Thankfully, though, there’s a company out there brave enough to tackle the differences between girls and boys—more specifically, the difference between the way boys play Ouija and the way girls play Ouija. Because when men are pretending to contact the dead, they’re all like, “Is there a ghost here?” while women are all like, “Who in this room is jealous of me?” Am I right?
Stephanie Zvan is one of the hosts for the Minnesota Atheists' radio show and podcast, Atheists Talk. She serves on the board of Secular Woman. She speaks on science and skepticism in a number of venues, including science fiction and fantasy conventions.
Stephanie has been called a science blogger and a sex blogger, but if it means she has to choose just one thing to be or blog about, she's decided she's never going to grow up. In addition to science and sex and the science of sex, you'll find quite a bit of politics here, some economics, a regular short fiction feature, and the occasional bit of concentrated weird.
Oh, and arguments. She sometimes indulges in those as well. But I'm sure everything will be just fine. Nothing to worry about. Nothing at all.
Ok, the actual board is depressing, but the fucking post you linked to is great fun. Sounded exactly like one of my clients in Portland who hired me to manage some renovations on their house, with her (mostly) and her retired husband (occasionally) as the crew. She had a thing about the peptobismal paints – a not very nice thing…
Pink & purple. Wow. I always remember that episode of "Little House on the Prairie" when the blind girl asked what colour they painted the barn. Pink and purple. She was happy she couldn't see it.Yucky and cliche, a double threat.
I think you people need to examine your assumptions. You are assuming that the different style spirit contraptions are designed with the mortal user’s sensibilities in mind. It may well be that these different designs matter more to the ghostly spirit being contacted. You mortals are so self-centered.
Oh you have to be fucking kidding me…. You’re not kidding. Faith in humanity waning… waning…

Jason, that’s not humanity. That’s marketing.Pink princess woo. How can you not love it? Oh, wait….

What has pink done to deserve this kind of abuse? I should know better than to expect justice in the world, but a perfectly innocent color?
Where's the record department, please?
