You and Serge having a conversation is usually an invitation for everyone to put on their helmets and any other body armor they might possess.

But uhh... from what I can see in this conversation... it sounds like you two just have a difference of opinions about something and you're both arguing to try and change the other's mind. Trust me, it's not gonna work; you lost from the moment you started talking.

Of course it was intended as a sardonic joke about the way that I hardly ever see you and Serge getting along really well... I mean it seems like you two are at odds from time to time. I'm not sure about the rest of you, but I do recall one incident involving Winged Lisa where you and Serge were at each other's throats.

That's cool, but just remember one thing: Arguing on the internet is like running in the special olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded. The moral of the story there is that you can get all hot under the collar at the person you're arguing with, but it really accomplishes nothing. And maybe I'm jumping to conclusions here, but as I said, you and Serge have a tendency to trade barbs when you disagree about something. It's all well and good if you just want to understand him, but from the outside looking in, it looks like this "conversation" may go to familiar places.

Mmm I dunno, constructive writing never really was my thing... and if you really want to know, I haven't seen either movie. I haven't even heard of them. I don't watch Futurama, all I've seen are a couple episodes and know just enough to be able to identify the characters by name and personality.

Because you asked me to, in this post:


Here's one. http://www.lisa-simpson.net/topic/492.msg14634#msg14634

And here's another one. http://www.lisa-simpson.net/topic/655.msg15056#msg15056

And oh look! Another one! http://www.lisa-simpson.net/topic/509.msg15136#msg15136

Sorry Frank... check your sources before you post something like that.

I wouldn't call it being retarded, it's more like being observant and aware of your surroundings.

You asked me to join the conversation, not say what I thought about the movie. Next time be more specific.

CargoOfDarkness
In English joining the conversation means saying something that elicits response from someone else. I think I did just that.

And judging by your responses, I'm really getting under your skin here, because your last two posts have been petty insults.

CargoOfDarkness
I didn't respond to a question that was asked. You simply said "Would anyone else like to join the conversation?" so I joined. Now we're talking. This is called a conversation.

And "getting under your skin" is a figure of speech for annoying you. Which seems to be an easy thing to do with someone like you.

Back at ya. I always welcome a good debate, regardless of the subject matter or rules of engagement.

CargoOfDarkness
No... putting in a random thought would've been saying something like "Did you know that the average lifespan of a duck is five years?" That's a random statement unless the conversation revolved around ducks. But the conversation was about Futurama, and was being carried on by you and Serge. So two angles of approach would be the most appropriate - either Futurama, or the way that you and Serge seem to be in constant opposition.

That's good. Laughter is healthy.

True, but I know enough about the way you've acted in the past to make an educated guess about your actions in the future.

CargoOfDarkness
Bye bye now. Come back any time you'd like to have a conversation, I'm always willing to chat.

I believe Frank (Cargo) intended that "figure of speech" thing to be a dig on me due to the fact that I used the figure of speech "getting under your skin".
