[2000-08-09 11:27:00] - yeah, but affirmitive action hasn't cause any real problems(aside from a few isolted incidents here and there), so it's fine the way it is - miguel
[2000-08-09 11:26:00] - Yes I was kidding
- Aaron[2000-08-09 11:26:00] - Well maybe not. And Affirmative action has some advantages and disadvantages. - Aaron
[2000-08-09 11:26:00] - later = earlier. shit
[2000-08-09 11:25:00] - kidding i assume ~a
[2000-08-09 11:25:00] - i should start getting up later. some interesting discussion this morning - miguel
[2000-08-09 11:25:00] - I think we're all pro-life here. A woman's body is the sole property of god!
[2000-08-09 11:24:00] - doh ~a
[2000-08-09 11:24:00] - Republicans and Democrats are both the same, they just want to control different parts fo your life... -Paul
[2000-08-09 11:24:00] - there might be issuse brought up later that i care about . . . but i am boring !a
[2000-08-09 11:23:00] - abortion and afirmative action were the only two brought up so far that i have an opinion on (i think we all agree on the first one though, right?) ~a
[2000-08-09 11:23:00] - Browne's stand was very intruiging! I agree with government pulling out of certain things. - Aaron
[2000-08-09 11:22:00] - Name some issues you care about Adrian, I'm curious -Paul
[2000-08-09 11:22:00] - I'm here, we were in general agreement that you should "go along with everyone else and vote only republican or democrat"... So said you anyways
[2000-08-09 11:21:00] - Did you read Browne's stand on the issues Aaron? -Paul
[2000-08-09 11:21:00] - only only only (doh:)) ~a
[2000-08-09 11:21:00] - adrian is here but only cares about only a few issues ~a
[2000-08-09 11:20:00] - Aaron and Adrian were on but I think they fled from our superior arguements
-Paul[2000-08-09 11:20:00] - I'm still here, Aaron is here. - Aaron
[2000-08-09 11:19:00] - is it just you an me paul or are there other people here? - miguel
[2000-08-09 11:18:00] - i don't care about abortion
[2000-08-09 11:18:00] - Abortion!
[2000-08-09 11:17:00] - I don't think there is a single issue we can all agree on... -Paul
[2000-08-09 11:15:00] - I think it would be better if we all just got in a room and agreed with eachother.
[2000-08-09 11:14:00] - I think we should have a debate sometime at Tech, that would be fun
-Paul[2000-08-09 11:14:00] -
yum yum yum![2000-08-09 11:14:00] - Bye Aparna -Paul
[2000-08-09 11:13:00] - He forced them to deal with an "unstable element" if you will... -Paul
[2000-08-09 11:13:00] - anyway, i have to go do work.
talk to you all later. - aba[2000-08-09 11:12:00] - all perot did was take away a few votes from bush and clinton, but that was it.
[2000-08-09 11:12:00] - i am not a socialist
[2000-08-09 11:12:00] - Perot was up to like... %20 in Maine, right? Or was it %9?
[2000-08-09 11:12:00] - Perot had a pretty big effect... And nobody likes the socialist stance except socialists -Paul
[2000-08-09 11:11:00] - I like to eat money!
[2000-08-09 11:10:00] - nobody likes the libertarian stance except libertarians
[2000-08-09 11:09:00] - no third party has played a significant role in a presidential election in a very long time.
[2000-08-09 11:09:00] -
[2000-08-09 11:08:00] - so the time is ripe for a third party to make it big and I'm betting money on the Libertarians -Paul
[2000-08-09 11:08:00] - Survivor! Well, over 1/3 of the people who vote are independent and half the population doesn't vote because they don't like Democrats and Republicans
[2000-08-09 11:06:00] -
[2000-08-09 11:05:00] - then fuck them.
[2000-08-09 11:05:00] - i hate you
[2000-08-09 11:04:00] - If you don't go along with everyone else, then they'll vote you off the island.
[2000-08-09 11:04:00] - once again you misunderstand me. i would go ahead and vote for brown, but i know that everyone else will vote for either bush or gore.
[2000-08-09 11:04:00] - meow
[2000-08-09 11:02:00] - So we should go along with everyone else and vote only republican or democrat? I never realized you were so mainstream
-Paul[2000-08-09 11:00:00] - that's not what i meant. you know people in this country only vote for democrat or republic. it's just the way this country is
[2000-08-09 11:00:00] - If you're talking about results, it's about the same.
