Sorry. Inspired by another thread. Grin

Challenging questions for feminists.

Do feminists believe slates or tiles are best for the roof?

Do feminists prefer fitted carpets or floorboards with rugs?

Do feminists believe gammon is best cooked in cherry cola or classic coke?

Do feminists believe potatoes should be mashed or roasted with roast chicken?

Do feminists believe that before they smash the patriarchy, they should focus on male victims of domestic violence or prostate cancer?

I could go on all night but you get the picture. Hmm

I completely and utterly adore this thread with only 3 tiny little quibbles.

  1. It makes me feel a bit intellectually inadequate, something I'm not usually prone to

  2. It's a class goat, not a feminist goat, surely? Or is that a different goat? Which one has long hair?

  3. (this is actually a great big fat quibble and partially negates the first quibble above) TOO MANY DAMNED STRAY APOSTROPHES. Or is this an in-joke I missed? Should I have typed "apostrophe's"?

ps Shrodinger couldn't use the tortoise because Zeno had already shot it.

Based on the experiences of my aunts, about 50% of tortoises did turn out to be dead in the box come the spring. Smelt a bit as well. So much for those hibernation lessons from Blue Peter.

I never understood why Schrodinger mentally consigned a cat of all creatures to his box. I mean, anyone who's ever had to put a cat in a box knows perfectly well if it's alive from the awful noise it makes. He should have used a tortoise.

kickassangel · 23/01/2015 23:11

Betya the cat belonged to Mrs Schrodinger. Only she gets none of the credit.

Pretentious? Watashi?

Me too puffin. Up myself and proud of it. Grin

PuffinsAreFictitious · 23/01/2015 20:53

S'fine with me.

I am fairly cerebral. I have also been known to be a bit up myself.

This may, or may not be the truth.

YonicScrewdriver · 23/01/2015 20:51

Arse.

I did not think of that.

PuffinsAreFictitious · 23/01/2015 20:45

So we have a pub goat which is both dead and alive and a bit quantum?

You know we're going to be told we're too cerebral and up ourselves again, don't you?

YonicScrewdriver · 23/01/2015 19:07

Oh goddess, did we get one of those Schrödinger's goats?

Grin
UptoapointLordCopper · 23/01/2015 18:55

Ooo! A Maths thread! Where is it?

PetulaGordino · 23/01/2015 17:00

Yonic consciousnesseseseseses get raised. Opinions evolve and change and we get more information and analyse further. You can't expect people's views on celery to be static

ErrolTheDragon · 23/01/2015 16:46

The last I saw of the goat it was on a shelf in a whorehouse (a maths thread which developed in an unexpected direction). It might not have been a feminist goat though, come to think.

LightningOnlyStrikesOnce · 23/01/2015 16:42

No no, grimble saw it too - or rather didn't. We had definitely stepped into the pub's disembodied kitchen, and ... the goat wasn't there

Maybe it had run off with the gammon and cider. Oi goat, what have you been up to?

AnnieLobeseder · 23/01/2015 16:36

LightningOnlyStrikesOnce - the goat is in the pub. Right next to the cannon. If you were any kind of real feminist you'd know that. Sheesh.

ShumbTucker · 23/01/2015 16:27

Confession: I am a feminist and I have been neglecting my duty to raise the conciousness of my white goods .

I like celery, I enjoyed inserting blue dye into the xylem at school. They also described it as "turgid" which caused a snigger.

LightningOnlyStrikesOnce · 23/01/2015 16:24
LightningOnlyStrikesOnce · 23/01/2015 16:16

You mean you knew where the goat was all along and let me go ahead with this? aarrrgghh it's all ruined now, I need more celery!

YonicScrewdriver · 23/01/2015 16:14

Hang on, hang on, what?

I thought we AGREED about celery.

Well, I'm not sure I'm on the right board anymore

LightningOnlyStrikesOnce · 23/01/2015 16:05

ssshhh I am now cutting up my celery in accordance with the 7th haruspicial guidance on feminist convocations to try to ascertain the whereabouts of our goat and how closely 'they' are aligned with the transcendental ideals of mere creativity, in the hope that they will then reveal the whereabouts of the secret feminist handbook, that I may become an all-round better person.

DuelingFanjo · 23/01/2015 15:41
Grin I luvs you lot I do.
LightningOnlyStrikesOnce · 23/01/2015 15:15

I trust this is additional aspirational support: not been neglecting them yourself have you?

Only in aspiration is there life, only in life is there breath, only in breath is there inspiration. Onwards and upwards to join with the transcendental goddess, hand in hand with white goods, black and all other sisterhoods.

ShumbTucker · 23/01/2015 14:14

I love the feminist board, only here can I gain aspirational support for my white goods.

I was worried it was going to start getting ideas from the dryer and I would return home to this sort of situation....
