Gender Roles=COMMUNISM
[15:43] <Tailon> Wasn't there a study that showed using gendered words legitimately seemed to increase rigid gender roles and stuff in the societies that use them
[15:43] <@KoL> It exists as a singular entity
[15:43] <Tailon> I might be misremembering
[15:43] <Shiny> no wonder China is communist
[15:43] <@KoL> No-one would have authorized that
[15:43] <Shiny> because there's no he/she, everyone uses the same pronouns
[15:43] <Shiny> (well, not written, but when speaking)
[15:44] <Aurora-kun> The "People's Republic" of China
[15:44] <Aurora-kun> NOT
And a Little while Later~
[15:48] <@KoL> How did we go from school crushes to this?
[15:48] <Shiny> is sexism in spanish-speaking countries worse than in, say, America?
[15:49] <Dwayna> Mary-Anne made a friend at the park so i was just like 'fuck it' and gave her mother my phone number
[15:49] <Aurora-kun> KoL: This is Charms~ anything's possible
[15:49] <Tailon> Gonna go with yeah
[15:49] <Shiny> crushes > school > school system > penmanship > gendered pronouns
[15:49] <Shiny> I was keeping track
[15:49] <Shiny>
[15:49] <Aurora-kun> XD that's TOTALLY a normal progression
[15:49] <@KoL> Well, you know what, if we're going to use that progression

[15:52] <Cloveria> Hai Jestyn
[15:52] <Shiny> I fucking hate my life
[15:52] <Shiny> never did I ever expect to hear that song play on Pokecharms
[15:53] <Shiny> why
[15:53] <Jestyn> Stop swearing
[15:53] <@KoL> You should know better than that
[15:53] <Shiny> why did this happen
[15:53] <@KoL> I'm here
[15:53] <Dwayna> it's KoL
[15:53] <Dwayna> what did you expect Lyn
[15:53] <@KoL> Swearing isn't against the rules
[15:53] <Dwayna> sunshine and rainbows
[15:53] <Shiny> I didn't expect him to KNOW THAT SONG
[15:53] <Shiny> also why is this "hong kong 97 music"
[15:53] <@KoL> Proves you didn't read them too Jestyn
[15:53] <Shiny> that's not even in Cantonese
[15:53] <@KoL> Well, once upon a time there was a game called Hong Kong 97
[15:53] <Aurora-kun> Shiny: NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE MASTER TROLL, KoL
[15:53] <Tailon> It's the background music to a horrible old game
[15:53] <@KoL> That's the music from it
[15:54] <Shiny> fair enough
[15:54] <Tailon> What is the actual song about and why do you hate it so

[15:54] <Shiny> I'll give you the exact English lyrics
[15:54] <Aurora-kun> oh god, here it comes
[15:55] <Tailon> Is it a propaganda song
[15:55] <Aurora-kun> evidently I should've waited to log this XD
[15:55] <Aurora-kun> somebody's gonna have to do it later~
[15:55] <Dwayna> you can edit the post
[15:55] <Shiny> "I love Beijing Tiananmen/The sun rises above Tiananmen/Great Leader Chairman Mao/Leads us all forward"
[15:55] <Shiny> that's the whole song
[15:55] <Tailon> Knew it
[15:55] <Aurora-kun> XD wait really?
[15:55] <Cloveria> Yep
[15:55] <Shiny> you only hear "I love Beijing Tiananmen"
[15:55] <Shiny> yes
[15:55] <Tailon> Also, irony
[15:55] <Shiny> 100%
[15:55] <Shiny> I had to sing this at Karaoke parties all the time when i was younger and I had no idea what it meant
[15:55] <Shiny> :/
[15:55] <Tailon> Because the game is (supposedly) about fighting communists
[15:56] <Aurora-kun> dear god, WHY
[15:56] <Aurora-kun> XD'
[15:56] <Shiny> because the Chinese LOVE their karaoke parties
[15:56] <@KoL> I can see why
[15:56] <Aurora-kun> PROPAGANDA KARAOKE
[15:56] <Aurora-kun> actually has a nice ring to it
[15:56] <Shiny> you honestly don't understand
[15:57] <Shiny> the first words my mom learned how to write in Chinese were "Love live Chairman Mao"
[15:57] <Shiny> and had no idea what the fuck that meant
[15:57] <Shiny> but hey, it's the Chinese school system!
[15:57] <Tailon> Yeah, China is a propaganda machine of the highest order
[15:57] <Cloveria> .......
[15:57] <Shiny> nah, that's North Korea
[15:57] <Shiny>
[15:58] <@KoL> Well, I am now very glad I have found a new way to torment you
[15:58] <Aurora-kun> KoL WHY XD
[15:58] <@KoL> Because I can

[15:59] <Shiny> [17:58] <Shiny> the new Chairman of China is actually working on removing a lot of the corruption, thank goodness
[15:59] <Shiny> dunno if you guys saw that
[15:59] <Dwayna> <@KoL> Well, I am now very glad I have found a new way to torment you [15:58] <Aurora-kun> KoL WHY XD [15:58] <@KoL> Because I can [15:58] <Dwayna> you said it yourself, he is the master troll
[15:59] <Shiny> danke XD

[16:00] <Dwayna> You're welcome XD
[16:00] <Shiny> but yeah, hearing stories about China back when my parents were kids helped me appreciate living in America that much more
[16:00] <@KoL> Shiny, we just had a discussion about school crushes where I explained that I gave mine a wedgie hard enough to make her want to kill me
[16:00] <@KoL> I'd like to think that alone should be proof not to underestimate my trolling prowess
[16:00] <Shiny> KoL that was like at the start of the previous hour :/
[16:00] <Aurora-kun> KoL is the only one here who's troll enough to wedgie a girl
[16:01] * Shiny pants'd one of her high school crushes in senior year
[16:01] <Dwayna> my first crush made me want to impress him, so he was like 'eating paper is cool' so i ate paper ='D
[16:01] <@KoL> Of course you did Shiny
[16:01] <@KoL> You wanted what was underneath
[16:01] <Shiny> my orchestra director walked by and saw and he casually walked away
[16:01] <Shiny> nah, he had two shorts on, and I knew that XD
[16:01] <Aurora-kun> KoL XD
[16:01] <Dwayna> Dear lord XD;
[16:01] <Aurora-kun> oh god
[16:01] <Cloveria> XD

[16:03] <Shiny> god dammit KoL now that's stuck in my head
[16:03] <Shiny> I fucking hate you
[16:03] <@KoL> You are no match for my evil
