I've seen worse, Andy deleted her sig once over this thread. This time I think everyone should add it just to annoy those who don't like it. That's why Don has an age limit, by the time you're 14 you have already been subjected to this kind of stuff and worse especially if you're on the internet.

If you write in something as harmless as Barbie in Google image search you'll find some vile things if you go through the pages.

Quoted from FilmMaker06 I don't really see how I'm narrow minded and your not. I mean, I don't like the sig and I told you why. You like the sig and told me why. Why aren't you narrow minded as well? You like it I hate it. We're the same just have different point of views. If you weren't so narrow minded you'd look at things from my point of view and accept them, as you want me to do with your views. So I'm not being no more narrow minded than you are. =Me The only difference with me and you is that you can delete this post but I can't delete yours. And delete this you will.

Christopher,

You did not read through all the posts and the information available in this thread before you began calling Andy's sig 'porn'.  You simply reacted to what you saw outside the cultural context which I provided.  

Don

Quoted from FilmMaker06 The only difference with me and you is that you can delete this post but I can't delete yours.

No, there is another big difference, J.F.:

The other big difference is that this is Don's house, and if you play here, you gotta play by his rules.

He doesn't have to give a hoot what you think.  He might, but he doesn't have to.

You really need to move on and let this one go.  Honestly.  It is not casting you in a favorable light.

Plus in the Rules it doesn't say anything about having nuts in your signature; it doesn't actually say anything that says you can't swear, use a Tanuki or anything along those lines.

It doesn't even say you have to be a screenwriter to be a member, I think maybe that's common sense.

Heyyy! Just a comment here, may I? So thanks! Now a Flash back:

Don (vo)
I grew up in Korea and spend a large part of my adult life in Japan and China - all told about 15 years.  You pick up a bit of trivia.  I received a small Tanuki statue from a Catholic nun when I was ten.  She gave it to me because I reminded her of a tanuki (not for his testicular attributes, but because the tanuki is a trickster and at ten years old I was always playing pranks on her.)  I think it is humorously ironic that tanuki is causing this uproar on the site.  

I tried to prevent the uproar by making a temporary point about equality (that I was going to delete after the point was made to certain key people), and then I locked the thread.  I came back when enough time had passed -- I was about to delete that point and keep the thread locked, but I was banned for a little while and demoted from my rank as moderator.  For more information about tanukis, see the movie POM POKO.  Brilliant film; it explains their cultural significance.  However, in the english version of POM POKO, the tanukis are referred to as raccoons.  The movie POM POKO is a good explaination, though; however, my only concern with the sig came AFTER Andy started laughing at people, and insulting people, because they were offended by the sig.  But I was personally furious after Andy said she wanted to go into a men's restroom and drool at large testicles.  The way she worded it WAS funny ... then I realised the kind of damage that joke could do in the long run.  Long story short, a lot less people would have hurt feelings about this topic if I weren't demoted from my rank of moderator in this area.

Peace.

Alan if Don were to tell the real reason you lost your Mod badge you might reword that post...

I vaguely remember that post by Andy but seriously if a girl walked into the men’s room to look at balls would you really tell them to get out? It's a great way to break the ice for future conversations.

Also the fact it was a JOKE and jokes are not meant to be taken seriously which it seems like you have.

Quoted from Old Time Wesley Alan if Don were to tell the real reason you lost your Mod badge you might reword that post...

I posted bouncing breasts and wrote a point about equality.  Please tell me this "real" reason so we can debate it.  I tried to have this debate earlier but it looks like my posts were deleted.

Alan, I was joking before about the men's room. You're totally misquoting me and taking what I said the wrong way. I commented after Phil said something funny about the men's room and took it further by joking about it. You've made me out to be some kind of sexist sod. Don't you dare tell me you are furious with me for anything when you were so blatently rude to me in emails after the event. You don't deserve to be a moderator after the way you behaved because of this. Move on. There's no need for a debate and if you want to do it, do it in a private email, instead of in here.

Wes, I did indeed wander on into the men's room once. Gave the first guy I saw a heart attack. It was totally by mistake that I did that, in a Pizza Hut of all places and never laughed so hard in my life at that point!! I was 10 and it was my birthday and my family and I were crying with laughter about it. I love that memory

Andy

I love the Tanuki.

I smile every single time I see it, without exception.

I hope it never goes away.

(note:  all 3 of these sentences are also true of Andy    Even if she is a sexist sod.)

Thank you, Bert. You made me feel very special just now, I mean that  

*hugs*

Andy x

PS - "craftsmanship" - yeah, right, sure... LMAO!  

Within my reply to an e-mail you sent, I said "F**k you, Andy".  

I might not have that much candor on the board, but at least I was honest.  

I also made some points in the e-mail.  Contradict them or quit starting arguments.

Breasts are more porn like than fake cartoony nuts without a penis may I add, end of debate.

Since this is a writing website I don't even know why we need to have these conversations, this is why I asked Don to not allow people on these boards for awhile just to see who wants to be here and who is only here to play on these boards.

Between this and the mindless Horror conversation we might as well delete the screenplay threads and just chat about stupid crap for the rest of our time because I feel like I'm back in 2nd grade listening to guys giggling over the fact that they can curse.

(Andy - I might have done that before, in Public School the other guys would always stuff the weaker guy (Me) into the girls washroom and not let him out until the girls came by to say "Eww")

Quoted from Old Time Wesley Breasts are more porn like than fake cartoony nuts without a penis may I add, end of debate.

I disagree.  The "nuts" produce half of a baby's genetic material.  The breasts only produce food, and the baby might eat formula anyway.  Therefore, nuts are more relevant to the reproductive act than breasts.  The more relevant to the reproductive act a body part is, the more likely it is that the only genre of film you'll find it in is porn.  

Human breasts are in kids' cartoons, such as RANMA 1/2 ... but the only time I've seen testicles in a kids' cartoon was when they were animal testicles, in the movie POM POKO.  You will see more live action human testicles in X rated movies, than you will in G rated movies.  

I wonder if anyone in the Far East would laugh any of their body parts off if they knew this discussion was even taking place.
