I was really hoping for them to actually do the bits that they did in the movie there... the rumbling along the table and BANG of the book etc.

Oh well, still amusing

The relevance is that fundamental islamic followers are moving to great britain and setting up here. I've heard a few rumblings in the past about certain areas in certain cities where nutjob muslims (yes, like there are nutjob christians too) refuse to speak any language other than their own, virtually ostracise themself from great britain from anything other than selecting which benefits of our country they want to live with. Such as jobseeker's allowance, child maintenance, free health care, housing payments, free schooling, free speech (especially this one), etc. etc.

There are many english speaking fuckbags who do it too. There are many people whose family history you could trace back hundreds of years to these islands, they're doing it as well.

I've also heard rumblings that some of these people want to bring elements of sharia (spell check) law into british law, allowing them to deal with 'their own' people in 'their own' way (not my words). I won't pretend that this is some major agenda being pushed by credible muslim groups in this country, it could easily be a bunch of isolated nutcases like the christian families in america protesting army funerals.

What i can say for certain is that in these certain areas of certain cities sharia law IS being practised. These little communities within a community set themselves up as being apart from everyone else and the people in there live how they like. I wish i could cite the documentary i watched on this subject but i can't, so i'm reduced to looking like an idle speculator.

Segregation of communities is CLEARLY a problem. I think it's been a problem for a while here in britain, we haven't worked hard enough to make sure immigrants grow to become part of britain. As a result, we are left with places like that in this country, and left with people voting for the BNP/UKIP because they feel like that's their only option left to resolve tensions in certain areas. It's why we're left with people arguing over schools, what's taught there and what isn't, whether it's fair for things to be included or excluded from schools, what you can wear to work, and so on.

The relevance of this question to me is establishing that there are elements of muslim life and religion from muslim countries that simply cannot be taken to other countries, and not just the death penalty for leaving the faith. That's what it meant to me.

The relevance could also very easily be showing that certain aspects of the muslim faith can't be visited upon other countries because it would be tantamount to a war crime. Replicating images of their god, leaving their faith. These things should only apply to their country, not internationally. Yet we've seen events where they ARE applied internationally by lunatics.

Jackie Chan didn't make this list at all?!?!?!!?

Clock Tower Tumble, 3:08. Yes, no net, no parachute, not even bags. Just hard, solid ground. And he didn't do it just once, but four times! You have to be pretty baddassed, to do that stunt, more then once. On the last drop, he broke five ribs and an injury to his head.

Same video, 4:12. He jumps and slides down a building.

Or even, Rumble in the Bronx...

This list isnt complete, without Jackie Chan.

Wrong. From what I understand, the black guy said "Why should a black man spit shine your shoes?" as the white guy was passing. The white man simply engaged... to a certain extent. You can see that he knows himself well enough to move to the front of the bus just before the shit is about to hit the fan. He knows he will do some damage if he stays. And that's why he looks violated after the rumble. There's an expression on his face that says: "Why did you make me do that to you? Why? I tried to be good."

You might wonder why someone would simply blurt out "why does a black man have to shine your shoes?" for no reason to a big white dude. Consider this, it's the middle of the day and the perp is drunk, on a bus, acting tough for cackling hens. Enough said. >> ^peggedbea:
that roided up old jackass totally escalated this beyond the point of return and probably instigated it too, and the first thing i heard out his mouth was him asking the black guy how much he'd charge to shine his shoes.
fuck that cocked up old jackass.
he is a motherfucker.

I just don't "get" Letterman, I guess.
I'm going to use a "pot of funny" analogy here and see how far it works.
So, you've got these laugh-a-minute guys that are constantly over the top - they're chucking rocks into the pot of funny. Eventually, all the funny's splashed out and the noise is getting annoying.
Then you've got these simmer-splash guys that take a while to set up a joke and knock it down. That's usually alright because there tends to be some informative bits as they're building the tension.
Then you've got the "low boil" folks that just rumble along with a subtle delivery, rarely going for the big laugh, but keeping those smaller jibes and ironic statements flowing. Maybe you have to lean in a little closer and pay attention to catch it. I dig low-boil humor.
To me, Letterman is just...sitting there. Like - where's the entertainment? Where's the funny? I hear the audience laughing - I know it's supposed to be funny. People laugh, and I look at the motionless pot of funny going, "did I miss something?"

