Aw, yeah...youve definately got a ways to go. The thing is not to fall into the trap of just making tons of muffin posts(see to muffin or not to muffin for explanation) which looks like cheap post points.
Now I have a question Mr. anti-hot topic. What if they released a Cantus plush to Hot Topic exclusively? Would your anti Hot Topic stature preclude ya from making a trip to the nearest Hot Topic?
Believe me, Ive been going to HT for 5 years and while 99% of the fashion there is quite lame...oh man have they been getting the sweet Muppet stuff!
First of all, I am not anti-Hot Topic. Nor am I anti-alternative lifestyle, anti-punk, goth or whatever. I am perfectly fine with everyone doing whatever anyone wants to do with their life, as long as I am left alone. That was not the question of the post.
Now, if Hot Topic was to release a Cantus plush, of course I would get it. I'm not against Hot Topic, in fact I think its good that some place is releasing Muppet stuff for the Muppet-fanatics. It is the
people who shop and wear the merchandise who are heroine addicted imps, who's brain has been fried beyond salvation wearing muppet stuff that bothers me. See, while everyone in that thread has fond memories of nice gothic people and smart, award-winning punks, around here the goths and punks are scum. I've met and talked to them, and they are truely full-fledged bottom feeders. That is the point of view I have, because the goths and punks here are the only ones I've been exposed to.
Now I've been really good about keeping my opinions to myself around here, being that I want to fit in and be just another one of the guys. So if you'd be kind enough to drop the subject I'd be most appreciative, or at the very least keep it in the thread it was started in, and not run it into other posts of mine. I understand your anger or at least your need to lash out at me in the last thread, but its over now and I'd like to keep it that way. In any case if you need to debate the subject further with me, my email address is:
themantischild@aol.com
I'd like to keep anything negitive on my behalf off the board.
I think your a cool guy Cory, I really do. I respect you. But I think you look down on my because of my opinions, and that just makes me feel bad. I'd like the previous to be a dead issue.
Thank You.
