Netflix Crapping The Bed

The racist said as she judged everyone else.

I am NOT his friend.

That's a neat mirror you have...

The character he's speaking of, "Hawkeye" was a nurse chasing, boozing, excellent surgeon. He was the star of the show, and he was anything but bisexual. Also, the first few seasons were comedy gold. Best ever on American television. After that it was still very good, but couldn't approach the Trapper John/Frank Burns/Spearchucker Jones eps.

I do recall Hawkeye being bromancy but he seemed to be on the hetero side of the scale. You probably could have convinced him to swing or experiment IMO but he seemed pretty cishet to me too. He would have caught my eye, but my feeling was he would have had a decent way to turn me down if I were to ask.

Had to get Spearchucker in there, didn't ya. Yet you don't even know he was only in a handful of episodes and I dont believe any after season 1.

Go with the movie as well. Maybe even the book they made the movie from as well-as it creates expansions for some of the events in the movie. It also frequently gives us less idealized portrayals of the characters...

Off the top of my head, that adds a new depth to one of Hawkeye's breakdown episodes where he talks about his cousin "pushing him out of the boat" :/

He was definitely brought in to be a foil for them, but I don't think he was ever Burns like in any other way.

For starters Winchester was technically the best trained doctor there. Burns was an incompetent who'd had minimal formal training having "apprenticed" under his father and cheated on his board certification.

Winchester's first season is some pretty good character growth as he learns to function in the meatball environment and finds his first friendship in Klinger of all people. By season's end, he's accepted that he's stuck there and even bonded with BJ when Hawkeye was exchanged to the 8063, and their penchant for practical jokes plants a rivalry that shows up several times over the years. He screws up surgically a few times, but takes the chastisements he receives and adapts-same with his relationships. It's through that latter we discover jsut how decent a man he is underneath the defensive bluster.

From his defending a stutterer against bullies to finding the one handed concerto to by Ravel for the pianist who'd lost his hand to refusing to compromise someone else's integrity (Margaret's being assaulted by the man who could return him to the lifestyle he loved), CEW3 was never a ferret faced weasel.

You’re either joking or you’re closeted.

I believe you don't intend any harm here, so let me explain: Being pansexual is separate from being transgender. It's like how you can be a cisgender lesbian, or a transgender heterosexual. I knew I was pansexual many years ago, as @Shirogayne mentioned earlier. I liked to joke that where most people's brains told them "I like men," or "I like women" mine just said "yes, please."

Being transgender is separate from that. It's not moving from one identity to another, it's the intersectionality of understanding who you are, and how it all connects to everything else. Since you don't see that connection, it all looks like separate data points to you, and it can be confusing. You have to put it all together to see it, and then you have to understand the fundamentals of how it works together for it to make sense. To put it another way: not only am I not lost, but I know exactly where I am, and who I am.

As for my mental health, it has been improving dramatically. I now know where to focus my energy, where to channel my will, and while I still have a ways to go (no one truly stops improving mentally), and there are many hardships ahead, I will see them through, and I will emerge victorious. Mentally speaking, I am better off now than I was even a few years ago. My feet have solid footing, my heart knows what it wants, and my mind can see things clearly. There are troubles, but they come from the outside, as problems to be resolved, rather than from the inside. I appreciate your concern, but to paraphrase Mr. Spock, "you may have known of me since 2002/2003, but you do not know me."

You have psychological issues as well as substance abuse issues. How many DUIs are you on now?

You also parrot divisive, hateful opinions that aren't your own and don't have a firm grip on what happens in reality

In short, you're a clown and really shouldn't be lecturing @Amaris on anything

You don’t know a fucking thing about me, dick head so shut the fuck up.

Well all do, you've told us you doss cunt

No you really don't. Anyway I'm not going to argue with you, you're worthless. Bye.

i don't need to be a scatologist to know shit when I smell it...

and honestly man, you're pretty 2 dimensional. we've gotten to know what you're about and what you are at least as well as any bartender.

unless FF has me on ignore again for constantly pointing out how uncunning his ideas are?

He is the type of bitch that uses ignore

When I read posts like this I halfway expect them to include "you know where I live."

Fuck off, self righteous, smug asshole.

You first, Federal Failure.

You're also a fake fucking journalist.

nope...

Not a Trumpette tear.

Okay, sandwich artist.

people are gonna have to just start quoting me with my name removed from the quote tags, I guess.

I mean, it's not right that he should miss out on all the great burns he sets up for me.

He does not actually ignore anyone. He just stops responding for a while until his butt hurts a little less. He has ignored all of us many many times, and that is not how ignoring works.

Crikey, what's a girl gotta do to get some acknowledgement from the little incel?

I never really thought about it, but in retrospect Hawkeye made far too many flirty comments and "jokes" towards other men for there to be absolutely nothing behind it.

As for nothing being explicitly confirmed, you have to remember that MASH doesn't take place in 2022. Klinger spent years trying to get certified as mentally ill in order to get sent home, but when he was offered the chance to get discharged as a homosexual he refused. Staying in Korea was less unpleasant than having a piece of paper that said he was into dudes.

Speaking of which, you have the US Navy to thank for San Francisco becoming Gay Mecca after WWII. Lots of dudes with a discharge for being gay stayed in San Francisco after discharge rather th go home and just stayed with other discharged sailors

Another fun fact: the Navy gave the Village People the greenlight to film their In the Navy music video on an actual fridgate with the intention of using the song for recruitment. They didn't know that the group was....well, what it was

Which seems like exactly something the Top Brass in the military would do

So I can’t put you on ignore, what exactly would you say you do here?
