Believe that the New World Translation HAS to be the most accurate version of the Bible, because that's the one Prince reads.

This list is getting good... we are really getting somewhere!

I am going to have people post this on Princefams.com pretty frequently, as Heather has been doing for me today!

When the "fams" are separated from the humans I will not ask anyone to post anything on that site. :LOL:

I could go there myself and cause REAL problems, but I am not going to do so... I have already proved my point about being able to go back at will, so that is boring to me now. If other people want to post silliness for me... so be it!

biggrin

That one day, the Brooklyn Bridge will be called Graffiti Bridge.
That even though it's a little extreme, they understand why some fams want to have a leg shortening operation.
That Prince could take on Bobby Fisher if he bothered to play chess.
That frankly it's high time Minneapolis be renamed Princeapolis.

I would just think that somebody intelligent like you would have better things to do and talk about. You can't rip everyone apart for liking things that you don't particularly like. And why would you care? It just baffles me.

I for one am just having fun at my own expense. I,m not as critical as a hardcore naysayer, not as fawning as some fams, but I think we're making fun of excessive hero worship here. Prince is supposed to be against cult of personalities, and some fams are not too far from idolatry.

Here is my list of questions:

Why would you care about why I would care?
Why should it baffle you?
Why do "fams" get so pissed off when others are having fun?
Why do "fams" think that they have the right to tell others that they are being "too negative" or "too mean?"
Why shouldn't I talk about whatever I want to talk about?
Why did a bunch of people go to that "fam" site and decide that they were holier-than-thou do-gooders?
Why do these people even read the "fam" threads?

I have a simple solution: If the "fams" don't like these threads, they can stay the fuck off of them.

100% EXACTLY CORRECT, AEROGRAM!!!

That is EXACTLY what we are doing and it really amuses me that other people cannot see that.

No, I am not pissed off at all... I am just me. I do find it amusing that want to complain about threads rather than just ignoring them though.

Here we go...

Here is my list of questions:

Why would you care about why I would care?

I really don't. I was trying to put it nicely because I knew how you would react. It's just getting tiresome now.

Why should it baffle you?

I find it disappointing that an intelligent person is stuck on such a pathetic issue like "fams"

Why do "fams" get so pissed off when others are having fun?

I'm not a fam, but I do like Prince. I would think it has something to do with this being a Prince site and if you hate it so much you would go some place that you find more interesting

Why do "fams" think that they have the right to tell others that they are being "too negative" or "too mean?"

Not a fam...

Why shouldn't I talk about whatever I want to talk about?

You can. But it's just getting old. I enjoy your topics where you aren't poking fun at people

Why did a bunch of people go to that "fam" site and decide that they were holier-than-thou do-gooders?

You were there weren't you? It was a place for us to go and chat to each other. I never claim to be holier-than-thou


Why do these people even read the "fam" threads?

Most probably don't anymore

I have a simple solution: If the "fams" don't like these threads, they can stay the fuck off of them.


Ice I'm not starting an argument with you, I wouldn't want to because you don't stop, and apparently you're never wrong. I just think it's time to move on. Some people are sensitive and you making fun of them are hurting them and all they are doing is posting on a Prince fan site because they like Prince.

Have a good weekend I am going home.

I wish the answer was more like we could all respect each others opinions rather than go on and on and on about Prince fans on a Prince fan site.

It just doesn't make sense to me.

Don't tell me... let me guess... You have a few dozen crates of PURPLE KOOL-AID at home... you better get to it!

:LOL:

I will post whatever I want, whenever I want to... you can take offense to the topics, you can enjoy them, you can ignore them... it is all on YOU, not me.

Do you not have the power to skip over my topics if you don't like them? It is hard to be tired of something that you don't read!

:LOL:

Have a good weekend too!

There you go... the "fams" can post their own topics just as easy as I can... but it is oh, so easy to play the victim and cry like a bunch of babies.

I find it amusing.

NO I don't have purple kool-aid bastard! evil


And my point is that this is a PRINCE SITE. And unfortunately Prince brought the word "fams" into the world and yes, it is queer, and yes it is annoying but it doesn't change the fact that it's a fan site. You should expect and respect that it's going to happen here. That's what the site is for.

I'm not being a baby. I'm just being respectful.

If you want to be respectful, don't call me "bastard" and respect my right to say what the fuck I want to.

:LOL:

EDIT: If you want to talk about respect and how you respect the "fams" right to be "fams," you should respect the anti-"fams" right to be anti-"fams," shouldn't you?

Well, I see both Carrie's point and Ice's. You know I have the utmost respect for both of you, so I'm not flaming at all here. Ice, I think Carrie is making the point that its pointless to post things over on the other site because the point will be lost, and it will just upset people needlessly. She didn't object to your thread on here at all, she is just saying its pointless to go over there and stir them up (and besides, it gives the whinier people a place to go. Leave them over there, and all of us smart-ass folks can have a good time over here).

Carrie, I do think Ice is just trying to get the more serious "Fam" types to chill out and realise that there is a whole world outside of Prince.

Okay, now you guys kiss and make up! I hate it when mom and dad fight! I'm gonna start crying!
