Honestly? You don't think a thread that suggests taking our future into our own hands rather than let others decide it is important? I happen to disagree. This was made, yes, as a knee-jerk reaction against the bloated poll thread, but it's still got valid points to make. If we all take a look at how we're behaving here and try to look at things from both sides, then it could be a better place.

Reminds me of that Douglas Adams quote: "One day nearly two thousand years after one man was nailed to a tree for saying how great it would be to be nice to one another for a change..."

And no, I am not comparing myself to Jesus. I wouldn't do that to him.

At this point, there's been so much discussion about it that it seems better to just leave things alone. Especially since i really dont know what people are trying to achieve anymore. That's just my thoughts anyway.

His opinion is, if they need to use a fecking cartoon to make their point they're no use to me, he went on to say that if he could he'd slaughter the bastards and throw their remains into the sea.

Simpsons etc fans are very similar to Sci-Fi fans, the average Sci-Fi fan uses the authors imagination and somewhere throughout the process of reading and understanding the book they assume they have a great imagination too, i think its called being deluded. Simpsons fans are similar with the sense of humour.
You and your boss sound like assholes.

Tell me in no more than twenty five words why The Simpsons is so great.
Congratulations. You don't like a cartoon. Way to take the high road and belittle another person for liking it.

To be fair, if I'm interviewing someone to defend white collar criminals or deliver pizzas or whatever, and the dude starts talking about The Simpsons, his application's going right in the trash. Who mentions The Simpsons in the middle of a job interview?

I used to sit in a 350 dollar chair from Ikea at the theater. Close enough.
