Tact is for those who aren't witty enough to be sarcastic.
No use cryin' over Spillt Milk
hey guys, i am new to the septagon, i was invited over here after spending all my time in the Zanzibar forum. I posted this there yesterday but i think it is relevant to this forum as well so here goes.
I realize that many of you ass-clowns have an inhuman urge to play devil's advocate that you apparently find uncontrollable. In case you don't fully understand the ramifications of what you are saying let me try and lay it out for you. I am referring to a thread that i read recently that was about racism on XBL. The guy made several well stated points, he was not whining, not preaching, simply concerned. But several people felt compelled to bash him, my question is why. By telling the poster to get a tuffer skin or, in the obviously brilliant words of one poster, "this is how you put a stop to whinning," You are admitting that you are not bothered by racism. This means that you are either completely soul-less and don't care, or you are too stupid to understand and are just being argumentative. Both of these are equally sad. While I am certain that none of this matters to you so called "thick skinned" posters, you are all frightening in your own self-centered, deluded way.
To all the young ones: Dropping racist words to extend your already overused repetiore of profane words does not make you appear cool or grown up no matter what the cool kid in your class tells you. If you are the cool kid, and you intend to use that language throughout your life, get used to black.....and blue. You have nothing to look forward to in life but getting your ass kicked.
To anyone who is older: You should know better, but since you obviously do not i can say only a few things to you. It is both unfortunate and sad that the younger generations of this world have no one more thoughtful to look up to. I'm sure none of you can be alone for any period of time because you would then have nothing better to do than to think about your lives and how you've wasted them with petty bull-blam!- like hating another group of human beings based on nothing more than how they look or how the rest of your family thinks about them.
Why don't you all stop and think for a moment about what it means to be human and then, if your brains haven't overheated or imploded from the strain of thought, consider the meaning of the word racism and contemplate why anyone possessing even a shred of decency would want to be associated with such terrible company. If you determine that you are comfortable with said company, please do the rest of humanity a favor and go play in traffic, or eat a gun.
I realize that was a little harsh but the problem of racism is not exclusive to LIVE, there are people who post racist crap in here everyday. Some action to rid the forums of these people is necessary and would be a step in the right direction. Thanks for your time.
