Oh goddamn, I remember this now.

In Battletech, there are only humans in the galaxy, but one book mentioned bird people aliens*. Fans now pretends they don't exist and get insanely spergy any time they get mentioned.

Naturally, when a Battletech computer game was released, goons named their multiplayer clan after those aliens and would start every session by squawking and generally doing all the kinds of things which have made goons infamous in online games.

It got to the point where just sending "squawk" over textchat before a round started would cause people to either go on insane rants against goons and bird aliens or just quit the game.

Why is using a can of lynx and a lighter to flamethrower your taint a bad idea?

Do you really need to ask that?

Look I know why lighting your taint on fire is a bad idea but I want to see if YOU know or are just parroting other people's points. Socrates once said flamus testus messus goopus which roughly translates...

I bet she saw him walking in with flowers, chocolates, and that hat from the Olive Garden parking lot and rapidly canceled while driving off.

Also, who the gently caress reserves a table at Olive Garden?

That is acceptable too.

(The girl probably pulled into the parking lot, saw that guy with a fedora waiting in front of the door, thought "gently caress no" and drove away.)

I guess I have to admit that I just don't understand the purpose of wearing hats for fashion. Yea I will wear a dumb hat that protects my face and the back of my neck while doing yard work in the heat but not gonna wear any kind of hat going out of my home. Already hate the feeling of my glasses squeezing my head.

Because all dogwhistles eventually just become slang for bigots, a way to signal to the in-group that you're with it.
