Your Paragon of Virtue

Journalism class teaches you the opposite (establish your position at the start, then defend it). When you write a thesis, you gather evidence than you create it. It makes your research unbiased. I thought that was common knowledge?

How were they an anti-hair band? Comparing them to Avril Lavigne? You're reaching now buddy. Even with your "anti" theory, it's still way too flawed to hold up, I'm not even gonna bother. AFD was a great album, the rest is bleh.

You screwed up the "salted's" What do you throw out when you need it, and take in when you don't? My Ex-wife! *Ba dum buM CHH* Actually the answer is an anchor, it was in some mensa book. I liked Ex-wife though.

1) Conason got OWNED! 2) Nice to see the insane left ADMITTING to planning on peddling lies. -=Mike It's funny that someone who claims to be the most moderate poster on the board CONSTANTLY comes up with irrelevant stories that no one gives a shit about and/or takes seriously about extremist liberals, all the while gleefully pointing out the "Hypocrisy of the left". I mean really, generalizing the ENTIRE left for slandering GWB because a couple of dipshits made up a rumour in a few chat rooms? Thinking that this sort of crap carries weight or has credibility is like saying that the fucking Drudge Report is more reliable than the NY F'n Times. Larry Flynt might, just MIGHT be lacking in moral character? GET THE FUCK OUT~!

I'm pretty sure Rodrigo is Renzo's cousin, but I am certain that Marco RuaS is not related to Mauricio Rua. Instead, Mauricio is related to fellow Chute Boxe badass motherfuck Murilo Ninja. They are brothers.

Substitute "Besus" with "Lando Griffin" and "more often" with "never again" and your statement still rings true.

That's because you have a vagina. Sand-filled might I add. I consider "Slow Jamz" to be more Kanye West's than Twista. If I were to think of the title, it would be Kanye West f. Twista, not the other way around. Not to mention that Kanye produced that song. It really is a great song though. I wonder why mainstream rap is so much better received than mainstream rock? Interesting. Is there a video for Dirt Off Your Shoulder yet? I think "Edge" and Ricky Williams running people over would make a great video. That song is such a song for football it's not even funny.

Might as well throw this in there: Point by Point dissection of the same sex argument. (It's long, so if you don't feel like reading through all of that just look at specific points)

81 Home games makes that a much easier task to accomplish. Number of sellouts/game would be a interesting statistic, or even average attendance versus capacity. *Sigh*

I had no idea who Testament was, and still don't, but this reminds me of that eps of the Simpsons. "Join us after the service in the basement for the hip Christian Rock stylings of Testament." Bart: "Pfff, everyone knows all the best bands worship Satan."

Don Cherry? About that; what he said was wrong. It's not wrong in that he said that most French Canadians or Europeans wore visors, because that's factual. It's wrong in that he's implying that they're pussies for doing it. I also don't know why he points out they're French; after all, they're still French CANADIAN, just like he. They're his fellow countrymen. Interesting note; in an attempt to "protest" the fact that Canadians were going crazy over some American coming up here (Conan), he denied the invitation to be on the show and instead went on..THE MIKE BULLARD SHOW~!

The general Roman Catholic stance on it is that it isn't just about love, but the fact that it makes a mockery of the traditional stance of marriage. At least, that's what most Christians I know say, the ones that are against it. I'd provide links on articles but I am unsure of whether or not people here would be willing to read it. I don't even read it, because I don't look at the concept of marriage as seriously as they do. I'll say this much; no matter how "wrong" you may feel about it, it's not like they're going to go to hell because their parts don't fit "properly". I mean really.

