Proudly presenting....atds only flame thread

Does anybody have any opinions on the spice girls? My fanfic has Daria going to one of their concerts and meeting the girls backstage, as it is only a small story with some pictures of the girls (12350k), so i shall attach it in my next post...ok? Personaly i was heartbroken when Jerry left. It really makes you think.....!

Sounds good. So what's Daria's motivation for going to the concert? I'd think she would have to be dragged there by someone else, but perhaps she could enjoy it as though it were one long episode of "Sick Sad World." Then again, maybe even Daria needs some mindless pop fulff now and then. Oh, one other thing, make sure you break up the post into about 50 fragments so that people with small accounts will be able to download it.

May the eternal un-flame burn for never.

Sorry to get of the topic of this thread and while I would LOVE to talk about the spice girls, I have something more flame-related. Anyone who has been here long enough will remember an actual pseudo-flame war (or at least the worst that it ever got here) that I, of all people, inadvertantly started with an off hand comment about the level of reality present on television. It has been quiet on the flame front ever since.

These images popped in my head:

Regular Newsnet Flame War: "I am Right! You are Wrong! Because Yo' is Stoopid!" "You the stupid one, Dumbass bitch!" "No you! Mo'Fo' Ass-Monkey!"

a.t.d Flame War: "Sir, while I respect your right to say it, I feel I cannot agree with your propsition, as it is, to me, ideologically unsound." "Madam, I recognise your alternative viewpoint, but unless you supply some cognizant statements to support your argument, I maintain that my views on the matter are more relevant."

Alternative a.t.d Flame War: "Is it me, or are half the episodes of second season Daria just lame?" "Ehhh... Whatever... Or something..."

LOL! That was sort of how it went until a couple of posts were directed toward me with subject lines like "Mike=whimp" that contained personal insults (they didn't even bother to spell 'wimp' right.

Personally, I think you give WAY too much credit to the average Usenet flamer. Most of them don't have anywhere near that much control over their punctuation marks and caps key. :]

You're right, I've conditioned myself to pay attention to what I type, and use the Shift key on occasion. Probably helps that I can't touch type, and have to look at the keyboard when typing.

I think 'whimp' has more character. That 'wh' sound gives it a more interesting sound. Try it: 'wimp,' 'whimp.' Definately whimp.

well, i have to say that the only way i think you'd get her to go to a spice girls concert involves either a large pile of cash or an electric cattle prod.

btw, can you break it up into even smaller parts? my isp chokes on anything over 75 lines. ;-)
