I also worship Dr. Manhattan, because his dick is big and blue, like Papa Smurf on steroids.

***English translation follows

Comment ça va ma p'tite soeur?
Viens que j'te serre dans mes bras
Pis, as-tu r'trouvé l'bonheur
Dans ton trip au Canada?
Dans l'bout' c't'année y s'est pas passé grand'chose...
C't'un peu morose...

J'espère au moins qu'c't'ait l'fun là-bas
Chu fier que tu m'aies pas ramené
Un beau-frère de l'Alberta
Ça m'aurait un peu ébranlé
Jure-moi donc que c'fois là tu restes à' maison... pour de bon

Anyway chu content que tu r'viennes
T'arrives en même temps qu'l'automne
Tsé qu'ça m'a fait ben d'la peine
De t'voir partir ma mignonne...

Icitte y'a papa qui se r'met de sa p'tite opération
T'aurais dû l'voir, y feakait, Fallait l'traiter aux p'tits oignons
Et môman s'est inquièté toute l'année
À cause de toé...

De mon bord j'ai décidé
D'arrêter de végéter
J'rentre à l'université
On verra c'que ça va donner
Mais tu m'connais chu pas motivé plus qui faut
C'est pas nouveau...

Anyway chu content que tu r'viennes
T'arrives en même temps qu'l'automne
Tsé qu'ça m'a fait ben d'la peine
De t'voir partir ma mignonne...

J'ai vu Simon le mois passé
Ç'avait pas trop l'air de filer
Y m'a dit qu't'avais pas appelé
Depuis sa fête en février
Si tu l'aimes pus faudrait peut-être pas l'niaiser
C't'un bon buddy

Et puis toé ma p'tite soeur
Es-tu toujours aussi perdue?
C'est ti encore la grande noirceur?
Ou ben si t'as r'pris le dessus?
Tsé qu'la vie est parsemée de p'tites misères
Faut pas t'en faire...

Anyway chu content que tu r'viennes
T'arrives en même temps qu'l'automne
Tsé qu'ça m'a fait ben d'la peine
De t'voir partir ma mignonne...

Anyway chu content que tu r'viennes
T'arrives en même temps qu'l'automne

How's it going little sister?
Come so that I can hug you
So, did you rediscover happiness
On your trip to Canada?
Back here nothing much happened this year...
It was a bit morose...

I hope at least it was fun down there
I'm proud that didn't bring me
A brother-in-law from Alberta
That would have bothered me a bit
Swear that this time you're staying home...for good

Anyway I'm glad you came back
You came with the autumn
You know it really made me grieve
To see you go my cutie...

Here there's papa recovering from his little operation
You should have seen him freaking out, had to treat him like royalty
And mama worried all year
Because of you

For my part I decided
To stop being a bum
I'm going back to university
We'll see what happens
But you know me I'm not motivated more than I need to be
That's not new...

Anyway I'm glad you came back
You came with the autumn
You know it really made me grieve
To see you go my cutie...

I saw Simon last month
Didn't seem to feel too good
He told me that you hadn't called him
Since his birthday in February
If you don't like him anymore maybe you shouldn't string him along
He's a good buddy

And you my little sister
Are you still as lost as before?
Is it still doom and gloom?
Or have you gotten control of it?
You know that life is littered with little miseries
No need to worry...

Anyway I'm glad you came back
You came with the autumn
You know it really made me grieve
To see you go my cutie...

Anyway I'm glad you came back
You came with the autumn

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I apologize if you think I'm being insensitive. It's certainly not my intention. I thought maybe a quick "suck it up" could act as a verbal jolt to help you out a bit. You're obviously feeling aggrieved here. A couple of points I'd like to communicate:

1. If you're going to have a sensitivity dysfunction- "over sensitive" is preferable to "under".
2. Comparing BT to a lactating woman, and other female oriented slurs is kind of mysoginistic- it makes female traits into something unfavorable. It's disappointing to read this from you.
3. I appreciate your contributions to the community, but it's also disappointing to read you bring money into your arguments- as if I would let that be a factor in trying to make fair admin decisions for the community.



In reply to this comment by blankfist:
So, I'm hobbled for baiting BT? Wow. I guess that feminine lady-man needs a papa to take up for him. Oh shit, was that also considered "baiting"? FUCK! I really suck at your rules!

Quit trying to turn yourself into a martyr, suck it up and take a deep breath.

No offense, Dag, but you ain't exactly the sweetest most understanding "ruler". You were a dick during your "Siftler" days, and the fact that you ask me to "suck it up" is appalling. I wish I could PM to say this, but I cannot during my hobble, so I have to air all my grievances in the open... I've donated a lot of money to this site and I've been a steady charter (purposely updated recently so I can pay the full amount instead of the BS 10 dollars a year or whatever the fuck it used to be).

