First of all, excellent sliver of dialogue, TheBoost. I've got 600 pots o'gold with which to finance you if you wish to expand that into a full length play.

But speaking only for myself, I don't believe everyone else is wrong; I have no way of knowing one way or the other. I believe what I believe because it makes the most sense to me. That's what respect means to me: I don't want people getting in my face about how wrong my worldview is, so I don't get in people's faces and try to persuade them into thinking like me.

I can't believe this spectacular nugget of batshit crazy isn't part of the Zigfried/Ingo catalog:

We are not supposed to judge.  That's Gods job.

According to scripture, God's job is to judge a soul as being worthy of entering the kingdom of heaven. We may not do that. As far as doing the other kind of judging, I do it all the time and proudly. So does everyone, including those who rebuke people for being judgmental.

All I can say that I think a large part of the problems is that too many people have decided to hate because of their religious beliefs.

I think it's the other way around; I think people use/distort religious teaching to lend weight to their prejudices.

EDIT: Taken care of.

I know I would get frustrated if I knew the correct, final answers to Art and everyone kept arguing with me. No wonder he's gone.

Poor CP3S...even years later his typo's aren't safe.

You meant "typos". Of course, I allow for the possibility that you may have done this on purpose,lol.

Early on in my time as an atheist, I went through a "religion is stupid, therefore religious people must be stupid" phase myself. But then it occurred to me that I have about as much concrete proof of God's non-existence as believers have concrete proof of God's existence. Atheists and believers are making an equal leap of faith when they say "There is a (or is no) God".

This is why atheists who bash religion piss me off. They're being just as dogmatic as the assholes who bash atheism.

Oh my God oh my God oh my God! We're all in danger! I've gotta call somebody before we're all killed!

Hello! Jay!? ThankGodyouansweredit'sFrinkyougottahelpus-

I'm sorry. I'll slow down. Anyway, you've got to do something!

It's Frink. I overheard him talking to someone on the phone. He sounded unusually violent and dangerous!

Wait. Say that again.

No, that's not what you said! You said, "as the Emperor of originaltrilogy.net".

You know, you sound funny, like you have influzenza.

AHA! I knew it! You're NOT Jay! Only one poster here corrects misspellings...what have you done with Jay?!?

Let him go or I'm calling ferris209. That is the end of this negotiation.

Oh, just so I'm clear: I wouldn't buy that with xhonzi's money. There's your goddamn proof.

...some guy decides to make a new thread called "You know you're a Star Wars fan when..." when there's this perfectly good one that's only seven months old.

The forum search feature is seriously messed up. I searched the Off Topic forum for the word "CP3S" and I only got sixteen results. That's got to be off by like a hundred at least.

And apparently Frink got himself a cell phone!

5. Hit single, "Ewok Like An Egyptian"
6. Wingman to make you look really good down at the club
7. New acrobat troupe!
8. Make the Star Wars Universe even more awesome

Dude, this spelling problem of yours is getting really bad.

Why were you looking for "stob"? I mean, seriously, who looks for a thing like that? WTF?

EDIT: I found "stob" on page one, but I still want to know why someone would search for such a thing. Or "embarrast".

Could you speak louder please?  I turned my pc speakers all the way up and got nothing but static.

Glad to.

Star Wars: New Animated Series in the Works

Are you ready for Star Wars to get... Squishy?

by Eric Goldman

March 17, 2010 - Star Wars: The Clone Wars is running strong on Cartoon Network, while the long-talked about Star Wars live-action series is still under development – but now it seems a second Star Wars animated series is in the works as well.

IESB reports that George Lucas is in pre-production on the new series, which they say is believed to have the working title of – wait for it -- Squishies.

Keep in mind IESB says this show will be aimed at pre-school to kindergarten aged kids, based off of the Star Wars: Galactic Heroes toy line, which is aimed at the same very young demo. This actually sounds remarkably similar to The Super Hero Squad Show, the very young-skewing animated series centering on Marvel Comics characters and based on the successful Marvel Super Hero Squad toys.

Will adorable booze serving R2D2 and Lil' Slave Leia be a part of the new Star Wars animated series?

As The Clone Wars has continued, it's included increasingly dark material – everything from zombies to Jedi being tortured to death. Considering that less than ideal content for very young viewers, Galactic Heroes (or Squishies) is likely seen as an alternative for the very youngest Star Wars fans – or potential Star Wars fans.

IESB says it's not clear yet what network might air the new Star Wars animated series.

 What will you all think of this?

Sorry to double post, but I had to read it right. "usu." is a convention found in visual reading, but since I was reading aloud, I had to correct it to "usually", otherwise you might not have known what I was talking aboout.

The link is too difficult to hit.  Can you tell me what's there?

 See, that's why I also pasted the completely real content for you. If you want me to read it to you, well, I'm only happy to do so:

Incidentally, I also read to seniors this way. Somehow it's counting towards my community service.

Guys, clicking that link is awful hard work. Why doesn't one of you tell me what's going on?

Then don't, for God's sake, DON'T go into the off-topic section. Nothing to laugh at there.

Time for TV's Frink to play the game show sensation that's been sweeping the nation - WHICH COMMISSIONER ARE YOU?

A)

You are generally clueless in most aspects of life. You've got the inhale-exhale-eat-crap-sleep thing down pretty good, but otherwise you're a giant sack of overmatched. Shortstops are hitting 30 HR's a year and Roger Maris' 36-year old record is shoved down a ten-story stairwell, but to you this is easily attributable to smaller ballparks and lighter bats. The All-Star Game ends in a tie one year and some people complain about it out of all proportion, so in a classic overreaction to an overreaction, you assign home-field advantage in the World Series to the winner of an exhibition game. You added a cable/satellite network long after the NFL and NBA did, but this is par for the course as your sport is consistently well behind the curve in relation to any American pro sports league. In summary, you're a joke, and not a very good one.

B)

Machiavelli has absolutely nothing on you. You could con a con man into buying back the truckload of snow he sold to an Eskimo and leave the con man thinking he suckered you. If you could turn a league full of apathetic drug abusers into America's most beloved and iconic athletes, there's just nothing you can't do. The chances are good that you've been dead for several years, but you've convinced your vital organs otherwise. A referee in your sport admitting to fixing influencing games, and the fallout lasted about as long as the average halftime show. You admitted, albeit jokingly, that a dream Finals matchup would be Lakers versus Lakers and nobody thought it was an inappropriate comment implying something. (Does anyone think Bud Selig could make the same joke involving Yankees versus Yankees without invoking a Congressional subpeona? Me neither) You're great TV, though, because every interview is rife with tension between your "keep it light" one-liners and the interviewer's "this guy's up to something"-toned questions.

C)

Let's get one thing perfectly straight - your players will conduct themselves as professionals. There is no such thing as "or else". When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem resembles a nail - and your particular hammer is the Fine & Suspend Deluxe model: Now with 20% more punishment! When Steve McNair was slain by his girlfriend, you prayed that his eternal soul would recieve a nine-month suspension in purgatory. In fact, I owe the NFL $5,000 for writing this.
