    I was going through my old posts (no comment) and I came across this quote from Randomex in this thread

    http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/ever-seen-a-forest-animal-die-of-old-age

    which basically went

    “You interpreted Writersoul’s statement as though it had been written with a precision of language not expected (of a seminary girl) in an online forum post, and proclaimed Joseph’s question “all the more baseless” on the basis of your interpretation (perhaps facetiously).”

    Randomex happened to be correct, BUT-

    that (of a seminary girl) rubbed me a bit the wrong way.

    My brain hasn’t completely left me, it’s only being a bit brainwashed, is all, I promise….

    Let all sem girls join together in their quest not to be stereotyped and underestimated!

    What do y’all think?

    I’m with ya!

    I also think it’s funny when people like to stereotype everything but change it constantly. Like the 1 year old who doesn’t speak, “because he has so many older siblings to speak for him” and the other one year old who speaks so well because, “he has so many older siblings to learn from”

    Why can’t someone’s poor skills be attributed to their learning abilities? Why can’t someone’s high level thinking be attributed to their learning abilities? Why can’t someone’s obnoxious behavior be attributed to his intrinsically negative personality? Some people just seem to enjoy the “blame game” – it’s the chareidi school system, it’s the tri-state attitude, it’s the OOT ignorance.

    Feh!

    You didn’t quote my response there:

    “You then claim that a seminary girl in an online forum does not write with this level of a precision of language. Even if were to agree with that (which I certainly don’t)…”
