Conan The Barbarian Acquires Biology Degree So He Can Know Whose Lamentations He's Hearing

CIMMERIA—Local adventurer and slayer Conan the Barbarian has decided to temporarily lay aside the rich juices of red meat, the stinging wine on his palate, and the mad exultation of battle to pursue an advanced degree in biology at a local university. According to sources, his lack of expertise in biology made it difficult for him to know whose lamentations he was hearing.

"This is what is best in life," said Conan to reporters. "To crush my enemies, see them driven before me, and to hear the lamentation of their... uh... crap. Women? Maybe? I dunno. I'm not a biologist. I need to look into this."

Conan will attend Snowhawk University for the next six years where he will learn everything there is to know about the feminine creatures who cry and lament over their slain warriors after Conan defeats them.

Several activists from the University have condemned the admission of the new student due to his politically incorrect—some would say savage—views, and also due to the fact that he keeps slaying people. "Conan has no place at our university," lamented an angry professor moments before being hewn in two by Conan's Atlantean Sword.

Unfortunately upon graduation, Conan found he will have to go back to school for gender studies to unlearn everything he learned in biology.

“Believe all women” has become “I don’t know what a woman is”.

Loved that last line/”unlearn” moneyshot.

I have a Leftist friend (yes, it’s possible) who behaves exactly like this. She believes I’m not allowed to offer an opinion on any subject in which I don’t have a PhD. Of course, with her PhD in Fine Arts, she’s permitted to comment on anything, and does...ad nauseam.

Modern Hollywood movie battles must show women fighting instead of men. The men can still fight, but only if they lose. But mostly they must run away and cry when the fighting is over. Conan today would get his ass kicked by a 17 year old 90 pound girl.

When Ketanji Jackson said she didn’t know what a woman is because she’s not a biologist, she admitted that biology determines sex.

Then she's not a friend. Friends respect and weigh each other's opinions, as part of general respect.

Crap, is Joss Whedon producing a Conan remake?

Yes, unfortunately it's getting to that point. She's become so rabid that she treats any opinion offered which is different from hers as a personal attack. As a result, she's been passively losing and actively terminating long term relationships. Our 50-year friendship may be next. Sad, really.

It’s easy being a vampire slayer when they just disappear into dust when you hit them with a sharp stick.

Tell her that the truth doesn’t require a formal education. A fancily scrawled parchment from a money-sucking university doesn’t make someone an expert at anything. Experience does.

Change your screen name to "twisted".

You refer to her as your friend, she refers to you as her bitch, and I agree with her {but that doesn't make her my friend}.

BTW, no, it is not possible.

Did think abour distancing yourself from her and, IF if it comes up, tell her you want to take a break and stay out of her way rather than aggravate yourself by holding back your opinions or feelings?

“Our long friendship is too valuable to destroy by constantly stiffeling my feelings about having my opinions ignored and disrespected. I would rather put it on ‘pause’ until this political turmoil we are being forced to live through will, with the grace of God, go way. When it does we will be able to rekindle our friendship”

There is still something to the “Gestalt Prayer” by Fritz Perls:

I do my thing and you do your thing
I am not in this world to
live up to your expectations,
and you are not in this world to
live up to mine.
You are you
and I am I
and if by chance we find each other,
it’s beautiful.
Fritz Perls

I do my thing and you do your thing
I am not in this world to
live up to your expectations,
and you are not in this world to
live up to mine.
You are you
and I am I
and if by chance we find each other,
it’s beautiful...

If not, it can’t be helped

sorry about the duplicate.
I had forgotten to complete it with the last line.

Peace,
