Kawalimus

Jesus Christ. Go read the posts if you don't believe me. That guy who just posted got everything wrong and I corrected him, and now you don't think I'm being honest in my posts? You think I'm just trying to trick everyone? Well I'm serious, the person who used my name stole it from my name on these forums. I saw on a news site that someone used the name Kawalimus as a wrestler back in October. So I posted trying to find info, in a completely fine way. Yet somehow that is interpreted as me "throwing a fit" because he used the name. I never got angry, I just posted some questions about it since looking it up other ways turned up nothing. The only time I get angry is when people post things I didn't say or intentionally misinterpret what I post to try to make me look like an idiot. But I'm not an idiot all I want to do is find out more about that, but people just can't ask questions without others acting like assholes can they? It doesn't seem like it.

I WASNT MOCKING HIM!!! That name wasn't out of mockery the man is a friend of mine!!!! Just because he's mentally retarded doesn't mean he can't have a nickname. And Kawalimus isn't his nickname Kawalimus is part of his nickname fused with another thing. If he used the internet he'd let me use it. But I did make up that name for him, so it is my name. And it wasn't in Vancouver it was in Florida. Get your facts straight please!!

Do people here hate me that much?! I barely even post on this forum!!

OK I'm not gonna say a word yet about episode 9. But what I will talk about is the preview without any spoilers. Now like someone else I was gonna go dark on it but I couldn't resist and decided to watch it figuring they're not gonna do that again just like they did last episode. WELL THEY DID IT AGAIN. THEY SPOILED THE ENTIRE GODDAMN END THE SERIES!!!! This pisses me off so much. I am gonna call up HBO sometime these next two weeks and give them a fucking piece of MY MIND!!! WHEN YOU DO A PREVIEW, you don't fucking give away SPOILERS. Do not watch these previews if you don't want to see the end of the series, period!!! I am so angry about this right now you wouldn't believe it.

Fans listen, I just had an idea. You know those boards for prank calls where they do things you press the button and it says something from a celebrity like The Terminator or Samuel L Jackson? Well I think somebody should make one of these for the character Snoop.

Has mudslinging lost its impact this year? I mean Obama probably done the least of it, yet he's beating Hillary as of now. I think it may have become such commonplace to run attacking negative campaigns that people just aren't as moved by em anymore. Everyone expects the monday or October surprise now. Everyone is so covered in mud, the whole thing cancels itself out. And Obama stands out cause he's not out there throwing mud like most other candidates. It's just that in past years these attacks on Obama's character would probable kill him just like McCain in 2000 South Carolina but they haven't. People are just sick of it.

20 people who you'll meet on a sports message board. http://www.thephatphree.com/features.asp?S...mp;LayoutType=1 Which one are you? HA HA HA!!! fixed it.

For those of you who don't have OnDemand and haven't seen episode 8 yet(don't worry, won't spoil it), and don't want to be spoiled, I recommend NOT watching the episode 9 preview. It basically gives a whole bunch of shit away and I'm kind of angry about it. Normally previews just give hints of what's coming and make you want to see it more, but this was pretty much a spoiler. Unless they were being misleading(which I don't see possible judging from the stuff we saw). So again, if you don't want to be spoiled, DO NOT WATCH THE PREVIEW FOR EPISODE 9. You have been warned .

Well I don't call myself Kawalimus Kid. I'm just Kawalimus. The kid part was added by someone else and not me. And I can have whatever gripe I want with whatever network and person. This is a thread about things we don't like about ESPN and Reali is one thing I hate. I never made a thread on this forum about Tony Reali, I'm just talking about him in here like I'm supposed to. Now if I were making threads about it that's another thing.

Yeah I said he said it facetiously. That's the part you missed .

You see the title. You know what I speak about, those songs you hear all the time in ads, promotions, maybe on tv or the radio just playing. But what are these songs that just need to GO AWAY forever or at least not be used for years? I can think a couple off the top of my head. 1. Let the Bodies Hit the Floor--STOP!!! JUST STOP ALREADY!!! This song was kind of corny to begin with but fun for a while. But that was many years ago at this point. This song been played over and over again in movie promotions, ads of all sorts. And it's even played non-ironically at times. That's like playing a song like Kung Fu Fighting. Just FIND SOME MORE SONGS TO USE and not this one anymore. 2. Ladies and Gentlemen--You know what I'm talking about. This not been around as long as Bodies but it's been used in so many commercials including Wrestlemania. The first part the song is pretty cool, until the actual song begins and then it's just garbage. In fact how come everything from this band 'saliva' is always used? Do they have any fans? WHY CANT THESE COMPANIES FIND BETTER SONGS TO USE FOR THEIR ADS THAT ARE SHITTY IN THE FIRST PLACE?!?! Now what other songs do you folks here everywhere that you just want to see not allowed using ever again?

I wish that would work, but it won't. It's too simple of a solution, if viable it would have already been implemented. The democrats did fuck up big time by allowing it to happen in the first place, but now there's really no turning back. They can't just say "OK, we're liberal, but you really should understand what the term means before you trash it". It just doesn't work that way. And doing that would mean you'd have to discuss the issues, and like you said, the issues really don't end up mattering much. And if a Democrat even starts calling himself a liberal, he will lose a lot of support and funding, and sadly in the current political climate you can't make it without a good deal of money on your side. Lose your contributors, lose your campaign, that simple. That said, it is amazing that Obama, the most liberal senator in terms of voting, raised so much money and is seeing so much support. That makes me optimistic. But I just worry that between now and November the country will sour on him since it will be so easy to pin the evil liberal label on him. And this is all assuming he even wins .

