I HATE M&M cookies. There's no reason to make them.

You're right, this IS fun!

When's the next meeting?

Fuck you. I love M&M cookies. If you don't like them, you're an ass.

That's the last thing this forum needs. I have to agree with chrisV to some extent, there isn't a very diverse bunch here.

I ate some mexican food one time, i'm pretty diverse.

I'm outraged.  ChrisV has personally insulted every single person who likes M&Ms.  I've had enough of it.  Just because he didn't know I like M&Ms doesn't mean that it wasn't a vile personal insult.  I don't know why that sort of thing is tolerated here.

A little contrast makes things fun.

I know.  I'm just pushing buttons, since I just discovered I have a great talent for it.  Why not go after another sacred cow?  :devil:

A truly open-minded person would never consider the term 'chick car' to be an insult. Why is it an insult to point out the fact that more women than men favor a particular car, and how is that insulting to any particular man who likes that car?

That's revisionist. The term IS an insult in common usage.

Did you in fact use the term to denote a positive reason to buy or own the car? Did you use the term to indicate that you liked the car because you feel more women buy it than men?

Your second sentence has no bearing on the first.

So, what is the politically correct term for a vehicle that appeals more to female drivers?
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

So "chick flick" is a bad term?  :rolleyes:


Sometimes things are geared for women, or are bought for women. I hardly think that because Tampax doesn't make tampons for men, Tampax is being sexist.

Good point. PT Cruisers look just like tampons.

Your statement has no bearing on the argument here. For example, Miatas were not made for, nor geared towards women, so calling them a chick car is not merely aknowledging that women like them, is it? It's like saying that the only reason someone would buy any Corvette is because they are compensating. I even got that one when I had my RX7 race car. I was actually told that the only reason to build a car like that was because I was compensating for something.

I'll never listen to your opinions again after what you said about M&Ms.  Did you even know that I order cake batter ice cream every week at ColdStone, with M&Ms and Nestle's cruch in it?  Your attack on M&Ms cuts right to the bone, and insults me deeply.  I'm going to ask the forum administration to ban you for it.

Of course, you found a couple pink ones, so they must ALL be chick cars! How could I have not seen that?

I was talking to Chris, and I mean it as an actual question. I'm not really sure what he expects us to do to appease him.
