I'd ask my s.o. whether he was lying about his gender online or if he had something important to tell me about his gender identity.

I'd be surprised, but a lot would fit. They're both beyond brilliant, but I'd be mystified by the girlfriend's passing off of little tech around the house type jobs to me when as Rubycon she could wire a black-and-white TV from the '40s to do 1080p.

I think we need a Rubycon fan club

Agreed! Someone start one up on Facebook.

Wasn't Rubycon the bint prancing around with a sig that said "I'm not a female"

I know several members have done that, but this one strikes out at me.

Hasn't this member even gone on L&R about how it enjoys plugging its girl friend?

Sorry but you must have me confused with someone else.

Why stop at 1080 lines though? ;)

That was definitely not me. I've never used a signature. It saves time to load pages by turning them off! ;) I've never gone to the LnR forum since it was made private. At my age I'd be considered a pedophile at that point! ;)

I have not had an answer whether a blog would be allowed. In the past the answer was a swift and firm no. :(

You may be thinking of Adul??

And I think this is getting into the realm of personal attacks since your original mis-assumption was corrected and you decided to plug ahead and use some pretty offensive language.

How is this personal attacks? I could have sworn that was the case.

But now that I have been corrected, no need to start busting out the pitch forks of self righteousness.

You do know that the term bint = c*nt, right? Calling ANYBODY that is a personal attack.

It's a very casual form thereof, besides in the UK, they don't even break a sweat, so no need to get all upset.

And besides, up until a few posts up, Rubycon was an asexual being who could have been an androgynous male, which is why I used the term lightly. But now that that is cleared up you need to relax.

Lighten up honey oats.

Short-circuit evaluation or minimal evaluation denotes the semantics of some boolean operators in some programming languages in which the second argument is only executed or evaluated if the first argument does not suffice to determine the value of the expression: when the first argument of the AND function evaluates to false, the overall value must be false; and when the first argument of the OR function evaluates to true, the overall value must be true.

i would be kind of mad. because it would feel like ive been lied to, in the you didnt tell me the whole truth kind of way. like if instead she said that she used to be a man, or had been previously married, or something of that sort.

Well, at first i'd be a bit shocked as i have none of the above presently. :awe:

But hey, if i woke up & suddenly had a significant other & she turned out to be Rubycon, i think i'd be pretty okay with that. :sneaky:
