7 great twitter fights. Number three is my favourite. Can’t believe he said that!!![/QUOTE]
Deleting Facebook was one of the most liberating things I ever did… You’d still end up clicking into these headlines now and again and waste minutes/hours you can never get back.

Freedom of speech is fine. Regurgitation of material from Social Media and passing it off as ‘journalism’ is utter bollox.

[QUOTE=“fucked out, post: 1068807, member: 1495”]'Twas a war not a game of tig.

Even smart bombs kill civilians. I’m not condoning any civilian deaths in the north by the way but anyone trying to compare the activities of the IRA in the north would really want to educate themselves about what’s going on in the cause of Islam at the moment.
I might post up a few more of their many, many gory videos and pictures of it helps.[/QUOTE]
Please don’t. Please.

I just get irked by the stupidity of the general public mate. Its one of the reasons why I like TFK so much.

[QUOTE=“TheUlteriorMotive, post: 1068834, member: 2272”]The Islamists have ratcheted things up but ultimately it is same mindset - cause terror to provoke a response in order to achieve their aims.

The only difference is the IRA were based in a western democracy where public opinion didn’t tolerate blowing up kids (but it happened), torturing women (but it happened). In Jslamic world that public opinion is not there to act as a brake so anything goes.

It’s a propaganda war. It was then too. but Islamists don’t have western sensibilities so more outrageous the violence the better. It is still violence aimed at innocents to create terror and provoke a response to achieve their aims.[/QUOTE]
And ye ultimate aim, as always, is status and power for the leaders. Religion is only an excuse.

They could do with rebranding to remove the ‘Joe’ bit from the name however as anything associated with that dirge loses credibility in my eyes. Then again, most of us on this site tend to be in the minority on these type of things and the general public lap up these sites - I’ll never understand why.[/QUOTE]
We’re pretty awesome alright. It dawned on me last night while sitting in a room with people guffawing at a shit joke that I belong in the very upper percentile of people in the world when it comes to humour and intelligence.

[QUOTE=“TheUlteriorMotive, post: 1068924, member: 2272”]I didn’t say all Muslims. I said Islamists/the Islamic World. Islamic world being Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Oman, Qatar, Saudi, Syria, Tunisia, UAE (could add in parts Pakistan too). Majority in most of these countries are in favour of sharia law and believe it should apply in all Muslim countries. Sharia law stones rape victims and cuts off limbs/blinds people as a punishment. If they are not outraged by stoning a rape victim do you think they will be outraged by shooting a cartoonist who mocked their God.

I’m calling bullshit on this, especially the Egypt figures.

Watch the newsroom pal, you’d love it. And also see that mbb was shamelessly plagiarising it earlier, before relenting and referencing it in a subsequent post.

The Joker won first prize for this in a painting competition in the Batman TV series. I think The Beatles ripped it off.

Typical accountant.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from recent unfortunate news events, it’s that there’s an oppurtunity to make a real name for yourself on Twitter by creating a viral #hashtag in solidarity with the victims. This is what I will be doing full-time from now on.

Where can I find this ‘Newsroom’ and how come I’d never heard of it before?

481

Its on tv mate

Edit: what a terrible quip. Damn you accountancy. Its on sky Atlantic so if you have on demand fast wifi and no limits(and sky) you can download it. Or you can buy season one or two, theres greats torrents of it on KAT. If you can access that. As mbb said, its a bit self righteous, sorkin-style, but i found it excellent regarding media reporting and the stupification of it. Theres also a few office romances thrown in which really tug at the heartstrings.
