I'll try to run that one by my dad when I see him tomorrow. Even though he's approaching 80, if I never post here again, then you'll have the definitive answer. On second thought....maybe I won't

Someone should post this the next time they want a special day/week/month/year for a race/religion/sexual preference/etc.



I'm with you Rick....sick of the special treatment bs....just do the best you can do and everyone will get along.

I keep seeing the subject as "Straight white guys mouth" and that's disturbing.

I had no idea my mother was so far ahead of her time. She was saying "my gosh" 60 years ago. If any of us said "God" in any but a prayerful way we would have gotten our mouths washed out with soap.

Can't do it. I'm a child of the Viet Nam era.

Yes to the hat. I hate seeing hats indoors. Too many phones, keys and glasses cases in my pockets these days to carry a knife. I'm progressive enough to call the "ladies" women.

He stood up and said what about straight white guy engineers month and the whole place went quiet. He said the hole mood of the meeting went south after that.
What's amazing is that (seemingly) none in those groups realizes that they are being treated like retards. I mean, do we meet someone who is Black(or woman, or gay...) and an engineer, and say "Wow. An Engineer, even though you're Black! (or woman, or gay...) We should celebrate your overcoming your obvious deficits to become an engineer. -- How about we dedicate a MONTH to your awesomeness of overcoming that huge deficit."

Maybe we should, if they are too stupid to see the insult.