[2000-08-09 10:58:00] - Besides, you should at least vote. Voting for someone who has no chance is better then not voting at all -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:57:00] - So we should only vote for people who are going to win? Might as well all vote for Bush then -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:56:00] - too bad he isn't going to win
[2000-08-09 10:56:00] - i am back yo. we had a dept meeting. - aba
[2000-08-09 10:55:00] - Miguel, I suggest you go check out harry browne's web-page, you might like him www.harrybrowne2000.org -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:54:00] - me no like any of the candidates. - miguel
[2000-08-09 10:51:00] - I guess "ugly" in a thesaurus can be translated to "ugly as a scarecrow"??? Ha ha ha. - Aaron
[2000-08-09 10:51:00] - "ew he's ugly as a scarecrow. - aaron" - Aaron
[2000-08-09 10:49:00] - it's called "fuck" -paul
[2000-08-09 10:47:00] - It's called "issues" -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:47:00] - I think I meant to say bemoaning, is that a word? -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:47:00] - I don't vote for presidents based on looks, but when I went to his web page, I couldn't find any opinions, just pictures of him. - Aaron
[2000-08-09 10:47:00] -
[2000-08-09 10:47:00] - *Sigh* I would be "complaining" about the lack of female candidates.... Better? -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:45:00] - moaning, eh?
[2000-08-09 10:44:00] - I don't vote for president's based on looks. If I did, then I would be moaning the lack of female candidates -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:44:00] - we've gotten eight posts in a minute only once - 7-28 3:21p ~a
[2000-08-09 10:42:00] - Thanks Adrian. I dunno if I'll be voting for Browne or not. As long as I'm certain that Bush is winning Virginia, I probably will -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:41:00] - sorry, paul, i just saw your message. cool, yo ~a
[2000-08-09 10:40:00] - Ew he's ugly. - Aaron
[2000-08-09 10:39:00] - So you'll be voting for harry browne then?
[2000-08-09 10:39:00] - At least he's the closest match I could find -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:39:00] - The man who comes closest to sharing my opinions on issues is Harry Browne -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:38:00] - No I was just curious which president shared your opinions about video games and comic books - Aaron
[2000-08-09 10:37:00] - Does it matter who I am voting for, or are you trying to find dirt on my candidate?
-Paul[2000-08-09 10:35:00] - So who are you voting for? I've forgotten
[2000-08-09 10:31:00] - on a short leash but it doesn't stop him from making fun of Bush at every press conference -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:31:00] - All the Gore campaign has been really doing is attack, attack, attack. Even if they have nothing to attack. and Gore has been trying to keep Clinton
[2000-08-09 10:30:00] - and then he goes on about how Bush is in the pocket of Big Oil and the NRA and how he is a bad business man -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:28:00] - Gore is always saying that Bush would be a bad president because he would ruin the economy and he is only in the running because his Dad was president
[2000-08-09 10:28:00] - brb - aba
[2000-08-09 10:27:00] - hardly, clinton is more involved in his wife's campaign than gore's.
[2000-08-09 10:26:00] - where has gore used clinton in his campaign? what baseless attacks has he made? you yourself admitted that you are going on a gut feeling.
[2000-08-09 10:25:00] - Gore has used Clinton so much in his campaign. Fund raising, attacking Bush, trumpeting the economy... -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:25:00] - Name one thing I said that was untrue -paul
[2000-08-09 10:22:00] - statements about his campaign and platform.
[2000-08-09 10:22:00] - what baseless attacks? and gore has hardly used clinton in his campaign. paul, if you don't like him that's one thing, but you are making untrue
[2000-08-09 10:22:00] - Then he picks a VP with high moral standards to make up for his lack thereof -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:21:00] - I mean, look how he is running his campaign. Nothing but baseless attacks and he even has to call on Clinton to do his dirty work -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:19:00] - I just have a gut feeling that this man would be like having Quayle in Office except worse -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:19:00] - True, I can't speak for others. But I do think he would make a mess out of the presidency, although I have nothing to back that up with -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:18:00] - He says he is pro-environment and pro-business and pro-labor and pro-technology.... -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:18:00] - paul, give me an example where he lies or "fudges the truth"
[2000-08-09 10:17:00] - If you disagree with him on most issues, he's your worst choice for president, but not the worst choice...
