You have certainly earned your title.

Reading helps.

Colicedus, I've seen that before. Can't agree with the second because I don't believe in the concepts of "good" and "evil", and I'm not going to comment on the first. v_V
I did read it. I still don't see any of those words in my post.

I.e. you lose.

Right. Because it's impossible for words to mean the same thing in the English language; if you want to talk about what someone's said, you must quote them verbatim or no one will have any idea to what statement you're referring.

Do any of you realize that Renegade just might've been making a joke there?

I think you're the only one to realise the multi-tasking comment was me trying to be ironic...or sarcastic...I don't really know anymore. :(

I must have failed.

I'm aware it was an attempt at a joke. That doesn't immediately imply that you were not simultaneously holding that idea as truth; most such jokes are based on true statements unless they're just being uselessly random.

Ever heard of old wives' tales? Some are based on stereotypes, like blonde jokes, george bush jokes, and in this case, the false assumption that women always have a foundation personality of a maid of some sort.

You even said it yourself that it was a false gender-based stereotype, why are you using that to start an argument?

I said it was false, but Renegade's statement implied that he held it as true to some extent, which was my point.

I don't see how a joke can imply such a thing. It is a joke, is it not?

Drop it. You're starting to piss me off with all this useless arguing. You're not even attempting to be humorous in your arguing.
