I just had a fun idea: Why don't I start making word-of-the-day threads? I love the English language (as stupid as it is), because there seems to be a word for just about everything. Learning new words is fun, and so is eventually getting to use one in a sentence. I think so, anyway. I try to learn new words every day, and as a result, I have a pretty decent vocabulary, and a couple of people here have taken note of that. So I figured, why don't I pass down some of my knowledge?
Here are the words I've chosen:
Salubrious - /suh - LOO - bree - uhs/
[salubriously] [salubriousness] [salubrity]
Derived from the Latin salus, meaning "health".
This one's one of my favorites. Salubrious--it's when something is healthy, or conducive to good health: A salubrious diet is one that will involve fruits and vegetables. It can also be used to describe a generally positive or fortuitous outcome, but this is more uncommon: hours of studying language has proven to be a salubrious endeavor.
Defenestrate - /dee - FEH - neh - strayt/
[defenestration] [defenestrating] [defenestrates] [defenestrated] [defenestrater]
Derived from the Latin de, meaning "down from", and fenestra, "window"
A couple of you may have seen me use this one before. Defenestration is the act of forcibly throwing something (or someone) out of a window: After a drunken squabble at the local bar, the ruffian was promptly defenestrated by his adversary. Definitely not a word to be used in any formal context, but can create a humorous atmosphere when need be: Suffering his sixteenth "game over" in a row, the child was primed to defenestrate his brother's Xbox One.
Fremdschämen - /FREM(d) - shay - min/
Derived from the German fremd, meaning "strange" or "external", and schamen, meaning "to be ashamed"
Here's a beautiful German word I thought I'd steal for the moment. We've all heard of schadenfreude, which translates roughly to the pleasure you derive from the misfortune of others (laughing at someone when they trip and fall is schadenfreude). Here is a word that basically means the opposite sensation. Fremdschämen is essentially secondhand embarrassment, or the empathetic sensation you feel when you see someone embarrass themselves or do something awkward in public--something that's cringeworthy. Since it's indeed a German word, I don't exactly know how to use it in an English sentence properly, but I could take a guess, and anyone who knows German could help me out: The class internally erupted out of total fremdschämen for the weird kid who gave a PowerPoint presentation on his favorite anime.
All right, that's all for today. I hope you learned something.
I probably won't do these every single day (but who knows--I don't have much of a life at the moment), but we'll see. I hope this wasn't too weird--I'm just trying something new, and hopefully it works out.
What do you think, though? Is this lame and stupid? Is this awesome? Should I never do it again?
I probably will anyway. This was a lot of fun to make, and I got vocabulary words for days.
Uh, so let me know.

I don't get it though.
It's a remake of the original, but it's also a movie game.
Is the movie just the first game as a movie?
the movie is a reimagining of the first game, yes i get the horrible feeling that it's gonna blow

I don't know any theologians besides C. S. Lewis, and C. S. Lewis was a moron, so fuck that.
Hitchens, of course.
Marx. Schopenhauer. Socrates. Wittgenstein. Me.

Cry me a river. If they can't have the self-control to keep their pathetic fantasies to themselves, then why should I keep my opinions about it to myself? i don't ever want to hear you whine when i make fun of how retarded substance abusers are, then including pot smokers

bearing that in mind

I thought you were older than 13, Verb
it's only an ad hominem if i'm using it as an argument which i wasn't it's just a friendly reminder that we're never gonna get through to you because you only care about yourself and your own self-interest

According to MM, you're a bigot if you find them gross I don't think that's what he said. I also find gay sex to be gross--if I didn't, I wouldn't be straight. That's... the whole idea behind not being gay, is that you don't find that sort of thing sexually appealing. It's normal. It's not bigotry--it's preference. The issue I have with you is that you're not just expressing preference. You're being a cockhead.

I can't help what I do and don't find repulsive. neither can i i can't say i find transfolk to be repulsive, but i do find some certain parts of the LGBT community to be a little too out there for my normative cisgendered brain to handle, so i have the gut reaction of, "ew, gross" but i'm not a bigot about it

You'll allow them to do it, but you'll berate them every step of the way? That's bigotry.
Then I'm a bigot.
why you gotta be a bigot though

A bigot would say "I don't like it, so you're not allowed to do it."
I've never said, once, that people shouldn't be allowed to do this bullshit. Just that it's moronic and disgusting.
"i'm not a bigot, but..." come the fuck on

I'm really not. Crossdressing is just as bad, though. Egh. "i think it's gross, therefore it's bad" i find cross-dressing kind of gross and weird, too it's just not my thing why you gotta be a bigot about it though

Acting like gender matters is basically the definition of transphobia. Well, acting like it matters if someone feels like they're the opposite gender is the definition of transphobia. Acting like gender matters in general is just... pettiness. Bigotry. Stupidity.

No. They're both cases of Body Dysmorphic Disorder. I didn't say they weren't, Aria. I'm just saying, he's one of these people who thinks gender matters, when it doesn't. Acting like gender matters is basically the definition of transphobia.

No one gives a fuck who you'd want to have sex with. Unfortunately, roughly half our country cares who you have sex with.
You know what I mean.

« on: June 10, 2015, 02:28:28 PM »
Are you really comparing someone who changed their entire gender to someone who got a nose job? That was probably a poor comparison, yeah. Gender is FAR more meaningless and inconsequential than the shape of your nose.

It's getting to the point where I'd be considered a bad person if I refused to sleep with someone because they're a trap. don't be ridiculous
Give it 15 years, "transphobia" will be almost as bad as racial discrimination is considered today
As it probably should. That's not what you said, though. No one gives a fuck who you'd want to have sex with. People don't consider me racist because I strictly prefer white women over black women, sexually speaking.

Incest is family marrying, not having sex, first of all. No, incest implies sexual activity. I'm pretty sure it's right in the definition.
