Good luck. Seriously.

@Peregrine  
You’re a tough girl. I have no doubt you’ll be fine. Just keep up with youe meds if you’ve been prescribed any.

I really don’t like WatchMojo.com.

@Kirb  
I like disliking them

@Kirb  
why? (no idea what that site is)

@OptimusPrimevil  
It’s a site (more so a youtube channel) that mostly lists multiple “top tens”, they cover a wide range of topics on just about anything.  
While I find their videos interesting, a lot of critism comes from the fact that their lists suck because of non-inclusion of certain things that should be mentioned or belong on the list, among other things.

@VNagato  
ah!
 
watching if for myself won’t give the exact reason why kirb doesn’t like it so i had to ask.

@OptimusPrimevil  
Understandable, I personally enjoy watching their videos, mostly because they cover topics I have no real knowledge on are interesting in a sense.  
Though a lot of people complain more so on lists like “top ten anime” or something, something I tend to stay away from.

@VNagato  
personally i don’t agree with ‘top ten best ___ ever’ especially since ‘ever’ means the list will somehow be still relevant 20-10-5 or even a year after it’s made.

@OptimusPrimevil  
I feel the same in regards to the “Things That You Missed.” Not might have, not may have, you just straight up missed them. As if, they understand these details more than you do and treat you like an imbecile in the title.

@Ore-O  
most of them are very, very obvious too.
 
though i think that was more for the casuals/new to the property type of article.

Why does this site keep logging me out?

@HighRollerHydra  
Did you check the “Remember me” box?

@VNagato  
I did.
 
And it still logged me out whenever I clicked a Derpibooru link in the history box.

@HighRollerHydra  
It might have to do with your browser and/or cookies

@VNagato  
Why do we call them “cookies”, anyway?

@HighRollerHydra  
Have no idea, and I don’t think there’s an explicit reason for it, there are theories though

A friend back in Virginia told me that there’s a big controversy about transsexuals not being hired for jobs because of their transsexual status.
 
While I definitely think the people hiring are homophobic pricks, I think there’s a really easy way of dealing with this: simply don’t tell them that you’re transsexual.
 
I mean, don’t lie to them if they ask, but I see no reason why one would walk into a job and be like “Hi I’m transsexual!” Unless the job you’re being hired for is a webcam stripper or something where that would actually matter, why even bring it up?

@Kirb  
Like the whole “don’t ask, don’t tell” deal?

@Kirb  
To be honest I don’t see why people take “pride” in something like gay pride or being trans. You’re proud that you believe you belong in a gender group you weren’t born with? Isn’t that more upsetting than prideful? I’m not trying to be rude, but it doesn’t make sense to me. Why do people have to say they’re trans? Isn’t the whole point of being trans that you believe you aren’t your assigned gender? If you really believe you’re a girl but born a guy or vice versa, why do you have to constantly spout that you are trans? That’s just a reminder of something you didn’t agree with.
 
Anyway… I think it might also be a thing where people can kind of tell if you are or aren’t?

@VNagato  
Considering that gender-swapping surgery isn’t 100% perfect, that might be the reason.

@VNagato  
They take pride in it because Trans and gays and that have been treated horribly for ages, and are taking pride that even through the abuse, they are proud of who they are.
 
 
@Kirb  
Maybe it because they look trans?

@HighRollerHydra  
Sort of. I just don’t see why that kind of information would be necessary in registering for a job. I mean when I register for a job I don’t immediately go in and say “Hi, I’m a straight cisgender white male!” Why? Because that usually has nothing to do with my skills, experience, or how qualified I am for the job.
 
Let me just clarify that yes, I think it’s incredibly closed-minded to not hire someone because they’re transsexual. Those people should probably be brought to court about it.
 
@VNagato  
I guess? I mean I know the surgery hasn’t been perfected yet but that’s still no need to boast about it when applying for a job. Again, unless being transsexual will in any way interfere with your job or is brought up during the registration process, there shouldn’t be any reason to bring it up.
 
@ice1517  
How exactly does one look trans, out of curiosity?

@Kirb  
I think it has to do with the face.

@ice1517  
Oh, so a trans woman will have a more manlike jaw or something?
