THAT BRINGS OUT THE RAW PASSIONS AND CREATES INTERESTING DISCOURSE
*red color characterization in MtG*
ugh, no, don't you treat that as an intrinsically male trait
quite a large men are better than that and can put something else as a higher priority than their ego or prestige
it's just that competitiveness is (stupidly) expected of men by society at large
and it's not a good thing either; people ought to be more cooperative than ruthlessly competitive
the ruthlessly competitive types are people i call "assholes"
But why don't you tell them that?
Pretty much.
The irony is, I get finding Sarkeesian irritating. Her conclusions are shallow, her theoretical foundations are entry-level, and her whole method of attack focuses on the symptoms of a cultural problem in a way that the sort of people who would be persuaded (or need to be persuaded) on the issue will find alienating and those in the know already understand. She offers some solutions and alternatives, but her main focus is listing and describing examples of problems, many removed from context, whether mitigating or damning, which means that with the exception of converts, hate-fans and the intensely curious, a lot of people will miss the important part of her argument.
But most of her critics dislike her for much less sensible reasons, and many are just...
...actually it was probably called China Gate

* target one person's argument: you might look like you have a bone to pick with that person or seem desperate
* target the general form of that argument: you get to express your exasperation with the existence of the disagreement itself, which is a thing that more people are willing to agree with
if your objective is to counter that person's argument, then the latter seems like a more effective option
A few of his historical incarnations include; the Prophet Samuel, Plato, Merlin to King Arthur, Roger Bacon, Francis Bacon, Christopher Columbus, Saint Alban, Saint Joseph - father to Jesus, Prince Rakoczy (Rákóczi), and Leonardo Di Vinci. He was a powerful healer and High Priest in Atlantis. It was there that he first introduced the Sacred Violet Flame of Transmutation as a gift to humanity. His many lives have common themes of magic, alchemy, mystery, brilliance, transformation and spiritual devotion. All took place during pivotal times of history where he was instrumental in bring forth expansion and higher evolution of humanity.
He currently lives in both the Higher Realms; as the Lord of the Seventh Ray, the Violet Ray of freedom, alchemy, justice, mercy and transmutation, and in earthly dimension; by physically appearing from time to time, and through his direct influence and instruction to people he has selected to be his "assistants". Soon Saint Germain will reign as the leader of the Golden Age, the Age of Aquarius, when our planet Earth ascends into the 5th dimension. The New Frequencies for Ascension flooded the earth in December 2012. There will now be a "deconstruction/reconstruction" period of approximately 25 years before the Golden Age is fully manifest, however, many people will live in the new state of consciousness much sooner.

1. come up with a pun. any pun.
2. try to think of a way to use that pun in some meaningful manner. a good lot of the time, this will turn out to be insulting, simply by accident.
3. take that punny insult and make a one-liner out of it.
note that "wanting to insult someone" is NOT part of the initial premise in this process
it is merely a side effect
2. well, "bing" is a search engine, but certainly not the most prominent one...but it'd like to be.
3. so let's observe that Bing is not king.
"Yeah, Bing would like to be, but sure as hell ain't, king."
Bonus points are awarded if you find another formulation for the same pun!
Let's say that Bing tries to do something involving supporting civil rights but then does it badly.
"Bing would like to be, but sure as hell ain't, King."
Congratulations! Now you've insulted one thing and made uncomfortable jokes about something else, all without meaning to, simply by indulging your creativity!
2. "crook" doesn't have too many interesting ways of working with it. it's got one stable meaning ("criminal") and not much else. Maybe "Vote for the crook; it's important." "Nook" also is hard to work with but definitely is a notable e-reader trademark. Also the phrase "nooks and crannies", but I don't think we're going to use---waaaaaaait...both "crooks" and "nannies" are real words! That's just gold! But the problem is I already came up with something involving insulting e-readers.
3. "Actually, the correct spelling of 'Nook' is 'Crook' since it just steals your money."
Unfortunately, there's no fun zinger that can be made from "crooks and nannies". I guess one could take the perspective of a mischievous child and complain that "crooks and nannies always lie in wait in nooks and crannies", but that's about it.
HOW APPROPRIATE
...okay i got nothing
by dimension-switching i mean transferring/associating a meaning into another meaning

Just like I recognize one of GC's characters as "Guy" and another one as "Cato".

the bug colony would have been a nod to ijbm and btl (beetle); thankfully this never came to anything
this + the trash was to be the first area, but Zesty never escaped
