    you couldn't really justify calling it a gingerbread man unless it had a lot of detail, perhaps a little too much detail

    as somebody who would call themselves a feminist (all decent men and women should call themselves feminists outta respect for those who fought for it... sorry, quoting ani again), i honestly don't care. well, yeah they should be called gingerbread men. yeah, actually i do care.

    this is a major issue, and should be brought to the attention of those in charge,

    We should have a petition. Once we get enough signatures, we can send it to pat the baker, he'll know what to do!

    I remember a funny story about feminism from CTYI, Legal Studies, Session 1, 2003: AJ wanted to see if ashling was a feminist so he touched her bum. The result (ouch) is shown in the not-so-clear photo which should be attached.:D (AJ is the one lying on the floor in agony)

    Feminism is silly. A gingerbread man is a gingerbread man is a gingerbrea...you get my drift. Well, okay normal feminsim isn't silly, like wantin a vote and rights etc, but the whole intense scary thing is...scary.

    floppy.


    obviously they're gingerbread men. cos obviously, ultrafeminism-wise, if they were gingerbread women, being sold nake to be eaten it's some form of pornography or sexploitation.

    it's like that **** with the 'chairperson' it's CHAIRMAN!! CHAIRMAN!!!!


    oh and btw, pat the bakers make bread.

    That's actually one of the least subtle innuendos I've heard from a CTYIer. The fact that the majority of them are just completely random and don't actually mean anything probably contributes to this. :rolleyes:

    In your endo

    I know that probably sounded totally immature but it was worth it. It brings memories of last year's CTYI flowing... (followed by a babble of nostalgic jibber u don't want 2 hear.)
