    you couldn't really justify calling it a gingerbread man unless it had a lot of detail, perhaps a little too much detail

    as somebody who would call themselves a feminist (all decent men and women should call themselves feminists outta respect for those who fought for it... sorry, quoting ani again), i honestly don't care. well, yeah they should be called gingerbread men. yeah, actually i do care.

    this is a major issue, and should be brought to the attention of those in charge,

    We should have a petition. Once we get enough signatures, we can send it to pat the baker, he'll know what to do!

    I remember a funny story about feminism from CTYI, Legal Studies, Session 1, 2003: AJ wanted to see if ashling was a feminist so he touched her bum. The result (ouch) is shown in the not-so-clear photo which should be attached.:D (AJ is the one lying on the floor in agony)

    Feminism is silly. A gingerbread man is a gingerbread man is a gingerbrea...you get my drift. Well, okay normal feminsim isn't silly, like wantin a vote and rights etc, but the whole intense scary thing is...scary.
    Thems peoples should be put behind bras...:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 849 ✭✭✭mentalimplosion


    hahah... bras.... where would we be without them?
    anyone, i know people who would be seriously offended by your statement aoife and i'd be careful who you said it to *looks suspiciously over her shoulder*

    damn feminists are everywhere

    floppy.


    obviously they're gingerbread men. cos obviously, ultrafeminism-wise, if they were gingerbread women, being sold nake to be eaten it's some form of pornography or sexploitation.

    it's like that **** with the 'chairperson' it's CHAIRMAN!! CHAIRMAN!!!!


    oh and btw, pat the bakers make bread.

    That's actually one of the least subtle innuendos I've heard from a CTYIer. The fact that the majority of them are just completely random and don't actually mean anything probably contributes to this. :rolleyes:

    In your endo

    I know that probably sounded totally immature but it was worth it. It brings memories of last year's CTYI flowing... (followed by a babble of nostalgic jibber u don't want 2 hear.)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    Thta's one of the better ones. And aren't they meant to be immature? But yeah, last year was pretty full of such randomness.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 315 ✭✭gigglingrat


    Ah yes, that brings me back...

    I'll good your night
    I'll red hot your chili pepper.

    Happy times.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 66 ✭✭larry

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 315 ✭✭gigglingrat


    I guess women feel they are more deserving of a tribute that is not made of biscuit.
