Right, so who can we bomb to stop this happening again? Pakistan or Walthamstow?

...Yeah, as long as people preface their posts with [OT] or (Off Topic) or ***POLITICAL*** then at least folks like Cryptic UK can choose to not read.

And thanks for the big ups. No, I'm never ready for the next round, I'm starting to find Internet debate about as good an expenditure of time as loudly banging two tin pots together in a small concrete room - repetitive, strenuous, and prone to give you a headache.

exactly true

it's kind of self indulgent too - like a kind of desensitised, hunched over a computer, lazy form of confession

those of us who do fuck all but have a bit of a conscience about it come and post on the ableton forum - thereby continuing to do fuck all but making ourselves feel the tiniest fraction of a bit better about doing nothing about anything

this is why I've been kind of avoiding the political threads since that Lebanon one because I realise I know fuck all about it and do fuck all to help, and posting here certainly doesnt improve either of those states of being

Well, I'm usually on the other side of the fence to you guys, but if we all agreed, there's be nothing to talk about. And Rob was flying the banner alone on the last WTC post. Does he sleep?

You may be right, no point endlessly repeating what's already been said. And if I wanted to piss you off, I'd say that groove quantasising was for people who can't be bothered to program properly.

Only kidding about Pakistan, but I'd be up for taking out walthamstow.

The WTC issue is one that I usually read but don't comment on. I find that I don't know enough to contribute anything intelligent on it, so I stay on receive mode. Robo seems to have it in hand. But honestly, I'm a fence sitter on that issue for now.

Ooh, something wrong with the quoting on the last one, was Breqs that said that bit. Not mad enough to have a conversation with myself just yet..

Don't hate on other people because they are of another race/nationality/species....

I don't hate anybody, unless they really piss me off or something.

My point is.... it doesn't make much sense to stop my grandmother from taking her pepto-bismol on the plane. But it does make sense to take a second look at some guy named Abu with a student visa. Sorry if that offends any of you.... but it's a simple fact that we are being threatened by islamic terrorists.

If I was a muslim, and I was being searched more closely than the old white lady next to me in line at the metal detector.... frankly, I wouldn't get all riled up. I would understand. Yeah, stereotypes suck.... but the lives and safety of people has to take priority over hurting some people's feelings.

I've gotta say, I hate racists as much as you hate arabs. If I got the chance I'd invade racists countries and bomb the fuc* out of them all, just like you bomb the fuc* out of arabs.
Lets not forget why a mid 20's male arab is more likely a threat (You Fuc*ed their shi* up big style, bombed their children and Fuc*ed their mother)
But then you probably hate all of them arabs, I mean they are all terrorists aren't they.
So how come you're not a racist? You just said the same thing, except you're wringing your hands and making excuses for it.
never heard of sarcasm?
I guess not...

Sorry, but I don't read the section that I made bold as sarcasm. Only the last sentence. It's funny that you say that, as it wasn't your quote.

I was waiting and waiting for DJAdonis to pick up on my South Park reference.....

Is it me, or does the guy in the picture look like a midget? Or is it a dwarf? I can never tell. Anyways, besides your friendly neighborhood arab, the guys at security should be on the lookout for any midgets (or is it dwarfs) with inflatable airplanes in their luggage! (<--- I don't think this is even close to PC, but it sure highlights the irony) And now back to your regularly scheduled progamming.

Stinky I think you're responding to the so-called "Hobbit Conditioning". Any hairline like that seen in the 20th century causes the human eye to percieve the subject as a hobbit. Little understood phenomena.

Well, you must be the expert, coming from NZ, so i'll take your word for it..

ps, i bet you guys never had an incling before the LOTR movies, that you would become as synonymous with Hobbits, as the Irish are to Leprechauns

No, but I could represent my country in DVD Extras trivia.
And I was in a crowd of 10,000 cricket fans that did Orc chanting for Two Towers. That was wicked fun.

oh yahh, i've done voicework with Peter Jackson yaaah...

Well, to be fair, it was a Brit-grown plot, right? Seems like they'd be fairly involved in the thwarting.
