Thinking about Gabbard in general, my animal instinct is to flatten my ears against my head, roll my eyes up till the whites show, bare my teeth, and trill like a cicada stuck in a Commodore 64.

This thread is now about attacking the other annoying apple talk thread.
So we are to storm the Nigels stupid lovelife thread.
Any suggestions and plans of attack.

I think every response in that thread should cite Joyce and feature lengthy discussion, quotes and tenuous links to his works in response to every HE HAS TO GO/OH GOD DONT LET HIM GO post made within that thread.
Bonus Points if you have read Joyce when making those posts, I know I haven't.

Do you really want to draw additional attention to the one thread where I am trying to keep my horrible obsession ghettoized and out of everyone's way? Just a thought

Oh, but if you decide yes, pls to make it funny.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure I've been missing the point.
So, I'm not going back to that thread.
You're more than welcome to counterattack with intellectual douchebaggery, if you are so inclined, it would probably be pretty funny.
I'm going to hit the bar, let my batteries recharge, and find a better venue for my interest in topical film discussion.

The Joyce thing sounds pretty entertaining, actually.

Its a good venue when people aren't telling other people what to post, humerously or not its distracting.

It would either improve that thread or suffocate it. It cant do anything negative to it.

I was kind of hoping the conversation would move back to the other movie thread.

Robocop was Mel Brooks finest work. Discuss.

Mel Brooks did Robocop?

Geez.  Tells you how much I know about the movies I grew up with!

I hear Daron Aronofsky is doing the new Robo-Cop.

I enjoyed the film maker's use of negative space and post-reductionist feminist symbolism in relation to the narrator's internal dialogue. Also, robots.

Knowing his track record, I'd have to agree.
