Christmas Shopping Advice

Published by

Aaron Clarey is a great guy with a wonderful sense of humor who always promotes my blog on his own very popular website. I want to try to return the favor, at least to a degree, and post this very funny video Aaron made with great Christmas shopping advice.

The only question I have for Aaron is what is the brand of the cigar he holds in the video. I love big cigars (in the literal sense, you dirty-minded readers), so I’m always interested in which brands people prefer.

P.S. The video is supposed to be funny, so let’s breathe deep and dust off our sense of humor.

P.P.S. Yes, Aaron’s political beliefs are very different from mine. But if he manages to get over that and promote my blog heavily, then I can rise to the occasion, as well.

This guy is a prick. I don’t understand how can you promote his website, claiming that you are a feminist. His belittles women in almost every post, like they have very limited intellectual ability. And his followers? God help us.

  Unlike you, Aaron never addressed me in such disrespectful, annoying and snarky tone. You are trying to belittle me and my politics for absolutely no reason but that you don’t like a link I posted on my own blog. In the meanwhile, the person you think is so much worse than you always addresses me and my ideas with the utmost respect.
  
  Just something to think about.

    “Aaron never addressed me in such disrespectful, annoying and snarky tone.”
    
    But he did, a thousand times. He addresses you and me like that on his blog. I’m not trying to belittle you; my reply started with the phrase “I don’t understand”.
    
    And I know it’s your blog, and you can write here whatever you want. As your reader I’m only asking you about your motivation, beyond the fact that he was always so nice to you.

      I can only repeat that Aaron never condescended to me the way you do with your “you claim to be a feminist.” Maybe before judging others, you might analyze what makes you feel it’s ok to address specific women in a condescending, aggressive way for absolutely no reason. It’s easy to like the concept of women. What is harder is to learn to treat actual women with respect.
      
      You have already addressed 2 quite offensive comments to me. I suspect you don’t even realize how insulting they are and why I’m offended.

      “Your motivation beyond the fact he was always so nice to you” – I’m yet to meet a single male chauvinist pig who’d dare insult me in this egregious and completely unprovoked way.
      
      And this is a person who wants to police my feminism. Priceless.

No, I don’t realize why you find my comments so offensive. Maybe because I dared to ask inconvenient question?

Plus I’ve never claimed to be a feminist, in contrast to you.

  And now you are casting doubt not only on my politics but on my basic honesty. How hugely respectful of you.
  
  In just three comments you communicated that:
  
  1. Women are deceitful,
  2. Women are overly emotional,
  3. Women are incapable of holding political beliefs,
  4. Women cannot be trusted,
  5. Women are eager to do anything to be treated nicely by random strangers,
  6. Women are manipulative.
  
  I’m sure you can teach us all a leson or two about how to be sexist.

    Unfortunately you proved all those points by advertising this guy. I mainly come to this blog because I respect you for your views on politics and gender. And you direct me to a blog that is written by a (in your words) “male chauvinist pig”. I regret every minute of my life that I spent of his blog.
    
    So on one hand you trumpet around your the importance of gender equality, and on the other hand you are willing to abandon your integrity because a guy was nice to you on a couple occasions and you shove his crap down your readers throats.
    
    Yes, it’s you who proves all the 6 points. And don’t bother to answer. I will not be reading your blog ever again…

      The person I referred to as a chauvinist pig is not Aaron.

This guy in the video is a bit of an ape, but I’m fine with that. In another video he seems to think women are hysterics. I think this means his radar is on for hysterical women and only hysterical women. He will probably end up marrying one — and then complaining about it. What one sees is often what one gets.
