  - Yeah, I asked her because she's a Simpsons person. - Callisto Mar 3, 13:04 5
    - You just called your sick husband crazy. This is appropriate behavior to you? - David Mar 3, 13:06 4

        Sweet jeebus, have we really known each other that long? - musubi Mar 3, 13:11

LIR: Peglegpete: I don't know, they haven't talked to me. Just my tenant asking me if it would be ok. - ceregon Mar 3, 12:44 3

        heh-heh... -- nm - Diva Mar 3, 13:12
LIR: JackDawson. I guess I don't find the "but *he* can do it" argument effective. They school rule doesn't reject all forms of discrimination, it - oblique Mar 3, 12:40 15
- You used the key words there "protected class". There are certain classifications of people that are entitled to special protection. Personality - pmb Mar 3, 12:46 5
  - [deleted] 4
    - Yes, but it's on the school's premises. The group doesn't have to abide by these things, but if it wants the school's backing it does. -- nm - pmb Mar 3, 12:54 3
      - [deleted]

      - [deleted] 1
        
        What's funny to me is that more than half of us would probably be naked under the robes -- nm - oblique Mar 3, 12:46
- [deleted] 2
  - I would agree with both sides in that case. The group can do that and they should sign the policy -- nm - oblique Mar 3, 12:44 1
    - Yeah, I don't see what the beef is. By not signing the pledge, they are undermining their own comments. -- nm - TFox Mar 3, 12:47
- just for clarification, I was not calling you a jerk in the IM -- nm - oblique Mar 3, 12:42
