After Mild Review...

I have noticed that everybody on this board takes themselves way too seriously. For instance, If I were to make an abortion thread speaking my views... I would be hailed as a sexist neanderthal, merely because I have a differing opinion than the average NSer.

It seems that about 70% of this forum wouldn't shed a tear over the death of say... George W Bush. Which worries me... You may not like him, but he is a person.

And lastly, if anybody makes a post in jest, you have a legion of MoDmOnKiEs reporting it as spam in the moderation forum. Therefore I have no choice but to label this forum, and it's residents. n00bs.

OMG PWNED! :fluffle:

I don't take myself too seriously. I've made several statements meant to be humourous. =-/

It's funny that this thread will prolly either be locked or deated by some oppressive punk. Then again, I heard a few of the mods have left since the old days...

The only reason this thread will be locked is because it's trolling. Really, really shitty trolling.

Well, I guess it's a good thing no one cares what you think of them. Otherwise, this thread might be considered trolling.

Oh no, a sexist neanderthal. Lock the thread, or we'll all be doomed! *ahem*

There are a lot of stuck up prudes here who insist on political correctness. After a while, you'll just learn to poke fun or ignore them. Sometimes I'll get myself into a debate with one, just to see how far I can take it before they lose their temper. ;)

Meh, you're welcome to your opinions. People may like you more or less for them, but that's their choice. I love NS, I take some of it seriously, but I'm also one of the ones who'll try to spice it up with some comedy, as well as intelligent posts.

As to Bush..I fail to see why I should care about any random person I've never met, much less one I can't stand. However, I'm not necessarily representative of NS, or it's liberal side. Some might care, some might not, just as some cared when the Pope died, and some didn't..It goes the same for any political figure in the world.

I didn't really care when the Pope died, since I've never met him, and I'm not religious. People die every second. To place more value on one life than another, that person must be at least somewhat important to you, in some way. As for Bush, just think of life under Cheney. Then when Cheney dies of heart failure in office, you get Condo. Dear lord. Think of all the nutjobs who would scramble for power. Things could get worse, much worse.

So? Do you shed a tear over everyone you don't know personally that dies? Hey pot, meet kettle...

And agh! this is the second time in a week someone has accused everyone here of being too serious. I deny the charge vehemently! *beats you around the head with a spoon*

Actually those of us with more than a passing interest in biology or paleontology would demand some kind of genetic evidence, or at least an examination of your bone structure before labelling you as a neanderthal. You also assume that we share the widespread homo sapiens sapiens bias against neanderthals.

You mean I was supposed to be taking myself seriously? Oh no, I've been doing it all wrong then! :eek:

I don't take myself, or anyone else, seriously at all here. Seriously.

Excpet Lunatic Goofballs, of course. He never makes anything but serious, intelligent, and well-argued posts.

Well, I don't see whats wrong with this, it is nice to have people (usually with a good reply) rip apart what I say, this was I can reform or better prove my statements o.o

64.59% of statistics are made up on th spot!


Also the mods outlawed fun. We had a problem with fun a while ago.

If it were all seriousness in General, then Tink would not have 13,000+ posts. There must be a great deal of fun threads in General if she's been able to accomplish that.

No, you get Speaker of the House, Dennis Hastert after Cheney.

As for people taking themselves to seriously, I can’t help it, I’m an egomaniac. :p
