Whoa, C3PX, when did I say that? And what made you put it as your sig? Not that I'm complaining... just curious.
Ha ha. It was in one of the threads Fink linked to. Now I have to try to remember which one now.
I just thought it was a really funny quote, because so many have mistaken you for a girl due to your avatar.
Oh, of course.
BLATANT BIAS! BLATANT BIAS! BLATANT BIAS!
(I figured ABC whined a lot about you, and the topic became him, so I am trying my shot at that method.)
The problem with Ady's threads are that their page counts tends to range in the hundreds.
Dah!!! I see blatant bias here! You always turn my topics down. Both ABC and Ric Olie got their turn at being the topic, and I am way cooler, way more America, and way more interesting than both of them!
This thread is now about me!
F#%@ you Television's Fink!
Stop the censorship!!! What is the point in belonging to a non-censored forum (about getting the non-altered version of a film released no less) if the members are going to constantly choose to censor themselves.
One Thing to rule them all, One Thing to find them, One Thing to bring them all and in the darkness bind them in the Land of Cupertino, California where the Apples lies. 
Yep.
Yeah, the show is definitely a lot more fun if you can avoid being spoiled.
Don't you love it when a day starts out well and ends perfect? There should be more days like that. I wish there were save states in real life, just save it and reload it whenever you want to experience it again.

This whole thread has a lot of names I haven't heard in a long time.
Er hem...
I think the iPad is completely ridiculous and useless. They have taken everything practical about the iPhone/iTouch and turned it into something very impractical. It is really too bulky to be very portable, and it lacks much of the functionality and freedom you get from an actual laptop. So in the end, what demand does the iPad really meet? What reasons have Apple given us to opt for an iPad over an iTouch or a MacBook? I can't see any at all.
Save your money, go with a relatively inexpensive netbook (or even better for the Apple fan, save your pennies and grab a MacBook). I think the majority of the people buying the iPad will be those very same technology junkies with too much money on their hands who upgrade to the latest generation of iPhone the instant it is released. Most of the population will see the iPad as the cool but impractical and fairly useless piece of technology it is. It is like the tablet PC all over again... yeah, you don't see too many people at the airport with those do you? Because the tried and true laptop is just that much easier and practical to use.
Apple is making feminine hygiene products now? Crazy world.

Wanton Murder is pretty bad in my book. Pretty hard to forgive.
Yeah, but didn't the 'good' Others genocide the Dharma Initiative?
Hey wookieman!
Good to hear from you, pal. I checked out your blog site, you've got some pretty cool stuff on there, I'll be sure to book mark it.
Hope you stick around for a bit, it is always nice to see some old faces around.
Hmm, I hate real football, but I have never tried out fantasy football before. Maybe I'll hop in and give it a go! It is kind of like an RPG right, just with a football involved?
Okay, so, my character is a knight named Umaveg, who is training to be a wizard and rides around on a large fierce black steed, named Porkchop. He has limited magical powers because of his wizard training.
Sir. Umaveg runs out onto the football field on his trusty horse, and is ready for action! Who has the ball?
I had never noticed that plain text editor option before. I thought that old thing was long gone, so happy to see it again! It is like being reunited with an old friend.
That text editor and I are going to have many great times together to come.
I am afraid the Widmore thing may be part of the over all story that they deem was already explained.
He lived on the island, had to leave the island, and has been obsessed with getting back ever since. I have a feeling his little rivalry with Ben which at one point seemed like it might perhaps be the biggest part of the Lost puzzle, will be down played to a fairly simple rivalry between two powerful men.
Maybe I am wrong, I hope I am. With this whole white vs. black thing going on, I have a hard time seeing how they are going to get around to explaining the Widmore thing beyond that.
The problem is this show spent way too much time building up mysteries, making everyone think the tiniest little details were important... and well, I am pretty sure all those folks obsessed with watching every episode a minimum of three times just to make sure they didn't miss any important details (such as a crate of oranges from a Kate flash back which supposedly took place in 1993 bearing the date 2006! *Gasp!* that definitely has to be of some significance to the mythology of the island!) are absolutely going to hate this show and mourn the time they wasted on it when all is over and done.
If they really do want to explain all the little things, like the Bible and glass eye Mr. Eko found, or the reasons the film strips were spliced, etc. then they will probably have to use a BSG style catch-all such as "That was Mr. Smokey manipulating things and trying to lead the castaways to discovering the islands secrets! He let the polar bears out, he made the Hurley bird say 'Hurley', he made the birds come to Walt, he made Walk appear 'Where he was not suppose to'..." Well, at least this show is still a hell of a lot more interesting than BSG was in its last of days (as much as I loved watching long drawn out scenes of Adama balling his eyes out while in a fetal position on his bathroom floor every other episode...).
How can you all be sure that the man in black is evil incarnate? Maybe he really is the good guy who wants to free everyone and Jacob was really the bad guy. After all, all we have really seen of Jacob is he and his followers being manipulative jerks all the time. The men at the temple kidnapped all the children who survived the crash, as well as many of the tail section people, such as Cindy, who now appears to have been brain washed. Also, seems Jacob is in the habit of giving people hard choices and not allowing them to ever leave the island again (such a Doogan not being allowed to leave the island in exchange for his son's life). If you ask me, the "good guys" really are not all that great. If fact, we've seen and heard all of them doing far worse things than we have ever seen Darth Locke or his followers do. Keep in mind, the side you are now calling good have consistently been the bad guys for the majority of the shows run.
In fact, Rousseau was the only character I can think of that may have been under his influence since the beginning of the show, and while she had some mental stability issues, she always seemed far better intentioned than any of the island's other inhabitants, and more helpful and friendly to the castaways to (other than that the time she kidnapped Sayid and later Aaron).
Not saying I am convinced that this is how it is going to pan out, as I am actually feeling mostly certain that Jacob's side is suppose to be the good side. But looking back and putting it all in perspective... these "good guys" are complete bastards, Jacob included.

Necroposting! Necroposting!
Dude, you forgot to sign in as Ric Olie first.
Whoa, whoa, whoa! Are you trying to suggest that Olie is someone's sock? I find that hard to swallow, the guy has such a unique personality. I suppose you'll be making the same accusations about Biff Tanen next. Absurd!
I think OT.com's Lost got cancelled, there is no other explaination for the lack of activity.
I am afraid that new mystery thread about the guy who got Star Wars released on DVD in good quality getting murdered by George Lucas' son is cancelled as well.
I am afraid threads executively produced by VFP are all doomed to meet cancellation in short order. Mostly because he makes them and then stops posting in them.
Pulp Fiction.

Star Trek 2009.
Liked it enough as an action Flick, dissapointed in it as a star trek film.
Still better by far than the Lucash prequels.
Don't defend J.J. Trek, it was shit up one side and down the other, and you know it.
Sky, you sadden me. You're the guy who posted big about boycotting this movie, then you went and saw it in theaters within the first couple of days of its release anyway, and apparently you just watched it again recently. I wouldn't be surprised to find you own it on DVD (recieved as a gift, no doubt).
