This dolt at IMDb

***CaptHayfever*** · 04-20-2007, 12:44 AM

So I was at IMDb, and some guy was ranting stupidly that Oprah hates black men. Whatever.
Anyway, he rambled something about her comments about explicit hip hop lyrics, and then he said--and I quote (read: and I copy-paste)....

Quote:

how many people conducted a persecution of rock lyrics celebrating sex and drugs?

Yup, he's absolutely right. No one has ever complained about sex & drugs in rock lyrics. Not once was such a protest heard until rap became prominent. Ever.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Well, here's your problem:

You're on IMDb's message board.

You trying to tell me you didn't expect idiocy? It's IMDb: Idiotic Movie Debators Board.

Well, it's still better than GameFAQs. Not by much, but yeah.

Where are these lemmings going? Not the Super Nintendo Super Shire! They know to go to Codiekitty.com now!

Isn't the IMDB sanctioned by Hollywood or something? -CSM

I just totally pwned some n00b there, who was trying to argue that people speaking using street slang would be the downfall of modern civilization. It's gotten to the point where he's begun throwing silly ad-hominems at me, calling me a "gangster lover" and telling me to "go back to my gang" and that "nobody agrees with" me when it was only the two of us posting.

^^Only insofar as they like sending info to it because they know it's so popular. It's owned by Amazon.com.

rock lyrics don't use the N word. Most rap artists do. That's what got Oprah upset.

Good try though.

i get what the man is trying to say, but why pull the race card twice?

***CaptHayfever*** · 04-22-2007, 12:00 PM

What are you talking about? I was referring to the fact that rock lyrics were persecuted like witches in Massachusetts until the kids who grew up with rock started getting into power, and even still the problem isn't gone.
I've only played the Race Card once, and it wasn't here. But if you insist, I'll play it a 2nd time:
