I think I hate ... ( 10 months ago by spidermanandsnape)

I think I hate sports because they are so pointless. Thats great, but no one can take away the image inside my head that I got from hiking up a mountain! I find that much more rewarding than putting a ball in a goal. Thats just me. I learned that nothing is final from bleach. No one ever dies! I mea, they can get their head cut of, or get a fatal wound, and then something brings them back. sigh, even Aizen

For some stupid reason any Intersex person like me is not aloud to compete in sports, and some cannot get married or adopt children
We are going to fight to change this i do not see why i could not compete in some race just because i am Intersex, i never chose to be born like this, yes i am proud of what i am but i believe its completly unfiar how all intersex people are treated as if they are shit on a stick no one cares how it makes us all feel!
Why do we have to suffer!!!!!

@vlogbrothers GWB ... ( 8 months ago by PaddyBoy987)

@vlogbrothers GWB put the mission accomplished banner on the aircraft carrier at the request of the crew... The crew's specific mission was accomplished and they were returning home... Please leave politics out of your videos... It creates a schism (great word) in Nerdfighteria that is very uncomfortable. I think having a unified Nerdfighteria will decrease world suck.

A concerned Republican Nerdfighter.

@PaddyBoy987 your opinions about the aircraft carrier are totally valid, but i disagree about the discussion of politics. what makes nerdfighteria great is our ability to discuss differing opinions without becoming offensive and instead recognizing the validity of the other side and understanding that everyone has a reason for thinking what they think. To me, unified doesn't mean we have to agree on everything. It means coming together and valuing our differences together.
Best wishes!

Honestly, John's explanation of why sports are what they are was very similar to religion. Just sayin'.
