I saw you over on Company of Men. Nice of them to let a lady of a certain age like you participate 😆

The constant editing suggests the squirrels upstairs are on double shifts 
 

For someone who “doesn’t give a shit,” you reply a lot, edit obsessively, insult freely, and whine loudly. It’s a strange way to show indifference, and not very ladylike of you Madame 👩‍🚀

 

First rule of thumb with desperate  sociopaths activate! Refuse bait. Straitjacket on standby. Be the management.

Did you wiggle out of it? I must be out of practice. Yes, I’ll accompany you personally. We know you depend on Keethquiff but it’s a cunttrolled product … all we can offer is sedation. Oh wait, boredom progressing to narcolepsy is one of the indications. You’re golden if you can tell Siri to reach your dealer. Maybe it’s coded, you know, a number within your ranting, what with your AI deficits and all. While at it ask for basically understood colloquial meanings … do or don’t … I don’t give a shit.

No, you may not go down on me. Stop persisting. Sorry nobody clued you in to advanced interpretation of lazy emoticons. Your vote does not count, you lack suffrage rights, accommodating you well it’s unprofessional and I have standards apart from interest conflicts on top of that. I cannot recall all images and try to redact many for personal wellbeing but my reliable spidey sense says resoundingly no.🤮

Lights out for the inmate. Gone fishing.

At least @unicorn has ceased - no doubt temporarily - spouting a universal truth that is far from universal. Only in America!

But surely you realize you are lecturing to a substantial proportion of contributors to the thread who lack reading comprehension and whine about how put upon they are when content mismatches their level of intelligence. 

You can say that again.

Yet again you suggest that in America and with minimal numbers in other countries, the benefits far outweigh the risks. How anyone can expect that ridiculous suggestion to be fact when the vast majority of the non-religious non-cultural uncircumcisied world has decided for its own reasons that such comments are not invalid and circumcision does not factor into their thinking totally beats me and any and reasonable reader!

...

I get it that most parents will simply follow the lead of the baby's father when making the decision to circumcise or not, rather than following the facts of what's safer for the baby. No one is saying parents shouldn't have that right. After all, the risk of death due to lack of circumcision is less than 1 in 10,000, the risk of serious kidney infection less than 1 in 400. Like a bunch of old-timers will say, they never had seatbelts, infant car seats, or airbags in my day, and I came out fine.

Of course, infant circumcision is mainly done to protect the baby's own life, and doesn't have the same public health consequences as immunization. Actually, there is some public health benefit which will come later in that infant's life, mainly in the form of STD's, but that's not the main reason for infant circumcision. Of note, there are some routine interventions given to infants, such as an injection of vitamin K at birth to prevent bleeding in the brain, which doesn't have public health consequences, but is done solely for the baby's benefit. Vitamin K injections are part of routine orders which are rarely even discussed with the parents.  

What I don't appreciate are BS statements such as circumcisions being too risky or causing sexual problems, both of which are false statements (and the ones usually given by the anti-circumcision crowd). The worst is when elected government officials spout such BS in order to try to pass laws removing parental decisions on what's best for their baby boys. So you didn't have a circumcision and don't want your baby boy to have one either. That's fine (as long as it's an informed choice, having been given truthful information).
