37043, you READ all that convoluted bullshit?
Posted by Big Chief Rumbletummy, Thu Feb-23-06 08:42 PM
I don't even know what I'm talking about 1/3 of the time.

To be absolutely 100% honest...it was a joke. I don't REALLY think that I'm better, or smarter, or more hung (even though I probably am) than anyone else because of a TV show. I actually thought that was ludicrous enough to be transparently jokey. But since thats the part of my rambling incoherence that apparently made enough sense for you to respond to, I will concede the argument and agree that if someone were to actually act that way then they would indeed be ignorant. But we had better get from way out here on this limb because its not gonna support the both of us. (And my dick thats bigger than yours).

but it doesn't exactly yell out,
>"Brilliant guy here!"

Yes it does. It sounds that barbaric YAWLP from the mountainside to the hills and valleys below. You can't argue that. It's science. Echo science.


>Yes, you are an elitist prick, you got that part right.

Again, joke. But if you wanna know why I chose to joke that way it was because of comments like this from your mcdeezdoppleganger (okay wait...is that you? forgive my unintelligible ramblings but the names are oh-so similar):

"What's even worse is the elitist attitude that those who actually enjoy the british version come at you with when you explain why their favorite version is actually just a glorified steamy pile compared to the american version"

I mean, I KNOW I don't make sense sometimes...but that comment there...I can't decide if its more ironical than hypocritical. But the best part is a reply later when he said:

"What I said supports my opinion, and does nothing to Display an "elitist attitude" at all..."

Remember, what he "said" was:

"What's even worse is the elitist attitude that those who actually enjoy the british version come at you with when you explain why their favorite version is actually just a glorified steamy pile compared to the american version"

Dude flat out gave his opinion, and then said that his opinion supports his opinion. Wow. Also, he's absolutely correct...there isnt' even a whiffle of "elitism" is saying that you "explain" to someone why their "favorite version is actually just a glorified steamy pile" when compared to something he likes. That's quite humble actually. Almost deferential. He/You(?) is most definitely un-elitist.

"Sorry kiddo"

ESPECIALLY when trying to correct people while calling them kiddo!!

" ...There is nothing elitist in saying that the british version isnt funny... However, there is an elitist attitude in all of you who claim that the people who think it is unfunny "dont get it"....We get it...and we think it is boring compared to the American version"

All I have to say about this part is that all of us who like TOBBC HATE generalizations. Every single one of us.

>yourself type. But I have a few more responses.

Now you're just being mean. And it hurts. And I don't like hearing myself type. I mean...I don't NOT like it. I'm pretty much indifferent about the whole thing. Its just typing. Why would you think I like that one way or the other? You know what sound I do like? A child's laughter. And farts.


>This is all opinion, and it is also all wrong. lol

>At least you admit that the BBC version is not funnier than

Well see, shit...I didn't know you were un-elitistly condescending your generalizations to all of us from such an enlightened position. Hellfire! You say you saw a whole one of TOBBC??!? Damn it all then, I can't hope to change your mind! You've done your homework! I bet you have a bumper sticker that says "Minds are like parachutes: they only function when opened". Because you totally seem like someone who would have a bumper sticker!
>
>I thought you said you were smart? Of course we can argue it.
>And it's nothing even remotely similar to science.

There you go again, taking the hardest possible angle to argue and just nailing the point home! You, once again, are correct...its not science at all! I made that part up!! Fuckin shit, I thought I'd get one by you!! Now I KNOW you have a bumper sticker!

>
>Never saw it. Maybe this would have been the one to catch.

No...you've done quite enough. What more could people ask of you? You've watched a whole episode, you don't have the 30 minutes to go wasting on a show you've already spent 30 minutes on before deciding its horrible, the US version is far superior, and that you'll argue the point whenever you can! Fuck man....I mean 30 whole menudos!


>No, I think you probably like a show that appeals to you, and
>nothing's wrong with that. I don't have this disdain for UK
>Office fans that you seem to have for fans of the US version.
>I'm bigger than that. You like it, you watch it. It doesn't
>matter to me if you're missing out on a better show in the US
>version.

I was going to quizzically ask you why you thought I had a disdain for fans of the US show, because I don't. But then i remember that you're still firmly planted on the righteous side of refusing to bow down to obviously ridiculous arguments. I don't hate people who like TONBC better than TOBBC. I don't think I'm smarter than anyone who likes TONBC better than TOBBC. I know I previously said I do but I was lying. Now I'm telling the truth.

Oh!! and I also have come to a conclusion and decided you and mcdeezjawns are NOT the same person. But you'll probably criticize my writing style and call me fatty or something. Dick.


>On OKP maybe. Not in the real world. I know 2 people in real
>life who like the BBC version. Almost everyone I know who's
>around my age (29) watches the US version and loves it. Vocal
>majority? Only on OKP.

Shenanigans!! I call Shenanigans. Happy as I am for you and your friends aged 27-31 that you have all found a TV to watch and love I must take umbrage with your qualifier of "only on OKP". Until you and I, and your cabal of almost-middle-aged-TONBC-watchin-and-lovin pals, all sit down in real life and talk this out then "only on OKP is what we're all going to have to settle for. And "only on OKP" its just you and like 4 others who argue TOBBC << TONBC. Hey wait a second though...unless you know like 20 million people around your age (29), then how does your little "Carrell Clique" constitute a majority. That's fuzzy math. Downright peach-faced.

>No, I don't really think that. I just think you're missing out
>on a better show.

Okay, maybe you don't really think that but someone somewhere above, or in one of the other baker's dozen posts on this debate, said that the only reason people like it is because its cool to be anti-American or some other jingoistic horseshit. Maybe it was mcdeezLeeGreenwood'snutsacks or someone. Thanks for your concern about me missing out on your fave show. Maybe you and all your friends hovering around the big 3-Oh can get me a card. And then apologize for calling me arrogant prick.


>Sounds familiar. I typically don't insult people whose
>opinions differ from mine, but that seems to be your style.
>For instance, "anyone who likes the US version more than the
>UK is less intelligent than me" - that's arrogant, ridiculous,
>and a whole host of other things that I don't feel like typing
>because my dinner is ready.

I don't really know what I was going for with that last one...I think I was just trying to get to 5.

Here's an assumption...I dunno if this is accurate or not, its just a shot in the dark here...but I think it REALLY stuck in your craw that I said I had no problems with thinking people stupid if they liked TONBC >> TOBBC, you brought it up enough. Just a guess. Maybe a guesstimate? I'm just thinking that it really bothered you. Had you not brought it up 4 times maybe I'd think differently. Maybe. Do I need to tell you again that "dems just jokes". I don't really mean it. Okay? I promise. And was it really so incoherent that you totally missed how I mostly attacked people defending TOBBC? Was it really so incoherent that you could only respond to one part over and over?

You can go ahead and scratch ONE person around your age (29) off your friends list pal!!

>Regardless of which show is better, you are a huge asshole.

Stop. It hurts. Seriously.
