Good one[edit]

Needs captures as references - David Gerard (talk) 13:38, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, just wanted to make a start on it. I'm busy doing house work today (my machismo factor is tres low), so will add when I have the time. Bondurant (talk) 13:46, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
Did you pour gin in your ear? Tyrannis (talk) 13:32, 8 June 2010 (UTC)

MACHEESMO Factor[edit]

0. I don't eat hot dogs. Tyrannis (talk) 14:39, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

0. I cook dinner and clean the house even though I'm married. Bondurant (talk) 15:49, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

Europeans[edit]

I can't help but notice the large number of Americans and the suspiciously low number of Europeans in this list. Is this because being European is by itself a symptom of low machismo?

To balance things could I ask that an M rating be given to the following: Mr A Hitler, Attila the Hun (OK - maybe not European exactly) Alexander the Great, Mr C Darwin and Caligula. On the other hand is being dead by itself an indication of low machismo? In which case are these excluded on the basis of simultaneously dead and European?--BobSpring is sprung! 19:45, 26 July 2010 (UTC)

Europeans, by default, have a rating of O. You have to be American to have Machismo. Ex-Troll Cheerleader (talk) 20:42, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
No exception for matadors? 86.165.124.28 (talk) 17:46, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
Actually it's interesting that you should ask about them. The word "machismo" comes from Spanish and its meaning in peninsular Spanish (I don't know about South American) is something close to "sexism" or "male chauvinism". A definition here reads:
  • Actitud y comportamiento de quien discrimina o minusvalora a las mujeres por considerarlas inferiores respecto de los hombres.
Which I would translate as: "Attitude and actions of those who discriminate against and underestimate (or perhaps "look down on") women because they consider women to be inferior to men."
Our friends at CP are probably correct when they say that they have a substantial quantity of this attribute.--BobSpring is sprung! 18:13, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

Using Linux makes one lack Machismo?[edit]

If so, then is there any way to tell what OS (or range of OSes) these guys are using from here? [[User:K61824|]][[User_talk:K61824|]] 06:51, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Windows ME. Apple is hippies(and is not very good for servers anyway, Apple uses RedHat) of course, OSS OSs are Communism! so no.The site itself may be on an OSS. Hold on... Yup, they are on either a Linux or BSD server. I wonder if they know? The domain was registered 28/8/06 and expires in 2015. Also, his name adress and email are given... as is the mans phone number.

Man, if you can put up where can one look up such info (as in which OS they use to host CP) it would almost surely break irony meter everywhere. [[User:K61824|]][[User_talk:K61824|]] 05:07, 21 October 2010 (UTC)
