|
|
Well I decided to write this today on the way home. I'm not sure what come over me this morning but during the moment of media silence at 8:46 and 9:03 I d3cided that today is somethign more meaningful than bunnyhopping. Today is something more meaningful than scripts. Today is a day that Americans can join together as bothers and sisters and say that we stand united against an unjust cause.
Bada I'm saying this directly to you. You obviously have animosity towards me for whatever reason. But whatever the case may be today I embrace you as a brother, as a citizen of the United States of America. A pround citizen of the greatest nation on earth. I don't care how harsh you may be toward me or what you might say to me. Know this. If it ever came right down to it you are my brother under a united cause far more important than anythign that is usually discussed here. Whether it only lasts for today or for the rest of the duration of this community, I stand beside you proud to know you and would honestly say that I would have your back anyday against an enemy that would seek to destroy this community and our way of life.
To everyone else. Whether you live in our country or not. If you share my views about our nation fighting against an evil empire with an unjust cause then you too are my brother or sister and I want you to know that I love you.
Americans stand proud, you live in the greatest nation on earth. You are the finest of the finest and the proudest of the proudest and know when it's time to stand together.
GG America.
Francis Scott Key wrote: | Oh, say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, now conceals, now discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines on the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! O long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion
A home and a country should leave us no more?
Their blood has wiped out their foul footstep's pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved homes and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heaven-rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, for our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner forever shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

That's some deep sheeeet there Computer!! After reading that post I just want to tell you, "I love you man". And let that thought go out to every other villun that I might get the chance to frag with. You people are like family to me. I feel so lucky to have found a community that has taken me in the way that you have. As of today, let any bye gones be bye gones. Let's start a clean slate and frag like a family again. Rock on Villuns, Rock on The Ville!! _________________

Er...did you forget about Australia when you wrote this?
Well, hope you Americans had a...this is kinda hard to talk about to you guys..."great day".
BTW, did anyone see 9-11 on TV? It was put on TV last night, but the TV guide said that it was on TV in America in March. It was pretty interesting, but pretty horrible
Well, it applies more to The Americans than me, so I probably shouldn't say anything else. Nice, Computer. |

I hold no animosity but it is very old that almost anytime someone posts an opinion you flame them.Plain and simple end of story we don't flame you for your opinions and it would be nice if you could do the same. _________________

Even when I go out of my way to say something nice you can't budge a little bit. Forget what I said. Hate me if you want, whatever. I've yet to see anyone other than you say comment on me "flaming", and as far as I know I've got a very good relationship with everyone here. Oh well I guess I shouldn't have expected any better from you.
I don't flame people for their opinions but I'm not going to with hold mine either. You got a problem with what I say? Tell someone who cares.
From this point forward I have no postive feeling towards you. I have tried on three occasions now to attempt to resolve this and you childishly rebuke my attempts. Hope you have fun dwelling in your position perpindicular to mine.
To everyone else I hope you can see that I have done all that I can to not only resolve my problems here with everyone, but to squelch my animosity with any that has ever had any with me. And if you have a problem with me and never told me then that is why I have never tried to rectify it, and if you fall into that category then I'm sincerely sorry for whatever it is that I may have done to offend you.
I'm very opinionated and I stand strong by my opinions and I will be damned if you are going to muffle that. Your rude, and act in ways that are very unbecoming of what this place represents. You in my opinion are a scourge here. Your bad attitude is infectious and I hope people are open minded enough to see that. _________________ "Don't be so humble - you are not that great."

BB SR here
Has someone forgotten to take thier Medication. WTF
I have never had aproblem with Comp. In fact I rarely take things placed on the message board to heart unless it is a call for help with a problem.
All I care about is what happens in Game.
There will always be personality conflicts here and every where else in life. Let's just chalk this one up to that and let it go. _________________

Too bad Sr. can't make all the posts. He actually seems to have some sense.
Too bad you have the same account. It'd be nice to know who i'm talking to. _________________ "The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it."