First off, let me say that

I tried to give this a chance, but it continues the standard truther shite:
* People who were there heard and felt various bangs and sounds etc. and so therefore it must be bombs. Or... you know, perhaps just complete misquoting, or lying, or misremembering from the person that says it?. Here is his quote to a CNN correspondant:

"I was in the basement, which is the support floor for the maintenance company, and we hear like a big rumble. Not like an impact, like a rumble, like moving furniture in a massive way. And all of sudden we hear another rumble, and a guy comes running, running into our office, and all of skin was off his body. All of the skin."

Here he says that the man was coming from the basement, and yet if you read the transcript of his interview with the CNN person it's clear that the person came from AN ELEVATOR that had COME DOWN... not someone coming from the basement as he says here.

Sorry, but this is the sort of shit that the 'truther' movement hangs off, completely fallible individual statements, that no matter how often they are shown to be false or incorrect, or mis-quoted, they use them as FACT and the TRUTH...

Utterly infuriating bullshit.

I'm not going to downvote, and I think people should see that this is the best that the 'truther' movement can come up with.



Look, I have NO ISSUE with people wanting to get clear information of who was actually responsible for 9/11, as it does indeed seem as it wasn't Osama, and had nothing at all to do with Iraq/Sadam. BUT... to then start wanking on about controlled demolitions, about it being a job done by the US government is UTTERLY insane. Sorry, but just stopping and thinking about the insanity of organising the planes to hit the buildings AND somehow rig them to explode and control their demolition later (in such a way that there are NO explosion sounds) AND somehow make that all secret... it makes no sense.

It makes FAR more sense that it actually WAS a terrorist attack that the US government seized on as a great opportunity to enforce horrendous laws and treat their citizens like criminals and invade a country they wanted to under bogus pretenses... THAT is believable, THAT you can back up with hard facts.

The 'truther' bullshit of it being a US planned attack? Give me a f*cking break.

^Indeed it was, but it was very mild. And in the context, there were extenuating circumstances: One thing in particular that I stumbled on when looking over the pictures yesterday, was that bea did the very same thing to ivy only minutes before I did. This is not in any dispute, I have the picture taken by rick. Facebook friends can see this plain as day. Of course they were much better friends than she and I, and had a level of trust that we didn't, but there it is. I encourage any of my friends on facebook to look at those pictures and tell me if it looked like they were scared and note their attitudes as well.

I did mine a few minutes after it, and while it was obviously out of line, I think those circumstances does at least give me the benefit of the doubt in that.

Krupo, I hadn't a clue the gravity of the situation and they never let on. And I am deeply annoyed that people would see me as a "sexual assaulter" or anything like that; it was a poor judgment call to get some shock laughs in the context I was in. Look at the picture (or at least friends on facebook can), I did what the two of them had done right before, it was a very quick touch, and it was wrong of me. Ivy has accepted my apology on this in a PM, so I would rather just move away from it now.

All in all, I'm eager to get away from this situation - I think it has been a storm in a teacup, that grew out of all the different things coming together which has had a synergistic effect that has made it seem much worse than its individual parts were. And the way the rumors have rumbled under the surface this place has not helped either.

There I'm done, ivy's already discarded this mess, and I'm pleased.

I think this has been a fully fledged character assassination attempt and I am disgusted by it. I am not afraid of what you'll think of me, because the truth is on my side.

This thread, or rather all the rumblings behind this thread, is filled with vicious lies which I can only assume stems from peggedbea. I am deeply troubled by this.

Rasch, this will be my last message directed to you, because I really don't like you and I haven't for a long time. I will make this as delicate and level-headed as I can. You have been misinformed. My messages to both AC and bea after my texas trip have been different ways of asking "What happened?" because none of them would tell me what they were upset about.

I don't know what you and the rest have been told about the trip to Texas, but I am very much not in denial. I do know what happened when I was there, and it was what I wrote in my message above.

Furthermore, where else have you read about my trip to Texas? If it's anything I've written then please present it. I know I talked to AC about it before I went over there, but I've never talked to you about anything? How can you know anything that doesn't stem from peggedbea? Is it not possible that she's the one that's either in denial or just lying for the hell of it.

I have heard a few rumors about what I allegedly did over there and elsewhere. Here's what has been relayed to me

1. You flew to Texas to visit Bea, out of the blue and without an invite.
This is false. We discussed it in the lounge and later on messenger and she invited me. I don't know anyone that currently live in Texas, why in the hell would I book a (very expensive, I might add) trip to texas out of the blue? How could I ever even expect to be allowed to stay with her then? It just doesn't make sense.

