    Can I buy you a sense of humor for Christmas? Or at the very least an understanding of the American music cannon?

    Sexist?

    I know you were away for a time Matt but if people don't agree with your opinion you are either racist, sexist or both.

    If you don't agree with me 100% you are 1000% Hitler. Got it.

    I also don't understand how someone who believes in UBI and Medicare for all is an IC.

    So you're saying it's our fault because of our lack of knowledge of Billy Joel songs?

    Gonna have to plead guilty on that one dude.

    And while I know you think it is funny, AOC is not "practicing" politics. If you can't see that as sexist, you need to go see your optometrist.

    And, FWIW, that is my favorite Billy Joel song.

    Talking about cultural references, just remind what IC means again? Is it 'involuntarily celibate'?

    That phrase always amuses me, tbh.

    Over here we just call them wankers :)

    Song. Lyrics.

    I like cheap blended scotch on the rocks--LOTS of ice.

    Along with my pizza preferences, I think I have the most unrefined palate in this forum.

    "Incel."

    Or "Jordan Peterson fanboys."

    Either one is fine.

    If practicing politics is sexist then what does it mean when it is stated that someone is practicing medicine?

    Yeah, I don't think the 'sexist' line makes much sense in this case. If that word was used in isolation then, sure... other than that, no.

    I like cheap blended scotch as well. I was on a bike trip through the Smokey’s and needed to clean my 11 speed cassette bad. The town didn’t have a bike shop or open hardware store...the liquor store saved the day!

    I don't want them 'practising' on me, that's for damn sure. I want them to have 'practised' on someone else and THEN they can treat me.

    Heh.

    I've never developed much of a taste for high-end liquor at all. Or wine, for that matter. It's all too busy for me. If I ever feel the need for a stiff one, I'll do a shot, or maybe sip some rum neat. Bulgarian rakia, if we have any (we almost never do).

    Fortunately, I married a beer-drinking woman so we're on the same page when we're getting our drink on. I'll have the occasional whisky on the rocks and she'll mix it up with a gin and tonic now and then, but both of us are drinking beer 95% of the time. And not fancy microbrew IPAs, either.

    Well if we have to analyze a stupid ********ing meme this deep, one can interpret "practice" in the way a high-level yogi practices or how a pro athlete practices.

    But we shouldn't have to if you all weren't humorless asses

    You have the musical tastes of my mom then. Scenes from an Italian Restaurant is his magnum opus.

    IC around these parts always meant "independent centrist"

    IC as incel would be cute. Tell my pregnant wife about that one.

    Hopefully @superdave will open a "Discuss Semiotics Here" thread soon.

    Actually that is LITERALLY what she is doing. An optometrist practices optometry, a lawyer practices law...

    You know that words do have more than one meaning, sometimes, right?

    Of course they do. But when you're a decathlete in the victim Olympics you take offense to everything.

    Usually way after the discussion has gone long past its sell-by and becomes totally wasted effort.
