOBS. ARE LOOKIN' AT ME *hurk*" moments, and for that, I can almost be forgiving. Everyone's stupid when they're drunk, so just - don't drink til you're drunk, if you know you're a butt.

jimbo: @herbalgreen I completely agree! Argh. I think sometimes guys think "oh, girls like it when we ogle them!," and while some girls do, most of the time it makes girls feel really uncomfortable and unsafe. :(

jimbo: @colfax LOL, nah, don't worry about it. I just feel like ... the idiots who lack any sort of basic human social skills are making the rest of us pony fans look really, really gross by association. Personally, unless I knew the person wouldn't be grossed out by it? I wouldn't go "HEY NICE apples" if someone happened to post a picture of their papayas next to their ponies ... but actually that would be really, really creepy just by itself. D8

jimbo: @pinhooves I am glad you are not, either. :) Honestly, I think if guys just kept their mouths shut, things would be a lot less awkward. Yes, it's nice to say "hey you look nice!" but what if it makes someone feel uncomfortable? I'd personally err on the side of safety, but I feel like "You look very nice in this picture" is a lot less creepy than "I WANT TO HAVE YOUR BABIES," which I've seen before. Or "wow that shirt sure is being stretched!," which was said, in relation to someone's boobs fitting into a T-shirt. >:(
