i can't speak for anyone else here, and i won't presume your intelligence, dragonlord, just like you cannot presume someone else's intelligence from the posts they make on a message board. am i unintelligent because i talk jokingly about wanking it every now and then? hell no. in fact, i am very interested in academics (espescially literature, philosophy, and history), i am constantly reading, i just spent 6 weeks in an elite academic program (which is very tough to get in, might i add), i'm taking all AP courses this year, high class rank, high SAT, going to the university of north carolina next year, blah blah blah blah blah. does any of that mean anything here? no. THIS IS A PLACE TO RELAX. i feel NO NEED to "show off" any intelligence in every post i make; frankly, what you guys think of me is not exactly a high priority. i don't want to be pretensious here and show off my knowledge. someone who feels the need to act as intelligent as possible on a message board REALLY needs to get their priorities straight and maybe get a blowjob every once and a while. true, i am sometimes "turned off" by some of the innocuous, "no-brainer" posts that sometimes surface, but i sure as hell don't take the time to bitch about them. i know it is all in good fun. if you want to talk 'intelligent', dragonlord, MAKE AN ACTUAL POST instead of bitching about the ones that are already here. it's like someone who complains about an elected official, yet never took place in voting. make a post, and i will be the first one there to talk serious with you, if that is what you want. i guarantee you will find much more 'intelligence' than you, in your narrow mind, would have never thought possible from this group you are so quick to look down upon. frankly, i think you are bullshitting yourself when you think that these people are unintelligent based on the posts they make. you may just see the 'whack off' threads and posts about each others' mothers, but, if you looked deeper, you would find much more going on. come on over to the the 'top 5 favorite books' thread i started, some of us guys have a nice philosophical discussion going on, you may want to join in. if not, then fine; you can make some more posts about how everyone here is stupid and not up to par (when, like i said before, you put too much faith in yourself if you think you can judge the brains of many people YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW). you know what they say about assuming things. We're just being social, we are getting along , and we are having fun. one of oscar wilde's characters once said that "being natural is simply a pose, and the most irritating pose i know." well, if that is true, then i could see why we are so irritating to you, dragonlord. but do we give a shit? i believe i speak for all of us "newbies" you are so quick to judge when i say HELL FUCKING NO!!! get a life; this pointless, judgemental, petty bullshit is not going anywhere. so think of this as my last "argument", the fountainhead of my point of view. reference it when you feel the need to discern my opinion. when it comes to this topic, i am finished. as earlier stated, make a post and we will talk smart about WHATEVER YOU WANT. just quit the bitching, it is getting tremendously old already and it is past the time that you grew out of your nostalgia for the good ole days and started actually contributing to the present board without all of your senseless whining. that is all.