What the hell? It was obviously sarcastic, since he's pretty liberal himself. He was making fun of an exaggerated stereotype, not being a bigot. When did you get so PC? So let me ask; was he "banned" for dropping the N-bomb, or for making fun of the stereotype that conservatives are racist? I don't think you have a case really for either one, but then again I'm not a mod. In Tom's defense, I imagine there is zero tolerance policy for that particular term around here. Think about it --- if he let it slide for him, he will be hard-pressed to not let it slide for others. They could simply argue that "It was OK for that guy to use it (though I didn't we have an ENTIRE thread on that term v "nigga" and what was appropriate?), why not me?" Personally, I'd have no problem with allowing ANY word you wish, as long as you aren't trolling and flaming ad nauseum. If somebody wishes to use that term, let's see them try and get taken seriously again. -=Mike I'm not complaining. But like you said, there was a thread discussing the term before (one that I'm not willing to get involved with again) and nothing happened, so I'd assume the "banning" was more or less due to the fact that he used it to stereotype conservatives (which shouldn't be taken seriously, but whatever). People say the word all the time on the board, in many different contexts, which is why that's not really something that would get started due to this being allowed. Also, I think that conservatives make fun of liberals all the time on the board, although I guess once you drop the N-bomb you've crossed the line. But two days isn't a big deal, he'll live. I'm not really one way or the other, I don't even know why we're arguing. Bleh, just drop it who cares. Onto more important news regarding my home and native land; does anyone have an idea of who the frontrunner is regarding the Prime Minister hopeful for the Conservatives?

No. Ditto. I also never understood the mentality that even if one thinks a band sucks that "THEY RULE LIVE~!". If I can't stand their music normally, what makes you think I'll appreciate them delving deeper into their own shit? Not bloody likely. You couldn't pay me to go to that show, and I'm surprised at the AWK love on this board. Reliant K; aren't they a Christian punk band? I remember someone telling me that. Don't know for sure though, it would be interesting to me anyway.

I don't think you have a case really for either one, but then again I'm not a mod. To whoever is complaining about social liberalism, I made a post in another thread about Conrad Black selling the only socially conservative paper we have in Canada to some hippie guy, which pissed off the few social conservatives we have left. Ontario was run under communism for awhile (a.k.a. the NDP).

Why? I do, too. Eh, the only people I know that go to church that are in the age-range of 20-27 or whatever, are people that studied in Bible College and have actually gone further with a Christian education....like Spiderpoet. Maybe I'm just cynical. I go, but even if I didn't want to I still would since I live under my parents and all. Seventeen over here though. Anyways forget it, back on topic. Here's a question; how many Christians here are against the marrying of Gay Couples? For the record, I am really indifferent and I don't care either way.

I've seen and experienced enough unbelievable things in both my life and in the world to make believing in this stuff very easy. By "stupid", I mean scientifically unprovable. Well... I'm gonna try and pick up going to Mass regularly again for my Lenten promise. Oh I'm not disagreeing with you at all. I'd consider myself a Christian too, so I know all about taking a "leap of faith". If you used to go to church and felt that you were getting nothing out of it, I don't know that doing it for Lent would change all of that. More power to you though.

Don't forget Arona/Ortiz by the way (which Arona took.....by decision)

Eh, I liked the line, I thought it was clever anyway. What ruins My 1st Song to me is that he raps for about a minute and a half and then for the last two and half minutes of the song he goes all "Fangirl on BET" and gives shoutouts to all these people we don't care about.

Yes, because a man, both fully human and fully divine, dying for our sins isn't a conceivably stupid thing to believe in...... If I didn't read anything else that you've posted, I would've guessed that you were an atheist. Well, the point was to show how moronic it is to criticize one particular part of Christianity because it's "stupid". From a purely scientific standpoint, the whole thing is "stupid". Once a week, I'm eating and drinking the Body and Blood of the Son of God who died for my salvation. Everything about my faith should be called stupid from JotW's perspective, not just one, non-central belief. I figured as much, but I guess it was too subtle for me to grasp. It's also the fact that even to prove a point, most Christians would not admit to it being "stupid". Go to church every Sunday eh? That's odd for anyone on this forum not named "Spiderpoet".

Yeap.

Every Neptunes song ever sounds the same, and not coincidentally, they happened to produce the two worst songs on the album. I think Kanye West produced the two best songs, "Encore" and "Lucifer". Moment of Clarity is simple but still good, and is there a video for Brush the Dirt off your shoulder? I don't even know if it's a single or not. But if the video doesn't involve Ricky Williams and Edgerrin James running people over, I won't be happy. I don't know where the hell I came with this, although I have noticed that after I said that we should all quote ourselves a lot more, is when Squirtle! started doing it. Although he probably got the idea from Mole, he really honed his whole posting style after him. I can see why. He even honoured him in his sig, to which Mole replied "I have been immortalized~!"

You dress like a chick once or twice a week, and you think that's "normal". Eh, you gotta have balls for admitting that. If I were to look at you however....
