First of all....WE CARE!
So shush, whoever you are. Go type badly elsewhere. I certainly hope you don't fuck like you type.
Second...Ryo? I think you need a big hug. And soup. Chicken soup. PROGRESSO.
I just don't understand why it's important if it stays or goes.
I have a feeling -someone- just wanted to raise a little controversy.
You know what? This is REALLY cracking me up.
Who CARES if the BC thread is around? Is it hurting anyone?
No.
Is it offensive?
No.
Is it full of argumentative trolls *cough*shrapnel*cough* that have nothing better to do than spread discord just to make themselves feel important?
Probably. But I'm not going to read the entire thread to find out.
If you're looking for controversy, Shrapnel, talk about something that matters. Talk about current events. Talk about politics, religion, capital punishment, coming out of the closet, ANYTHING. But don't pick on a freakin' FORUM THREAD and pretend it's the end of the world if it survives.
Priorities, dood. Grow up and get some.
Live on, Blam Club. Lord knows we've gotten rid of a LOT of crap in the portal. Lord knows we'll continue to do so.
Ah, yes...but not for forever. We'll build a new one, bigger and better! Or...maybe not better, but equal-to. We're tough. :)
I'm already grown up. I don't see the big fuss.
Seriously, enjoy being young. When you get older, the REAL WORLD comes along, and you're like, 'What the FUCK HAPPENENED here???'
Oh, and. I went to college for vocal performance, want to go back and finish, with a different major. I'm a kid at heart, but what's a girl to do?
You're pissed off about having to censor yourself? I think it's a small price to pay when it's such an inflamatory word, and spurns such hatred. It's also easily remedied by typing it out the way I did. If you're truly wanting to use it in an academic sense, your point would get across just fine.

Look at Tom profile...
He don´t have a lot of Threads and posts, but he is the #1!
Looking at the profile give you popularity too!

I just have to say...am I the ONLY person that understood that a new user with the name NOOB is actually making fun of 'noobs', and being sarcastic with the typing method?? Jeezus, people...learn to take a joke! *lmao*
That link didn't show up the way I wanted it to. Here it is again.
Clickyclicky!
At one point, WolfSoldier asked those responding to not take into consideration those that are in charge right now.
Uh, that's a little hard.
Now, would I die for my country? No. I agree wholeheartedly with Scaletail (if I spelled that right!). This is hard, trying to remember all the points I disagreed with in all those responses, and how they were put. I'll try my hardest.
At one point, someone said, 'If you wouldn't die for your country, get the fuck out.' I remember Scaletail saying, 'Send me a check, and I'll be on my way.' EXACTLY. I've been wanting OUT of this country since Bush was elected. I knew something like this was going to happen, and I didn't want any part of it.
I'm against war, period, though I can see the reasoning behind defending a country. This, however, is not a war that we'd be entering to protect ourselves. War on terror? My ass. If getting rid of nuclear weaponry is so important to Mr. President, then I believe he should start with our own arsenal. The US does, after all, have the largest number of them on earth.
I would not die FOR this country. I would die trying to make this country a better place, yes. We are fighting terror with terror, really...it's like slapping a child while chastizing him, 'DON'T HIT YOUR BROTHER!' It's rediculous. Yes, something has to be done. But there are other avenues, I believe. What are they? Fuck, don't ask me. I'm not the goddamned president. I have a few ideas, but they might only work in a perfect world.
As for foreign affairs in general...someone in this thread stated that America holds together the rest of the 'corrupt world'. My GOD, I laughed at that. America puts it's nose everywhere it shouldn't be...and while Bush is trying his hardest to fix something on the other side of the globe, his own country is falling apart.
I've made this point before: George W. Bush is DUMB. Just plain...simple minded, and I can't help but feel sorry for him. The smartest thing he did was surround himself with people that are WORLDS smarter than him, and I have to admit that much of our problems are coming from them, and not necessarily the president himself.
If you'd like to see him at his best, check out www.dubyaspeak.com . THAT is a great site.
There's so much more that I could say, but I won't right now. I'm going to end up psychobabbling more than I have. I will say this, though:
TO THOSE OF YOU WHO THINK EVERYTHING IS JUST FINE: Open your eyes, and look at what's truly happening. Bush once said to the countries of the world, 'You're either for us, or against us.' How long until all those other countries see that for the threat it is? This isn't merely Vietnam all over again. This is much more dangerous, with nuclear and biological and chemical weapons at our fingertips. Millions of people may die. Innocent people. Doesn't that mean anything?
I think it's sad.
I think it's just another step toward taking away our freedoms, slowly but surely. I also think that one of the greatest things in the world is our anonimity, our sense of privacy and protection.
Sure, it may not seem like a huge deal. It's only P2P file sharing, after all. But it's the start of what? Something bigger, maybe?
I know, I sound like a freakin' conspiracy theorist. But it's scary to think about.
Also...the 600 files a day is MORE than fucked up. Seriously? I think the only way a person could honestly do that is if they had more than one machine working at the same time. And a lightning fast connection.
You're right. It DID end three years ago.
Are you honestly going to sit here and tell us that it's not reasonable for us to be talking about it now? It's affecting us today, so we can talk about it today. For fuck's sake, Reagan's economics were affecting us twenty YEARS after his presidency, and people talked about it.
So...WWII ended over half a century ago. Should we stop talking about it? Or...any history?
Get with it. This is a bigger issue than a lot of people think. No, we can't change what happened, but if we talk about what DID happen, we can possibly prevent it from happening again.
As for the rest of this conversation. I sincerely want to know how many people who bitch about Bush, or Gore, or ANY other politician....I want to know how many of you are old enough to vote, or how many of you are registered if you ARE old enough...or how many of you excersized your voting rights. This isn't a knock on anyone, really...I'm just hoping I'm not debating with a bunch of precocioius kids.

