arrrrrghhh! I just can't help myself, i have to post one more thing:
Keyser Soze wrote:
Oh yea of little faith and imagination. If only you knew who I really was and the circles I mix in. Then you would eat your words. I am a reasonably successful musician whose music you have no doubt heard. But you most probably won't believe that and quite frankly I don't care. I will never reveal who I really am just to prove anything to anyone here. It makes no impact or difference to me what people here think of me as KEYSER SOZE.

I enjoy having this alter-ego and notoriety on this forum. We all have an element of the "dark side" in us and being KEYSER SOZE on this forum allows me to have that and be the prick that I would like to be sometimes but can't be in real life when I have to interact with real people and get things done. But seeing a lot of you here are quite a touchy bunch and overestimate your self importance, I get a kick out of being this masked marauder out to terrorise the stupid and inane. It is wonderful therapy. I see it purely as a virtual punching bag to release a bit of pent up stress and nothing more.
Anyway, I won't be able to contribute for a while here as I have a deadline to meet for a film score I am working on. I am sure that will please many of you.

Let me finally say, and I don't like rubbing it in, but will anyway. I am living the dream that a lot of you strive for and will probably never reach. I'll get on with my film score and the rest of you can get back to metephorically stacking shelves at your local supermarket. That, by the way, is KEYSER SOZE speaking. In my mild mannered Clark Kent persona, I would never say that to anyone. I would find it arrogant. I realise how lucky I am to be doing what I do.

Until my next installment, bye all. But I'll be back.

isn't this you in your own words?


Adonis, i've never called you anything rude, and if i have, you surely deserved it. I don't like a lot of things about you, but i respect you because you keep it real. You say what's on your mind and are unashamed. I might find you to be a puerile misogynist who doesn't give a shit about the world outside of your bubble, but i still have a basic level of respect for you.

I am not really focusing on post counts. It wrote that really to make a point about the definition of what makes someone a casual poster.

Yeah. What's wrong with that?

I find it funny that you have been wasting your time hunting that post down.
But what does it prove?

As you can see, I am not rude or abusive to anyone.
Keaton always said, "I don't believe in God, but I'm afraid of him." Well I believe in God, and the only thing that scares me is Keyser Soze.

well, if you don't see how that's rude and abusive, that's your problem.



i didn't have to spend more than a minute to hunt it down, i read this forum almost everyday at waork and clearly remember that one. There's surely even worse behaviour i could dig up of yours if i were so motivated but why bother? I mean, you clearly admidt in that post that you're only here to use the forum as a virtual punching bag and act like a prick.



as far as casual posting goes, i don't think an average of a bit less than 2 posts a day is so bad. I'm just having a good time avoiding work...



again @ adonis, y'know, i thought some more about what you said and i have to tell you that i think you're a little off base. I certainly have called people "stupid" "fuckwits" or worse, but i have *never* used a racial slur or anything like that. And frankly, i don't appreciate you using slurs refering to Jews.

Pancakes and Breakfast sausage links

the links were fine

the pancakes, I put a little too much water in the batter mix and they came out kind of thin - then I accidentally smothered them in syrup, so they were hella sweet

it was good - but the cakes were too thin and the excess syrup really was way to much sugar


but that was breakfast - lunch is fast approaching - I'll have

left over chicken cooked on the grill with garlic wild rice and some salad with balsamic

dinner - maybe I'll grill up a rib-eye with a baked potatoe and a corn on the cob (grilled, smoothered in butter, wrapped in tin foil)

throw in some of those Klondike Oreo Ice Cream sands and damn lifes good

Isn't it weird how the first pancake always turns out a mess? Maybe the pan isn't hot enough/too oily... I dunno. But I always sacrifice the first one by eating it myself while the second one is cooking to a much higher standard.

Hey Adonis - you keep treating yourself to good food like that and keep smiling... amazing how some real food can make you feel so happy. :) :)

It's a problem when one believes what they "don't do" as some kind of positive attribute. Lame.

And why do people that don't care that much, care so much? Lamer.

It's also very easy to be a polite poncy bitch. I'll take a knowledgeable asshole any day.

.lm.
you're right - but I wasn't just referring to just you in the last statement I made about people being mean to each other and calling them names - for instance, I don't think I've ever read the word "cunt" under your handle

I haven't used the jew term in a derogatory way in a looooooooong time btw - and when I did it wasn't meant to harm, but to make some people laugh

I try to stay out of the back and forth name calling, fact finding, google searching flame wars that rise up every now and then

I'd like to believe I rarely if ever call people names and any beef (actual real beef) I try to handle via private message

there's some a o k people round here and there's some not so cool people - do i judge (maybe a little) but I don't do it publically

You had broccoli for breakfast?

We just had a conversation the other night over pizza what people eat for breakfast

a lot of Asian cultures have rsome form of rice for breakfast

another culture actually eats pasta for breakfast

we also decided breakfast was the only meal you could eat at anytime during the day

but you can't have like say, Thai food for breakfast - 5 star spicey noodle

or Pho <-- well you could if you were hung over

well, i'm not sure where i am on your list kk, but i can only hope for at least one check in the knowledable asshole column. I know for sure i am an asshole, not sure how knowledeable though. I think more than average when it comes to electronic music....




@ adonis, yeah man, i hear you. Like i said, i actually do respect you even though we don't exactly vibe. And i really appreciate that you don't take shit super seriously. That's certainly one of my faults every now and then.

anyway, whatever, i just started responding to this thread because i feel really strongly about people who come here *only* to cause trouble. I have no problem dealing with folks who can be jerks but also have legit stuff to say.... Anyway, this place has been plagued by these types of trolls for a long time and it sucks. a good ol fashioned ip ban for those folks would be nice.

yeah, I have broccoli every morning without fail. And not over steamed, so kinda lightly steamed and still has a bit of snap to it. I'm kinda a health nerd so i get the healthy breakfast out of the way so I can screw up the evening. Dark green veggies will make you right. Also 5 grams of fish oil everyday and protein at every meal, bla bla, among others.



lm, you're cool by me and I like your stance on this topic. KS just wants to scrap and game some semantics, you're just the ticket.

nah, creepy would be wasting my time looking for it. Sue me for remembering, you want to voice your opinions on taste, whats right & wrong in forum etiquette etc - yet you're the one ableton needed to censor.