2. From the beginning you engaged in a lot of sexual talk with her, some of it around her kids- to the point of telling her 5 year old that she could legally have sex when she's 15.
The latter part is a bold-faced lie. I never, ever talked to her kids about ANYTHING sexual. I talked to bea about it, but that was certainly as much her as it was me. We talked a bit more subdued, but like we've talked in the lounge. Anyone who has ever been in the lounge knows that she talks way more shit than I do, and people who know me in real life know I'm not nearly as sordid when I'm talking face-to-face. And I would fucking never talk about sex to a child. Fucking hell, that's pure evil spreading a lie like that.

3. You grabbed InflateableVagina's ass and boobs while staying with Bea, and generally freaked everyone out.
No and yes. I didn't grab her ass, I think I smacked it. The boob thing was just an immature prank that turned out to be way out of line. I acknowledged that above, and I have apologized to ivy about that. I can't say that I generally freaked everyone out, but I suppose I could have freaked the three out that were there, bea, ivy and their friend rick. The kids were long gone to be by that time, and they certainly liked me both.

A little context as well, this was the second day I was there (tuesday). I was there from monday till thursday morning. I do remember that after it happened ivy or bea said that it was inappropriate, but ivy seemed to laugh it off and I did the same. I shrugged it off as an immature prank gone a little overboard. We were all a bit drunk and I acted like a high-schooler, that was it. I've apologized for this on many occasions now to ivy.

The next whole day, we went to Six Flags and not a word was mentioned about it, so I thought, that I stepped over the line, but it looked like they forgave me, so let's just move on. We were still having fun and bea and I were still talking fine together, so I assumed everything was alright.

The next morning at 4 or 5 in the morning, she knocked on my door and woke me up and explained that someone in her family had died and she had to go away to another part of the state to deal with it. She was very distraught and I've not brought it up before because I don't think it's nice to share such things here, but that's what it's come to. I'm sorry in advance to bea for this, but she's made it abundantly clear that she has no trouble lying to people about what happened, so I have lost all esteem for her and can't be concerned with it anymore.

We drove to the airport in the morning with the kids half-awake on the backseat, she dropped me off and drove on to what she had to deal with.

I wrote Ivy a text message later in the morning asking if she had heard anything from bea and if she was alright, so she can attest to that as well. After that bea blocked me on facebook and ignored all PMs on videosift (and promptly deleted them) and AC wrote me that she didn't want to speak anymore out of the blue. What am I to believe here? I mean, can't you see a possible connection? If bea spread a lie to AC about me that was a terrible as the one above, I could understand that AC reacted the way she did. If only she had told me that, if that's the case.

4. You have been communicating with Alien Concept - planning a visit, and claim to have pictures of her that you found somewhere.

I have indeed been communicating with alien_concept. We've been communicating a great deal since the lounge started, I think. We had a good talk in the lounge, and I'm pretty sure there were other people in there as well. I can't remember which of us asked for a messenger address, but in any case we started talking on messenger as well, because I thought she was fun and I can only assume she did the same to me (well, she said as much at least). I've never been planning any visit to her. I've talked to her about it; that it could be cool to meet up at some point; but she's always wanted her boyfriend to come over before any other sifters. And I can respect that. I did some friendly jabs at her about how cheap it was to go to London, but there were never any plans to go anywhere. We had talked about me coming by after new years, or maybe make the siftup then, when her boyfriend was there as well, but it never panned out to anything concrete. I certainly don't have any pictures of her that I've "found somewhere". She has sent me exactly 5 pictures over messenger herself, nothing sordid or anything. At some point, I think during this winter, I sent her some videos of myself playing guitar like the blog posts, which she at the time thought was fun.

When she all of a sudden wrote her "I don't want to talk anymore" I was completely baffled and saddened. Mostly because I didn't understand why she did it. She said that I "didn't respect her and her boyfriend's relationship", but I never saw it as me trying to horn in on her, we were just talking and having fun. We were both in our talks, I didn't just yap at her leg all the time at all. So I pestered her a bit after she wrote it, because I wanted her to reconsider and at least explain to me why the sudden change of heart and because I considered us friends, and friends do have at least a little lee-way to deserve an answer.

I still very much like the rae that I've talked to and I like ivy still too. I'm completely disillusioned about peggedbea. I liked her, but I don't anymore - this is just vicious and she should be stopped. Rasch, you and some others in here are so quick to judge me and deem me guilty, when it's just not true. This is not denial talking, this is reason talking. If you have heard any other rumors about me, bring them out! We're already doing the laundry in public, we might as well do it proper.

