    6 days until I turn 19. And I don't have a proper job yet. But I do have some money coming in soon from a job I did a few weeks ago. Hmm, new car?

    Another feminist spotting at school. 15 minutes into this discussion on discrimination and she's already said that men don't get discriminated against and they can't raise children.
    I'm gonna try my best to trigger her, will report back.

    So glad I've never met a feminist like that (or at all) and I'm in college. They don't seem to understand what it means.

    Well, RoR actually does have many features that BeamNG doesn't have. For example being able to turn Diff Locks off and on while driving, it can run on an Intel Atom at over 30fps and it is also open source which is always a nice thing. As well as that it is also free. So while its physics and graphics are not as good it has its benefits.

    But i dont see why people are trying to turn this into an us v them sort of situation. It helps nothing and only ensures mutual degradation.

    Men cant raise kids?
    Bullshit. Some men cannot raise kids granted, but then neither can some women. I myself actually aspire to have kids of my own.
    Men dont get discriminated against? Statistically if a man and a woman commit an identical crime in the united states, the men on average get a greater than 50% increase in jail terms?
    Once you factor in those that which occur within the penal system, more men are raped per year than women. Men do also get raped outside of the penal system and yet the media stays silent.
    Major hot topic for feminists in the UK is domestic violence, hell even advertising against domestic violence provided by the government exclusively focuses on man on woman. Yet statistically more than 2/3rds of reported/discovered offenses are woman on man.
    Regardless of the suitability for custody, a woman is more likely to secure the rights to their child than a father, even if she is neglectful and lacks the income to care for the child versus a well off caring male.
    Here in the UK, women are less likely to be fired at work, why? Managers get accused of sexism if a female worker genuinely fucks up, the guys, bam, disposed of for fucking up equally or lesser.
    Until recently. women got upto 50% off their car insurance for same vehicle and coverage as a male in same geographic area here in UK. Why? Just because they were women, statistics did not back up this discount. Legislation was passed to criminalise discounting based on gender, and it was discounting, women were bought up to the same costs as men rather than men reduced down (which is an obvious money maker for the insurer, kinda understandable from business perspective).
    Men have a larger pay reduction and smaller legally allowed paternal leave time.
    If a woman goes to court claiming (and successfully proving) a man doing the same job as her gets higher pay, over 90% of these women then get their pay increased to the same level. WHen the inverse happens, 30% of men get their pay increased to the same level as the female being paid more.

    Christ, want to throw race in there? Statistics are quite prevalent on a black man being pulled over more often than a white man right? Split male/female for white drivers, roughly 50:50. Black drivers, predominantly male.





    The thing is. I support equality, most feminists I know are not feminists though, they are misogynists. They support the trampling of men. The majority of feminism is complete and utter hypocrisy.

    Added bonus. Women often make false sexual abuse claims against men, is this itself not discrimination.

    Final bonus, a lovely quote I found online perfectly demonstrating potential discrimination against males:

    Yeah they're pretty irritating, always loud-mouthed and entitled.
    We moved on from the sex discrimination part of this powerpoint, so I think I missed my triggering opportunity.
    Damn shame. Nothing better than listening to the idiot ramblings of a feminist.

    Same here it would be a useful weapon since its not as intimidating so your target wont run. but I guess hippies will start protesting at your house wanting you to free it.

    now what we need n BeamNG is a life sized dolphin I don't know why I just want one

    I don't know why but that reminds me of that one South Park episode were they're at that one aquarium thing and the employees prank the kids ( I belive it was all four of them anyways) by "making the dolphin talk" .

    Thankfully the conversation here has - at least briefly - moved away from ROR. But I figured I might as well say that I didn't mean anything with this post. As I said, I was just feeling bored and unhelpful. I'm with others in saying that some of you took it too far. Even my simple post there was unnecessary. Let's not do that again.

    mine was simple all I said I come from the BeamNG forum and I came in peace.

    talking about dolphins in New Zealand we don't have dolphins In captivity if you want to see them go see them where they belong in the wild.

    and of course the hobbit dolphin only seen in our waters.

    The thing is equality will never happen. The only thing that could possibly provide equality is TRUE communism, but that isn't possible because humans are inherently greedy.

    I wish it was a possibility because the state of the world now just makes me sick. When I think of games like Halo, Advent Rising and Freespace I am saddened by the fact that in those games the human race is united against a common foe but in real life that will never happen. The human race could never stop fighting each other over stupid petty bullshit long enough to ever unite as one.

    Everyone should be treated as a human being, no more no less. Of course we can divide ourselves more than that but why? We are all human beings (except those of us that are ET's) and we should all treat each other as such. There's no reason to fight over whose religion is best or who owns what land or whatever else people are fighting about these days. It's all stupid. As for the land thing spoiler alert, mother nature owns the land and she will take it back at a moments notice as has been proven by flooding, fires, earthquakes, droughts, etc.

    Do you think that I could sell my 650€ PC to a good friend for Christmas in order to get a better PC?
    I'm thinking about selling it to him for 300 to 250€.

    Might just get GTA V tonight - just so I can explore the open world and mess around with friends and mods. I'll probably never even do 1% of the story.
