No. We're not all one dimensional, relentlessly positive and bland members of The Polyphonic Spree.

808 posts, btw. You da man.
I just don't see why so many people here think of themselves as so avant garde and so ahead of the curve because they take fuckin' mushrooms from time to time and know that jesus isn't real. Stop being so cynical all the time, you might enjoy things a bit more.

Edit:
Being critical of things isn't avant garde.

Most people in here did enjoy it. I said I enjoyed parts of it. We then discussed another series we enjoyed.

Having a basic understanding of science isn't being ahead of the curve. You're insulting a lot of people by saying the curve hasn't reached basic science.

I say you lot because you seem to have a community that I don't often take part in. If anything, its because I don't post often and don't know anyone here by name that I said that, not because I think I'm above anyone.

Edit: and I'm one of a few people posting from the States, which adds to it. Again, I'm hardly an elitist.

I'm all for a good vibe in life but if you can't bitch and moan about stuff on an internet forum (especialy an off topic one) where can you?

I don't know a single person of here's first name.

Edit: Except ben, other ben, dave, kellay, matt chris and a few others.

Look, if you want to sit here and bullshit me that you can't see an obvious elitist sentiment on this forum you can, but you're only fooling yourself.

Elitism is not exclusive to this forum.

A few people made criticisms of the show and then went on to say they enjoyed it, regardless.

I suppose we could all sit back, take everything as it is, never lift a finger, never comment or make observations and just accept everything.

Karen Allen. She was Marion Ravenwood in Raiders of the Lost Ark. She was in Animal House and Kingdom of the Crystal Skull too.

She's gorgeous.

I always thought your user name was a funky name cern had attached to some of their experiments.

That was the part that really got me, having to explain how many planets their were in our solar system and what a day is. :corntard:

Apparently, according to Cox himself, this isn't too far removed from the truth :D
