We are growing too serious, and let me tell you, that's the very next step to being dull.

I demand that this thread be LOCKED. I furthermore demand that the culprits of all future suspicious pineapple-related comments be dealt with by catapult... lolz too funny. rypper11 08-01-2009, 05:26 PM If you try hard enough you can find offense in anything. I would never buy a Pineapple Jesus t-shirt (or an F*&^ Dallas shirt for that matter) but to censor someones right to express it is the offensive part. In today's world people want the freedom to say what they want and never hear any other views. The only difference between Rush Limbaugh and Howard Stern is which side of the extreme you favor. However, one thing I've always liked about this site is the disagreements without namecalling and personal attacks. IMHO, this was the only line that was crossed. wilsowilso 08-01-2009, 05:51 PM I'm discouraged everyone just make fun of skinsnut, and I'm disappointed that the moderators are so underwhelmingly apathetic. . Why even bother to post if you are going to say some garbage like "everyone just make fun of skinsnut" because that's not at all what happened. Read the thread again. Or look up the word "everyone" in the dictionary. Lotus 08-01-2009, 06:04 PM To the folks who find the Colt imagery to be offensive, I apologize for myself and others. It is not good to feel like what is sacred to you is being dragged through the mud. People should be sensitive about this. However, the intent was never to denigrate Jesus. Symbols related to Jesus were borrowed but Jesus was never depicted in a bad light. Jesus was not personally attacked. People did not intend to mock Jesus at all but rather to mock other people. People were trying to have fun and were not seeking to cause offense. I self-identify as a Buddhist. I would not mind if the imagery were "Pineapple Buddha," including an image of Colt sitting under the tree of enlightenment. I would know that it all was in fun. However, something would be lost, because part of the mockery of people who lionize Colt concerns the idea that he is our football savior, and the Buddha clearly stated that he was not a savior. I encourage everyone to be respectful of religious sensibilities of others. And I encourage those who were offended by the Colt imagery to change their attitude from outrage to disapproving. JGisLordOfTheRings 08-01-2009, 06:06 PM This thread is now officially gay. Ultimate hypocrisy, coming from the king of useless things, but i'm with you. Gay AND now defunct thread. Rajmahal's post wins for massive pineapple references. Ruhskins 08-01-2009, 06:11 PM As a person who loves pineapples, i am terribly offended. I demand that this thread be LOCKED. I furthermore demand that the culprits of all future suspicious pineapple-related comments be dealt with by catapult... Seriously can't we all just get along. Theoretically by this thread closing logic, couldn't someone who is native american come on this site and insist that every thread/sig/whatever containing the moniker "redskins" be offensive to them and demand the thread be closed? RIDICULOUS This message has been brought to you by PETOP (People for the Ethical Treatment of Pinneapples). :laughing2 SmootSmack 08-01-2009, 06:38 PM Well this thread has run it course...and then some. As the originator of Pineapple Je5us and a ****ing mod who can do whatever the **** I ****ing want so don't ****ing piss me off :)...I'm locking this thread Because I think we can all think of better things to do than have to come to this board and catch up by having to read 100 posts about what is and isn't offensive. And maybe, just maybe, I'll send it to Thread Hell. Yeah, that's right I'll send a Pineapple Je5us thread to Thread Hell...put that in your irony pipe and smoke it and don't forget to buy your T-shirts and maybe donate a little to this site that Matty puts so much time and resources into so we all have to place to chat MTK 08-02-2009, 12:11 PM Well well, a few bad (pine)apples managed to ruin the bunch. Note to self to avoid mixing fruit with god in the future. 2 or 3 people might have a problem with it and will stomp their feet until they get their way. Congrats pineapple haters. |
