Things you did not post

[Jixby Phillips]

Use this thread when you are about to post a thing, but you don't want to muck up a thread with your bullshit. I'll go first!

So I wrote this out in the DARK KNIGHT thread. It's a fucking mess. You really get inside my over-explainy head:

Hey guys do not read this if the idea of somebody not loving and accepting batman will make you mad, I am not trying to do that and I am happy you like your batman superhero character:

Will I like the movie if I do not care about batman and was never excited at all about the idea of this movie or seeing this movie and immediately glazed over when people posted bulletins on myspace about how excited they were by the image of whatshisface's* face painted as the joker?

I am not trying to pretend I'm cool for not caring about this stuff (maybe I am a little bit, sorry ), I am actually curious to see what all the fuss is about and if theres anybody else out there that doesn't care about Batman but saw this and was impressed. I wouldn't be asking this here if this movie wasn't currently THE TOP MOVIE ON IMDB AS RATED BY IT'S USERS.

*FULL DISCLOSURE: I had to think about this guy's name, and it came to me, but I want to communicate the idea that I have never seen a single movie Heath Ledger was in and would not be able to pick him out of a line up if asked. Again, I am not trying to be cool by bragging about not knowing something, but I do think it's kind of neat that I am the only person I know that really did not know who Heath Ledger was really. I would hate if that's what you thought.

Here's what I posted instead:

Will I like it

That was WALL-E two weeks ago. It doesn't mean shit! It's definitely not a movie you would probably like. SKIP and go see Step Brothers next week!


Meanwhile, I was going to post in Please Don't Kill the Metal Thread a screen shot from Turtles In Time where you beat the Metal Turtle (Alley Cat Blues) and go "there I killed it, close thread", but I knew it wasn't worth pissing off some dangerous metal heads for a joke only few would get and fewer would see.

I saw Dark Knight on Friday and haven't posted anything about it because even though I thought it was well made and I liked it, I didn't feel like it was spectacularly good like people are saying. It just didn't connect with me on a personal, subjective level. I too didn't want to seem too cool for school, but even in going out of my way to try to believe it was really good, I couldn't feel anything more than "eh" when it was over. This might sound crazy, but I think Iron Man was actually the bestest super hero film I've ever seen so far.

[KevinLee]

Yeah I get it.
Best thread of the new board.
I've been diggin' some Early Conan lately, too.
Mad Props. Jixby=Coolest dude on the board. Stairway.

In the It's Always Sunny thread I was about to tell angryrobot:

"Bookmark bugmenot.com and shutup."

Then I erased it because that is kind of meen.

Wait, did you think it would be mean or did you think it sounded like something meen bellpeppers would say?

[slapstickeulogist]

Jokes!!

[Batman The Horse]

I shouldnt've posted that .

[yumitree]

there are a lot of times where i was going to post "OH THAT JIXBY!," but i didn't because jixby know what he did.

[Teaflax]

Shit, a good third of my posts are erased without sending. And that's not just here, but on most boards. It usually happens when I realize that I'm not adding anything to the conversation.

Sort of like this post, really.

[Ryebread]

Here's the advice from me: I had some second thoughts about copying and pasting Adam Hunter's blog in the Last Comic Standing thread and pretending that I had written it, but then I looked up at my "FUCK THE HATERS" poster that I made and hung over my workstation and decided to just let her rip.

There are a lot of tutorials in the net about making your own poster, so find one of those and get started and let's make this thread history.

Jixby,

To each his own.

What I'd like to post in the It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia thread

"Can you guys stop fucking bitching and get back on topic? This isn't the fucking hulu.com thread or whatever".

[KeithTalent]

That's funny, I was just going to start a thread about how terrible it is when people on the internet pretend like off-topic posts prevent them from saying stuff. I have many important things to say, but some other people having a brief sidebar has given me temporary rheumatism! Confound you, demon thread drift!

[eponymous]

(Kept from several threads, you know which ones i mean. . .)

Movies are little more than an Ode to Spectacle nowadays. No thought behind them whatsoever. Febrile fanboy escapism with a subhuman face. I've never been more bored by the idea of going to the movies. I may never go again.

there are a lot of times where i was going to post "OH THAT JIXBY!," but i didn't because jixby know what he did.

This sounds frighteningly like a Jack handy joke.

P.S.

After i wrote that i realized it was stupid and off topic, but then i realized what thread I was in and decided to post it anyway.