I'm am still not the crook in this and by now I've laid myself bare and exposed more about people I liked that I would have wanted to. This disturbs me, it really does.

I am glad that there are some sifters who still have my back and support me, because the truth is still on my side.

1. Journey - Good Morning Girl

2. The Cure - Disintegration
Stopped to listen to this one all the way through, even though I usually just write down the track name and skip on with these things.

3. Talking Heads - Girls Want to Be with the Girls
Haha, had to listen to this one too.

4. the pillows - Beehive
Live version ripped from the bonus DVD of their latest live concert release, Blue Song With Blue Poppies. They actually stopped in the middle of the song because Sawao forgot the lyrics, then started fresh and rocked it really hard. Wish I could have seen this show.

5. ELLEGARDEN - Surfrider Association
Opening track from BRING YOUR OWN BOARD!! Love these guys. They sound like typical pop punk at a quick listen sometimes, but if you actually give a whole album a chance, you realize that they're fantastic musicians and a huge cut above the drudge that fills up their genre.

6. Pavement - Elevate Me Later
I actually haven't ever paid attention to this track before, but I really love the intro.

7. Ling Tosite Sigure - 鮮やかな殺人 (The Vivid Murderer)
Self-produced demo take, hell fucking yes. Raging, screeching Telecaster guitar solo, rumbling bass lines, and a huge range of dynamics.

8. ART-SCHOOL - LOST IN THE AIR (Tony Doogan mix)
Fan-fucking-tastic song. This mix has more presence to the bass guitar than the original, which creates for a much more atmospheric song. I like very much.

9. GING NANG BOYZ - 駆け抜けて性春 (The Youth Running Past)
God I love this song. Crazy but catchy Japanese punk rock. They record all of their instruments at one go in the studio rather than layering it instrument by instrument, giving a raw, live sound to all their recordings. I wish all rock musicians did this.

10. People in the Box - Paper Trip
Great song, off my favorite album by them.

RRRRRRRRRRRUMBLE RUMBLE RUMBLLLLLLLLLLLE

It's like a royal rumble with all the grapplers dressed as referees.

Hey, you ain't really you and you ain't really down
Plus I'm tired of seeing you fucking for they face of ground
'Cause when I sit back and think back of how you found me
It make me react react my fucking yammy
Now I don't cock, though my mnd is in the sewer
I just kick back six pack and then I do 'er
But she gets stuck on crowing like a cat
'Cause the toes got sucked on she don't know how to act
Back in the days I am 237, used to rumble Kevin
Backing hoes was like heaven
Eleven, years later I tried to hide
And hoped they pass me by like I'm the pharycyde
Just let me puff and lounge with my niggas
Don't have no time to fake funk with triggers
Don't believe in kids with that puts cat say
Fuck around with Fasion get your whole shit bit
Spend crazy years with the blues pay dues
Before I met the Psycho is in the junk yard juice
But now the crew combined and we can't be stopped
Going around the globe to collect the props

I get stoned everyday I gots nothing else to do
I'm getting drunk with my niggas `til the night is thru
And when the night is thru, I won't have a fucking clue
Of what tomorrow will bring so I pay ten [true]
Yo life's kind of funny if you don't make money
Then your days ain't fuckin sunny
Excuse me for my language
But I'm trying to get my last thing together
And bought the crib to be in my damn bids so neve

Acted like I deserve to have it
I whipped I stabbed it I whipped I grabbed it you silly
Rabbit, I'm coming at your door
Tracks behind the stacks better yo I'm brought showa
I'm showa, unlike others wanna pop u
Use a pistol drop dogging that shit you need to stop
'Cause when I approach and you can't back up
What you said [Toma]
Fly you fucking head like that

Real niggas do real things and that's a fact
And real niggas could lick their hoes in niggas backs
And your life's down like a heavy price to pay
For some bullshit that you ain't even had to say
But don't sweat that, 'cause I'm 'ma let you keep your head
If I wanted to kill, you're already be dead
I gotta a lot of things to do, a lot of money to make
I got no time for you and all the moves you fake
Taking care of business yeah without a doubt
And I'm 'ma make a million dollars kid before I'm out
Yeah I gotta give a shout to my peeps in Corona
Going hand to hand gettin' loot on the corner
Life is full of stress and to rest my brain
So I puff the buddha bless and destroy the pain
I gotta a lot of things to do, a lot of money to make
I got no time for you and all the moves you fake
