Re: Odd Reincarnation

Does anyone else find this topic as weird as I do? I swear, the off-season discussion goes downhill so fast....

I guess to answer the quesion of this thread, is "I don't really care, nor wanna think about it" an option?

I must agree that I chose a rather pointless subject, but if you DID have the chance ^^...

Re: Odd Reincarnation

I have to find that Dilbert... Dogbert tells everyone to image being a woman, and Wally goes off on this thing about "People accept me. Strangers hold the door open for me..."

But, I don't know. Advantages to both.

Re: Odd Reincarnation

Wierd thread, but interesting question.

I've always been a tomboy. I enjoy being around guys WAY more than girls (they drive me nuts with concern over superficial things). But at the same time, I guess if I was reincarnated I would want to come back as a slightly taller (I'm shorter than I'd like to be) girl identical to how I am now. I guess I enjoy the challenge of breaking the stereotype, and it makes me different.

I choose to come back as a female.

WEIRDEST THREAD EVER.

As for me, I'd be reincarnated as a guy. Since I'm a geek this go around, I'll be a jock next time. Nah, just kidding Dean.

Re: Odd Reincarnation

psssh we have a list too...

here are some highlights

Phone conversations are conversations, not a series of grunts.
We don't feel compelled to do stupid things to "prove" ourselves.
If our rears are a factor in a job interview, We've got a juicy lawsuit.
Our last name is whatever we want it to be.
We can kill your own food, and fix it to taste like food.
We can be showered and ready in 10 minutes, but why bother? He'll be late.
We have fewer heart attacks because we can cry.
We get a zit, we have makeup.
Nobody thinks a thing of it if we decide not to work.
We live longer.
If another guy shows up at the party in the same outfit, it's GUARANTEED we'll become lifelong buddies.
If something mechanical doesn't work, we can fix it, or ask to get it fixed without loss of sexual identity.
We get out of speeding tickets by crying
We don't worry about losing our hair
We can give "the look" that will make any man want to cower in the corner
Better tips
You can quickly end any fight by crying.
You're allowed to be afraid of spiders and other creepy crawlies.

Re: Odd Reincarnation

My dear blacknight, you surely jest! I tend to outwit many men at campsites...

No stereotypes apparent from the good ones mentioned above.

Really, at least women can think with more than their genitals.

Re: Odd Reincarnation

Here's one point where I agree.
So I like to consider myself not terribly highmaintenance. I.e., I can go to the bathroom by myself, spend a normal person's amount of time there, and leave.

For some reason, my friends always follow me...
