Good one.
I’m not sure about that translation, though. It wasn’t just “get out of here”. It was “go up” as I recall.
In verse 11 Elijah had just gone up in a whirlwind of fire and the juvenile delinquents were saying Elisha should “go up” too. They were mocking God as much as Elisha.
Can I make fun of bald women and men with big breasts?
What about calling a woman “bald”?
“Show us your heads!”
And don’t call them ‘man’. Ya never know!
follicle challenged, right?
I don’t understand why anybody would call out someone’s baldness. I’ve never done it.
I have a full head of gray hair, but I also had a bald girlfriend (the love of my life) who told me she had breast cancer just before we agreed to meet.
We had a wonderful relationship and I loved her so deeply, but her cancer metastasized almost three years after we were together, and I took care of her at home and in hospice until the morning I woke up to find that she passed.
She was embarrassed about being bald from chemo and wore a wig in public, until she stopped and just wore a knitted cap when we went shopping.
Sorry to ramble. I still miss her every single day even though she passed almost ten years ago.
But my point is that never once did I make comments or jokes about her baldness.
And I’ve never made any comment about any man’s baldness. Anyone who makes such comments or jokes about it is a total d*ouch bag
My boss calls me baldy. But I’m not bald. He is. I tell him he’s projecting....I had an opportunity to get him though..he talked how he used bril cream back in the day. I wanted to retort “and now its turtle wax” but I wanted to keep my job...
This is actually a good thing. The more they do this stuff, the more unworkable their woke mentality becomes.
Ooooh, that's gender hate!!!!!!!
Your view is completely correct - but that type of realism is forbidden, now.
Bald headed Lena
Has anybody seen her?
Cute as she can be
She got a cue ball head
That’s hard as lead
But she’s all right with me

#5 Insulting a man for being bald . . . equivalent to commenting on the size of a woman’s breasts
I don’t see the connection.

If you have 2 men next to each other and they bend over at the same time so you see the top of their heads then you can see the connection.... : )
