Is this what people actually think "getting rekt" looks like? That video hurt to watch.

Yeah she discredited herself by taking immature shots at him, then nervously changing her story a bunch of times. But Starkey showed absolutely no class either. Pointing in her face and calling her a public schoolgirl is no better than punching someone in the face after they call your mum fat.

They're both inept, insufferable people, so if I'm going to have to side with either of them I'll at least pick the one that's kinda cute.

I never cared who Laurie Penny was, then I saw an article she wrote about the time she got drunk at a party, followed a guy (who she was attracted to) home, got in his bed, and then got "raped." It's baffling how little women have to account for their actions.

She's displaying her attractiveness by saying she is annoyed by the attention of these guys. This signals two things to the reader:

1. She is attractive enough to get attention
2. She is so attractive, that being adored by average men is annoying to her(something that average women would love). In other words, she deserves better than these guys.

Why would a woman want to use messages to display attractiveness on a social network? If you can't figure that one out, I'd say you are a lost cause.

Laurie Penny is appointed Grand High Justicar of the UK by the Womyn's Rights Tribunal of Trans-Europe. She has total and absolute authority over all patriarkin (formerly 'men'), as their chaotic, unpredictable, and downright evil behaviour has been deemed deserving of extreme security measures. On the merest suggestion that you even know what the word 'rape' means, she can have you incinerated by an ion cannon in low orbit (specifically designed not to resemble a phallus, to even the slightest degree).

One day she catches you, hard at menial labour as is fit for dim-witted patriarkin, fondling a distinctly phallic piece of fruit you just retrieved from your lunchbox. For fear that you are attempting to spark a revolution against your female overseers by reminding your fellows that they have dicks, she has you sequestered in a small office for questioning. She enters, locks the door, and seats her glorious thick post-feminist ass on the wooden desk before you. After unbuttoning her jacket and reclining on her palms to get comfortable, she spreads her meaty, nyloned thighs in front of you, and places the heel of her knee-high boot on your seated leg. She tells you that you are to be summarily executed for your crimes - ripped to pieces by roid-raging trannies. That is, she says, unless you service her, over and over, for hours on end, until she feels you have paid your dues to society.

If you don't see how insulting someone because they are not part of a certain private-school-going elite isn't arrogant, I'm not sure how much further I can explain myself. As for the Britishness of it, you will NEVER find even the most arrogantly wealthy American insult someone because they are a public-school-going commoner - at least not in public. I mean that, to me, is basically arrogance incarnate, and it is based on a certain idea of socioeconomic propriety that is pretty much unique to Britain.
