Nothing. I was just suggesting we remember him. That's all.

He was a case of more money than brains. How relevant.

Really? You mean you don't sit on your ass all day? Aren't you just a lighting technician? Isn't that essentially "Sitting on your ass all day, the career!" except for when you have to pretend you're helping the guys actually installing the lights? Don't you hate your job? All of the above questions are invalid because you're a liar.

@ DI: Literally posted within a second of each other, there.

I am the guy in charge of the other guys installing the lights most of the time. And I like my job/study a lot, actually. Thanks for asking.

So you're not actually in charge of anything other than being the guy that relays set up information? Congratulations: You're mediocre as fuck.


How many Netherlanders does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

More than enough, it sounds like.

Havoc 06-15-2010 06:37 PM

Do you even know what you're talking about? I dunno how things work over there but over here the people in charge actually do the work they are in charge of. Silly Americans :')

I read that as: How many Neanderthals does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

Havoc 06-15-2010 06:43 PM

I'm going to bed now people. I think we've never filled up 7 pages of posts this quickly. Pat yourself on the shoulder everyone!

Thanks for laughs!

Thank God, he's gone.

By the way.

Never has a thread been more appropriately titled in the history of these forums. I'm gonna try and sum up my reaction to the various posters.

Havoc: Initially brought up the topic of entrapment of pederasts who have not yet committed any crime. An interesting topic, which no-one actually discussed because they just assumed he was defending sex offenders. Later on, he brings up some interesting philosophical questions about maturity and appropriate ages to have sex when it's not an abusive relationship. Once again, no-one actually responds to this because they just assumed he was advocating sex offenders.

scrabface: Also a fascinating topic; how should we deal with people whose brains are wired up to be attracted to someone underage? It's a difficult topic and one that no-one actually responded too because it was more entertaining to belittle him.

OANST: Suffers a knee-jerk reaction to the topic of paedophila and seems to be incapable of actually reading and comprehending anyone else's post without the red mist of anger dropping down. Rather than demanding that Havoc stop posting, I would think it more appropriate if OANST stopped reading.

Moxco: Seriously... what the fuck, dude?

Everyone else: Needs to grow a brain and the ability to discuss a difficult issue maturely. Also needs to READ everyone elsels posts and UNDERSTAND the point they're trying to make, rather than the point that they've already assumed they would make.

I'm not sure whether to leave this thread open, given that it's descended to the level of personal attack. I'll leave it open for now but any more posts that insult other members will receive infractions.

moxco 06-15-2010 08:04 PM

I’m sorry for being a prick everyone. I was bored and felt like arguing even if I wasn't arguing my own opinion.

No, you need to grow a brain!

Disgruntled Intern 06-15-2010 08:28 PM

And a moustache!

Nate 06-15-2010 08:40 PM

I have both, thanks.

I know i'm a bit late, but I'M 14, YOU SICK FUCK.

I agree whole-heartidly with Nate's summary of this thread. I think Havoc's posts were misinterpreted although the points he made where hard to pick out at first, he did make some good points. I think it's a shame this thread just turned into namecalling/Yur famleh, because it could have become quite an interesting discussion.

moxco 06-16-2010 02:02 AM

I would like to apologise to OANST. I never tried to personally attack him (or his family for that matter).

Let us just go through this again;
:

No matter what your daughters role was in all of it? In a few years she'll be like 15 and has an 18 year old boyfriend. IMO that's an age difference (for a relationship at least) that's acceptable. You catch them having sex, what happens next?
While reading this I neither had OANST nor his daughter in mind. I thought of the daughter as a purely hypothetical character, created for nothing else but an example scenario.

Of course after responding my comment would have looked a lot worse than intended. If I had known how it would have appeared I wouldn't have wrote it.

I hope you can understand what I am trying to get across.

OANST 06-16-2010 07:16 AM

Fair enough.


Nate: I fully understood and responded to his arguments multiple times. Never once did I ignore what he was saying. What I was saying is that as the person who is attracted to young girls he is not in an objective position to decide which ones are too young and which aren't. On multiple occasions in this thread I admitted that no one matures at a set rate, and it's impossible to say at what age an individual will be ready.

Soooo, to keep predatory adults from damaging those who aren't ready we are going to have an age of consent. You break it, there will be repercussions. And any adult who actually tries to have sex with a young girl is such a disgusting creature that even if it doesn't damage this particular individual they still deserve the repercussions.

In regards to Scrabface: Wrong again, Nate. I responded to him multiple times. I answered his question multiple times. It wasn't until the third time that he asked the question that I asked him to stop changing the subject, especially since he was already answered.

Also, while I did eventually degenerate into insults, I was attempting to discuss it rationally until Moxco's comment, at which point I started bleeding from my ears. Havoc's insistence that I watch what I say to him made me lose my sanity. Yes, I initially attempted to stop Havoc before it even started (knowing that the conversation wouldn't work on any coherent level for long), but I made an attempt afterwards to discuss it.

Disgruntled Intern 06-16-2010 10:46 AM

I thought I did a decent job of trying to rationalize with Havoc for a while. It just gets hard.

shaman 06-16-2010 01:45 PM

Sweet fagwankery i just read the entire thread.

Havoc 06-16-2010 02:21 PM

Thank you for reading the thread, Shaman. But our princes is in another castle.

shaman 06-16-2010 02:23 PM

How old is she?

Havoc 06-16-2010 03:15 PM

You will find out when you find her.

Dun Dun DUN!

MeechMunchie 06-17-2010 10:59 AM

Hooray, we're all chums again. Luckily, I was away from my computer for a day we ended up with 7 pages of shouting. Big fat Reset button:

A person over the Age of Consent is intending to have sex with someone under it, and vice versa. We're all in agreement that these situations will likely have negative consequences. Where do the problems with these situations lie? What can be done about them?

OANST 06-17-2010 11:03 AM

FUCK YOU, ASSHOLE.

Josh 06-17-2010 11:22 AM

OANSTs gone gay and mad; he's yelling at Meech's ass.

Wings of Fire 06-17-2010 12:03 PM

And Josh has no idea how he buggered Meech's ass up.

Leto 06-17-2010 09:53 PM

How can this thread still be open?

When other amazing threads such as mine get closed, having more content and room for discussion? May as well rebirth that "What are you listening to?" thread. Or perhaps a "What emoticon correlates to your IRL mood ATM" thread.

Disgruntled Intern 06-18-2010 12:53 AM

"You closed my thread. WAH!"

"You didn't close their thread. WAH!"

You're one of the few non-dumb dumbs that show up from time to time. Post something of a higher quality.

Shit would have sifted down to the bottom of the page, but you decided to bump it back to the top simply because it wasn't closed. And because the mods are in the habit of giving baby leto what baby leto want, it probably will be.

You're not fun anymore.
