Random 1 (A&E Original TV Series)

[firestar]

Has anyone seen this show yet? I caught about 15 mins of it at work yesterday and I really want to see a whole episode! It's looks very interesting and also looks like it was put together really well..

Here's some info..

I watched one. they ended up hookin this homeless guy up with a prosthetic leg so he could get back into construction.. seemed like it would be an impossible task, but they found a place that donates prosthetics, 22 grand!! the dude was so emotional. cool shit.

I just watched an episode where they put a guy into detox and helped him get in contact with his family and kids. He was living in a tent.

This show has to be one of the most inspirational things I've ever seen. It really gave me the feeling that there's some hope left for us as a society. There are good people out there who are willing to help others less fortunate and do whatever it takes to see it through.

Really truly inspirational, its like a real life pay-it-forward. :)

[fable]

cynisism aside, it seemed pretty heart warming, i watched the one with the homeless ex construction worker.

cynisism back in front, its a bullshit, reactionary program that deflects people from coming face to face, live and direct with their own part to play in the suffering of others, as well as the governments role, through sporadic, msrepresentational displays of shear unadulterated tokenism.

[Cdn_Brdr]

For once fable, honestly, shut up OK

I understand your 'anything for the cause' type attitude but this show is nothing more than helping people. Don't twist it.

[fable]

I presented an opinion, that was temprered by both ends of my emoional reactions. Im tired of shit heads like YOU, that seem to belive that because you prescribe to a said charitable action, there shouldnt be a need to a political discourse around said subject. Dont pigeonhole me either, if we are going to be under the belief that what you get on this board isnt all that is to people, then check your own assumptions. Everything should be available to scrutiny.

-whats the budget of the film?
-whos the executive body?

[baby-phat]

I've only seen the commercials and maybe 5-10 mins of one. It seems like an awesome heart-warming show. I'd love to actually watch it sometime. :)

[mugwump]

it beats those reality shows that humiliate people i guess

I second the cdn-brdr. Take your political discource elsewhere guy. Man lighten up a bit, this is a good show, and like wum said, at least it's not like the other 100 shows that humiliate people. You and that 'boycot walmart' guy need to get together in mom's basment and plot world domination.

HEY FUCKWAD... NOT EVERYTHING IN THIS WORLD NEEDS TO BE SCRUTINIZED FOR SOME HIGHER CALLING AND POLITICAL ACTION.

Some things are just what they seem to be... they are what they are. It's a reality based tv show funded by A&E. I'm SURE those execs are all gov't based political spinsters placed there to take the public eye off of what it should be doing and make us complacent enough to not ask questions and go about our daily business with a false sense of 'everything is ok'

hahaha... gimme a break Shakalaka! No one is denying the other shit that goes on but it doesn't mean that there can't be something devoted to doing a bit of good. You know what I'm tired of? I'm tired of 'heads' like you trying to turn even the simplest of things into some fucking moral conquest. Seriously.... fuck right off. You and number guy esoteric need to head off somewhere and suck dick for the greater good of society.

Your hilarious man, and although your own apathetic attitudes, and naivety might serve a peaceful and normal existance for yourself, what makes you think that others feel that way, or what give YOU the right to let your own opinions quash the ideas or quest for truths of others? Did i shit on your right to post your opinions on the show? Did i come after you on a personal level? No, i illustrated some points, and threw them out there. You have all the right to shit on them, on their own merits, but as par for the course in your limited grasp of anything ouside of the realm of nonsense, you come after me.

Nonetheless i have taken some things you have to said in the past to heart, and im not going to launch into the righteous stratosphere, mainly because you were right, its stupid, and i debase myself. None of which is necessary when the naivety and inherant ignorance of your beliefs in respect to supporting back alley oppression, which rises all the way to the highest echalons of government, shines brighter than your brilliantly luminescent idiocy sometimes known as your understanding of the world around you.

might i also add that just because your the resident professional on understanding white suburban elitist liberal progressive culture doenst give you the PHD on having even a shred of a clue.

aka why be an asshole? You were doing so well at being an idiot?

Mods, can we delete these rants please? Either that or can you guys just STOP this. oi vey and thanks. :)
I'd like to be able to read a thread mostly about what it's supposed to be and not a bunch of political or whatever kinda rants.

whats a fucking rant in my prose? Peope go off about getting free newspapers, mean people, hangovers, bla bla and you shit on a few random political posts? People throw around fag and homo at will, and your aright wit it, and now you speak up? You have a seriously fucked sence of priority in your life. Im being sensitive to the fact that this is rave board, and i chat beats as much as the next person (and when i mean beats i mean beats, not questions like: are you an "antiraver" or "raver")

You seriously confound me girl. Im trying to be civil and understanding to any and alls concerns, but if these posts get erased, this board officially becomes the largest hypocritical display of "building community" known to humankind.

[fable]

Oh My GoD, tHiS ShOw Is SoOo SwEeT!

