Bob bump!  ;D ::)   36 views to.... ?






That video above loses a bit of its impact.  There's a pair of events toward the beginning that will distract a portion of the audience it's probably supposed to be targeting.   ::)

Even better work.  Tripled the thread views.  Very nice.



Just throwing the idea out there.  From the first video... The two joggers.  Appeared healthy -- They're jogging.  They seemed a bit unrestricted.  In the US, women jog in a more restricted way, if they jog at all.  And a lot are less healthy.  Therefore, the only logical conclusion.... Unrestricted jogging is probably the safest, healthiest way to go.  It couldn't hurt.  I think that's probably the unstated message of that video.

Yeah.  Haha.  You'll look.  Nobody will dare post now.   ::) ;D

Hm.   ???    ;D


I see three possibilities.
1) Some raging.
2) No response.  But this is merely a delayed reaction.  Violent retribution later.
3) A polite, formal (quiet seething) response disguising the results of #2.


This would be the time after you poke a bee's nest where the bees haven't yet appeared but you know they're in there.

You need to look harder. You forgot something..

*Bob does not understand, but since j_menz posted now, Bob is trying to come up with a way to pin all the blame on him.*  Assuming j_menz is a guy.  I've been on off on genders of members around here lately.

I'm not following the pointless picture though.  I looked it up.  Nothing.

*Bob does not understand,

You listed three possible classes of response, you forgot this quite common one.


but since j_menz posted now, Bob is trying to come up with a way to pin all the blame on him.* 

Do and I'll sue!!  :P


Assuming j_menz is a guy. 

Your assumption is correct.

Pointless thread?  Or women dancing on the beach in high heels is pointless?  Or playing volley ball on the beach?

See.... a fourth possibility is a pointless post.

I blame j_menz for all offenses in this thread! 




Whew.... *Bob is relieved.*  It's almost like we planned that.   I have immunity now, so I'm ok.  Blameless.  8)

Bob and Jmenz meant to go to The last post (no matter how pointless) wins -thread, but got lost on the way?

Perhaps you should ask m1469 about its intended purpose (not that any of what's gone on in it since she initiated it necessarily reflects that, of course)...

Best,

If you don't know, then you're part of the problem.  Shame on you.   Although I don't think the cowboy pic is posting now.

Haha.  Whew... Now I'm off the hook.

"Sexism" almost sounds like some kind of profession, even though it's obviously not meant to do so. "Every day", though? Perish the thought!

Best,

It is, and one that I have put considerable effort into over the years.

I hate working with women.

I was only following Bob.

Note to self: Don't do that again, it can't end well.

Is "with women" necessary here?

This is the main problem with the documentary.

thinks....

... and realizes...






The rest of the documentary is kind of blurred out after that.  Yet the first part I probably won't forget.  "Stupid hippy jogger... hey-that's-a-lady!" followed by "Wait... was that?"  (Did you notice the dancing bear?)


6.8 million views on that video?  For the message of the video... or something else?  Looks like m1469 found a way around the Youtube filters too.

I didn't bother watching the video, to be perfectly honest. My views are set in concrete, and the vast likelihood is that the video only would present those views with... quite a lack of aplomb.

Hm.  Looks like a Bob bump is a tenfold view increase.
