The answer is Yes, Il Mago should adopt EricG75. Let someone else deal with his dirty diapers, I am sick of it. |

I second that. We should talk more about Hudson, now everybody is trolling even more than him, that's not fair. I'll start another thread. Everybody is jealous of Hudson

From The Best American Nonrequired Reading 2007, Eggers, Dave (ed.). Houghton Mifflin Co., pp 129-130, in a section written by Daniel Gilbert, Harvard College Professor of Psychology "...The most dangerous idea is the only dangerous idea: the idea that ideas can be dangerous. We live in a world in which people are censured, demoted, imprisoned, beheaded, simply because the have opened their mouths, flapped their lips and vibrated some air. Yes, those vibrations can make us feel sad or stupid or alienated. Tough shit. That's the price of admission to the marketplace of ideas. Hateful, blashphemous, prejudiced, vulgar, rude or ignorant remarks are the music of a free society, and the relentless patter of idiots is how we know we're in one." That rocks.

I wonder if you're mythologizing me, like I do you

If I could I would make the information in that post into a religion and start killing off people who didn't follow it.

Kick ass post. All positive progress in this world has come from those who journey away from the norm. Renegades makes a difference, not corformists. If people aren't free to think, then freedom becomes a thing of the past. |

Hudson -- as you know, I expressed opposition to ousting you. I haven't had any problem with posts of yours I have seen, even when they bug me or I disagree with them. You like to debate things, and I like that about you.
But don't flatter yourself that, by expressing your smart-alecky little views on this website, you are some radical and renegade, living on the edge and courageously defying received wisdom amd challenging authority and thereby creating "positive progress" in the world in the tradition of Galileo or Darwin or Che frickin' Guevera.
Delusions of grandeur are one of the first signs of schizophrenia.
The world will progress or not, and freedom will exist or not, whether or not you -- or I or anyone else -- ever post here again.

Good point, but I'd still rather just stick 'em and be done with it. |

Now peewee, do you think that you're in any position to make those assumptions about me? Do you honestly think you know me well enough to say, for a fact, that I am not said radical renegade challenging authority and creating positive progress? Because if you make those assumptions, you're wrong. I'm am the renegade of funk...and so much more. |

i think Hudson is a nice and clever guy , with an opinion in every subject , but it happens to have a different sense of humor n thinkin.is that a crime?
i cant understand the reason to ban someone cause some people dont like his posts , humor or his opinions.n what comes next?maybe you should also bann mecause i dont like enough The National's lp or for my "stupid" Arctic Monkeys topic or even for my bad english that dont have a place in a serious n mature forum like this...
seems to me so elististic (n i dare to say fascistic) to ban someone for these reasons (no offense to anyone).
you know we live in a free world , that place is a free to express our opinions forum , no matter if people like what we say or not.
And we should not forget that metacritic's forum is a place that most of the members are lovers not only of the indie and alternative music but also of the indie and alternative way of thinkin...
Can we put banning this guy on the table for the way he, y'know, spells words?

After reading this entire thread (which was totally worth it... so funny), I've decided I care so little that I am abstaining from a vote. Just like most of America! THESE COLORS DON'T RUN... or vote. This is so absurd, though, seriously. I'm going back to Fight Club.

This thread is a bright and shining example that the mods are simply incapable of adhering to the very rules they like to impose on the members. I don't care that Eric and the other mods posted in this thread, it doesn't bother me in the slightest. In fact, I like it when everybody feels free to get involved in discussions. However, their inability to follow rules makes their position as rule enforcers rather laughable. |

Yeah hudson, but this thread is also laughably inconsequential. That's why they posted on it. It's harmless and your silly citations are toothless.
