#2131 Re: The Sunset Strip » The Newsroom (Now on HBO) » 744 weeks ago
Aye gotta say it was a really good ep
I missed last weeks & kinda thought I should try & watch it before this one. But I'm glad I didnt cause I really enjoyed this one.
Some fun stuff. Not enough Olivia Munn tho! & she was sitting down & covered up the whole time 
& was that the p0rnstar Melanie rios or her sister as the brit/Indian guy's date?!
It's grown on me a little this show. Maybe missing that week/not paying attn is a case of abscence making the heart grow fonder or something. But it is good watchable tv.

Ignorant? People need to know everything or they are ignorant? Pretty high standards.
well, i'm not going to apologise for being smarter than "most people"! or apologise for having high standards!
it's a religion of 30-odd million people. it's not like they're living in isolation in the desert somewheres.
& it's another mass killing in america. just weeks after the aurora killings. i thought it would be bigger news, that's all.
Then start a thread about it, john.
like i said before, i was curious as to the reaction. that's why i didn't make the thread last night. i wanted to observe how other people reacted.

so what is it, do you lke them or do you think they suck?
Why do they have to be mutually exclusive? I can like Nirvana and not think Cobain is America's great songwriter, can't I?
i just thought you said cobain sucked. i thought that was mutally exclusive from liking something... but i guess not. you learn something new every day...

Russ derailed the thread a few pages back!
but we should ask Ron his opinion on SLTS just to see!
#2136 Re: The Garden » Chick-fil-A Controversy » 744 weeks ago
cause it's ignorance, that's why i'd damn it.
"most people" having not heard of it is a startling generalisation, to me. maybe i'm ignorant. but i thought it was quite a significant, large & well known religion.
It was posted in this very thread.
yea that was my point. an attack on Sikh's is seemingly only worth a footnote mention, but when it's your kinda own people it's a different story altogether.
& like i'm not saying it's just us or the american media. like i say over here it's relegated to near cat-in-the-tree/"and now.." stories after the olympics etc. i'm just saying, is all. it's strange how it works, that's all.
#2137 Re: Guns N' Roses » Bumblefoot not happy? Speculating.... » 744 weeks ago
whatever, nevermind.
#2138 Re: Guns N' Roses » Bumblefoot not happy? Speculating.... » 744 weeks ago
We were saying just because he song is or isn't a hit, doesn't mean it's a good or bad song.
whatever.
SG said originally said "overrated". he didn't say good or bad.
you don't have the impact that song has had by being devoid of value.
you don't have the impact that song had if "no one could understand [it]".
i don't care whether you bash it's lyrics or not. i just didn't see your point.
i still don't if i'm honest.
but whatever. we're going round in circles.
#2139 Re: The Garden » Chick-fil-A Controversy » 744 weeks ago
i think it speaks volumes that an attack on middle class suburban america gets not only it's own thread on here by comparison but an entire media furore & debate, but an attack aginst Sikh religion get's relegated to below Usain Bolt, the Mars rover or whatever other piddly-dick stories are doing the rounds.
i was actually gonna post the story on here before i went to bed last night, but i was interested to see the reaction for myself.
p disappointed tbh.
maybe it's just fatigue.....
maybe it's cause the gunman died & doesn't hold as much interest.
or maybe it's something else..
it's not just you guys or the American media. it's all but disappeared from the press over here too.
just interesting what makes the news..
#2140 Re: Guns N' Roses » GN'R to play RIR 2013? » 744 weeks ago
i was @ that Leeds fest gig & the schedule was actually running 20+mins or so behind schedule all afternoon & evening, like a lot of festivals are prone to do. BUT the waiting from when The Prodigy went off to when they started assembling the GnR stage was fucking painful. & down in the pit the tension was getting cranked up to fuck. which is the way he wants it, of course!
it was the same old craic, "he's not gonna show", "or there's a helicopter flying over i bet that's just him arriving now" yada yada yada..
& then when they did start assembling GnR's rig it took forever, & then it seemed another age before the finally took the stage.
but back then it was the comeback, & y'know people were slightly more forgiving. even if they shouldn't have been. but after 8yrs of the tour that behaviour isn't as excusable.
