so if i wasn't a firefighter, or a veteran it would negate everything i said? about a movie? hmmmm. how bout this: no, didn't do that. but i've seen and done worse. so if there's no music on the beach, i'll say you're right and i liked the film? what's up with some of you on this forum? people say, "if you look, or listen close, you were wrong about that one thing, i win."
hold on, let me ask you guys some questions: ever kill somebody? ever almost kill somebody? ever see someone killed? ever see, or been involved in, the kind of real violence that makes Private Ryan hilarious? if we're going to get personal, why all the cyberjoe nicknames? we gonna trade some real stories here? don't think it would fit the format. i thought we were talking movies here. shouldn't have to lay down credentials to comment on a movie. or anything really. my point was that people shouldn't say, "it's good, it's real, i was there." because that means nothing, less than nothing. and the response (because there were more flags out than usual this weekend) was: "were you there?" quick thinking. making my point for me. you realize that getting worked up defending these movies, is the same as getting worked up defending, say, Weekend At Bernies.
hope you (dougpirana) weren't saying i was "borrowing" anything that i write here. maybe you were talking about someone else, but, to me, stealing ideas is like lying. and, even though these debates get heated, and it would be real easy to say "yeah, i was in WW2" and pass the test, i haven't "lied" to you yet.
