I Get Tired of Answering All the Questions….

You may often wonder who the Hell does Floyd think he is? how can I be as smart as Floyd? The answer, of course, is “never”. But for start you can go here to Sporcle.com for all sorts of quizzes and brain busters.

You are hereby forewarned. I am not responsible for your crank-like addiction to this site. That hat tip goes to Reader Kath.

    You may often wonder how can I be as smart as Floyd? The answer, of course, is “never”.

    You mean shaving off thirty IQ points and trading grades for gay trysts with closeted lacrosse players? Well, I agree with the answer.

    Oh, and unless you’re a Canuck or a Brit, the last quotation mark is supposed to be after the period.

    Periods, grammar, etc. I’m old school — the MLA can go straight to Hell. We don’t have lacrosse and I would never jeopardize my family/job for fleeting pleasures — especially for grades. I love giving bad grades too much. :-)

    plus any excuse to post a cool picture of Braniac…

    …for fleeting pleasures…

    And here we have it, ladies and gentlemen. An admission. In print. And all it took was a little creative baiting. So, who’s smart, again?

    On a serious note, I’ve always held that the middle age men (or women) who are married for twenty or thirty years, with multiple children to show for it, who suddenly “come out” to say that they’ve “discovered themselves” and their “true sexuality,” are full of shit.

    You don’t go that long and go through the process of having a family and not have any inkling of who you are, or simply doing it as a pretense to show that you’re straight. And the whiplash-inducing turn into left field doesn’t do anything to convince me that they’ve done any serious soul-searching, either.

    The truth is that these are people who want validation for being selfish and childish while carrying on with an erotic fantasy. And nay idiot who tells me that being gay isn’t a fetish, when people get turned on by some really odd things–pantyhose, balloons, and a whole host of other things–needs to have their head manually extracted from their ass.

    And if anyone carries on with that “born gay” bullshit, I will spit nails. Science hasn’t found a single genetic link, aka the “gay gene,” in contrast to conditions like alcoholism, yet apologists carry on with the superstition, in absence of any evidence. I’m willing to set aside any argument over whether the gay lifestyle is “right for them,” on a personal basis, but the blind, almost militant assertion is intellectually dishonest.

    Sorry for the rant. Had nothing to do with you. Just the mention of risking your family hit a nerve.

    Methinks you doth protest too much. Hmmm… :-)

    I don’t risk my family and/or job for anything. Open door policies for all meetings, etc. The growth in LGBT student populations just means everyone is suspicious when it comes to avoiding sexual harassment (sadly).

    And your rant is correct.
