Mizrahi?

Nah, I was just amused at the seemingly parodical 'white bros' analysis. Also was pretty surprised that 'aspie' is a legitimate term to use. Learn new stuff everyday.

Then in 2017 America only the guardians of the 14 words wouldn't consider you to be white.

What do you mean by legitimate? It's not full r-word, but kinda offensive.

I'll find out soon enough. I'm moving in a couple of months to tek yer jerbs (in a red state even. goddamn jews).

The aspie comment was made by dvaut. no one seemed to mind so i figured it's legit.

I'm not sure if it's more or less offensive than this modding. Poor potato is now the OP of a BruceZ thread.

What red state and jerb?

I have no idea who potato or brucez are. I guess they are all aspies.

NC. Wife starting post-doctoral. Unsure of jerb, but i'll take 'em all. Also seems incredibly uninteresting to everyone else so I'll stop here.

It is interesting and welcome to America.

The Raleigh Durham area is interchangeable with other tech / university areas.

There's also 14 Words You Should Avoid Putting On Your Resume At All Costs, 14 Words That Need to Be Banished, and there's even 14 Words That Carry A Coded Meaning For Black People. I bet they do.

This thread is pretty much **** and I like the idea of derailing it to just BS. Potato is otatap, the poster who is now shown as the OP. It's easier to just call him potato.

NC used to be kinda blue until all the voter suppression, so by rights it's at least purple. Good luck on the job hunt.

Broken english, confusion and aspies everywhere.

Thanks Micro. I am far more concerned about finding a place to live. TA is basically a 4m people metropolitan. Chapel Hill has wooden complexes that looks in the pictures like what Melrose Place would look like 5 generations after mankind has been wiped out.
All i want is a large building made out of concrete.

first in epic thread!


Has Palin made any followup statement yet?

DVaut I think you're conflating a few things wrt Fly. I agree that his rhetoric in isolation isn't particularly unusual. I'll agree that the people who are #triggered by him are generally snowflakes, I MAY even co-sign the bit where people are unused to being talked down to thanks to social privilege (although I think if Fly unveiled his standard rhetoric against a woman, he would be judged harshly for it). I thought your post about Sklansky and the abuse he gets was a good one.

Separate questions though: Fly's rhetoric isn't unusual in tone, but is it unusual in how disproportionate it is to whatever "crime" was committed by the poster? And is it detrimental to the quality of discussion in this forum? I'd argue yes on both counts. I don't hate Fly as a poster - he posts some good stuff sometimes - but when he goes full Fly, it's annoying, it ruins threads and it drives people away.

None of those in the state. on the other hand, you will have Waffle House.

I spent a few days in the area last year while she interviewed. I tried to build up the courage and step into a Bojangles but couldn't do it.

Food will also be a challenge, no doubt. I did eat in a few great places in Charleston SC but had a tough time with the sugar amounts in most places.

DVaut I think this last one is particularly relevant btw, I bet if I'd asked you before showing you this link, you would have said it was impossible that someone who is LITERALLY WRITING AN ARTICLE ABOUT LANGUAGE WHICH NEGATIVELY IMPACTS MINORITIES could use the phrase "14 words" without awareness of its loaded meaning. Yet, there we are.

I think you have a different aesthetic than we have here. Are you looking for a Soviet Bloc style apartment building?

Just for a test, this house, imo, is something along the lines of what Americans with good taste like.



Does that seem crappy to you?

lol you're out of your element micro. soviet union bloc. goddamn americans man.

I've kind of lost interest and I'm a bit tired from spending 6 hours working on a roof in 106 degrees* while you pansies all complained about whatever so I'm not thinking about it too much, but you may be right. It's still might be too big a coincidence that it was about Trump's white power speech and comes from a conservative website and was posted and left up by an ultra-nationalist gun nut, but maybe.

*41 digereedoos to you.

Broken English, confusion, and people who are somewhere on the spectrum where communication and emotional attachment and understanding are challenging everywhere.

I live in what's called the White City. Google it. Don't you come over with your gingerbread houses and try to talk architecture with me homie.

White City, of course you live in White City.

jk

I don't hate it, but I certainly don't love it. There's stuff like that in lots of places in LA. A lot of it looks badly dated, like late 80s I think. To my eye the 1908 Craftsman kicks it's butt, but I'm some kind of hippie or something so ymmv.

wtf u talking about bro? Bauhaus buildings are from 1920s-30s (of course most were restored). It's a un world heritage site ffs. LA has Sushi. Those are pieces of raw fish on top of cooked rice. It has no goddamn bauhaus buildings.

Sure you did.

Dvaut says one uncouth word in a sea of intelligent writing and that's what you latch onto. He's a more empathetic poster than most, but I doubt he claims to be a saint. You likely don't actually gaf about the use of the word aspie anyway, you're just grasping at straws.

lol wtf, i didn't even know aspie was a word till today. I don't gaf at all, found it kinda surprising and funny. I already conceded to your clever insults before man, you are part of team winners.

Mediocre attempt at American Craftsman imo. Not horrible by any means, and has a respectable VORH. But if we're going to derail this derail, which we absolutely should, I want to see high quality examples of houses that reflect the era they were built in. Preferably the 21st century, because it's the current one.
