@luckster, life Lift are basically Quest bars made by VPX.

And cinnamon quest isn't nearly the best one. Your taste buds better be peppered. Just buy them here, or you can get a sample pack straight from Quest. CCCD and Apple Pie usually rank the top of people's lists, including mine.

[cunfewzed]

i dont find you likable at all.
not srs

He hasn't show you his crotch yet.

Looking for a deal on 5lbs of whey.

Taste>cost, but i dont want to be paying GNC's prices for GNC flavor. Anyone know of any deals?

@Flexish, IE9/opera user here...i dont get stretch nothing anymore. It went away in one of the updates they did last year on BB.com...just surprised, i have not heard of anyone complain about it since then.

syntha 6 on bb.com so yum!

I'm black. Nothing "racist" surprises me to that extent BUT that said, "surprise" meaning that even something as small as THIS is a problem. It's more idiotic. Not sure why you're minimizing the situation by bringing in the trials and tribulations of president.

Once again, aware. But that's like saying well "such and such situation on the grand scale of things remains small in comparison" By comparison, to the crap the president gets, of course. We aren't discussing politics, were discussing idiots and a movie, thousands of fans in a community as I said, I've been a part of, and some of those idiots have been people in my own life. That's like saying "well, I'm sure the issue you have with idiots in your gym bogarding the benches when you're trying to lift is small when you compare it Isreal, Palestine and the land conflict" to prove a point.

It doesn't matter the "amount" in comparison to the any situation you're bringing in. The fact is, it's a situation that matters to me, full stop.

Where I am going with this is if you, in the age of the internet, where any idiot can and will tweet his or her inane opinion on something, and you elect to get butt-hurt by it, you are doing that because you WANT to get butt hurt.

The reality of the situation is that a handful of semi-retards are upset that a character in their favorite copy-cat book, translated to the big-screen, wasn't a member of their favorite race as they had hoped or expected, and felt the need to express their outrage. Why would anybody give a single, flying f*ck about what these people say? Are they hitting the streets and protesting?

The only reason this is a big deal is because a) idiots exist and this is the internet age, b) news/gossip people need to MANUFACTURE news, making crap like this 10,000X bigger deal than it really is seriously, c) people like you and serp apparently like reading things that piss you off yet are entirely irrelevant to the real world, so you read it and run with it.

Seriously, what can you do to prevent this? Nothing! They are utilizing their god-given right to express themselves as idiots.

I would have no problem finding and posting THOUSANDS of articles/blogs/"news" that would offend me (right down my street there was a church-sign advertising to little kids that they are going to hell), piss me off to no end, or contradict my strongly-held beliefs, and even "hurt" my feelings.

What part of "I've lost friendships with people I THOUGHT I was close to because of their OWN apparent racist thoughts brought out because of this movie" don't you bloody well understand? Yes it is RELEVENT to the real world. I won't even begin to dissect Serp and what makes him tick. That's another conversation that HE can answer himself because I surely can't nor will I even pretend to.

I made one statement about the racism when I mentioned the movie. Someone INQUIRED about it. I posted the article. It started conversation. The end. Reading things to "piss me off" is worlds different than being directly involved. In your myopic desire to prove a point, you overlooked that crucial stated tidbit of information.

[cunfewzed]

I would like to interject that there's finally argument I'm not in the middle of!

Carry on.....

[drewams]

[Pause argument.]

He hasn't show you his crotch yet.

No. Just no.


[/Pause argument]

[Flexish]

No worries. I have no desire to either. He apparently has me and my intention, though something was ASKED for and though as I said, was more personal beyond a*holes on the internet, *COMPLETELY* figured out. I'll leave him to his arm chair dissections.

Didn't realize that part of the appetite suppressing power of EC is due to caffeine. Ran out of pills and only took E this morning....hungry as fawk! Ended up having to bust out the coffee maker to set things straight.

[matman1813]

Can I get cliffs on why jimmies are rustling so hard?

