Stupid.
'More relevant now than ever'?
Dude, that post was only 3 months ago. I was expecting you to dredge up somebody's post from 1999 or something.
Next time, just rewrite your thoughts, or pay a FUCKING DOLLAR and put it on Uberboard...

"How about not being a bitch and double -2'ing someones post for no reason? Hmmm? "
Double -2's don't change shit. That's not how the ratings work. The ratings a particular user makes on a particular posts are an average and reperesent one rating.
Meaning, if I give you two -2's, it only counts as only one -2 for you. If I give you one -2 and +0, it will count as one -1.
and if I give you +2 now so you stop shedding tears, it will count as one 0.

Oh, well I was unaware of that. Sorry old chap.

if a post is good enough, people will find it in the end. You knock someones hard work (or a bunch of crap) off the front page doing this.

Okay, true. Or I couldve just rewritten it and posted that, and you wouldnt be the wiser. Hmm.. at least Im being honest.

monica lewinsky, terri schiavo, oj simpson, daniel pearl, iran contra, ryan white, mark mcguire.....fuck, even the osama bin laden issue has lost steam....and it's not even over yet.
my point is, the public will take one issue and blow it completely out of proportion. after a few weeks, and after another sexier issue comes up, the public will throw the first issue away and move on. that's the way it goes. no one cares"""

This is exactly why people should shut the fuck up about it or at least let the dust settle.

My whole point was why the fuck are we still talking about this? And you know what? This place is no different. How many MJ posts were there today? Obviously, the man had to make one himself (hilarious by the way), but jesus, let it go. I even said, in my first sentence that I was dissapointed. Im trying to say "pay attention to something else you retarded fucks".
Pay attention to me instead, Im much more interesting.

I like the effort. You're a standup little worker-bee.

you're not saying anything new. even in your first post. everyone knows that the 'average amercian' is more concerened with celebrity news than actual newsworthy material.
and you asked 'when did we stop caring?' i ask, 'when did we start?' it's always been this way. the popular mass hops from controversial topics like frogs on a lilly pad. no one cares. it's all bullshit. once the issue is over, the popular mass hops onto another issue.
