PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"This is a great site" |
For sociological purposes this is a great site! Since discovering it I have been breathlessly cautioned on three occassions, by fellow posters, that, great clalamity of calamities - I may soon be banned from the site. I have had the joy of being called "dude" or better yet "sparky" many times. I can't help but wonder if those who utter such phrases feel the same sense of media generated "hippness" that I do when blessed with such a term of endearment. Thanks dudes! Somewhere in America, I actually broke up an early morning "business meeting" today when one its principals felt compelled to respond more completely to what I considered a light hearted posting. The picture of that person making notes on how to best respond, all the while oblivious to the meeting going on around her is simply adorable. If Marshall McLuhan was right and television programming is designed to appeal to the lowest common denominator, then this site is the cyber equivalent of an intellectual ant farm. I read your posts with the same child-like wonder one reserves for such exhibits. It is great fun mingling with the masses. I am gleaning a better understanding of your opium induced trance with each passing day! Thanks

I think that was a very well written and thoughtful post Vernon. Don't listen to anybody on this site giving you shi* about what you want to write. I personally believe that most, if not all, of your insights are quite valid, and if your intellect is too much for my fellow post hounds to handle, then their loss. I, myself enjoy pouring wax on my lower extremities while reading your thoughts on Joe Schmo. I guess I could say that your brain turns me on, and I'm sure that you are a swell looker too. In fact, I had a dream about you the other night. You and I were on The Joe Schmo Show. The mansion caught fire and you were rescuing me. You later told me that it symbolized the fall of Tibet. We then went for a swim in the pool, which was an obvious metaphor for the closing of our borders to immigrants, duh! The dream ended with you and I voting off Nancy Reagan in matching thongs. Not quite sure what that meant, but I hope that you will decipher that for me a well.You are an intellectual inspiration to us all.

You see vernon, if you had actually displayed this much self awareness and humor from the beginning of your tenure in our little ant farm, you might not be having the reception you are now. Once again, rather than refute anything I said or answer anything I asked, you took great care and time to craft a snarky little response full of insults and completely devoid of anything resembling, I dunno, relevant content. Did you anticipate that we would all throw flowers at your feet and annoint your head with oil for showing us the way and truth and light? You sure get all testy if people don't agree with you. If you are gonna post something so ridiculous, poorly conceived and completely full of holes as your Iraqi thing, people are going to challenge you. And why do you care if we believe you or not? I just don't get that at all. I'm sure that my drab, lifeless corporate existance amuses you. And I'm sure you are all atwitter at getting a chance to throw a few insults my way. That's fine. I dished it out, I'm more than willing to take it. But all you've done is thrown out lame insults. What exactly did that accomplish? You've based every post on the fact that you've taken some course at some point in your no doubt illustrious and long scholastic career that has brought you to the inescapable conclusion that the producers of this reality TV show are all laughing at us and our obtuseness. Let me break this down for you again ok? You can continue to believe that this is the producers trying to subliminally point out the scam of the Iraqi war and we won't stop you. We won't believe you, but we won't stop you either. You can continue to say that Joe is in fact an actor that is in on the whole thing. Some people will agree and some people won't. You can continue to debate that on here to your heart's content. I personally could not possibly care less if he knows or not, although I do not believe that he does. But what you can't do - as so many people have pointed out with far more patience and restraint than I can muster - is personally attack other posters. You can think I'm a moron or a b!tch or whatever, but you can't post it. It's really just that simple. And someone as smart and hip and cool as you ought to be able to grasp that. Look, I'm not a moderator here. And I don't care if you stay or go. But if you are going to be a member of the community, the mods will make you follow the rules. Three moderators have tried to encourage you and help you navigate the forum without getting yourself banned. If you don't care whether or not you're banned, more power to you. I enjoy seeing people go out in flames on here – especially psuedo intellectual elitist snobs who over estimate their own intelligence while underestimating that of everyone else. Honestly, I've wasted more than enough time on this and on you.

LAST EDITED ON 09-16-03 AT 04:45 PM (EST)that might have been funny if I hadn't just made fun of myself for the length of that post already. S.W.A.K.,
Lisapoop ETA: stop telling me when he posts again, I have more corporate drudgery to attend to. And does anyone feel like this is P-HO and I'm Zach and y'all are my fifty guys from Arizona?

Poho on P-Ho...well, that's a lovely image to ponder on another forum, isn't it?Actually, I'd love to see you on Schmo. You'd look at these "actors" and ask them WTF they've been smoking. At least, that's what I'd expect you to do after your assertiveness training.  Fighting for evil (and neat forums) since 2002.

Shakes the Clown seems to be dead unless he signed on under another handle. If he did, then he's managed to tone it down a little as his style is quite obvious.