Well I didn't cite any specific issues, just that Obama is liberal on most of them. I think you are underestimating the damage the 'liberal' label can do to someone in some parts of the US. There was a GOP primary congressional race here where the whole thing was just candidates throwing around accusations of the others being liberal. And guess what? It worked. Andy Harris won his primary. Check em out. http://youtube.com/watch?v=fKNtr-MazaU&feature=related http://youtube.com/watch?v=9fFpCjzPJSI&feature=related Now I know this is a GOP primary election. But my point is that this guy just labeled everyone who opposed him a liberal, and that won him the race over a longtime incumbent. There are just a ton of people in this country who will never vote for anyone considered liberal, regardless of what the actual issues are.

Sorry, I fucked up Penn. For some reason I had it remembered as a red state in 04. I think it will stay blue for Obama like you do. I admit I am not sure on the state by state nether. But he will need to swing some of those that you mentioned, and I think an Ohio win is very very important. He will probably swing a few of those but it may not be enough to overcome an Ohio loss. I honestly don't remember how many electoral votes each of these states has, I always forget.

If Obama wins the primary I don't see him winning the general as easily as some people think he might. Obama is a liberal. And I am liberal myself, but the problem is most of America isn't. And that's not gonna sit well for him in the general and I doubt he will swing any of the red states. Now the swing states are another tough one. I certainly don't see Obama doing very well in Florida, after the Democratic party saying don't campaign there. And then they vote for Hillary when he does. And the senior voters aren't as into Obama as others. So I see it coming down to Ohio again. Obama is gonna have to win Ohio if he is in the general election. Does anyone think he can swing another state besides that one? Maybe Pennsylvania? I don't. Fact is when thinking of the electoral college, this country is as deadlocked as its ever been. Obama may have tons of momentum now but if he wins the primary between now and november you're gonna see a tighter race than you would think.

Reali even admits today he can't judge an argument worth a damn. He says and facetiously at the beginning "The show that accurately scores the arguments". Why do they keep him around if he admits can't do his job? Around the time of Superbowl 35, Trent Dilfer joked that the Ravens would be the only team to win the Superbowl despite the quarterback, jokingly admitting he was terrible at what he did. After it was over, the Ravens agreed with him, and let him go because even he could see that he was unable to do the job he was paid for. ESPN should do the same with Reali.

Agreed. After 9/11 happened, when proud to be an american was played at Ravens Stadium the next game it was moving. Now with them actually bringing Lee Greenwood to the stadium to sing it sometimes and playing it EVERY GAME since then, it's lost its touch. See that's what I'm saying. In Modern Times, everything is overexposed. Nothing's special anymore.

Here's another one I just thought of. I hear it played at lots sporting events these days but don't know what it's called. Though I've heard it referred to as 'zombie nation' I think. It goes something like "OohhoohhhohoohOHHoh. OhohohOHOHOHOHOH oh oh oh oh". If anyone knows what that is, please tell me, and it's gotten annoying at these events already.

I just thought of another one. Crazy Train by Ozzy. This one is done to death, needs to be retired.

I wasn't talking about you, Milky. I was talking about the guy who said I hated it. Mik was his name not Milky.

I think you should read all my posts. Remember I said before, this isn't a "songs you hate" thread this is songs that are constantly used in pop culture or played that you think should be put on the backburner a significant amount of time so the main market isn't saturated in them. And the first two songs I mentioned in this thread sucked. Now I don't know what any of those independent songs even were, and possibly they are good songs. What I'm saying is they are used so much and those commercials so often seen that they might as well be Stairway to Heaven. And just like Stairway to Heaven it is overplayed and overrated. I like Led Zeppelin too. And Queen is a good artist. But the problem is those songs are played so much at arenas they have lost all the meaning they once may have had. So you want to hear different things, you want the corporate suits to try something different and give the arena a more local and cultural flavor rather than just the same mass marketed shit everyone else has. That's what I'm trying to get at in this thread. If not I would called this thread "Songs you Hate". But remember you can still hate these songs, they just have to fit in the other category too.

Anybody who thinks that the best way to use a song is put it an ad that's going to play it over again ad nauseum until it's as annoying as any other song been overplayed. I don't even know what some of these songs are called or who does them, that's why I can't get into specifics. But what I do know is that I hear em all the time when I watch something like ESPN. That's why I like a channel like Turner Classic Movies, they show good films and NO COMMERCIALS!! Which means no goddamn songs or jingles to listen to. And thank god I work at a place with no radio. Or else I'd have 200 more songs add to this list!!!

But you don't have to dislike a song to say that you don't wanna hear it too many times. I think lots those songs like Queen and Steppenwolf are fine too but that's the thing, it's overdone. It's lost any meaning it had cause you just hear it over and over again. And those are the good songs! The bad songs are much worse. And here's the thing. Lots of songs nowadays are overplayed. Why is that? Because things are overexposed. In this society there is no restraint. If you can pump it out in mass amounts that's what's gonna happen. Same goes for music. A company sees a song they like, they get permission? They're gonna play it as much as they can. Like I said there's no restraint. Another couple songs I thought of. That independent rock stuff they play on these MP3 Player commercials. We get it you think you are down with some kind of scene because these are lesser known songs. Well guess what, they aren't lesser known anymore because of you jackasses and they're just as annoying as any other song been overplayed. ANY SONG CAN BE OVERPLAYED!! It doesn't have to be well known.

I wasn't thinking about those..but I agree, especially with the We Will Rock You part. I always thought that was overrated as an arena song anyway. It's just a cool beat, but not really a song that gets you fired up or evoke any sort of emotional response. It's sort of like THE WAVE of songs.

Well then I'm Spartacus! This is funny and all but I'd still like find out who it was.