[2000-08-09 10:17:00] - Because he does. Maybe not outright lies but he fudges the truth a lot -paul
[2000-08-09 10:15:00] - hahahahaha
[2000-08-09 10:15:00] - why do you say that he lies a lot?
[2000-08-09 10:15:00] - And he said to me, "Brodie, how the hell else am I supposed to get the gerbil out?" My cousin was a weird guy.
[2000-08-09 10:15:00] - picked Lieberman as his VP, possibly the worst choice if he wanted to try to get my vote seeing as his stance is even more against mine -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:15:00] - And I says to him, "Jesus Walt ! You know you're gonna get this cat stuck in your ass too. Why don't you knock it off ?"
[2000-08-09 10:13:00] - I've gone into this many times Aaron, Gore and I are polar opposites on most issues, he lies a lot, I don't think he is a very nice person and he
[2000-08-09 10:13:00] - yo quiero comida
[2000-08-09 10:11:00] - what are you talking about paul? why do you think that gore is all about lying?
[2000-08-09 10:11:00] - Why is gore bad for president? I see all this general stuff like "worst choice" and "he lies" but nothing specific, as usual. - Aaron
[2000-08-09 10:05:00] - paul isn't online
[2000-08-09 10:05:00] - I apologize, I suppose I should say worse politician.... Gore would do better then me, I can't lie good enough -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:03:00] - paul would make a good president - he just needs more speed
[2000-08-09 10:03:00] - moomoo
[2000-08-09 10:03:00] - i think you are the worst choice for president
[2000-08-09 10:03:00] - We should all watch "politically incorrect" at VT, it's a good show... -paul
[2000-08-09 10:01:00] - I'm sorry for all those gore-supporters out there but I think that Gore is possibly the worst choice for president -Paul
[2000-08-09 10:00:00] - I am stressed because I am very worried about the ramifications if Gore wins this election -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:58:00] - not you, just everybody in general. it's the end of the summer, and we'll all be stressed enough once classes start, why be stressed now?
[2000-08-09 09:57:00] - As opposed to a lot of people who tend to take the "ignorance is bliss" philosophy -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:55:00] - As for paranoid, I like to think of it more as informed as to what's going on around me -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:55:00] - Am I really that uptight? I always liked to think of myself as rather laid back but everyone tells me I am very uptight... -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:54:00] - arron! dang, when did you get so many posts
~a[2000-08-09 09:52:00] - and paranoid
[2000-08-09 09:52:00] - you guys are very uptight
[2000-08-09 09:48:00] - I need valium? Any particular reason why? -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:44:00] - Movies aren't really in danger of being censored because nearly everyone watched movies, computer games are in much more danger... -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:43:00] - or e
[2000-08-09 09:43:00] - i think you all need some valium
[2000-08-09 09:38:00] - I think movies work out fairly well-dave
[2000-08-09 09:35:00] - I think it is done by the MPAA, which I believe is the movie makers themselves, although I could be wrong -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:33:00] - is the rating of movies done by the govt or consumer groups? -dave
[2000-08-09 09:30:00] - Oh, and it would be nice if the government had no part in it. Consumer groups would do a better job -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:28:00] - I have no problem with warning labels, as long as they stay warning labels and nothing more -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:27:00] - And all I'm saying is forcing stores to stop selling certain games and outright banning others is bad -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:26:00] - http://www.cnn.com/2000/NATURE/08/07/norway.monster/index.html
[2000-08-09 09:25:00] - All I'm saying is the content-warning-label cashier-common-sense system is pretty good. - Aaron
[2000-08-09 09:25:00] - I agree with Dave 110% on that... -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:24:00] - country can be-dave
[2000-08-09 09:23:00] - i agree that the us is better than other countries in a lot of things. but that does not mean we should not strive to become the best our...-dave
[2000-08-09 09:23:00] - So don't you think we should keep it that way? -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:23:00] - With Carmageddon 2, all over the UK and in other countries they had to replace people with robots + zombies... - Aaron
[2000-08-09 09:22:00] - US is like the only country which is going to allow Carmageddon 3 to be released with non-zombie pedestrians. - Aaron
[2000-08-09 09:22:00] - what it needs to-dave
[2000-08-09 09:22:00] - it's true, the govt has a tendency to expand it's sphere of influence, and the public needs to keep on making sure it only regulates...-dave
[2000-08-09 09:22:00] - The US is way, way, WAY more polite regarding video game censorship than other countries, anyways! - Aaron
[2000-08-09 09:21:00] - Things are ok the way they are.... but they are on the verge of becoming very bad if we don't fight for freedom -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:20:00] - the problem is, as i'm sure everyone would agree, the whole minor - major thing -dave
[2000-08-09 09:20:00] - I agree, more porn in computer games!
