You're entitled to think of it as a non issue for yourself but you shouldn't judge those of us that actually see it as one..albeit a minor one. I don't lose sleep over it but ya, I do get a little hot under the collar when it's brought up.


Ok they are not all morons just most of them. So chances are the 2 people in the ring beating the F out of each other are morons. Just watch the show I wouldn't want any of them to do my lab assignment for me. Thats just my opinion so don't say I'm making up shit to win an argument.

hehehe yup... i dont mislead anyone with the thread titles.. I guess people just think it makes them cool to bash.

As for the articles i post. I used to post my own opinion about items all the time. And then i got bashed for not backing it up... SOURCE? SOURCE? So instead when i read an article that i agree with or want to comment on and hear other's opinions about, i post it and add my own comments. So now of course, i get bashed for that too.

Plain and simple... some people dont like my opinion and will say anything to try to get me to shut up

My answer to that is dont read and dont post in these threads if u dont like it.... but then how would u start a flame war right?...

its not... but at the same time it should be a no brainer for mcguinty to pass this law since it will bring money into our hurting economy and boost tourism.

Being in the entertainment industry its a huge deal to me since there are tons off spinoff jobs that come out of events like this...

Again, ive seen mcguinty jump hoops for less investment and put way more time into silly bans and policy.

Howard Stern is a great humanitarian and an asset to this society!


Amen! And let's not forget Toronto's very own HANZI ranting for 2 hours about absolutely nothing, yet seems to be the funnniest thing

I think your blowing this way out of proportion. All the things u mentioned take years and years of dedication to improve and ARE priority, but legalizing MMA takes a couple votes and its over.

1. It's not a fad.
2. It should be a priority because, get this, legalizing it will bring in money. Money which the province desperately needs, which will in turn stimulate the economy. It's quite fucking simple and it doesn't require a lot of resources to get done.

"Being environmental." Lol, what the fuck does that even mean? I'm being environmental when I lay a steaming pile on my neighbour's lawn.

So, let's see here, you're (a) a hippie, (b) militantly ignorant, (c) pompous and disdainful, (d) a bitter asshole, (e) a trance cracker, and (f) unwilling or unable to discuss any issue rationally.

Yep, we have a winner here.