Why cant I call them that?For the same reason that only Italian-Americans can call each "diego" and that only black-Americans can call each other "n*gg*r". Only women can call each other "bitches" and only LBGT people can call each other "queer" or "fag". I know gay men that affectionately call their friends "fags" but if a straight man said it... there'd be hell.
Actually, you're both right, and both wrong.
It depends on how it's used. I call my gay friends 'queer' or 'fag' all the time, but it's affectionate. Same with some straight friends, that call the same gay friends 'fag' or otherwise.
Honestly? I think it's all in the perspective of who's being called that. They have the choice of taking it how it is...as a joke or a term of endearment, or they can freak out about it.
I think what upsets me the most is the abundance of insults that people throw around, using 'FAG!' and 'UR SO GAY' as if it's a bad thing. Ever hear the John Lennon song, 'Woman is the Ni**er of the World'? That's what's happened with the word 'fag' or 'gay'. It's thrown around as an insult, and no one thinks twice, just like the word 'ni**er' was used. It's sad to think so many young people are so ignorant to that.
DISCLAIMER: That is actually the name of the song. I HATE the 'n' word, and I'd never use it otherwise, but that's the title. It's not meant to offend.
(small edit) WOW! I'm impressed! I actually tried typing out the title of the song, and it wouldn't let me post! I'm very impressed. :)
So yeah, I'm still alive, but super busy! HOW ARE YOU ALL? :)
From My Room is also almost gone...and that was in the 20's a week ago. It's crazy!
I just spent a few minutes going through the reviews of 'Silent Bob - Stoner'. Y'know, the flash movie that won Daily Feature. And it occurred to me that not enough people read the author's comments on the movies they vote on.
There were people asking 'Why didn't he TALK?'
There were people saying, 'The music didn't go with it.'
There were people commenting on the lack of plot.
I sincerely hope some of you read this freakin' thread!
If you don't understand the plot/music...go to www.apple.com/switch and watch any of those quicktime movies there. (The Ellen Feiss one is HILARIOUS...she's so stoned.) You'll get the 'plot' and the reason why that music was used as well.
For those of you too lazy to do THAT...it's a series of ads made my Macintosh to get people to switch to their computers. That's all...and 'Silent Bob - Stoner' was a parody of those ads.
Second...It's hard to believe that there's so many out there that don't know who Silent Bob is...but seriously. He's not supposed to talk. That's his charm...he only talks occasionally, and it's fantastic when he does. Rent some movies, and you'll understand: Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.
You can thank me later.

