movie "fast and the furious" DEEP ENOUGH Options

[Alex]

..Im like cool...your like suk...

Are you 12???

[Hoodstock]

So get your panties out of a bunch

Sounds like you're being condescending, even a little bit angry. Maybe you should practice what you preach!

[Hoodstock]

...IF YA DONT HAVE SOMETHING GOOD TO SAY.....STF up!

I didn't know that this was a Nazi website that monitored free speech. Maybe if you can't handle other people's thoughts and opinions you should get off of the internet and find an Omish settlment in the middle of nowhere!

Alright, I was just stating what my position is on the movie and song, and it happens to be negative. What responses did the starter of this topic expect when posting it? "Hey, that's such an awesome movie!!! And it was THAT much better because Deep Enough was played in it..." I'm not too sure myself. So I'm not seeing which line I'm crossing here.

I don't think you understood my point.

If you think I'm criticizing the fact that you have a negative opinion of the song, you're dead wrong. This would be an incredibly boring message board if everyone loved everything Live has ever done, and everyone had a positive opinion of any topic that were to be posted.

I CERTAINLY DO NOT agree with the "if you don't have something positive to say, shut up" sentiment. That's being incredibly closed-minded. Not everyone is going to agree with your ideas and opinions, and there is as much constructive value in having a negative opinion of something as there is in having a positive one.

My problem is not with your negative opinion, but with the fact that the way you expressed this opinion was incredibly condescending and rude to the original poster. He came in here obviously excited about something Live-related that he noticed, and wanted to share it with some fellow fans of the band. Unfortunately, he was met with:

Old news.

Shitty movie, and a shitty song.

"Old news" gives off a vibe of condescension, as if you are talking down to him because you knew something he did not.

The other part of the quote takes on a tone of almightiness, as if you are telling him an undisputed fact that he is stupid for not knowing beforehand. There is nothing about why you dislike the movie or song, just a simple statement meant to be taken as fact.

Clearly there's nothing wrong with disliking something that someone else clearly values, but it is polite to at least express your disapproval in a respectful, constructive way.

That's all.

Like I said, I don't know what was expected in terms of replies for this topic. Maybe he could have even explained his excitement a little more himself. Personally, I don't think a thread is worth being created in the way he did or about the topic he gave. I gave my honest opinion on the song, and maybe I was too lazy to give freakin' reasons upon reasons why the song and the movie suck. I didn't know my opinion of the two warranted a full-out, polite-as-can-be explanation. Plus, it is old news. That's a fact, not an opinion or feeling I had.

Like, you're so awesome! OMG! Like, you posted like, three times in a row, and they were like such AMAZING posts!

Once again, are you 12? First you say: "IF YA DONT HAVE SOMETHING GOOD TO SAY.....STF up!" Then you talk of freedom of speech. Nice one. And congratulations on still not even addressing anything I have said, and instead calling us all assholes who should "like....GO GET A FUCKIN LIFE!". Yes, very nicely done.

TABUCKY...next time your at a LIVE show in the northeast....stop by the front row and say HEY to me....I am the bald guy in the front row always...I would LOVE to meet you...you seem like a REAL ASSHOLE!

Once a-fucking-gain. And I'll use capslock for words as you do. GREAT fucking job OF ignoring what I SAID, and instead CALLING me an ASSHOLE again. You're a TOTAL dumbass. Watch you CALL me an ASSHOLE again. And notice how I haven't even called you any names up until this post. Shows what a lame-ass you are. And yeah, see you at the next Live show. Most bald guys are pipsqueaks inside anyway (at least among Live fans who like DEEP ENOUGH and talk like valley girls online), so I shouldn't have too much of a problem with you. You're obviously in denial of some sort, with your head way too far up your ass to even respond to what I say, so I'm willing to bet you're a weakling all-around.

Have a nice day.
