P.S. I wish I could go to sales like that for comics M155_G33k - there are only incredibly rare flea markets here and they never have things like that. I used to do the same thing with archive floors in Forbidden Planet back home. It was so much fun going there and never knowing what old or rare issues you could pick up for next to nothing.
Yeah I love it. I was able to pick up the comic for a dollar and found out it was worth about 50 ^_^ but I normally like to just find the comics to read them. Plus I love the smell of the old comics haha nothing beats it.lol

Welcome to TL. I think your first post is fine, and you're perfectly justified to include a picture, as you chose to mention you're a girl. The community's first reaction is always "prove it" so I see nothing wrong with that.

Yet again you just *have* to use specific things I said to contradict my perspective. I'm complaining because I think chick sounds trashy - it's my opinion and I'm as allowed to voice it as anyone else on TL.
I used specific things in your post because I intended to contradict what you said. I don't recall saying you weren't allowed to post an opinion. You're completely justified to say what you think, just like I'm allowed to say that I disagree with it.
Definition of "chick" taken from dictionary.com:
chick [tʃɪk]
n
1. (Life Sciences & Allied Applications / Animals) the young of a bird, esp of a domestic fowl
2. Slang a girl or young woman, esp an attractive one
3. a young child: used as a term of endearment
Don't see what's "trashy" about that.
This is why I don't like commenting on blogs because you and Chill feel the need to do this almost *every single time* I comment. FFS.
This is the first or second time I've ever disagreed with you in a blog and every other time you post I say something along the lines of "great photos" or "thanks for your contribution." I could state countless other times where I supported or agreed with you. Please don't exaggerate things. Also, if you have a problem with me or Chill take it up on PM, don't turn this thread, which is someone else's blog, into an argument about you. Thanks.

I'm going to rule out the possibility of you using "Chill" and not talking about me.
On topic, there's no reason to flame someone introducing themselves as a girl. The ratio is like 1000:1 so the assumption is obviously that you're a guy. I don't see any problem clarifying the contrary.
Being upset with calling a girl a chick is just so out there I'm only going to comment on it in passing.
Hi miss_geek!

Isn't classifying a girl based on looks kind of trashy or at the very least, crude? Not trying to stir up anything, just posting my opinion like everybody.

It might be bad for another person to do it but if someone wants to comment on their own looks, I don't see how that's somehow illegal.

Girls only think "chick" is derogatory because they're super insecure. Guys don't put 2 cents worth of thought into subtext behind the word "chick".

Going to have to stop you here.
Obese people do not deserve respect. These are people that are absolutely disgusting and have no self-control. Someone who cannot respect themselves does not deserve respect. Obviously this doesn't apply to people with real diseases that do not allow them to exercise or lose weight.

I expected this thread to be good for a few laughs, baller and BuGzlToOnl delivered!
that and nevergg being as easy to anger as ever :D

This is pretty closeminded. What if someone just likes eating and doesnt mind being a bit overweight? I understand how its disgusting for someone to be overweight to the point that they cause discomfort to themselves and others, and are risking their health, but if someone is a few pounds overweight simply because they dont have the time/desire to spend their free time working out, and enjoy eating well, theres absolutely no reason not to respect their lifestyle.

So enjoying the site so far Mi55 G33K?
Gotta love these awesome discussions that completely take over a post.

Sorry I meant obese, not overweight.

Welcome, indeed. I'm pretty anti "OMG I'M A GIRL" blogs but from reading through you sound like you have a good head on your shoulders. Still don't understand why you had to explain that much about yourself, you can definitely make friends without putting out an ad

Super insecure, eh? "chick" DOES sound trashy, imo too. lady, woman, girl, female all suffice. Just agree to disagree, ok? Maybe you actually have to be female to understand why we feel this way. It's like the British word "bird" too. Quite degrading.

Its actually not that bad...
Some of us might remember Mynock's female friend and the thread regarding her boyfriend's big penis. Compared to that I say everyone is behaving quite nicely. Although its getting a little difficult to distinguish the real responses from the trollish/inside joke/satirical responses.

Sorry I meant obese, not overweight.
I'm not talking about morbidly obese people who need to drastically adjust their lives if they want to keep on living either. I just find people who get to that point somewhat mystifying unless they have very understandable reasons for being that way (such as a proven medical condition or taking drugs for something else which causes their weight to balloon - or some kind of extreme trauma such as losing their family.) Those who end up like that because of parental enablers letting them live without employment and catering to their every whims frustrate me.

I love the whole 'bookstore/comic shop' smell and atmosphere. It sucks that there are absolutely no comic shops here. We only have a couple of merchandise stores that cater almost exclusively to Gundam kit makers and military model kits. I'm not a fan of either so it's a tad frustrating. The Japanese comic books here are sold in both Korean translation and original Japanese as graphic novels and tankubon/collected monthly books only. I buy only about three titles to swot up on my hangul and because I'm an art junkie. The Western selection consists mainly of currently popular stand-alones like Watchmen and V for Vendetta or DC standards such as Batman. There's hardly any Marvel available :/
I *love* the bookstores here though - they're so random in terms of what you can pick up in the Japanese and Western import sections. Sometimes it's like Xmas.
