You know, I find it strange to say this, but... I agree with TM. There are so many better things for us to get angry at each other about! Why must we drag musical tastes into it? EDIT: Right... literally speaking, I don't agree with TM. Well, I don't agree with his wording...

quote:Jeff Vogel, owner of Spiderweb Software, owns these boards. Thus, he has the power to choose what can and cannot be said here. I recall that not too long ago, he locked an abortion thread just because he didn't want that kind of polarizing debate here. But getting back to the actual thread, another embarassing moment... how about breaking up with a girl, who after 6 months, I still cared about? The difficulty was that I couldn't take another day of being in a relationship with her... so one evening when I was talking to her (me being outside my dorm room, she being in hers, a state away), I started up the "we need to talk" line of conversation, after listening to her yak with her friends for half an hour (they were in the room with her). Might I add that it's really unpleasant to basically listen to other people's conversations for half an hour when you really just called to talk to one person? Anyway... unpleasantness ensued, and I wound up making the stupid promise to not decide on anything until Thanksgiving break (this was early November last year... which was bad, because I knew what I wanted to do already. This was also after a really horrible month, wherein... well, that's another story. But anyway, Thanksgiving rolled around, and to celebrate the holiday, we broke up. I made the girl cry... it was very, very... well, awful. I'd regret it more if I didn't know that it was the right decision. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice.

quote:I am similarly confused by the sudden outburst of rarely-seen accounts with this topic's arrival. Perhaps it's just the sort of thing that naturally brings out lurkers, but it's still weird. And really, I can see how Israel would be down to their last ounce of patience (or how they lost it years ago), but I'm always inclined to say that there has to be a better way. I'm not saying it's a practical one (it's not), or it's one that people will ever pursue (they won't), just wistfully hoping that one day, people wil get along for five minutes over there.

I just echo the sentiments expressed by Wonko at the beginning of the thread... all of this over two kidnappings when suicide bombings seem like regular occurrences. Particularly when they choose to knock out power and water to half a million Palestinians... It's just insane. And I can't help but feel some sympathy for the Lebanese government... they don't stand a chance, and there's nothing they can do about it but pray that another major power intervenes, when every major power is scared stiff at the mere thought of getting involved. EDIT: GremlinJoe, calm down. And where is Gearga? [ Thursday, July 13, 2006 20:40: Message edited by: Ephesos ] -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead.

Nico, that's priceless. More so given that his mother thought the same thing. I tend to forget this kind of stuff... anybody else have a hard time thinking of these? Wait, nevermind... repressed memories resurfacing. Two rather good ones, actually. -In middle school, getting sick and vomiting after drinking a bottle of blue Gatorade at lunch. If only I'd made it out of the hallway... -Having to tell a girl who I'd just helped get out of a bad relationship that no, I couldn't date her and my then-girlfriend too. Very, very awkward. -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead. I really, really, really, really hate undead. With a passion.
