Frankly, I don't know how you can get them mixed up. They're not even remotely related. I mean, really, unless you really like orange soda in which case I've completely ruined this joke.
... I don't see the post you quoted. I only know it was literally the first part in this thread. Why?
Can I punch the person who thought that Evil Dead YouTube ad was a good idea? That thing scares the hell out of me before the Skip button works and I find myself rapidly clicking skip
There are ads on the internet? I never saw any of them.
Thanks Adblock.

I've turned off adblock on youtube because I want the people I watch regularly to have more money and I can't support them by any way besides watching the ads.
Same. It just sucks when there's the unskippable 30+s ads. Especially the 2min ones. Reload and hope for a short one.
I just wait, whatever the time. Of course, I once waited in the emergency room for 11 hours for a doctor to see me, so I have lots of patience.
If you're curious about that incident, someone got their signals crossed. The doctor actually left to go home and had to come back in order to treat me.
Well, she's got a point. Women are generally informed their entire life not to speak up if something makes them uncomfortable. Yeah, all the women support groups seem to always say to speak up... but that's not who women listen to. At a young age, they listen to their mothers, and their mothers say to be polite, to ignore hurtful or inappropriate things, to skirt the bigger issues where ever possible.
I do this myself. I have experienced quite a few situations where someone said something completely inappropriate that made me feel unsafe/uncomfortable and I just pretended to have gone deaf for a few seconds and continued on with the conversation as it had never happened. And even knowing this, I don't think I'd be able to change this reaction, because it's so ingrained as being the right thing to do in the circumstance. So, I support her for speaking up, because I probably would have just ignored it or started laughing.
My problem isn't the fact that she wanted them to stop, my problem is that she made two guys making dick jokes to each other privately as a matter of extreme prejudice to women, and instead of asking them politely, she publicly shamed them in the most immature way possible, made a huge fuss about it to the point that those folks lost their jobs for it.
Again, for making dick jokes. In a private conversation.
Women are already isolated in that industry. This will only make men more hesitant to interact with women out of fear that anything they do will be seen as sexism.
I don't really understand her problem other than the fact they were being disruptive. The women I work with make more sexual comments than the men. I don't think this is a sex issue in the wide sense. I'm all for equality and I actually do have more female friends than male, but I really do feel that this was her personal problem with people being disruptive and her problem with the subject matter. People talk like that. Immaturity isn't sexually exclusive. She could have turned around after the first couple of comments and asked them politely to keep it down as she was interested in the speaker or even went and got somebody. I think she handled the situation poorly.
I was under the impression that they made the jokes after she joined the conversation. They were telling them to her, which starts making it her problem.
I'm not against the telling of sexual jokes... but think of it this way. You go to a tech conference, you meet a woman interested in tech... and you start off by telling a sexual joke. That's far different from hanging around with some buddies, some of whom happen to be female, and having a good laugh at a dick joke. Because see, there's some familiarity with the latter. Everyone's in on it, everyone's comfortable with each other, the dick joke isn't targeted at someone in particular. Or if it is, there's enough trust there for everyone to know that it's for laughs only. It's context, really.
Man: Good one Peter.
Man 2: That's what they're for all right.
Lady: Are you telling jokes? I love jokes.
Peter Griffin: All right, then you'll love this one, okay. Why do women have boobs?
*she stares at him angrily*
Peter Griffin: So you got something to look at while you're talking to them
*she's shocked, then Peter laughs*
Peter Griffin: So you got something you look at while you're talking to them
*laughs*
Peter Griffin: So you got - *cuts to bosses office* Y-you want to see me, Mr. Weed?

Hmm. I read it as she was overhearing a conversation.

I just felt it was about time for it to come back.
I opened my shared glass can to find it filled to the brim with kombucha bottles. Welp.
Yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

I have no idea what is on there because the site owner is blocking my IP range and I am NOT doing a captcha and send a message to be unblocked.
