They're your fault if you take part in them. If you argue with a moron about Alexander the Great in a thread that has nothing to do with Alexander the Great, YOU are derailing the thread.

If Princess Kate IS a troll, she's the most successful troll in the history of this board, as so many of you can't help but take that bait again and again and again.

(applause)

Seriously, guys: are these folks that hard to ignore? In the Princess Kate case, it's like she's chosen an avatar that will aid you in cruising by her posts.

In my limited exposure to her, (s)he seems so willfully ignorant on a lot of things that it seems impossible NOT to ignore her. Why does this have to become a thread topic at least once a month?

The Raiders sequels get worse as they go along. Let's hope Cyrstal Skull is the last we'll see of Indiana Jones.

If anything, I think the pending adaptation of UNCHARTED: DRAKE'S FORTUNE will take the crown once held by Indy and run with it. The game does a great job of feeling adventurous and fun without being grating, and if they can translate that tone to the big screen, it'll do gangbusters.

If I talk about Owen/Aniston tour de force Derailed in a thread about derails, am I derailing? And if this takes place in a forest, does anyone hear it? With one hand clapping?

Alexander the Great liked it in the poop-hole, and yet conquered half of Asia. Make your own deductions.

I think the Indy series jumped the shark when they jumped out of that airplane on a raft.

I have never understood the problem with that stunt. Since it appears to have been done practically, clearly it is possible, yes? If it was NOT done practically, its a flawless effect and does not take me out of the reality of the film for one second, much less cause the entire series to "jump the shark".

Alexander appreciated rice, tea, spices and was gay.

Watch Mythbusters. They tried to recreate it (and couldn't)

Ah ok. Well I did not think it was done with people, I thought it was done practically with like under weight life sized dolls. It still looks real to me in the context of the film, and since I am not planning on using it as my prefered emergency method to de-plane, thats all that matters

I found Kate's response to be pretty clever, actually.

Is it possible to go "meta" without being self-aware? I think we have our answer in this thread.
post #21 of 54

Clever on purpose, or clever on accident... that's the question now, isn't it?
post #22 of 54

There's nothing clever in this thread. Nothing.
post #23 of 54

I really don't want to answer that.

But after this thread, I completely agree with devincf about P.K.

I should probably admit at this point that I'm Princess Kate. It was a feeble attempt at attention-getting, and I'm afraid it's gotten a little out of hand. I may continue to post as my alter-ego, but I encourage you to ignore those posts from here on out, as I'm only letting off steam.

Your friend,
DaveB

Or is Princess the reality and DaveB the fiction?!? Do you even know anymore?

I'd probably be getting more out of this thread if I didn't have everyone but Princess Kate on my ignore list.

Don't worry, Dave. It was always really obvious.

Always.

I made a pie chart. I'm not sure it's that helpful, however.

Honestly, hon - if you were married to PK, I think your conversations would be a lot... shorter, let's just say.

Edit: Wow! He really did make a pie chart!

Okay, in this pie chart it shows that Canadians between the ages of 14 and 19 prefer rap to all other types of music combined. I can send you a pamphlet if you'd like.

Wait...I thought PK was Fleed.

And there's no WAY you're going to get me to consider that FLEED is DaveB.

Unless DaveB is Swedish Miyagi. Because that would be cool.

I'm not Fleed, but I edit his posts for him. You'd be surprised what I'm censoring with all of those ellipses.

Bet I'm fooling you with all of those denials, huh? Like I said, just ignore those PrincessKate comments. Merely blowing off steam. Total gibberish.

Congrats, Mattioli - your pie chart bumped photos of the old Penn Station from my desktop. But I think Dave's going to have to up his meds. This is getting sad.
