'Bitch' is defined by its strength. Also, 'dick' and 'pussy' are mostly used against males.

That would have been a better example, because I do use that one, and use it the same for both men and women.

I mean, it's not just how the individual uses it but how society perceives it, and how society applies it.

'Dick' and 'pussy' are both mostly used against males. 'Bitch', when used against males, means weakness "don't be a bitch!", but against females, means strength "you bitch!". Not making a statement, just observing.

This is kind of getting off topic, isn't it?

SUPER off topic, but it is always interesting to discuss societal trends.

Because...uh...

We're trying to figure out how to classify Cui. He reproduces asexually, y'know.

He's a fruit.

A kiwi, to be precise.

On topic, I think I've noticed a theme with Frieza's troops in Abridged. All of them have a detail that shocks or disgusts everyone who finds out... or is reminded.

Such as Frieza in the Shower, Zarbon's stereotypes being bullshit and him being a big toad, Dodoria being the most fertile woman on her planet (until Frieza blew it up), and Cui reproducing asexually as he likes to remind everyone.

If I knew how to do the whole "sarcasm/sincerity mode" links, I'd have put it as sincerity mode.

So, the kiwi fruit has quite separate sexes as far as plants go, from what I recall...

Well, the tree, not the fruit. Fruit's just an ovary.

Renegade for Life: Spooky's House of Jumpscares. I've seen Markiplier play this. It gets legitimately creepy eventually but I can't imagine Vegeta having enough patience to get that far.

On pussy, bitch, men and women.

Anywho, because I got into the show mid-Namek (just like DBZ itself, actually), I didn't know Bardock Abridged came before that season. It's a bit more comedy now to think of that gag with the raspy Frieza voice.

I got into the show right around when episode 30 came out. I watched a couple mid-Namek episodes to see what the hype was about, then went back and watched the whole thing.

I started watching somewhere around Season 1 then kinda forgot about it until they were somewhere in Season 2, I think.

I remember being not sold on an abridged show that wasn't Yugioh Abridged (back before I realized TFS, with greater manpower, talent, etc. was much better). On some thread here, someone linked a specific video that made me think: "Yes, I'll give this show a shot."

And guess where it's from...
