Of course.

My opinion is that this is well-intentioned, but poorly executed. Not enough to merit a downvote, but I can't upvote it either. Clearly however, I am in the minority on this one.

But that's cool. Sharing our opinions (both positive and negative) on these videos is the raison d'etre of this site.

^Thanks, @ChaosEngine, for having an open and inquiring mind. I do appreciate it.

Now the question is -- does language shape our thinking? "What if" women were always called women in circumstances similar to when men are always called men? (Context, context, yes?)

I remember where I was the first time I called myself a "woman." It was forty years ago, and I remember everything about that moment. It felt weird as heck. A responsibility was being assumed by me, it felt like. It was my nineteenth birthday, and I was lounging poolside at a UCLA frat house in the middle of the day.

In traditional societies, there were rites of passage, weren't there? Often brutal, but still. A marking of the transition from childhood to adulthood. The closest thing I have to that in my conscious life is that moment I chose to call myself a woman for the first time.

Do you remember the first time you called yourself a man, assuming that mantle of responsibility?

I suspect it is different for men, because the word is used so much sooner for you guys. "Look at the little man!" when you are three years old. I never heard "look at the little woman." Still, that moment of truly being called a man -- or choosing that word for yourself -- does it resonate?

Thanks for taking this seriously, chaos.

And I still would be interested in your wife's take on this. She married well, I can tell. You rock.

Well the patio and poolside are nice and clean but something tells me the pool cleaner is gonna be pissed...

It's not the dissenting opinion that leads to insults.

It's the utter suspension of deductive logic when presented with objective, tangible facts.

"Running across a watery surface can be dangerous, get it QM?

You see:
              -Water is often wet.
              -Wetted surfaces provide less friction.
              -Lower friction tends to convert potential energy into kinetic.
              -When potential energy is converted quickly, i.e. at high velocity, into kinentic,
               lots of Force is generated.
              -When that force is met by an equal and opposite force, high entropy
               is generally achieved


Therefore:
              - since the bones in your skull are usually less resilient, able to absorb energy,               than the opposing force of a ceramic or concrete poolside
              - the greatly increased energy of your brain matter will likely disperse itself               across a larger area of space.

You see how that chain of events could result in needless suffering?"

QM - "Well you see, what you leftist fools fail to wake up to is the that fact that poolside "safety" rules are simply more big gov'ment regulation disguised as "social justice".
All heaped on top of the hard-working American job creators by those dimwit Marxist Taxocrats.

..And another thing, about Obama.."

blah blah blah..

Ah, the poolside Garburator. No luxury home is complete without one!

Great video despite having been caught red-handed in a case of soundtrack abuse. Rage Against the Machine? "There be no shelter here?" For fucking poolside tricks?

Definitely not a fail. He didn't hit the poolside. He had jumped clear of the bike well before then. The reason the bike flips so dramatically is because it is unladen.

^My guess is that he was aiming for the pool and not the poolside.

Still, hard to call it a success, but perhaps we can say he accomplished his goal?!
