Tesco. What an arsehole of a company. 30% of the U.K. market? What do they seriously need that for, in the name of sanity? I mean, it's really great that people can now get all their food by conveniently driving further than is to walk to the local shops, but when the local shops are outcompeted by Tesco's soulless, heartless monopoly it makes you want to move into a ditch and survive off slurry.

People who diss Tesco. I'm not a fan or anything, but if so many people hate it (and they do) then there is an easy way to stop its growth: stop shopping there. Easy.

yeah, that pushing back of Zelda pisses me off too,
O-zone isn't a band anymore
uh...people who hate classic games, and call games from the NES and SNES, sucky games

they have no ****ing soul

Sekto Springs 04-30-2006 09:04 AM

O-Zone sucks in my opinion.
The only reason they got a leg up is because everyone thought that fat bastard lip-syncing one of their songs was totally f*cking uber.

The more I listened to them, the more it became apparent that I was just indulging in the Romanian N-Sync.

Wil 04-30-2006 12:42 PM

I don't shop with Tesco. Criticism denied.

Good job on not reading any of my following posts.

You’ve only given one more post on this subject: “People berate Bush because he's an idiot, but they don't actually know why he's an idiot. I hate Bush as much as the next guy, don't get me wrong, but at least I can give several reasons why.”

And that changes what I said how? So – we can’t call Bush an idiot until we know why he’s an idiot? That’s some pretty flimsy logic you got yourself there. Tsk. *rolls eyes*

He's mad because you basically paraphrased his previous post while trying to make him look stupid at the same time.

That's what pisses me off.

Mutual Friend 04-30-2006 06:37 PM

And that's quite a skill, I feel! :)

Anyway - my original post did contain a bit of repetition in an effort to show that what he said was stupid. But hey ho.

You all do it for the same reason you bash Bush, because everyone else does it.

There's your reason. It's not 'flimsy logic' and it's not stupid. Blatantly hating something without justification is just pointless angst, or is that too 'outside-the-box' for you?

So explain to me why you had to follow up with a patronizing post. Were you getting at something poignant or are you just looking for outlets to inflate your balls?

What?! Of course that's flimsy logic! Deary me. So - all those millions of people around the world who slate Bush purely do it off the back of one another? I could just as easily say that you're saying what you're saying merely to be one of those irritating people who always go against popular opinion to show how cool and what an independent thinker they are. I'm not saying you are, but it's the same idea.

I loathe (not hate) Bush for very good reasons, and it's interesting that you seem to think that your reasons are superior to everybody else’s who are simply following the flock and have no decent motivation. How patronising! Which leads me nicely to:

I'm being patronising because you are obviously doing exactly the same. Telling me I think what I think for a) bad reasoning and b) to simply go along with current opinion. The 'something poignant' is just that your point is ridiculous. While, obviously, there are some who rip on Bush because it soundz kool, most, I think you'll find, do not. How are my reasons wrong or incorrect? They're not, you're just being pompous.

I'm listening to Billy Jean right now... Hope that pisses you off. :D

First of all, I really don't think you have much justification to be accusing people's ideas 'flimsy logic' and people pompous, you have only been on this forum a few days, so you have little or no jstification to be accusing people of being 'pompous.'

Second of all, how do you your idea isn't flimsy logic? Sekto Springs could be correct in his judgement and he is correct in many of the cases that I have seen. You are only making yourself pompous by accusing others of it when you have little knowledge of them to begin with.

OANST 05-01-2006 12:00 PM

I have to say that you aren't making very many mutual friends in here. People are going to start flaming pretty soon. And then I'll have to step in. AND FLAME YOU HARDER THAN YOU'VE EVER BEEN FLAMED BEFORE. In case anyone was wondering, I'm the new Dino.

used:) 05-01-2006 12:03 PM

I thought I was the neo Dino? Cuz you guys know, I'm just SUCH a big fan of him, seriously, I maturbate to his posts all the time.

OANST 05-01-2006 12:12 PM

He does. I saw him. It was sexy.

T-nex 05-01-2006 12:26 PM

oy... Why must thou bash Dino? -_- He's history. Let's think of the future.... ^_^ Where we all masturbate to each other's posts.

used:) 05-01-2006 12:30 PM

I wasn't bashing Dino, I was bashing the people who accuse me of "being in love with him."

T-nex 05-01-2006 12:47 PM

Just ignore their comments ^_^ Or acuse them for being in love with Dino too then :p

OANST 05-01-2006 12:53 PM

I accuse you of being in love with cats. And I can prove it! I looked at your banner. Dispute that evidence.

Don't be ridiculous. I am quite a pompous person on occasion, especially when dealing with pompous people! I have every justification - I didn't say he was a pompous person, I said he was being pompous, which can perfectly be judged from the comments he has posted. You're way off track here.

I know my logic isn't flimsy - again - in this instance as it very obviously isn't. He said my reasoning was dodgy or whatever (really using shorthand now) without saying why that was the case and simply banged on with how HIS judgement was superior. How am I wrong? You just don't like the fact I'm new and calling his cards. How dare I?! etc

You just have to be careful Mutual Friend; people here are immediately suspicious if someone new shows up, is pompous and seems to have a strangely accurate understanding on how the forums work. Unfortunately we've seen so many multis over the years that people are perhaps becoming far too vigilant in watching out for a new one.

Anyway, try and build a rapport with people here before becoming objectionable. It helps avoid controversy.

He's obviously a multi of max the mug and lots of other members :-/ lol.... At least he has the same IP as Max...

Hmm... Suspicion suspicion...

Mutual Friend 05-02-2006 07:00 AM

Err... we don't have the same IP address. Well, we might but it sounds very impossible since this character hasn't been near my computer... or has he?


No, no he hasn't.





Or HAS he?

Bullet Magnet 05-02-2006 10:14 AM

I agree with nate. I've learnt the hard way what happens when you are objectionable, even by accident. If the thread demands a scientific answer let met answer scientifically! Some of the replies to them annoy me.

If you must bash a president, then make it President Mugabe. Bush is a bad president because he's dim. Mugabe's a bad president because he's evil. He's like all the villains of Oddworld rolled up, squeezed into human form and with all the humour forcibly extracted via colonic irrigation.

looney-bin 05-02-2006 11:27 AM

PETA. I f*cking hate them! "Oh we don't like meat or products that come from them so we'll just force people into our way of thinking and we'll also start blowing up places." These people need to die of lack of Protein or more ironicly, get mowed down by a truck with a dog at the wheel. Also, they believe milking cows and trimming sheep is wrong, which is stupid considering they'd probubly die if we didn't milk or sheer them. Anyone else fed up of PETA?

Perhaps there should be an amendment that says that no republican government can start or willingly participate in a war. This back to all of America's recent wars, and the government in power at the time.

What a pig's ear...
