    Yup, that totally contributes to the conversation. Sometimes I wonder if your just trying to inflate your post count.


    Pretty funny but more of commentary on corporations or bosses in general is the way I took it.

    I just do not understand how that was funny at all.

    Also I am sorry if my one post out of 1009 does not adhere to what you believe is a legitimate post on an off topic thread.

    It is a critique of the personalities of the people who run corporations, and their detachment from the rest of humanity, up to and especially including the people that work for their own corporations. The scene where one of the men shoots his clone for being irritating embodies this detachment. The suicide bit at the end I found quite hilarious, as it is saying that really, these men are cowards, but they know they are and embrace it. The employee is the obvious metaphor of the entire workforce, and the overworked people at the office show the middle class cogs of the corporate machine for what they are: disposable.

    Don't spam Bur, don't just post something like "post count uped" and don't double post. Post deleted. I believe you were talking about Che's post of "?" though so please don't just post something like "?" guys.

    Well, dont have to get all anal and delete my posts just because of a joke. Gosh.

    also, my post count has been increased as a result of replying to this so technically I just canceled it out therefore makeing you go through the effort of deleting one post due to a posable power addiction from being a moderator is now completely pointless!

    TAKE THAT!

    I wouldn't have deleted it if it wasn't a double post and spam. Power addiction for doing my job and removing your spam?

    It was also a double post. Is it so hard to understand why a double post that said "post count uped" got deleted?

    is it so hard to understand comedic effect and incorperating various features of a website to suplament a point I was making thus causing chemicals within the brains of those viewing the post to change and cause a chuckle reaction.

    Also, I uped my post count again

    You know what you can do next time you want to do that? Simply wait until someone else posts so that it's not a double post. If you have an issue with my actions as a mod you can PM me.
