I'll admit I've seen a topic like this before, but not every day like the ones in the list.

unless you're a ressurect or a DEATed nation, you have no right to bitch.

I've been here for at least a year and a half and the topics are still interesting on occasion. Like when another news story comes out or someone has a new take on a subject.

Oooh! Oooh! I know what to do!

The problem is obviously that people disagree on those other awful topics. Let's only post topics that everyone already agrees on. Y'know, like "Is water wet?" or "Don't you love watching paint dry?" Those kinda things NEVER get boring, right?

Been here since before april '03.

Let's jump to a wrong conclusion and act like we're being really clever!

Hey, if people really want to discuss the tired topics, I'm not gonna try and stop them, I just thought it was worth pointing out. Obviously a case of temporary insanity.

Console Wars. They're so annoying! Just because someone doesn't have the same taste in games as you dosen't mean they're wrong, and you have to force them to 'See the light'.

Of course not.... they fight tigers for a living. I find it interesting that you capitalized Sigfried, but not Roy - just what the hell are you implying??? Roy is not Sigfried's bitch. If, in the extremely unlikely circumstance, these manly beast-masters are gay - then I feel that Roy is the daddy.

It's about time we talked about something important like this. Thanks for starting this thread.

'r' is not worthy of capitalization.

No, it was not worth pointing out. This is easily the most tired topic on NS. Every newbie think they're the first to have the epiphany that the topics here cycle. And before you say it, it doesn't matter how long you've been here. You're a n00b if you're posting this thread. I posted one waaaaay back in my wee little days.

That being said, the Star Wars vs. Star Trek threads are the ultimate in :headbang:.

Are you now implying the letter "R" is gay? You, my fRiend, are a homophobe. Besides, the only letteRs that are openly gay are GReek letteRs.

I'd like to see gay [insert any type of topic that could come of it here] banned, seriously, we know where everyone stands and what everyone thinks... get over it. :p

How do you stand on gay [roller-skating parties where you dress up as 19th century industrialists]??

I want to know, and am willing to discuss.

And overly generalized statements that are bound to get other people angry are oodles of fun!!

The only gay letters are those that you caress when typing your assanine comments... :rolleyes:

As amazing as this may be, Greek people aren't extinct :eek: and the majority of the letters you're using look just like Greek letters! :eek: Oh, and to top it off, a large number of English words are derived from Greek, wowowo. :eek: :eek: :eek:

Seriously, think before you type things...Hey, ameRica is gay!

True, but they are at least an excuse to do Wuthering Heights vs. Pride And Prejudice threads in retaliation.

If I thought before I typed things, I would never type things.

Think about this: you just spent time and energy to logically contradict something that is -on it's face- intentionally non-sensical.

Oh... and the Greeks are not extinct. They are pining for the fjiords.

Personally, I would like to take up the console wars guy. I think, though, that instead of having the standard arguement about odd, scientific things like "pixels" and "graphics" and other fancy-pants unamerican words, we should let them fight to the death in the arena. Imagine it:

(Militaristic music plays)

[Set in the ancient Colliseum.] Four consoles sit in the middle of dusty floor, fans working overtime, ready for battle. The Playstation 2 warms up its large library, while the X-Box prepares its mighty processing power. To one side sits the Gamecube, deceptively small and colorful, but filled with old-school reimagined arcade death. To the other side sits the Dreamcast, an older fighter whose days have passed. Its cord frayed and its ammunition dried up, it waits for what might be the end of its career.

(somebody else take it from here, my creative energy is drying up.)
