There was this gal who...

[NecroCommie]

... said it is part of the western culture to identify masculine features as symbols of freedom. Your thoughts? I think it sounds kinda accurate and depressing at the same time.

That did help me understand why I like boyish girls though. :wub:

[Pirate turtle the 11th]

You should burn down her house.

... said it is part of the western culture to identify masculine features as symbols of freedom. Your thoughts?

What on Earth could such a statement possibly mean?

What is it about some people that makes them state grammatically correct but otherwise meaningless bollocks?

[mykittyhasaboner]

You should burn down her house.
That's a pretty masculine thing to do.

[Panda Tse Tung]

That's a pretty masculine thing to do.
Exactly! That makes it freedom!

[gorillafuck]

Burning down houses is the true path to freedom!

[scarletghoul]

What a great idea
let us now form new maoist organisation with new guiding thought of burn down houses theory

[Le Libérer]

My question is , "Who uses the word gal?" Sounds like my grandfather describing the elderly women with poofy blue hair that congregate around him at the dining table at the elderly condo community.

[Bandito]

What about a dove?
It represents freedom, and it is still far from masculine.

[ÑóẊîöʼn]

I thought the dove represented peace?

[Jazzratt]

Yeah, doves are peace. Eagles are freedom. We're well into birds [insert joke about how that means the opposite of the original statement ("birds" being slang for "women" and all). hur hur].

[S.O.I]

the statue of liberty isnt very masculine...? thats the first symbol of freedom that came to my head

[Bandito]

Dove with a branch in her beak represents peace.


Releasing doves or pidgeons represent freedom, at least where i come from (where statues of liberty and american eagles don't represent freedom).

This is the symbol of ultimate freedom:

[NecroCommie]

Her point was more like stating that physical strength and pride, and individualism in general is often linked to men, rather than women. They are also considered prerequisites of "freedom"... What ever that "freedom" is... :confused:

Thine heretic blasphemies shallt not hinder the triumph of our immortal God Emperor! Away thee cursed mutant, and thine vile xeno allies. The hammer of the emperor lobbeth thine rotting corpses into the unknown depths of the warp!!!

Fool is the one who shallt give up to the mutants, for his soul shallt never witness the gleaming light of our emperor. Thou can throw countless mutated minions upon our battle lines, yet for every martyred guardsman, million more stand eager to replace him! Be cast down thee mutant! Move not thine arms and legs! Speaketh not thine blasphemies! Fire not thine tainted weapons.

Be maimed! Be burneth! Be shot evil creature! For in Medusa V the loyal servants of our emperor spake sacred words of vengeange! Billions of traitor corpses now cover the crust of our dear planet, for that is the prise of heresy...

I thought Eagles were the symbol of star spangled, FOX news right wing wankerism.

I am more a Slaanesh kind of guy myself.

Slaanesh really is the least interesting of the chaos gods, really. All that unlimited decadence and hedonistic carnality just doesn't grab me so much as the aspects of the other gods. For example Grandfather Nurgle, my favourite of the gods, is interesting because he goes a lot deeper than the obvious (and whilst plagues, afflictions, infections and infestations are awesome...) because he represents both the despair of the ill and the resigned humour of the doomed; this is why nurglings are described as "frolicking" and The Great Unclean One will probably make a few bitingly sarcastic remarks before killing you stone dead.

Don't get me wrong I think Slaanesh is pretty fucking cool but all the others (including ones such as Malal and the rest of that lot which GW wrote out because they're bastards.) ar just so much moire awesome.

[Pirate turtle the 11th]

That is exactly what grabbed me lol. Nurgle is probably my secound favorite of the chaos gods, as he dose have a very intersting personality. I was never a big chaos player though. I always had the idea of makeing a smallish chaos army but seeing as i can no longer have Deamons or beastmen in my mortal army that killed it for me.

Sorry, didn't mean to Hijack the thread.

[Killfacer]

Nurgle is my favourite. Anyone who looks like this has my vote:

Thats my nan.

[ls]

You might get what youre after
Cool babies
Strange but not a stranger
Im an ordinary guy
Burning down the house

Hold tight wait till the partys over
Hold tight were in for nasty weather
There has got to be a way
Burning down the house

Heres your ticket pack your bag: time for jumpin overboard
The transportation is here
Close enough but not too far, maybe you know where you are
Fightin fire with fire

All wet
Hey you might need a raincoat
Shakedown
Dreams walking in broad daylight
Three hun-dred six-ty five de-grees
Burning down the house

It was once upon a place sometimes I listen to myself
Gonna come in first place
People on their way to work baby what did you except
Gonna burst into flame

My house
Sout of the ordinary
Thats might
Dont want to hurt nobody
Some things sure can sweep me off my feet
Burning down the house

No visible means of support and you have not seen nuthin yet
Everythings stuck together
I dont know what you expect starring into the tv set
Fighting fire with fire

[Primus_Raven]

I wish I had the money to put one of these on the table:

None other than. I love the forgeworld models but I've never had the cash for that kind of shit.

[Angry Young Man]

Jazzratt, did you just say that eagles symbolise freedom?

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/ad/Nazi_eagle_swastika.png
But yea, if we do away with the whole philosophical debate about what freedom is, then let's do a brainstorm...

The statue of liberty has a nice rack for a phallic symbol.

I don't see anything macho about broken chains

The symbol for gay freedom is a rainbow.

Ok, a fist is kind of phallic.

Anyway, my main point was that eagles don't symbolise freedom. Where have they symbolised freedom

[Jazzratt]

Anyway, my main point was that eagles don't symbolise freedom. Where have they symbolised freedom

Mainly in america to be fair.

Chaos IS freedom, muthafucka. The ultimate freedom.

While you are wasting your time pleading supplicance in vain to your powerless corpse-emperor, the rage of Khorne gives me strength and might undreamed of, the pleasures of Slaanesh send me to new peaks of ecstasy, the knowledge of Tzeentch empowers me to enact true change, and the protection of Nurgle shields me from death.

Turn to the power of Chaos undivided, and your true potential will be realised. Stay with your Emperor, and you will become just like him - a rotting corpse!

NOT TO WORRY!

BECUASE I AM THE C'TAN STAR GOD OF THE NECRONS. My vast silent armies will cleanse the galaxies of life. The eye of terror will be purged and the name of Chaos forgotten in the vast silent realm of my dominion. We will rise from the tombs on long forgotten worlds and cursh all who oppose us.
