What get me are the people who insist on tolerance at all costs, but are completely intolerant of any person who has a thought that is different from theirs, and then go on to tell us that we have to think their way because it's the "better" way: Hardly the definition of tolerance. That's being intolerant of someone for how they think, not where they landed in society or what they do.
We all have the right to think and speak for ourselves, and if someone can't tolerate that, that's their problem, not mine, at least until they attempt to take away my constitutional right to be myself.

I don't believe in changing someone for either my own purposes or for "the better good"; I believe in accepting them for who they are or avoiding them for who they are. I decide who I like or dislike, and why.
And now for something back on topic:
If she insists I fight for her, she may end up walking home: It would certainly be the last time she ever sees me, because she would not be anywhere near my ideal lady. In fact, I wouldn't even consider her to be a lady, because a lady will respect her man's wish to not fight as much as a man should be willing to fight for her when, and only when, it is absolutely necessary. I will fight for her, but only as a last resort.
Making certain that she is safe and unharmed is my real concern, and if I can also get out unscathed, all the better.

See that and raise with discussing-the-finer-points-of-Terminator-operating-systems geeky! If you're up for it I'd be game to argue 800-series versus T-X...Spiffy said:Oh, I forgot.
In addition to being willing to argue with me, he needs to be geeky.
Really geeky.
Willing to discuss things like (for example) shifting timelines in Terminator universe geeky.

She sure does! She's known every time the more she disliked a girl, the quicker the relationship ended.Widebrim said:That says it all. Mama knows best!

I love geeks. So far all my exes have been Trekkies.Darhling said:I agree on the geeky part! I remember one guy being VERY angry because I didn't find 'a universe without an end' mindboggling and confusing but that I understood it (real universe here, not the terminator one lol). He said no-one could understand that [huh] . So yes, someone who can be über geeky is cool in my book. And is open to play hackeysack at night under a streetlight is good too lol
