Ensendada Slim 480 Posted February 6, 2015 To be fair...I own the complete library of Orwell's published works...I think we should...have their extreme negativity speak for itself. "If you want a vision of the future, imagine a wolf gnawing on a human ear forever" -Orwell, a name that I definitely recognize and whose work I have assuredly read 3 Share this post Link to post

Ensendada Slim 480 Posted February 6, 2015 I always thought it was weird how he named the evil character after himself. Right, I read those passages and it's like, hellooo, Creative Writing 101 much? "It was a cold day in April, and the clocks were striking 13" Umm, last time I checked Evil George Orwell, clocks only went up to 12 2 Share this post Link to post

Life lesson, anytime you point out that something is incorrect, you'll be shot down with "But that's how its done in Europe!" It must be so great over there. Sorry, "Over their." 4 Share this post Link to post

samschilling22 516 Posted February 6, 2015 Clem Dawg and Hayzie Bone, is it okay if I go look at the Lauren Lapkus forum now? 8 Share this post Link to post
chanson 9697 Posted February 6, 2015 You guys, I hear there are some sweet dive bars with killer live music over on the Lauren Lapkus podcast forum... Don't tell anyone else though because I don't want it to get played out or whatever. PS - They could really use a store selling only organic food that the people on that forum cannot dream of affording. And a Starbucks... I know local coffee shops have better coffee but they take too long and plus, what if the one that opens sucks? I don't have time to wait for another one to open so that I can get good coffee. Seriously. Also, maybe if they just replaced Lauren Lapkus with Sean and Hayes it would be better! Enthusiasm for change! It'll be like Hollywood Handbook but with nice old brick architecture! 6 Share this post Link to post

robinsbruce 4985 Posted February 6, 2015 We post here because it is the only place we can get away with this sort of nonsense. That's just my humble, non-joke opinion. 3 Share this post Link to post

Spunky Foonerism 8561 Posted February 6, 2015 I'm pretty inspired by how much fun energy and comedic goodness was generated in this thread by random angry guys barging in. To foster more of that sort of positive interaction, i think we should meet up in the forum of a different podcast each week to annoy and alienate people (by being awesome and hilarious in our own unmistakable way). That way, they'll come here, say mean stuff to us, and then we'll all laugh and be better friends than ever! Seriously, though, it seems like each angry guy inspired several first-time-long-times to get off their butts and make an Earwolf account, so they could reset the karmic balance with their excellent first posts. So that actually is a pretty sweet side benefit of angry guys. Maybe we really DO need villains. 6 Share this post Link to post

I don't mind people coming here to try and get our goats, but we really can't just spam other podcast's forums. It's one thing to create 20 pages of dumb jokes that the mods have to sift through in these threads, but it's pretty unfair to make them do that for other podcasts. Mods is peoples too, and they certainly aren't getting paid full-time to deal with us. Again, sorry for being so non-fun but if we want this thing to be OK we do have to kind of keep it in some sort of bounds. 11 Share this post Link to post

And I think they SHOULD be paid full-time. Just take it out of some of the pro-version $$. 2 Share this post Link to post

Spunky Foonerism 8561 Posted February 6, 2015 All I ever wanted to do was have fun and laughing with my friends (including mods), and to defeat angry guys. And frankly, just trying to keep track of posts on this thread and the TGIGOTGOST thread has been exhausting, I shudder to think about participating in even more forums. I don't like to admit I was wrong, but I AM very good at admitting i was wrong. Just please don't make me do it here in front of everyone. 5 Share this post Link to post
