Yeah well I just figured there was no point in lecturing people about making threads like this, besides this is about anything on the planet not just entertainment products so at least it has potential to provide some form of conversation that shouldn't erupt into a flame war.Legion said:A decent post... in a thread about this topic?!

It is an overwieght slow moving poorly adapted animal that barely reproduces and would not in the slightest be missed by the ecosystem if it died out, and yet we go to extreme lengths to keep it as a species alive because we find it 'cute' and letting millions of other species that actually have purpose die in the meantime.
Sorry about the long time between replies. The reason that these laws weren't around with the IRA is I think, because it was a different kind of terrorism. I might be simply revealing my lack of knowledge on the subject, but didn't they focus on property damage rather than blowing people up?gibboss28 said:Things such as the new laws put in place that infringe on the liberties we have and yet these laws were nowhere to be found when we were being bombed by the IRA.Aeriath said:Okay, I'll bite.

Overrated things, hmm. I can't in good conscience jump on the iPad bandwagon because I only know 1 person who has one, and no one else seems bothered about it. I'll go with The Beatles. I'm not really a fan. Some of their stuff is alright but they are not near Godlike as some people I've met believe.
and also that its caused quite a lot of alienation to Muslims to boot, hell I can remember being on the tube in London a while back and some stupid moron shouting "what the fuck is she doing on the tube dressed like that? she'll probably blow us up" all because she was wearing a Burqa, but the womans responce was quite funny, she asked the person if they needed to be reminded of when to breathe in and out due to the fact they have such a small mind, which got a lot of laughs.
I can probably reword it but i couldn't think of another way of putting it.
I do get peeved when people say this, because barely anyone is denying it is one of the most hated games of all time. Look at any Modern Warfare 2 thread on this site and then tell me it is overrated. I like it, but each game session usually ends with me holding a hammer over it, urging myself to do it.Marter said:I think Modern Warfare 2 is really overrated. It isn't all that great as far as I'm concerned.
You watched it on the worst TV in the house just so you could ***** about it? That's just pretentious.Bull3t said:Avatar I mean I never bought the hype and I made sure to watch it on the worst tv in the house so I wouldn't not be taken by it's charm and it was so average.

No, good sir, now our 'friendship' is over!Biosophilogical said:Friendship! Over!Aby_Z said:Dogs. I hate the damnable annoying little pests...
Well, technically we were never friends, and technically I mean nothing by this. In reality I was just responding to you as a means by which to lead into my point, which is ...
Dogs are awesome but I find cats are extremely over-rated and the only redeeming quality they have (being cute) isn't very common, as most of them are actually ugly and/or evil looking.
Yes, Tim Burton is very overrated. He was good for a time, back when he was directing movies like Sleepy Hollow. These days, though, he gets by on his style alone.Alucard 11189 said:I find a lot of things very overrated to be quite honest with you. I think I am just sceptical of anything "popular" but here we go: The Avatar film, Johnny Depp (even though he was OK in "Pirates of the Carribean), Tim Burton, The Beatles and the England football team
Do I detect a Hitchhiker's reference?Berethond said:I regard creating the universe as a pretty bad decision.
This. A thousand times this. Half Life 2 was eh, L4D 1/2 was eh, Portal was eh, Counter Strike was eh, and TF2 was eh. I mean theres more than that, but none of them are so "OMGRadeonx said:I sort of agree on Johnny Cash.
Also: 90% of the Valve games. People act like they are the second coming, when, in my opinion, they are incredibly average.