ThAt HoMeLeSs gUy Is So NiCe

ArE yOu A cAnDy RaVeR i LoVe eXctaCy, anD i HaTe FaGs!

is this to your liking? because perhaps there are 12 or so heads on this board that believe that this is the way things should be, but i fucking promise you theres hundreds more who understand that music boards are an examlification of our lives inside and outside said raves, and its a lot more than random shit slingings that alienate heads and just waste bandwith. Have fun, be stupid, but why hate on things that dont fit on under those categories?

[baby-phat]

^^ *rolls eyes* Now yer just being childish.
This is a thread about a TV show, not politics or anything else. Just a damn TV show. yeesh

[Cdn_Brdr]

Wow.... seriously fable, your weak modus operandi of trying to turn any and every discussion into some sort of twisted debate about opression and the powers that be is getting really tired. You seem to think that I want to shit on your beliefs? HARDLY. You have every right to believe them but the incessant trampling of them on this board is becoming too much.

Want to start threads about how the 'heads' need to organize... go right ahead. Personally, I won't read the drivel but the three or four people who might care about your opinions will most likely post back with something to your liking. Actually, that's not even fair... I'm not saying that your beliefs are shit. As a matter of fact I may even agree with you on a few of them but the way you try to manouver even the simplest of topics into these mass debates seems like stretching for one and not really the right place to start it. When you bust in on threads that are about one thing and twist it to another you get backlash... mostly because we don't see the point of it.

Your woe is me attitude and your playing of the race card is even weaker. I'm an, as you put it 'white suburbanite'? What does my ethicity have to do with anything? Is it because I don't have to go through life getting barraged with ethnic slurs? Or is it because I can get jobs easier because I'm a caucasian and that automatically makes me priviledged? Are these things that you think? I don't get your basis for playing that angle at all. Despite what you may think not all white folk want to opress you poor blacks, chinese, latinos, muslims... whatever you are. I think no differently of you that I do anyone else, that's not my style. I'm sorry for the fact that some people DO but don't blame their short comings on me and every other white guy you come across in life.

Get off your high horse man. That's a joke. Ugh, for the most part talking to you is about as effective as beating your head against a brick wall. You come back with the same bullshit rhetoric every time. I'm not gonna waste any more time with you here... I'll wait until you bust into the next thread and attempt to direct it into something it has no relation to.

i think its cute when people go yeesh.

your missing the point girl, perhaps the show, isnt as innocent and family time friendly tv as much as we are led to belive (cue in dramatic music)

anyways ill take a hint hon, but seriouslly the hypocricy behind this show is too serious and real not to atleast ponder over a bowl of count chocula!

no matter, me done

peace+respect
shak

[firestar]

yeah fable my man your replies have a very 'holier than thou' attitude. You're really on the wrong board man, seriously. Please come down a notch bud, you're no better than anyone else here. And pushing this political garbage on a thread about a tv show of all things is seriously is lame. There tons of political message boards, where people love to debate over that kind of stuff, fnk is def not one of those those places.

thats what i was disputing! So instead of countering, you go for the bullshit. The only rhetoric im getting is yours, i aint pulling no woe is me- personally i go for useless revenge not cries of victimization. But i wasnt infering anything by my last statement about "white suburbia" except as far as your prose on this board in relation to my comes from that angle- the angle of question nothing, what you see is, is what you get, no ones after me, or against me, our government is just and good bla bla. You speak on what YOU believe, or dont, i aint speaking on just my opinions, but the entirity of many unpopular opinions about oppression and lies in general. My initial post was no longer than a paragraph and a bit, and that was that. You came back with the lameness. DONT YOU know by now that if you tell someone to shut it, when theyre affording themselves the same right as you have, theyre not going to listen, and in life if you do it long enough theyre going light you on fire while you sleep. Like it or not, you and i are connected,as human beings on the same planet and for every piece of miseducation that you type that takes no consideration of historical precedent, i will respond. So take the lead if youd like, i gotta pay attention to class for awhile

i beg to differ. You forget that i was once a "raver" That i listen to many genres of music affiliated with said culture, that im everywhere and anywhere you have been, and there are others just like me and with saying that, theres others that draw connectons between music, art, style, social and political activism.

Why holier than though? Your not taking you own internal biases into consideration. Im not preaching, im sharing my opinion, and half time i get a reply that has nothing to do with the topic, thats naked name calling illustrating that IM TAKING THE THREAD INTO THE WRONG DIRECTION?

I could care less, but since im clarifying things, i aint going to shit on anyones opinins of beleifs up to a point, That point being racism/prejudism/ etc etc, as long as if we are talking about a serious thing, then have a serious debate. Im no angel, but usaully i resort to obtuse righteousness only after the like of hypnotic, or bongman or paininyeranus, or a few others come on, clearly point out that they have no idea about the current discussion, but dislike me, so they go for the "i hate you" bullshit. And most of the time they are hyped up by others reactions as well. Whats this mean? Nothing really in real life, but in the context of questioning my legitemacy or my perceived goals of writing, it should be considered.

I dont want to fight bro, seriously, think what you will, i resepct your right to that as a fellow human, but if you write on a public forum, i might reply.

im serious mang, no more value judgements. I just wanna share my thoughts like anyone else, and not at the sake of others, but if people start...its a given aint it?

am i so wrong?

peace+respect