Sorry if you think I'm playing the martyr, but I think you're a bit insensitive and unreasonable. And BT is a cry baby.

In reply to this comment by dag:
I thought I made this clear. I'm not hobbling you for being a racist. I don't think you are a racist. I'm hobbling you for repeatedly baiting a fellow Sifter- being grossly insensitve to another human being.

You can point out all the bad words on the Sift that you want. It's not about that- it's about being a jerk to another human being. Quit trying to turn yourself into a martyr, suck it up and take a deep breath.

I could buy that it was a Mozart piece. Still, I'd like to hear what ruled out papa leopold too.

Papa Roach - Last Resort

Big Papa Bear Bill O'Reilly bellyfeel doubleplusgood ingsoc uscap.

I was born in Lil' Rock,
Had a childhood sweetheart,
We were always hand in hand.

I was hightop shoes and shirt tails,
Suzy was in pig tails,
I know I loved her even then.

You know my papa disapproved it,
My mama boohooed it,
But I told them time and time again,
"Don't you know I was made to love her,
Built a world all around her"
Yah! Hey, hey, hey.

She's been my inspiration,
Showed appreciation
For the love I gave her through the years.

Like a sweet magnolia tree
My love blossmed tenderly,
My life grew sweeter through the years.

I know that my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
That's why we made it through the years.

I was made to love her,
Worship and adore her,
Hey, hey, hey.

All through thick and thin
Our love just won't end,
'Cause I love my baby, love my baby. Ah!

My baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
And I know I ain't going nowhere.

I was knee high to a chicken
When that love bug bit me,
I had the fever with each passing year.

Oh, even if the mountain tumbles,
If this whole world crumbles,
By her side I'll still be standing there.

'Cause I was made to love her,
I was made to live for her, yeah!

Ah, I was made to love her,
Built my world all around her,
Hey, hey, hey.

Oo baby, I was made to please her,
You know Stevie ain't gonna leave her, no,
Hey, hey, hey.

Oo wee baby, my baby loves me,
My baby needs me,
Hey, hey, hey.

OO my baby loves me....

Just know, the debates that go on in here are scarcely personal. I mean, look at NetRunner and me. Never have you seen a more polarized viewpoint, but we're still cool and certainly there's respect there. Now stop being a big nerd and give papa blankfist a hug.


Aww, I love you too, pigfucker.

*hugs*

burd, don't be too hard on yourself. blankfist is right, it's best to try not to take this stuff personally. I also find it helps to start from the assumption that those who bother to open their mouths here have done some thinking about their positions, and if you take the time to give them a reasoned challenge to their assumptions, you can have a meaningful conversation. If that turns out to not be the case, it's usually best to just move on.

I don't always live by that advice, but I try to.

I also have a rule. Never leave your penis near rottenseed's mouth lest you want empty testicles. Oh and you certainly do not suck, burdy. I enjoy our spirited debates. I enjoy all debates on this site, even the ones where people downvote my comments for using the word "koolaid".

Papa oooh mow mow!

Actually, I disagree with Budzos... I enjoyed the movie a lot more than the comic. I found the comics very hokey and disjointed in comparison, whereas the movie really encapsulated what I would LOVE religion to be. To me Catholicism is empty just because it has claims to relics, spells, and traditions which are ineffective in our world but pretend to be powerful in the way they are presented in this movie.

Religion would kick ass if it was based on a reality like this... I'm not sure how else to say it, but religion (and Catholicism specifically) is like people playing a childish game in which they are trying to imagine a world like this movie portrays.

To get more specific, I liked the explanations and backgrounds of the characters much better in the movie than in the comics. The comic has John Constantine being an ex glam-rocker who is slightly psychic/mystic and who's "damnation" doesn't come from an attempted suicide as in the movie, but rather a botched exorcism which is just kinda stupid. The whole suicide thing is really well done in the reimagining in the movie and makes a lot more sense.

Papa midnight is another character which is vastly improved in the movie. In the book, he seems more like a reject from Live and Let Die, a blaxploitation stereotype, whereas in the movie they really brought home the idea of someone that lives between two allegiances.

As for the use of "guns" and other 007ny stuff, I really thought it worked a lot better than the way they present him in the books. Frankly I'd rather have Constantine wielding a holy shotgun with blessed bullets than looking for a tape of his music video in his trashy apartment.

I'll admit that I only got through three of the graphic novels before I stopped, but I just feel that the changes made to Constantine's development improve vastly over what I saw in the books. As for making him American, I hate Keanu in most of his performances and I thought he really brought it for this one. I was pleasantly surprised and this movie remains one of my all-time favs.
