A little Q and A
Q: What do a stock broker driving to the Hamptons in his Mercedes and a teenage girl using her daddy's credit card at Abercrombie have in common?

A: They're both more "punk rock" than Good Charlotte.

Q: Why did U2 play to celebrate pro football's return to New Orleans?

A: There isn't a better way to honor the city's rich musical heritage than having a rock band from Ireland reopen the Superdome.

Q: Did an albino midget live a few streets away from me when I was a kid?

A: Yes. He was vertically and pigmentally challenged. And it was rough for the guy. I lived in a neighborhood where people would just walk up to him and say "Hey, lookee there, we got ourselves a fuckin' albino midget. You should done go and join the circus."

Finally, let's help out a friend of mine. My friend Livi is studying fancy book-learnin' at one of them universities, and she's writing a paper. The topic, and the last question, is as follows:

Q: What is the difference between chicks and women?

A: This is where you come in. Give Livi the benefit of your brilliant insight. Post your answer and maybe it will be sited in an honest to god academic tome.

women = chicks we don't want to bang
chicks = chicks we do want to bang

No need to muddy the water with anything deeper'n that.

Frankly, I'd rather have a little T and A.

I agree with you about Good Charlotte, though.

Nothing. They are synonyms. Anyone who thinks otherwise is trying too hard to find subtext in a simple epithet. The only difference I can think of would be the age of the person using the word. A person of an older generation would not be as apt to use "chick" simply because it isn't as prevailing as other slang terms in the parlance of their time.

Chicks are tiny and yellow.

Women are much taller and many different colors.

Chicks are young and interchangeable.

Women are more mature and you can actually differentiate between them.

Ubie, he wrote chicks and WOMEN, not chicks and cunts. Don't take that the wrong way. I dig you and you're not the latter.

I love you for posting this Todd!!!

Chicks haven't had children yet.

Chicks still hear the siren song of danger.

Women live in the suburbs.

I heard the Siren Song of Biscuits and Gravy this morning.

Women can choose to be chicks, when it's fun.

Not all chicks can be women, which can be really sad.

I'm with Ubie.

That first one is fucking brilliant.

Women is the default term for female humans over about 18 years of age.

I can't think of a situation in which I would use the term "chick" unless it was something like "Some chick cut in front of me in the bathroom line" I would never use it seriously.