-Paul[2000-08-09 09:20:00] - Dave - I'm not the one who said that parents are responsible! I say things are good the way they are. - Aaron
[2000-08-09 09:19:00] - Watch it Dave, you're starting to sound like one of us
-Paul[2000-08-09 09:19:00] - well, the govt should probably keep the same policy on porn in computer games as porn out on magazine stands -dave
[2000-08-09 09:18:00] - paul's right. the govt is not supposed to be our nanny. just supposed to make sure we are free to practice our rights...not take away from them -dave
[2000-08-09 09:17:00] - So the question becomes Dave, do you believe that government should censor computer games? -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:16:00] - that's why they'd rather have criminals walking the streets along with the innocent as opposed to the innocent in jail with the criminals -dave
[2000-08-09 09:15:00] - Censorship is not the government's concern unless it involves matters of national security, it's the responsibility of the parents -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:15:00] - and this country has had a long-standing policy of erring on the side of letting too much pass as to not encroach on others rights -dave
[2000-08-09 09:14:00] - The problem with the government is that it has no right saying what a parent should want for their kid -Paul
[2000-08-09 09:14:00] - so how can they censor some things without encroaching on the rights of others? <shrug> -dave
[2000-08-09 09:13:00] - besides, the problem with the govt is that they have no way of figuring out what every single parents wants for their kids -dave
[2000-08-09 09:13:00] - i don't think it is any of the govt's business, but I can see why they might try to do something. -dave
[2000-08-09 09:08:00] - ...that parents these days sometimes only see their kids on the weekend. So now the govt is trying to compensate. -dave
[2000-08-09 09:07:00] - I think that Aaron and Miguel have a valid point about parents being the people who are responsible...but the problem is...-Dave
[2000-08-09 08:19:00] - And some people need to keep a more open mind methinks... (I know, I am guilty of this as well, making me a hypocrit) -Paul
[2000-08-09 08:18:00] - I say opinion because some of you act as if your opinions are fact and everyone else's are wrong just by default -Paul
[2000-08-09 08:17:00] - Attacking the person does not work, in order to debate a point you have to present your opinion and back it up with facts -Paul
[2000-08-09 08:16:00] - I don't intend any offense, but some of you people need to learn how to make an effective arguement -Paul
[2000-08-09 08:11:00] - http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A58646-2000Aug8.html
[2000-08-08 23:08:00] -
[2000-08-08 23:01:00] - At least, what you were saying before was that a kid could view anything he wanted, and if his parents didn't like his choices, fuck them? - Aaron
[2000-08-08 22:54:00] - "prefer that the parents draw the line...?" I thought you said that nobody could draw that line, that first amendment said nothing about age... - Aaro
[2000-08-08 19:10:00] - they're kind of old articles but i think they prove my point
[2000-08-08 19:10:00] - http://www.theroc.org/updates/gilkey.htm
[2000-08-08 19:09:00] - http://www.theroc.org/updates/mansont2.htm
[2000-08-08 19:02:00] - eak - miguel
[2000-08-08 19:02:00] - actually i would draw the line on what a kid can see or not, but i would prefer that the parents draw that line and not some close-minded religious fr
[2000-08-08 17:53:00] - I think we pretty much agree to disagree...You don't care if 4-year-old kids see T+A and we prefer protecting them until they're old enough... - Aaron
[2000-08-08 17:06:00] - rats, i enjoy a good argument. too bad people left.
[2000-08-08 17:06:00] - just me and you i think - miguel
[2000-08-08 17:04:00] - So, who's left?
[2000-08-08 17:02:00] - Hmm, I wrote 20....
