I have earned my adulthood.

Here is a scary thought for you and your side King. I am the closest to you in demographic and voting you are going to have in my age and education demographics.

Now, make any reply you desire.

You want to be addressed by a title now or did I read that incorrectly? Your typing is often off and I shall hold my opinion as to why that may be.

I liked that part too.

I wonder if addressing him as, "Your Grace" would be good enough or should it be, "Your Excellency"?
"Lord Humongous" from the Road Warrior movie?

Would be interested in some perspectives on this?

Because I definitely see the hypocrisy of the woke mentality.

https://scholarship.kentlaw.ii...&context=cklawreview

Years and years ago I had this big long list of grievances against lots of folks for no particularly good reason and my assistant fire chief suggested to me that it was much easier to take offense than give offense. Big hard pill to swallow for me.

Not to long before or after that, his sister in law ( and former fire chief,) was listening very intently to me complaining about everything and everyone and when I paused to catch my breath and wipe my tears she asked," gee Scott, do you think it's everyone else or do you think it's just you?"
She got instantly added to the list!!!

If someone is going to take offense at blackface, I think most everyone doesn't want to give offense and so we avoid it.

I don't think most of us take offense at cross dressing, but we would like some kind of say so when it comes to the where, when, why and how our offspring are exposed and introduced. I've feel no need to explain or be forced to explain cross dressing to my six year old. I have that authority. They have no reason or authority to force otherwise for example in a drag queen story hour.

If by any tradition, societal norm, custom, cultural practice or opinion women have not had to share team sports or bathrooms or clothing departments with men, I certainly think change or different practices could be good but a bit of discussion and wisdom well in advance seems called for. Over the past several decades it seems the majority agree that blackface is a performance that is not appropriate in our culture. I don't care for it nor would I participate as an audience.
If men are to be allowed in womens sports and other gender exclusive venues it also should have well thought out and very broad public support, not because we don't want to hurt Sandy's feelings. It seems at this time many women athletes and sportswomen don't like the male intrusion.

( Get it? "Sandy") aren't I witty.

Was it ever decided for us if we need to refer to Sparky with a specific title?

"Ma'am as in ham"?

I hadn't heard yet, what do they address King Charles as after the initial, " your Grace "? Pretty sure it ain't, "Ma'am as in ham".

Should the kid be "Excellency " or "Benevolent"? Sir seems a little common. I think Baron would be great! "Baron von Heym".

Standing by for my correction.

I personally think " Junior" would be more appropriate..... But thats,just me.

It has always been my experience that when a,petulant little boy has to tell you that he's all grown up ........ He really has a long way to go......

Id happily buy them lunch, a bouquet, a Christmas card or mow their lawn for them, but I'll not be asking a man to model a ladies bra for my daughter. How goofy can it get?

We wouldn't ask PETA for assistance skinning a buck nor would we ask The American Lung Association for a light.

By the time he was 65, he was a Republican and didn't give a shit about the poor.

Now, he's 92 and a big Trump supporter. Has FOX News on twelve hours a day. Still doesn't give a shit about the poor, and thinks "Trump was sent by God to save our country."

Looking back at my own life and career, I peaked, was at my sharpest, at about age 45.

We have real problems. This topic is not one.

What is clear is a very large part of our listers care what others do with themselves, what private companies fo from a hiring standpoint.

Those are not very libertarian or conservative positions.

Gaging at gnats while choking down President Trump calling for suspension of the Constitution and his reinstatement as President.

Scott King: There is no blathering when you challenge to my credentials is checked.

If you wish I can send my appointments to you. I have others on here.

I am also a state Commissioner that regulates for profit schools in KY. Ask and I will send it to you.

You want to call me a kid. No, I will not let my life’s work be made trivial by you.

You have no superiority to me or anyone else here.

So, take your condensation, your attitude, and go complain about the church that looked down on you for an unmarried girlfriend.

What I am. I am. I will gladly stay here ruining your day apparently.

The only thing I have to do to live the life
you wanted to live is not die in my sleep.

Discuss me as you wish. If I am your biggest problem, you have a blessed life.

YOU have real problems, in the West.

You have started glorifying the unacceptable in human terms.

Your universities that have been so great in the past, don't allow anyone a free opinion any more.

Blacks who have never been slaves, are demanding payment from white who have never owned slaves.

What an utterly fucked up society yours have become!

A freak is upset because he wants to be a woman, but has a dick and balls, and doesn't know whether to go to the ladies or gents toilets??

Fucking hell, what next?

Serving shit in 5 star restaurants?

Yes kind of agree. I remember the moment I gave some advice based on experience, knowing that the younger guy I was talking to me, was about to do exactly what I would have done at his age.
At that point I thought I was grown up but it wasn't till I was introduced too the idea that as we gain knowledge, we begin to realise how much we dont know. Which kind of made me less certain in my opinion and willing to see others views that I really considered myself adult.... Except....

I never really want to grow up. I find pleasure in doing things well below my age at times.

Well I don't think I am a homophobe, but I boycotted Bud Light many years ago because it is terrible swill. Not my idea of a good beer.

Seems to be a common theme for you people to pass judgement on the quality of Bud Light beer. I don't even drink, but I'm smart enough to know that it doubled the sales of any other beer in the world. Since nobody is making these people buy Bud Light and it's not like 1/2 the price of everything else on the market, your opinion is in a very small minority.
