Subject: Somebody explain this to me....
Written By: esoxslayer on 11/12/06 at 6:05 pm
Move this topic wherever it belongs, I could not find a proper category for it, more than likely because I'm new here.
Britney Spears.
Recent headlines say she's worried about a "sex tape" that her ex may have and is threatening to release over the net. OK, fine, I can understand that, in most any case except hers. She seems to be worried about having her "wholesome" image shattered if this is released, or so she claims...
I seem to recall an interview where she and that sleaze she married (not the 55 hour fiasco) but the K-Fed idiot, were on a balcony and she dropped to her knees in front of him and either actually did manage a little oral sex on him or at least made the pretense that that was what she was doing. Now, she's worried that a sex tape may be released?? I guess I'm confused. If she wants to act like a slut it's ok, but if somebody else wants to show her doing some knobbin' then it's not OK?? God, she is such a wonderful role model for girls today....

She wants 50% of the royalties from the tape.
In the immortal words of Eddie Murphy: "HALF!"

Britney is no activist. Shes not political. When asked about the war one time she said "I just think we should support the President".
You're so off on that one, sorry. You'll have to find another example to use in order to bash Hollywood liberals. ::)

Listen Dude..if I want to bash Hollywood liberals, I've got far better examples of hypocrites than her...you need to rethink your logic in attacking every post I make, because I'll thrash you as bad as I did concerning the hunting topic. Stick to youngsters who don't have as much of a clue as you and you'll be fine. My commentary made use of the words "Hollywood skank", you changed that to "Hollywood Liberal"...is that what you consider a hollywood skank to be??
Where did I ever mention politics in my thread anyway?? I'm talking about a sex tape and here you bring the war, the President, liberals and activists into the thread, where are you trying to take this anyway, and I'd be real interested to hear how you correlate the original point of this thread to what you brought up in your post.
For somebody that appears to have as many mood swings as you, I can think of far better things for you to be doing than sitting around on a computer all day stating how "bored", "mad", "P.O'd", "sad", "frustrated", etc., etc., you are with your life in general..or is that just all show in order to garner sympathy here from the general forum members??

I'm sorry Gis, he was getting personal with me and it was irritating me.
He was essentially calling me a dumb kid, and I was responding by telling him I'm in the top 2% of the population, which is true. When I was tested my IQ was above 140.
This guy can't even see that I did answer his question. I pointed out that it was pretty obvious what he was implying, even though he didn't specifically say it(he asked me where he got political here).

We don't care what your IQ is or in what percentage of the population you are. It makes you sound snobby and arrogant which is not cool and it makes you sound like you think you're smarter than the rest of us, which is also not cool.

It was more the "I'm clearly smarter than most of the population." bit that seemed the most obnoxious to me. If one was REALLY smarter than 98% of the population, then one would probably be activley recruited by all manner of fortune 500 companies.

Right!
To graduate High school one had to get 240 of a possible 360 points right. Each letter grade in each of the 8-12 classes you took was worth a certain amount of points. By February of my final year I'd actually failed 3 classes and I was told point blank "You will not graduate, you will not finish." Not only did I get 285 points but I failed another class along the way. ;D
It was a simple case of, I don't care if I can speak Spanish, I don't care if I can do Drama or shop and even though I tried.. I wasn't terribly upset about failing Math... cus the rest of the classes I got A's in. Seeing as they interested me.
If they did an IQ test based on reciting facts and opinions then I'd be in the top 0.1% of people in the world. Test me on Math.. I'm actually retarded.

I can't spell properly, I don't understand grammar, Anything above basic math confuses the hell out of me and I don't know what the flag of Ethiopia looks like.
Shuttup.
Har. I took this test, it said it was impossible to finish in the alotted time (Which was 45 minutes), and I did it in 25. I got a score of 160... XD But I'm one of the most naive people I know of. *Nods*.

To graduate High school one had to get 240 of a possible 360 points right. Each letter grade in each of the 8-12 classes you took was worth a certain amount of points. By February of my final year I'd actually failed 3 classes and I was told point blank "You will not graduate, you will not finish." Not only did I get 285 points but I failed another class along the way. ;D
It was a simple case of, I don't care if I can speak Spanish, I don't care if I can do Drama or shop and even though I tried.. I wasn't terribly upset about failing Math... cus the rest of the classes I got A's in. Seeing as they interested me.
If they did an IQ test based on reciting facts and opinions then I'd be in the top 0.1% of people in the world. Test me on Math.. I'm actually retarded.
Okay, and I'll remind you I graduated one year early. Everyone is stronger in certain subjects than in others. I'm very good with linguistics, but I'm weaker on math.

Maybe we can get it back on topic which was originally about Britney Spears and a possible sex tape. Reading the last 2 pages, it's gotten a little off topic. As for the tape, if there is one and she doesn't have it, rest assured it will surface and get to the public. I heard a comedian on tv the other night talking about her recent "pantiyless) outing with Paris Hilton and the guy said after seeing the pics, it looked like she bikini waxed with duct tape :o .

Stick to youngsters who don't have as much of a clue as you and you'll be fine. My commentary made use of the words "Hollywood skank", you changed that to "Hollywood Liberal"...is that what you consider a hollywood skank to be??
Where did I ever mention politics in my thread anyway?? I'm talking about a sex tape and here you bring the war, the President, liberals and activists into the thread, where are you trying to take this anyway, and I'd be real interested to hear how you correlate the original point of this thread to what you brought up in your post.
For somebody that appears to have as many mood swings as you, I can think of far better things for you to be doing than sitting around on a computer all day stating how "bored", "mad", "P.O'd", "sad", "frustrated", etc., etc., you are with your life in general..or is that just all show in order to garner sympathy here from the general forum members??

No, you're not. I think someone in this thread said something to him about that, or it might have been Alex.....I don't know. However, that doesn't make what Alex said any less insulting and arrogant. If you go find the hunting thread though, you'll see why esoxslayer said what he said. It doesn't make it okay, but it does provide context.

Don't shutup, you're not wrong. Alex retorted to esoxslayers opening comment, but not in an attacking way, just making his own point about Britney and esoxslayer took it personally as an attack and countered a bit more seriously and brutally, using the "stick to youngsters your own age" to imply Alex was out of his league in which Alex counters back and then it escalates to an argument and gets a little ugly and the point of the topic long gone. They're both responsible for letting it get personal, and the IQ thing Alex used, while it may be true, (and don't say it isn't true) or Alex will think you're calling him a liar, but to brag or boast about one's brilliance carries litle weight with me and is a display of arrogance, whether one thinks it is or not. I have always found it means more when others say good things about you, than to brag about oneself. Maybe he wasn't bragging and just proud of his test results, but it comes across that way or at least it gives that impression. now back to Britney's tape. who's seen it? ;D

No one here is questioning your right to express your opinions or to defend yourself. But why do you have to be such a dick to people? Do you feel, because of some perceived moral and/or intellectual superiority that you feel you have over others, that you have the right to make insulting and inflammatory statements towards people whom you disagree with?
