My dander is up, my cookies are frosted, and my gears are ground.

I thought this was going to be some sort of german hardcore video by the preload and misreading the title.

die bart, die


Blue - 2012-08-08

What the fuck. The previous comment you were duplicating only made sense in the context of the comment it was a reply to.

Die + German = Simpsons reference

A three word phrase with the word die in it does not justify the reference. Now, it's true that you were probably under the impression that it actually fit the formula of Die [blank] die. I kinda thought the same thing too, but that's because I had that joke on my brain. The only way you could get that impression was if you'd already read the better version of the joke you posted.

The shittiness of your joke was intentional. Die shitposter scum.


TheSupafly - 2012-08-08

Jesus shut up blue


Sudan no1 - 2012-08-08

Riskbreaker, I can't believe you stole my joke. I hope Anita Sarkeesian shits on you.


Sudan no1 - 2012-08-08

or shits on your favorite vidyagame, at least.


Riskbreaker - 2012-08-09

I doubt she could pass the first battle screen in Vagran Story.

Vagrant Story sucks. Have we done that yet?

Riskbreaker - 2012-08-09

That has to be a very small universe.


Blue - 2012-08-08

I actually wish harm including death and dismemberment on the people that are responsible for Transformers 2.

Also, any of you motherfuckers that say shit like "It doesn't matter to me that you're transgender" to women you met on a TS dating site. Like we don't fucking know where we met you. Die in a fucking fire.


StanleyPain - 2012-08-08

What the fuck are you talking about?


chairsforcheap - 2012-08-08

stanley beat me to it... I think crank is involved


fourthguy - 2012-08-08

Did Tumblr spring a leak or something?


Blue - 2012-08-08

The first paragraph is a direct response to the line "Wow, this movie is terrible and whoever made this needs to be shot". I basically echo that message. It doesn't really add to the conversation, but seriously, fuck that movie.

In the second paragraph, I echo the "die cis scum" message, but restrict it to a very specific group of people that say a particularly offensive and stupid thing in a specific situation. I am a transwoman, this has happened to me, and when it happens I express a sentiment similar to "die cis scum".

What part of this isn't self explanatory? Is there a an unclear antecedent in there? I do that sometimes.


OxygenThief - 2012-08-08

Can I buy some pot off you?


Ursa_minor - 2012-08-08

Blue you are a actually a retarded person.


Ursa_minor - 2012-08-08

maybe you should go do some more meth and maybe, oh I don't know, try submitting a video


Blue - 2012-08-08

You know what? I actually do have something wrong with my brain. I have a hard time with communication and social situations. I'm not surprised you noticed. It kind of a shitty thing to shame me for, though.

No, I'm not on drugs, either.


StanleyPain - 2012-08-08

I dunno, maybe i'm just annoyingly old fashioned, but I figure it does a lot to totally derail and erode your progressive social cause when you try to use massive logical fallacies to excuse offensive hyperbole against the oppressors using the same thin excuses that the oppressors use to justify their own behavior.
Pretty much every day LGBT people have to endure endless hate speech disguised as "jokes" flung at them by bigots and the bigots, many times, get passes from the media and society at large by dressing it up as "*wink* *wink* OH DON'T TAKE IT SO SERIOUSLY", so I don't really see that as a viable excuse for turning around and doing it to people who don't deserve that shit either. You can spin and spin and try to argue 'Oh no, the "die cis scum' is only meant for SPECIFIC PEOPLE, but it falls apart just the same as when dumb racist or sexist people say something like "I know there's some good negroes out there, but damnit most of them are criminals!" Being edgy and all that shit in the name of drawing attention to a cause means that you have to walk a super, super fine line between knowing where to draw the line and where that line ceases to be clever social satire and when it's just attention-whoring so you can feel like you're doing something for a movement apart from blogging or whatever. So, again, maybe I'm old fashioned, but I think double standards are still a pretty stupid thing to be cool with when trying to argue for social equality.


Oscar Wildcat - 2012-08-09

Well I for one got a great deal of enjoyment from this thread. Stars to Blue, for lapping the field and leaving everyone scratching their heads saying WTF?


Spike Jonez - 2012-08-09

It doesn't matter to me that your transgender, Blue.


memedumpster - 2012-08-08

I kept hearing it as "Diocese scum."
Also, is that a ZZ Top necklace?


fedex - 2012-08-08

s/he WISHES! nah, they look like this

Blue - 2012-08-08

Just in case anybody assumes otherwise, I don't actually agree with the person that made the video. This person is very smug, and also wrong.

If someone gets a tattoo that says "Die Cis Scum", cisgender people have every right to be offended. That's pretty much the point of getting that tattoo. It's meant to be offensive.

It isn't the same as anti-trans bigotry, but that doesn't make it right.


Adham Nu'man - 2012-08-08

I'm a simple man and I'm just happy I learned a new word. The video was a little boring though.


Maru - 2012-08-09

All you do is post this pedantic nonsense. I'm not the most popular commentor either, but at least I contribute. You don't submit anything, and you have barely any hopper activity.

Earn your screeds.


Maru - 2012-08-09

And yeah I'm also going to shame you for being an asocial lunatic--fuck your brain problem. Wise-up, and quit acting like an asshole.


candyheadrobot - 2012-08-09

I got the joke Blue. On the other hand though, how does this statement differentiate from anti-trans bigotry?

Sincerely just playing devil's advocate btw. I know the difference, I'd just like to hear your answer.


Blue - 2012-08-09

There's a tremendous difference in the amount of power held by the different parties. Transpeople can't even credibly claim to not associate with cisgender people. Even those of us that separate ourselves as much as possible still depend on cisgender employers, customers, friends or family members.

If I tell you I don't like cis people you can reasonably assume that I wouldn't dare say that shit in front of my own friends. If a cis person says they don't like transpeople not only is it plausible that they actually have like minded people to hang out with, but it's pretty likely that the average cop, judge, or employer will agree with them.

It's an important distinction to make, but not so much when it's a response to a false equivalency nobody made.


fedex - 2012-08-09

I had to look this up:
"In gender studies, cisgender (play /ˈsɪsdʒɛndər/) and cissexual are a closely related class of gender identities where an individual's gender identity matches the behavior or role considered appropriate for one's sex.[1] There are a number of derivatives of the terms in use, including cis male for a male with a masculine gender identity, cis female for a female with a feminine gender identity, and cissexism. In addition, certain scholars have begun to use the term cisnormativity, akin to the queer studies' heteronormativity. Kristen Schilt and Laurel Westbrook defined cisgender as a label for "individuals who have a match between the gender they were assigned at birth, their bodies, and their personal identity", complementing transgender.[2] A similar adjective is gender-normative; Eli R. Green wrote, "The term 'cisgendered' is used [instead of the more popular 'gender normative'] to refer to people who do not identify with a gender diverse experience, without enforcing existence of a 'normative' gender expression."[3] Jessica Cadwallader characterizes the slightly wider cissexual similarly, as "a way of drawing attention to the unmarked norm, against which trans* is identified, in which a person feels that their gender identity matches their body/sex".[4]"

WELL THAT CLEARED EVERYTHING UP RIGHT?


CornOnTheCabre - 2012-08-10

you really only need to look at Caius's empirically perfect one-liner to totally understand what cis means.


fedex - 2012-08-11

yeah, I get it, that was well done
