Written By: Syncronos on 02/03/03 at 08:18 a.m.

You should know that some people have nothing better to do than to spite you ;)

But if you ever find out, I'd like to be part of the goon squad, I have to break in my new crowbar ;D

Some buttpirate's been giving out straight 1s on the voting for our parodies lately.  It's pretty annoying.  You wanna join our goon squad?  :)

Seriously...and Chucky, feel free to chime in...what are we going to do about this guy? I'm all about a person expressing their opinions about our parodies, but this borders on deliberate. Before the songs are even posted, it seems that this person rates everyone with 1 1 1 right down the board. I know we're not the have all/be all of parody writing, but we aren't THAT bad, are we?

um.. so what exactly can I do? like I've pointed out before.. the system is designed in such a way, that 1 votes wouldn't hurt too bad if more votes were cast.. the only solution I can think of, would involve requiring registration to vote.. which is worse, a couple of all 1 votes from a tool, or no votes at all?

Just had my daughter's 7th birthday party.  I will NEVER have 14 (yes 14!) six and seven year olds over for a slumber party again.  I must have been insane to have agreed to something so crazy. :P
Other than that, the kids are fine. :)

Subject: Proper kneecapping technique...

Written By: LyricBoy on 02/03/03 at 05:57 p.m.

Syncronos,

Let me fill you in on the proper modern-day method of kneecapping as practiced in Northern Ireland.

Instead of the tried-and-true approach of whacking the perp with a baseball bat, the IRA now uses a cordless power drill and "drills" the kneecap area. :o  Much more effective.

Thanks for the advice. A power drill does seem like the approach if your intent is to inflict surgically precise pain on someone...however, when all you want is a good old fashioned blunt trauma to the patella...a 10 lb sledge hammer is all you need!  8)

Hey, isn't there an archive or something where you can use an IP to zero in on someone?

I hope so...then we can choke him with his own spleen.

None of us can write.  Hmm.  That's a new one, especially with the large amounts of parodies we submit.

This makes me wonder.....if you guys can't write, then why the heck would this fool even bother pestering everyone? Oh wait, I know! He's jealous of everyone and must make a nuisance of himself to compensate for his lack of talent! ;D

???Concerning today's entry about propagandhi's "middle finger response", When you take it in context and consider the previous verse, it's not all that bad. Maybe this guy should concentrate on offensive for the sake of offensive instead of attacking a band that has well defined intentions and is socially involved. Hell, I found the state of the union address much more offensive than this. ;D

Written By: luvstasing on 02/09/03 at 07:19 p.m.

;D iyes i can perfectly understand how annoying it is to have someone with the same IQ as the votes he uses ,trying to mess up ya work but honestly if you have been clever enuff to actually have more than one parody submitted then more power to you.
the unknown offender could may well have been a premenstrual woman who needed to be a cow.No it wasnt me by the way lol. i think that the votes should be ignored and you should be proud of your work, a good parody's not easy but you do fine.

by the way i find that a well placed boot heel in the side of the knee works well but i prefer to bring along my hoard of screaming preschoolers to lock this perp in a room with 4 a couple of hours , yes its a slow torture but a good one.

keep up the good work

Okay...SOOOOO...my friend and I submitted a couple of parodies we co-wrote to be posted Monday, and I don't mean to whine or anything but I personally didn't think they were that bad.  I think I just got hit by the "One Guy" :-/

Please tell me what you think, I appreciate honesty, but straight 1's is just malicious.

By the way, I noticed the title's been edited...can't we just disembowel him without killing him?

Okay, I understand getting hit by 1-1-1's once.  Maybe even twice.  But FOUR TIMES on the same parody?  Goodness!  :-/

Now I'm not too big on ratings and votes and what not, but I like honest feedback, and I know a lot of other parody artists would probably get royally mad if they got 1-bombed.  There are probably ways to mask IPs and to hop around on university or library computers and just keep voting 1's on everything, but can't someone kind of associate one of the 1-voter's IPs with a general location so I can drive over with my whuppin' stick and throw down?

It really doesn't make much difference for you people that get 20,30,40 some votes if one person goes 1-1-1. However, it does hurt people like me who average a whopping 5 votes each time. If it gets too bad, we could ask to have a thing with having to register to vote....
