oh yes, me?...get mad? not hardly, i'm still playing, and being quite nice about it since you all are just kids that don't know any better
so how about we try and discuss what the Thread is about?
i am gathering that you don't agree with big Al about this CD...
so tell us why you think the disk is good, rather than doing the juvvy wanna be bullshit, and we can discuss it on the merits of the material itself
you down with that or scared to do the dozens in the mental Arena on the subject of Music?
(somebody get Suss some munchies, while i school the kiddies)
Excelsior!

"The kiddies", as gonzo called them, struck back the very next day with 17-year old Brie creaming Mr Barger with her Comment #78, this distinctly uncheesy Comment of the Day for Tuesday 27th December 2005
Al:
I read your article and I have to say that you pose a few good points. I'm glad that you admitted that you were a 43 year old white male and even said "what do I know about what makes a good r&b boy band?" I think that was very humble of you.I have to say though, I am neutral to what you brought out in your statements. I am a fan of Pretty Ricky although I think that some of thier songs can be offensive. (then why tha heck do I listen to them? i dont know!) I even think that music is deteriorating as I write this message. BUT I think that it's wrong for you to attack a boy band.
I mean, do you really have that much time in the world to listen to a group of 17 year olds sing about sex and then write about how bad of group you think they are? Are you really trying to pull that cheap stunt to draw attention to yourself and create a link for the angry teens to go to? (I hate to feed your ego and reply to what you wrote, but I just couldnt help myself). I think you should just let them be a bad group. (since you think that way). Why does that bother you so much? Why waste your time and get your blood pressure all up just because you dont like a boy band?
I also think that these statements you made: "yunguns who might give you a good cussin" and "I ain't feeling all that especially brave, though. I ain't scared of some herd of illiterate teenagers. What are they going to do, street slang me to death?" were wrong. I am highly offended! I mean, after reading an article that was so well written and argued, I would think you were a much better person than that. Obviously im wrong.






Article comments
1 - gonzo marx
i don't know whether to be amused or dismayed that out of all my ranting and raving, Christopher chose this one

Excelsior!
2 - Brie
Christopher:
This article is very well written! I blushed the whole time through!
Thanks
3 - Scott Butki
I really like this idea of giving people attention for writing comments.
But I'm confused - is it comment of the day or comment of the week? I thought the former but when I click on comment of day link i say one per week.
4 - Christopher Rose
It's currently formatted as 7 comments of the day in one weekly column. Would you prefer it if each day's post was a separate entry?
5 - Aaman
I think this is better, but perhaps the title could change - COTW - Comments of the Week
6 - Scott Butki
Will we be contacted if we're selected?
I keep meaning to go back to read the first four to see if I got picked.
Yeah I know it's all about me, me, me
7 - Christopher Rose
How about BlogCritics Comments of the Week? Would that be better
beetlegooglejuice..?8 - Aaman
boogle-juice
9 - Christopher Rose
so you like that suggestion?
10 - Scott Butki
Much better.
As a former professional writer/editor I get picky sometimes. Sorry about that
Don't get the beetlejuice vs googlejuice thing.
11 - Scott Butki
Have I missed comments 6 or 7 or are you on holiday?
I appreciate the column you put together for this.
