2) men and young people should stand, old females can remain seated.

That seems reasonable to me. You didn't see things that way?

I didn't see the woman was pregnant, until the indignant old bag brought it to me attention. I was just shocked at her hypocrisy. Basically I was wanting to know why the fvck she didn't you get off her own ass if it was such an issue for her. If I'd noticed there was a pregnant lady standing near me I would have offered her my seat.

at any rate, the point is that a social norm was violated by me, and the result was someone became very indignant and outraged.

Sounds reasonable to me too. Then again, according to aidanjm, pregnant women = heterosexuals and we know how we feels about those types of people.

If I'd noticed her, I would have offered the seat.

Male, 28... in my younger days, I used to get up from our table at restaurants (with friends) and just walk over to someone else's table, sit down, and chat with them.

Male
Asian
24
I was walking out to pay the check at Denny's with my GF/her best friend at 2 in the morning when I bellowed "Cunnilingus" at the top of my lungs - three times.
I have a caucasian GF that I frequently call ghostface/beloved patriot/cracka.
I have a "Pekin Chinks" shirt that I used to wear to class - once to my Japanese class there a little old Japanese lady was the teacher.
I've peed on a plastic baby jesus in front of my friends when I was a kid in highschool.
I've peed on a bronze statue of Abraham Lincoln a few years back.
My mother discouraged me from majoring in Art because there isn't much of a demand for one - so I became a Philosophy major instead.
I'd take my (mostly caucasian) friends out to Asian/Chinese restaurants so I could repeatedly call them beloved patriot/cracker/etc. and also bellow "how it feel now, oppressor?!/Payback's a bitch, innit!" towards them.
I used to walk around malls with a buddy of mine, innoucuously following people around and converse with each other about "personal" stuff (that we made up) loud nough so they'd hear about them.
I have a very strong liberal bend, disagree with a lot of the choices the national government has made, but is planning on serving the US Army as an Officer.

I can pronounce my R's and L's.
I've never eaten dog.

Male,
20. 21 in a month (WHOA!!)

I act childish with my brother, who is about 7 years young to me, but when I am out with friends, I don't like to have fun, I like to keep it serious. For example, the news was on yesterday and I wanted to actually watch the news, but they were talking because it wasn't sports news.

Anyways, the funny thing about that is that they were all talking until the sports news came, then everyone (all 5 or 6 of them) started screaming at me like, wtf stfu. I was like, hey just cos it's sports, take proper news seriously enough and I'll take your sports news seriously enough, and I just walked out. 🙂
