i quite enjoy playing football and other sports [even though i am crap at them] but watching other people play them on telly, or in a stadium, has to be THE most boring activity that mankind has even known.

Football! Hit people and get drunk, not always in the same order...

Statikk HDM 07-25-2001 11:36 PM

When you bash football do you mean the sport of men, OR soccer, in which you kick a checkered ball for three hours in hope of getting a ball into the net, which IS VERY BORING! Up with football, down with soccer!!

Danny 07-26-2001 01:36 AM

i meant proper football... but American Football is even worse! it's like Rugby for wimps!

Soccer is like American football for wimps.

hey Rettick, i was talking about
anticapitalism - like in russia ages ago
NOT
socialism - which isn't bad at all

PS. i was actually talking about english football (rugby's also boring)

Danny 07-26-2001 04:34 PM

'anticapitalism' just means against Capitalism - this includes Communists, Socialists, and any reasonable people.

what happened in Russia was called Communism, but it wasn't proper Communism, it was Evil Stalinism, which is completely different. what happened in Russia was just Capitalism by another name.

to distinguish myself from the evils that were done in the name of Communism, i call myself a Socialist, or a Marxist. but we're all still opposed to Capitalism, which is NEVER a good thing.

i'm going to clarify the difference between Stalinism and Marxism. Communism is basically about sharing and cooperation [whereas Capitalism is about selfishness]. now, a common definition of Communism is 'The Belief that the People exist to serve the State'. this is partially true, but it depends on your definition of 'the state'. in Marxism [good communism] the state is defined as the people in it, whereas in Stalinism, the state is defined as its leader. therefore:

Capitalism: The Belief that the People exist to serve Themselves.
Communism: The Belief that the People exist to serve the State.
Marxism: The Belief that the People Exist to serve Each Other.
Socialism: The Belief that the State exists to serve the People.
Stalinism: The Belief that both the State and the People exist to serve the Leader.

clear? no, i didn't think so...

Gluk Schmuck 07-26-2001 04:43 PM

sorry rettick, now i understand, i think...

Danny 07-26-2001 04:55 PM

hey, i'm improving! i have solved four separate arguments today without anyone having to raise their voices...

I have some more things to add to this topic.

Some more of my pet peeves include people on discussion boards who don't have the courtesy to type using capital and lowercase letters where appropriate.

People who post excessively while it is obvious they have nothing to say. It's disrespectful to other members who come here to read interesting and amusing posts. The forums will become a waste of time, causing members not to return. This results in post after post of senselessness, boring junk. Nobody wants to read it.

Danny 11-06-2001 07:48 PM

Oh, sorry Sydney, I didn't realise it irritated you so much... :( I Capitalise properly when I remember, it's just that sometimes it's easier to not do...

I'll be more careful in future, sorry.

You could've just said, "ODDBODD is my pet peeve." ;) ;)

People who drag up old topics for no reason, but then I think just about everyone here hates that...

I didn't actually have you in mind Rettick. You aren't too bad. ;)

Dragadon, I agree. People who drag up old topics for no reason irritate me too. But I have no problem with people bringing up old topics if they have something new to contribute.