Yep, I've experienced this first hand as well.

On the people going batsh*t over inconsequential bs, didnt they so that with Heimdol on the Thor movie as well?

[Flexish]

racial thing...

Is that seriously all you were able to grasp from the entire thing? That its "about race?"

The conversation would be the same if I said "man, I can't believe people got mad this person cast was American" and someone interjecting their opinion that I shouldn't be offended because what people say about Americans on the Internet when in reality, it goes beyond that.(Im not American, just using that as an example)

The subject of "race" is just the backdrop of this conversation. ANY topic inserted in lieu of would be relevant. Of course it gets a hint of "touchiness" because of who *I* am. Don't big it up to be more dire than it is.

honestly i havent been reading all the back and forth. but one of your first posts said, "I'm Black..."

so you'll have to excuse my assumptions.

[matman1813]

It all seems rather petty.

Guilty, but not sorry. It helps LF grow closer...

I obviously don't know the history of you and your ex-close-friends but in an attempt to be objective: your close friends insulted who you are; you took offense; end of of friendship.

You should be lucky to have found out their myopic views. Cutting out such friends is just as important as finding good friends.

[NitrogenWidget]

He hasn't show you his crotch yet.

You think my first avi is cut off where it is coincidentally?

[MrM27]

She's black???? Man I didn't notice.












See I'm not racist.

LOL!
I did happen to notice he didn't quite look like your typical Norseman but I had no idea people had a problem.

I do remember casting DB Sweeney in the Spawn movie created a chit-storm however.

[Flexish]

B]honestly i havent been reading all the back and forth. [/B]but one of your first posts said, "I'm Black..."

And that's the error that was pretty much made here, selective reading. Taking conversation out of context changes the entire meaning. Obviously if that's your focus (which was said within reason to a response from something HE said) then yes, you're not going to understand what I'm talking about. It's honestly better to get all sides of the story before making assumptions. Out of the ENTIRE exchange, you find those two words as your deciding factor. Nice.

Me stating that had nothing to do with what you asked, nor was it wasn't directed to you. And yes it was sad, but I feel the same. It's amazing how one simple statement and question leads to a big ball of bullchit.

no, not just those 2 words. your whole sentence

I'm black. Nothing "racist" surprises me to that extent

edit: and also, this whole exchange started by talking about the outrage of the Hunger Games using all black actors for one of the districts or whatever. so please dont act like it was never an issue

[Flexish]

no, not just those 2 words. your whole sentence

Once again, did you even read the entire exchange? No. You admittedly didn't.
The fact remains, if the topic was something else, it would have gone the same way since the basis of the arguement was me getting "Upset over what people said on the Internet" when in reality it went beyond that.

Maybe he, like me, read a sentence or two got bored and thought TL;DR. Because all I gathered was that you got your jimmies rustled because a book that got made into a film helped you discover your friends super secret racism...

But that's why I asked for cliffs.

I see. So ITT, the chat thread, we only comment on things that were directed towards us.

It's clearly not bull*hit if it affects you this much.

Me making a statement that:

Down to the last 30 minuses of the hunger games. I can't believe the racial controversy for this movie."

Equals rustled? Right. Ok, then someone asked why and I posted

Even though the majority of the inhabitants if district 11 were basically described as being black, dark brown skin and eyes and hair.
well : *llink*

Nope, not rustled. It wasnt until SOMEONE made the assumption that I "intentionally read things to piss myself off that have nothing to do with me" that I got upset because he clearly overlooked that the situation had personal ties to it.

Slow your gears. I SAID THAT because of your prior statement about admitting to be the one to ask about it AND then saying you didn't know the history of my friends when you did, so the above statement WASNT directed toward you. No. It had nothing to do with you asking the initial inquiry about the movie and everything past that point was directed to the person I was arguing with.
Bullchit because one line and one inquiry obviously lead to this. That's what I mean.

You'd already been going on about losing friends and whatnot before CSB said anything...
