I can't whistle, either. I'm straight, though. At least, I think I am. I really like boobs and dislike penises.
I can't sing. In my head I sound awesome, but apparently I sound like a robot being strangled by a cat that is also being strangled by a gorilla, who's poorly humming a tune.
I suck at being a guy. I'm not into the "I'm gonna brag so I can be an alpha male" shit. That whole guy competition with bragging and, I dunno...flexing or whatever. The only masculine things I do is grow a beard and watch sports. I couldn't tell you about some car's dual carb shaft overhead flux capacitors, or some gun's caliber, or anything to do with capturing or killing animals.
I don't 'get' philosophy I've had several philosophy classes at UNH, but no one has really ever given me a reason to accept why philosophers should be given as much merit as they have. Like, when that user Statler Waldorf or whatever his name was tried arguing that atheism, by the definition given by the encyclopedia of philosophy, was only strong atheism, and that weak/agnostic atheism wasn't actually atheism at all. Why should that definition carry more weight than mine? Why should I defer to it?
I mean, we're not talking about something that can be tested for correctness or one's aptitude, like passing a bar exam or getting a medical license. AFAIK, there's no philosophy license board. It's just people spouting ideas. So I fail to see why I should consider any of it expert testimony or evidence or whatever.