[2000-08-08 17:01:00] - We'll see, 10 years from now we'll meet again, you bring your kids, and I'll still be a bachelor. - Xpovos
[2000-08-08 17:00:00] - fuck it. i'm going home. your kids are going to be very messed up if you don't learn how to bring them up properly. - aba
[2000-08-08 17:00:00] - why wouldn't it?
[2000-08-08 17:00:00] - yes it does
[2000-08-08 16:59:00] - yes, but you start of with little things first like your mommy scolding you before you can learn to deal with stuff like dead people - aba
[2000-08-08 16:59:00] - no it does not.
[2000-08-08 16:59:00] - seeing people in q3 explode into bloody shapeless masses does have an effect on kids. - aba
[2000-08-08 16:58:00] - You learn... how do you think you learn how to deal with scarring? You get scarred!
[2000-08-08 16:58:00] - maybe when you get older, but not when you are very young. you don't know how to deal with stuff like that when you are little. - aba
[2000-08-08 16:57:00] - Yes. I agree, the emotional scarring is more damaging than physical. But both are an important part of learning to be a human adult. - Xpovos
[2000-08-08 16:57:00] - while i agree that kids should be protected from some stuff, i don't see how a marilyn manson cd or Quake 3 is going to scar him for life.
[2000-08-08 16:56:00] - look, if you take a 5 year old kid and show them a video tape of somebody getting beaten to death they will be worse off than if they burn themself.
[2000-08-08 16:55:00] - If that were the case I'd be dead today -<i> Xpovos
[2000-08-08 16:55:00] - emotional and psychological scarring can have more of an effect on kids than physical scarring. - aba
[2000-08-08 16:54:00] - no, that's not true. when you are younger what doesn't kill you doesn't make you stronger, it makes you weaker. - aba
[2000-08-08 16:54:00] - anyway, computer and video games don't really need all these warning labels. you could pretty much guess what the game is about just by looking at it
[2000-08-08 16:53:00] - Scarring is part of life: Whatever doesn't kill me will only make me stronger.
[2000-08-08 16:53:00] - bye aaron
[2000-08-08 16:53:00] - We can talk later, Aparna! This is good.
[2000-08-08 16:53:00] - I agree completely, Aparna
[2000-08-08 16:53:00] - That's the nice thing about my job... I only have to drive 3 miles.
[2000-08-08 16:53:00] - Bye bye everybody! - Aaron
[2000-08-08 16:53:00] - you guys are being silly. if you don't limit kids you will scar them for life. they need to be protected until they can take care of themselves. - aba
[2000-08-08 16:52:00] - Well I have to go or I'm going to miss rush hour!
[2000-08-08 16:52:00] - Ohhhhh it was a trick question!
[2000-08-08 16:51:00] - Neither, kids these days hate fruit.
[2000-08-08 16:51:00] - That depends on how he is raised! Plenty of kids would do the right thing and eat the nonlabeled fruit
[2000-08-08 16:50:00] - ...maybe if I had been, I wouldn't take movie choosing freedom for granted? Who knows. - Aaron
[2000-08-08 16:50:00] - a kid sees 2 fruits, one labeled "FORBIDDEN", and one with nothing labeled on it, which do you think he's going to choose?
[2000-08-08 16:50:00] - Well again, I'm speaking from a biased standpoint. I was never really restricted from my movie choices, so.... - Aaron
[2000-08-08 16:49:00] - ning process I'm talking about!
[2000-08-08 16:49:00] - But I'm not going to do that for him. If he wants to see that he'll have to do it himself, it's his choice, he needs to do it, that's part of the lear
[2000-08-08 16:49:00] - it's very true indeed.
[2000-08-08 16:48:00] - We don't restrict coca-cola, and it is in most cases more enticing. What do you not understand? - Aaron
[2000-08-08 16:48:00] - "besides, if we restrict things from kids, that makes it all the more enticing to them - miguel"
[2000-08-08 16:48:00] - Well if your kid really wants to see it, you can always rent "Erotic Pleasures 4" for him, that's still legal. - Aaron
[2000-08-08 16:48:00] - But we don't restrict coca-cola
[2000-08-08 16:47:00] - That's a generalization and it is false. Many kids are more enticed by coca-cola than by alcohol.
[2000-08-08 16:47:00] - But even if I decide I would rather my child not watch something I won't go all pissy-whiny when he does against my will. That'll be his choice.