I truly hope you're joking.
If you're not? And you're serious? How...sad. Sad that someone can be so...deluded.
That's all.

Exactly. That's not how it works, but it should.
And if we don't like the 'system'...don't we have the power to change it?
"Any people whatsoever have the right to abolish the existing government, and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable, a most sacred right -- a right which we hope and believe is to liberate the world."
- Abraham Lincoln, 1848
How sad that our own government has made that impossible.
This is the STUPIDEST fucking topic in the world.

And on that note - I'm such a faghag! I love gay guys and bi girls, (ah hell I like smart, cool, and sweet people).
Bi girls are fun! Every one likes to be greedy!
b :D ;)
WOO! Another faghag!
As a bi-girl...I'm surrounded by gay men. Surrounded. SURROUNDED. A great percentage of my male friends are gay.
I think it's because they're non-threatening. All my straight guy friends have asked me for sexual favors at one time or another.
My boyfriend, however...is straight. WOOHOO!
If you notice, I never said it was any different. ;)
We all play God sometimes. We do it when we step on insects, when we become doctors, in almost every aspect. But really...that's more free will than anything.
I stuck to abortion, because that's the thread topic. Taking it completely off topic would be rude.
I'll leave it at that. If you care to start a 'when do we play God' thread, I'd be happy to discuss it there.
I live in 'Beaverton'. That always gets chuckles.
There's a town not too far away called 'Boring, Oregon'.
That about sums it up, too.
Good lord, people.
The institution of marriage was created for biblical reasons. A union of two souls in the eyes of God. THAT is why people get married, or that's how it used to be.
Now? It's sometimes for the wrong reason. I've been blessed, surrounded by good marriages and examples. My parents have been married for almost 40 years.
I do agree, however, that life with another person is possible without marriage. I believe it's something that shouldn't be entered into lightly.
And for cryin' out loud...if you get married, HONOR YOUR VOWS.
Divorce is too easy.
Simple fact. Gore won by popular vote. Bush won because of the fucking electoral college.
I'm not going to give this thread a whole lot of my time by trying to explain why racism in ANY form is wrong. Obviously the creator of this thread isn't going to listen to reason, if he's already convinced that racism is alright as long as it's 'non violent'.
I just want to put out there for people who agree with him, but have open minds...
Think about the past. Think about the hatred, and how it's never done anything but hurt other people.
Then try to justify your predjudices. Doesn't stand up to logic, does it?
I will say this to the creator: It must be hard, going through life with so much angst and hatred built up inside of you. Whatever happened to you to make you dislike other races, and make you believe that your race is superior...I'm sorry. But two wrongs do not make a right. You have a choice, and I'll be praying that you come to see that all people are beautiful.

...what about band class? ;)
Just kidding.
Seriously, though. I agree. Cellphones should be allowed in schools, but most certainly not in class. They should stay in lockers until breaks, or lunchtime, or whatever.
This cracks me up, however. When I was still in high school? NO ONE had cellphones in school. And it certainly wasn't as fashionable to have one wherever you went.
Lord, times have changed.

Theoretically, yes. If you ONLY take into consideration the future of the baby.
Theologically, the problem with abortion isn't the baby, or where the baby ends up. It's the moral and ethical question of, 'When is it right to play God, and take a life?' Who are we to decide when or where or how a human life is taken?
That's the crux. But believe it or not, I'm pro-choice. Not for myself, mind you. I couldn't do that, because it goes against my moral and ethical judgement. But I'm not about to place judgement on others for what they do, and try to gauge where their eternal lives are going to be spent. The responsibility of that sort of judgement rests upon the shoulders of Christ.
I also do not think abortion should be made illegal. It isn't right to have our government tell us what we can do with our own bodies. And the bottom line is this: the moment abortion becomes illegal, the safety of a medical environment is lost. Whether or not abortion is right or wrong isn't the only question. It's whether or not we're willing to put the life of the mother in danger, as well. I personally don't wish to go back in time, to the era of coat-hanger abortions and women dying because some butcher tried to help her get rid of her child.

I agree with all those stated guidelines, except perhaps the Slizor is always right part. ;) If this happens, I certainly hope we can use the honor system and stick to them.
