And you calling someone out for being inciteful is slightly less ridiculous than Speed Addiction slamming anybody for dishonesty.

What the fuck are you talking about? I often post shit, and don't comment for two pages. Sometimes I agree with the article, sometimes I don't. Most of the time, I sit back and let others comment a bit first, as I'm here for discussion, not to preach.

Oddly, however, I can count on one of four people stumbling into nearly every thread, and saying something not only stupid, but that which shows they didn't even really pay any attention to the subject.

WTF are you here for then? Yeah. That pisses me off, because I'm here for discussion.



This makes me a bad guy? Whatever. I don't get it.

What's the point of a protest on Wall Street? Do the protestors even have a specific agenda or specific complaint? Or is it just "It's not right for people to make big money while we're stuck working at Panera Bread"

Actually, that's one of the oddities of their "movement", apparently.

Nobody really knows what they're "against" or who they're blaming, and exactly for what. There seems to be no consensus.

What the "story" really is here, is the Police being assholes about people with cameras...again.

As the video I posted stated, the really sad thing is that most cops there are really the nation's finest, and comported themselves remarkably professionally. A few bad apples, some real cowards, were the "star of the show" here. A very sad display of unprofessionalism, and an embarrassment to NYC, IMHO as well.

From what I gather..
The Wall Street protest is:
1% protest
99% "I want to be part of something" (aka I have some free time on my hands and maybe it will be fun....)

Its reminds me of Glee.
"All the mean jocks (bankers) dont like us so we are going to go sing and then everyone will like us."

I thought Glee was like American Idol except for people with slightly more talent.

Man, all jokes aside. Fuck you if you support this kind of thing, fuck you big time.

Thanks, Josh. I posted that shit on page 4, but this thread oddly became about something else for a time. Thanks for posting that again for clarity, in case anyone missed it in the melee.

That's what it seemed like to me...
