*sniggers*

Sylverline Jul 25, 2004 10:00 PM

Was that too blatant?

Kiggs Jul 25, 2004 10:01 PM

No, Kat.

Not in the least. ^_^

Shned Jul 25, 2004 10:02 PM

True honesty marks a true person.

Sylverline Jul 25, 2004 10:02 PM

*Burns style* Excellent

Minion Jul 25, 2004 10:32 PM

indeed, i would rather vomit ON the books and movies though...

Kiggs Jul 25, 2004 10:34 PM

*bounces along to Michelle Branch*

So yeah...methinks I'm going to cut my hair again. Not as short as I did last year, but merf.

_Vincent_ Jul 26, 2004 01:24 AM

Bah. HP is great.

Minion Jul 26, 2004 01:32 AM

your opinion, honestly, i never saw what was so great about it....

I understand that you don't like Harry Potter, but downright degrading it in a public space in front of some people who DO like it is ridiculously rude, Min. To each their own, but please keep it to yourself -_-

Minion Jul 26, 2004 01:36 AM

so what can you do, tel people who dont like it to keep it to themselves too and let the convo go down the road to Hp worship...whatever, i apologize....

Mike Jul 26, 2004 01:40 AM

The difference between you and others who don't like it is the fact that you're making a huge scene about it while they aren't. I am NOT trying to promote any form of HP liking. I'm sorry you think I am.

_Vincent_ Jul 26, 2004 01:40 AM

Down boys, down.

AP Jul 26, 2004 01:48 AM

Yes, the films are a load of bollocks, but if you don't enjoy the books, the basis of the series, chances are you're a moron with an IQ of about 10 who simply doesn't read much, period. Either that, or you don't appreciate books which are more complicated than "Ben is a dog. Ben ran away. Run Ben run."

To be frank, even if you don't like the concept, the characters, the setting, the plot, or even JK's style of writing, you have to appreciate what a huge effect this has had on the children of our generations and ones before and after us everywhere. If you're just going to be shallow and instantly say "Oh, hary potter kiddy sux", fine. I don't care if you don't like the books. Don't like them. It's not everybody's cup of tea.

However, don't be so stupid. Hate them, but appreciate them.

PS: Before you even start to write a reply to this, Blow me. Don't get me started.

_Vincent_ Jul 26, 2004 01:49 AM

Meh, I'm good with the 3rd film. Alfonso is just brilliant. Colombus wasn't as great, though. 2nd one was the only one I didn't like, moviewise. And, you tell 'em, Lex.

quiet, and drink this Jul 26, 2004 02:12 AM

True honesty. haha :)


Big hugeness.

Kiggs Jul 26, 2004 02:13 AM

...

How about everyone drops the whole topic. Alex, that was rather rude...Telling someone thier IQ is low because they don't like a certain series. Come on...act like an admin here..

quiet, and drink this Jul 26, 2004 02:17 AM

Kiggs, at times, you can be a big, big, huge, big, mother around here.

I don't know if it's just me, but it gets annoying. I know you mean well, but kids like to "insult" each other these days, especially on the internet. I don't know if you are aware of this trend or not.

Incorrect. Read my post again.

I told them their IQ was low because people who act like that have no appreciation for the effort that went into the books, and the series in general, and generally they refuse to acknowledge the fact of how much it has effected the world, and how much of a great achievement it is in terms of literature. You should know. You're the lit mod. What I was suggesting by saying they had a low IQ was that they perhaps weren't intelligent enough to see past their dislike to the genius that there is at the core of the novels. Maybe it wasn't obvious enough. But there it is now, in black and white.

Yes, I am an admin, but I absolutely REFUSE to bite my tongue on my views because of it. Especially on something like this. I'd rather resign.

Kiggs Jul 26, 2004 02:20 AM

...Oh forget it. I'm not in the mood to deal with this.

Minion Jul 26, 2004 02:23 AM

sigh, listen, i said i apologize, if you guys cant accept that, i dont give two shits about it or you, continue fighting like a bunch of old women, i don't care......what say we move onto a different topic before this really gets out of hand, hmm?

_Vincent_ Jul 26, 2004 02:26 AM

Please, everyone, just drop it. I know I can't do anything, but no need for this to go farther.

Kiggs Jul 26, 2004 02:37 AM

..Okay, who the fuck put #uff9 on invite only!?

*mock fumes*

Minion Jul 26, 2004 02:41 AM

yeah, same happened to me

Mike Jul 26, 2004 02:51 AM

My apologies for being rude earlier. I'm in a particularly bad mood right now (I recently learned that my two best friends are leaving the state in a couple of years) and I easily flip when I'm in a bad mood. My attitude was rather uncalled for.

In any case, did you know that you can purchase Norton Internet Security(tm) 2004 for Windows(r) and recieve $30usd or $45cdn via mail-in submission?

quiet, and drink this Jul 26, 2004 02:57 AM

JUST DROP IT ALREADY!!!


























haha, I pick the most inappropriate times to joke sometimes.

Minion Jul 26, 2004 02:58 AM

yeah, like then :P

AP Jul 26, 2004 05:31 AM

New Jules/Vincent pulp fiction set.

Shned Jul 26, 2004 08:13 AM

Haha. Quality stuff, Alex.

Dr. Flux Jul 26, 2004 08:23 AM

You should make the av black and white the same as the sig. Then it would fit together :)

Smaug Jul 26, 2004 08:59 AM

Pulp Fiction just kicks ass.

"What contry are you from?!"

"What?"

"'What' Ain't no country I've ever heard off! Do they speak English in 'What'?"

"...what?"

"English, motherfucker! Do you speak it?!"

"Yes."

DreamLines Jul 26, 2004 09:22 AM

Ezekiel 25:17.... "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish, and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and goodwill, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down on thee with great vengence and furious anger, those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers, and you will know my name is The Lord when I lay my vengence upon thee."

Heh Heh, I actually used part of that quote in my R.S GCSE.....I'm such a loser!

Anyway, it's a great sig AP, although I agree with mini, in that the avatar should also by black and white to create the full effect.

Sylverline Jul 26, 2004 10:02 AM

That bloke has a huge 'fro.

Samuel L. Jackson was excellent in "The 51st State". Meatloaf was in that too o_O

Dr. Flux Jul 26, 2004 10:05 AM

mmmm meatloaf

The quote owns. Then again, that whole scene from the film is great.

AP Jul 26, 2004 12:25 PM

I probably will make the av black and white eventually.

And after the convo in the chat.. Yes, I am black to anyone who doesn't already know.

Shned Jul 26, 2004 12:38 PM

I suppose that fact's never had reason enough to come into conversation. In all the time I've known you, Alex, I never would have guessed.

_Vincent_ Jul 26, 2004 12:45 PM

I remember knowing it from an LHH thread.

Anyways, your fro is bigger? o_O

Smaug Jul 26, 2004 02:02 PM

'Lex is black?

I didn't know that. =P
