I think that's the funniest quote so far. Who? Like Bono?Oceanboy: "...a sincere rock star ..."
of course not, we're bluelighters!understanding comes with acceptance, and we're nowhere near that first step.
There are much bigger issues to worry about than a joke. Oceanboy, if you truly care about those issues then I tip my hat in respect to you. If you seriously lose sleep over the juxtaposition of a couple of words in a promoters name then I seriously pity you...Some writers, the young and the dim ones, think being near something important makes them important so they should act and sound important which will, somehow, make their audience important too. Then, as soon as everybody is filled with a sufficient sense of importance, Something Will Be Done. It's not the truth. Thirty years of acting and sounding important about the Holocaust did nothing to prevent Cambodia.

I totally agree, look at the way we all reacted to DJ Kitty who sometimes made more sense than this (despite all the Kitty comments). The difference is that DJ Kitty made ten threads a day whilst Oceanboy makes 10 a year. The reactions of the general Bluelight population are no different.Originally posted by Pleonastic:
The only reason anyone is defending Oceanboy here is because it just is Oceanboy. Every time he starts a thread like this someone will bag him, and then someone will say that "he's just different, and different opinions are good sometimes". If this was a greenlighter which nobody knew that started something as dumb as this it would be closed quicker than you can say 'mass ass raping' (and I'm not having a go at the mods here either, I would have done the same).
