    Now then....How many Centauri does it take to change a light bulb?

    Four.

    One to change the light bulb.

    A second to murder the first one and take the credit (for changing the lightbulb, that is).

    A third to report the second's crimes to his corresponding rival in court.

    And a fourth to arrange for his associates to bomb the living shit out of the third, second and first centauri, along with any lasting traces of lightbulb.....

      Why?

      You should know all about that Omahastar.

        How many Minbari does it take to screw in a light bulb?



        None... they always surrender just before finishing the job, but won't tell you why.

          Recently, there was a reckoning. It occurred on November 4, 2014 across the United States. Voters, recognizing the failures of the current leadership and fearing their unchecked abuses of power, elected another party as the new majority. This is a first step toward preventing more damage and undoing some of the damage already done. Hopefully, this is as much as will be required.

            Goddamn people. All of this anger over a little joke?!

            Jan has asked that I edit my original post...well, I do apologize to deelsee7 for the rape joke, as stated before it was not intended to be serious in any way.

            My offense has come from the anti-gay sense I've gotten, which really upset me. As for rape, I've been emotionally raped for years by straights, and yet I take the word as power to me and make light of it in order to render it powerless.

            I've also done the same with such words as fag, faggot, aids-whore, etc.

            I really do apologize for my joke deelsee7 if it upset you.

            That said, I will not edit my original post. Posts are like life, you can't go back and just erase what is said, it would be pointless now. Had deelsee7 PM'd me quietly on the QT, I would've edited the post when no one was looking...but now it would be like the old saying, "fixing the barn door after the horses come home." So, the post stands. I have, however, apologized for the joke.

            There was no "discussion" of rape as a joke. I was one little line between friends. The singling out of gay men is what pissed me off. I know many straights who've made just such lewd and/or harsh jokes.

            Bottom line, if I offend someone, PM me and say something in a nice and kind way, I will most likely apologize for it. But, again, I will not censor myself because something I say as a "gay man" might offend.

            It's a little thing called free speech, besides the fact that I am not Lyta here, I have no way of knowing when what is a joke in my view could possibly offend someone...at least until that person tells me they were offended in the afore mentioned manner.

            Now, that said...drop it! The one who said it has apologized (now three times). No sense in attacking. I was stating my point in my original response, now I've hopefully clarified it.

            Since this has been between deelsee7 and I, I would like to recommend that it be left between her and I and not the whole forum.

            On that note, deelsee7, if you wish to talk about this further with me...feel free to PM me and I'll be more than happy to talk as adults, just us and work this out. The rest of you...enough...back to topic!

            Kudos for not changing the post.

              No offense was intended, it was a joke...and no one's said you can't be just as crude, rude and socially unacceptable as you wish to be on here as well.

              Believe me...it's not just the gay guys. You say you have no problems with gay people, but given how you singled us out and got a bit pissy, you seem to have some.

              Believe me such language and jests are commonplace among all of my friends, both gay and straight. You see, no one was actually suggesting rape, it's the sarcastic irony of the joke. So your comparison to JMS being asked to use it in CRUSADE is like "apples and oranges" as JMS would say.

              I will not necessarily curb my free speech, at least in this case. Had you PM'd me or Omahastar and talked about it in such manner as to say, "I'm a bit offended, is there any way you guys could cut back on such talk." Well, then I probably would've suggested such to everyone. Now...

              No one meant to offend; sorry you were, but I won't censor myself.

              I might add that we found out that "can't rape the willing" so technically it wasn't rape.

                        And death there was...the death of my faith in the rightness of my light bulb.

                            None. I am a Ranger. We walk in the dark places no others will enter.
