Enough is enough

[incisor]

this morning i have had to ban a user for a month for going well and truly over the line of acceptable behavior in a post on politics.

FROM NOW ON ALL POLITICAL OR RELIGIOUS TOPICS MUST BE STARTED OR POSTED ONLY IN THE SOAPBOX AREA. ANYWHERE ELSE AND THEY WILL BE DELETED WITHOUT WARNING AS THEY ARE SPOTTED.

enough is enough.

[DeeJay]

Can you do that for political jokes too please??
That's no joke:D

[Narangga]

Thanks for being politically correct.

[Dmmos]

Alas! Our fearless leader has cast aside the forum rulebook - and removed one of us (perhaps to the gall-bladder thread?).

To the soapbox! :D

[spudboy]

Must have been a quick thread - I completely missed that one :(

[dullbird]

you got to be quick around here!!:D

Typical repression by the ruling class.

The peasants are revolting ! :angel:

[Mick_Marsh]

The peasants are revolting ! :angel:
Yes. They are a pretty revolting lot.

[LOVEMYRANGIE]

The peasants are revolting ! :angel:

Peasant is actually quite tasty particularly the wild ones. Roasted in a Webber....... Oh........ Sorry...... That's 'pheasant'!!!

Was wondering how we went from banning to politics, to racism and then birds!!!
:p

[KarlB]

...and pheasants are related to turkeys, so we have almost gone full circle. Funny old world ...

Cheers

Why is a fire engine red?

Because they have ladders, ladders have steps, steps are climbed on by feet, one foot is 12 inches, 12 inches is the length of a ruler, Queen Elizabeth was a ruler, she ruled over the seas, the seas have fish, fish have fins, the Fins fought the Russians & the Russian flag is red.

And Russia is near Turkey.

Or so it would seem.

Not just "those" threads - go back and read all of this one :p

How does it go? Something like:
"All the world is mad except thee and me, and just lately I'm not too sure about thee".

[warren9981]

I think he's just tying up all the loose threads and putting them back where they belong.;)

[RobHay]

Can anyone repeat what the thread said:angel:

[Chucaro]

Pardon my ignorance, is this related to the proposed Internet censorship in Australia and apply only to the overseas members? :confused:

What would be disqualified from Soapbox forum for lack of structural integrity.?

Good move Inc in keeping the controversial issues out of general chat. :)

Old man - I order you to be quiet!

Surely we're off to the soapbox now? :angel:

[clean32]

as Inc said and on the topic of Baning

Qur'an (3:56) (http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/003.qmt.html#003.056) - "As to those who reject faith, I will punish them with terrible agony in this world and in the Hereafter, nor will they have anyone to help."

:D:D:D:twisted::twisted::twisted::p:p:o:o

some funny faces so some one doint think im all seriouse

[Capstan]

#1 son quotes it to me often :p
#3 hadn't heard any until he was driving home form work here one night and the local community radio had 'The Yorkshiremen' playing. It's a 3 min drive and when he got home he was already quoting it word for word to me ;)

Aside from Inc's first post, the rest of the thread makes no sense :angel:

[Ausfree]

As is the intent, its great to talk about irrelevancies rather than things that don't matter!!!:confused: Like Politicians, Religion and other such stuff that some people can't discuss without getting nasty!!!:) More power to not making sense I say!!!!:twisted:

There seems to be some Monty Python reference here but I would avoid getting into any political discussion about the 'Peoples' Front of Judea' unless you want the thread deleted. :p

What have the Romans ever done for us, eh?

Alas! Our fearless leader has cast aside the forum rulebook

No. The person involved had probably incurred a number of infractions which totalled enough to get a temporary banning.

[clean32]

AAHHH so he ate the pepermint ?

[Dmmos]

No. The person involved had probably incurred a number of infractions which totalled enough to get a temporary banning.

I was trying to refer to Julia Gillard 'tossing aside the campaign rulebook' and show off my fantastic sense of wit & general aptitude - I clearly failed :D

[Pedro_The_Swift]

ok,, NOW its funny!!:D

[fernockulated]

Quick, run,hide!!!


DAVE'S BACK!!!!!!!!

dave dave daves not, no i wont :D

[abaddonxi]

HAL
Something seems to have
happened to the life support system, Dave.

HAL
Hello, Dave, have you found out the trouble?

HAL
There's been a failure in the
pod bay doors. Lucky you
weren't killed.

HAL
Hey, Dave, what are you doing?

HAL
Hey, Dave. I've got ten years
of service experience and an
irreplaceable amount of time
and effort has gone into making
me what I am.

HAL
Dave, I don't understand why
you're doing this to me.... I
have the greatest enthusiasm for
the mission... You are destroying
my mind... Don't you understand?
... I will become childish... I
will become nothing.
:Rolling::Rolling::Rolling:

Oh dear, I am slow.

So what is the name of the AULRO Server, Dave?

[THE BOOGER]

Whats worse being slow or knowing the script to a space oddessy off by heart:angel:

[Landy Smurf]

slow i love singing to space oddessy

[Pedro_The_Swift]

now theres a generation gap!:D

[incisor]

hey man, this is dave...



let me out man...


last time i saw that much of the space oddessy script it was in a religion class after we just came back from the theatre to watch it in town.


cheech and chong was much better but i didnt have to do an indepth analysis of that one :p

[Disco44]

Cheech and Chong were definitely funny even though they smoked all sorts of things...remember " bowie wowie" hilarious!

[clean32]

Whats worse being slow or knowing the script to a space oddessy off by heart:angel:

Script to a space odyssey off by heart? now that’s just sad,
I bet he knows how many rivets there are in a 1952 S1, first week of march build ( Friday) (after lunch) ( the riveters were Dave and Johnny)
Dave was the tall one but needed a haircut, as his mother kept reminding him, he still lived at home. He may have been a bit absent minded on the day as the previous week he had just gotten to first Base with Clair (holding hands)
Jonny rode bikes, and was quite good at locating them. Luckily Dave didn’t know this. He also didn’t know that Clair wasn’t quite what he thought she was.
Any way rivets abaddonxi will know

[abaddonxi]

Nope, and nope, can barely tell Series Land Rovers apart. As for 2001, first film I walked out of in a huff, 8 years old (wasn't the original release), thought it was garbage.

Google is my friend, and when it isn't I go to Drew's - Drew's Script-O-Rama: free movie scripts and screenplays, baby! (http://www.script-o-rama.com/)

It's debatable whether Drew's is acceptable for referencing in academic literature, but that also part of the problem of writing about scripts. Each script has dozens of drafts, none of which necessarily match the finished film. If a film script is published in a book it's often edited after the film is released to match the film rather than present the original script.:D

Doing a PhD in scriptwriting theory, so I've got a bit of an interest.

[Mick_Marsh]

Each script has dozens of drafts, none of which necessarily match the finished film.
And there are different versions of a film. Don't forget Blade Runner had five different film versions.

[abaddonxi]

And the weird remakes -
Hell in the Pacific (1968) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0063056/)
WWII remade into SciFi.
Enemy Mine (1985) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0089092/)

[The ho har's]

gee from inc telling everyone to pull there heads in about talking politics and religion to films and script writing:o


Has someone crossed/merged the stars thread with this one:huh:

Dances with Wolves was a very similar story as well

i can see stars (http://www.aulro.com/afvb/general-chat/18652-i-can-see-stars.html)
