"Sweet Trav" (thespunbearing)

In my head right now is one phrase going over and over again.
"Discretion is the better part of Valor"
I really really really want to go on a massive rant about things that I shouldn't.
So I'm going to do my best to keep my mouth shut.
Enjoy a supercharged Studebaker for your troubles.

Nah, I don't want to start anything again. Just feels like this place is slowly turning into
All the while people whine about being single. Knowing that there are a lot of young men who frequent this site, it bothers me the "popular" opinions shared by many to the point that they need their own club house and the younger kids may be seeing this as an acceptable way to act.

It's a bunch of gen-y/"millenial" "introvert" beta males that couldn't get laid in a whorehouse. They can't pull their noses out of their phones or video games and actually go outside to talk to a chick, what do you expect?

Well, you know passive aggressive vague posts aren't going to solve any problems...

You're right, but at the same time I'm trying to calm down. Just trying to accept the fact that ignorance is temporary, stupidity is forever.

Welcome to my life, grab a coffee and let's vent.
Lest you unload on the ignorant sap who "doesn't want to make excuses" for his employee's extremely unprofessional behavior toward you, but justifies it anyway with "well he's going through a rough divorce and he's in the woman haters club."
Yea, that actually happened, in real life. I'd say "no words," but I had plenty.

I am quite interested as to what set you off.
Are you on Facebook? If you add me over there we can discuss less publicly

You're not the only one who is bothered by that, I promise you. Do we need another sub-blog?

I don't quite know how to feel about it – on the one hand, it's a good opportunity to move the "boys' club" discussions off OppositeLock, to somewhere more suitable. But on the other hand, it's implicitly being set up as a boys' club from the get-go.
As an automotive enthusiast who identifies as a feminist, I'd be really interested in discussing this further, but I also don't entirely feel like donning my flame-suit.

As much as I would love to grab a coffee and vent, I feel that it probably isn't the best idea to do it in such a public venue.

Cigars now too?? Is there nothing I enjoy that Internet dudes aren't circling the wagons around because god forbid I like things that some idiots decided are "manly?"
Also, can we laugh at the slight irony of a uber manly-men gathering post named after a place where one goes to suck on thick tubes with a bunch of other dudes?

I like the cut of your jib. I'm worried about the cost though. Some of our fellow oppos with kids might object to a $50 3-race outing. I'm down for karts any time as I practically grew up in one.
I guess I could put it to a vote and see what people want to do.

Oppo is about cars.
If they want this new "blog", they can go for it. I however don't think it needs to be publicized on Oppo.

Peter, your post wasn't the issue, this is totally not your fault. Like I said, I wasn't mad at you, and then everyone else flew off the handle about CENSORSHIP when you deleted your own post, despite many people stepping up to confirm you had deleted it yourself. The worst stuff from yesterday was the whining about Kat's MP post, not anything you did or didn't do.

ahhh. I thought it was made in response to the shit fling and to have somewhere to dicuss stuff that shouldnt be on oppo (exibit A: what I posted last night)
Didnt really see it as a "boys club" tbh.