[2000-08-08 16:46:00] - And if you shelter kids from everything that you consider "evil" that kids is going to freak when he gets to college.
[2000-08-08 16:45:00] - Besides, if we restrict things from kids, that makes it all the more enticing to them - miguel
[2000-08-08 16:45:00] - Kids are not very dependant on their parents... ! I know when I was in middle school I could bike to the local blockbuster and rent movies. - Aaron
[2000-08-08 16:45:00] - I won't force any on them, but I don't think I'll insist that they can't watch. There's a learning experience there that cannot be denied.
[2000-08-08 16:44:00] - Well when you're a parent, if you want, you can show your 10-year old son all the guts and boobs you want. The gov't can't stop you... - Aaron
[2000-08-08 16:44:00] - it's very hard to do things without needing your parents until you have a job or can drive.
[2000-08-08 16:43:00] - Sure they can. Kids are very dependant on their parents till about high school.
[2000-08-08 16:43:00] - make sure they learn from their mistakes' that's a parent's job.
[2000-08-08 16:43:00] - Kids can get to movie theatres and rental places on their own, parents sometimes have to go to work, etc.... - Aaron
[2000-08-08 16:43:00] - The kid has just as much free will as any one else, as evidence by their tendency to try and do things we restrict... Let them do as they wish, but
[2000-08-08 16:43:00] - miguel is here talking.
[2000-08-08 16:42:00] - Sorry, Adrian, I can't sign my signature because most of my posts are just under 150 characters long - Aaron
[2000-08-08 16:42:00] - Parents are always whining that their kids are being exposed to all this stuff, when they are the ones who should be keeping them from it
[2000-08-08 16:42:00] - Three, I think, - Xpovos
[2000-08-08 16:42:00] - Parents can't possibly keep their kids from renting certain kinds of movies on their own! There's no way!
[2000-08-08 16:42:00] - what two people are talking? ~a
[2000-08-08 16:41:00] - Besides, if the parents want to keep him from that stuff, it's THEIR responsibility. The government should not be allowed to the baby-sitting for the
[2000-08-08 16:41:00] - I didn't say he'd enjoy it, I don't expect him to.
[2000-08-08 16:40:00] - Well I know when I was 10 I would not have probably enjoyed Akira! It's got boobs and guts and rape and teeth!
[2000-08-08 16:40:00] - So, he learns a valuable lesson.
[2000-08-08 16:40:00] - till a citizen
[2000-08-08 16:39:00] - why not. the first amendment says that i can listen or watch whatever i want to. there is no "age-clause". just because your not an adult, you're s
[2000-08-08 16:39:00] - He might just want it because he's seen dragonball Z on cartoon network, and thinks he likes anime, then he sees akira expecting the same.... Bad!
[2000-08-08 16:39:00] - I'd let a ten year old rent Akira.
[2000-08-08 16:39:00] - Why?
[2000-08-08 16:38:00] - But if a 10 year old kid comes into blockbuster wanting to rent Akira because he likes anime, that's not generally a good idea to rent to him...
[2000-08-08 16:37:00] - Yes, age restrictions should be lower, I agree. Like 15 is definitely low enough.
[2000-08-08 16:37:00] - and also the labeling system on cds is very inconsistent
[2000-08-08 16:36:00] - Perhaps parents shouldn't get so pissed.
[2000-08-08 16:35:00] - and there are albums that are stickered for no reason at all
[2000-08-08 16:35:00] - and i think that the age restriction for r-movies should be lower
[2000-08-08 16:35:00] -
[2000-08-08 16:34:00] - if the kid wants to buy a marilyn manson album, it's his right to. if his parents have a problem with that, the kid just tells them to fuck off.
[2000-08-08 16:33:00] - And the "Parental Warning Stickers" are hard to come by, they're only on extremely offensive material. - Aaron
[2000-08-08 16:33:00] - Parents get extremely pissed when their kids hear/see stuff which is extremely verbose or violent. - Aaron
[2000-08-08 16:32:00] - If a kid shows up in a record store alone, how can we know if it's ok with his mom if he hears "a lap dance is better when the hooker is crying" ...!
[2000-08-08 16:31:00] - Well, kids aren't allowed into R-rated movies either, it's for a very good reason.
[2000-08-08 16:30:00] - they show up in the archives because & and < are cut out before they go into the file now . . . makes it easier on the web server ~a
