ernokaikkonen 0 #1 September 24, 2002 warning: contains a spoiler about the movie "seven" Ok, I have no idea why this popped in my mind just now. I have not been abused by any mean people lately, but I remembered a story and I just have to share it. You know, there are mean people out there. Not the ones that are outright evil, but just mean. 1996: I was doing my mandatory military service in the Finnish Military Defence Forces, and my platoon was assembled for the evening roll call. Then one of our instructors addressed us: "Men, how many of you have seen the movie 'Seven'?" *some hands are raised* "Well, how many of you are planning to go see it?" *more hands are raised, mine too* "At the end of the movie, the head of the detective's wife is found in a cardboard box. Good night. Dismissed!" The sheer meanness of the deed engraved the moment to my mind forever.Erno Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sangiro 4 #3 September 24, 2002 QuoteGo ahead, tell a story about a mean person! There once was this guy called Erno who posted on Dropzone.com. He did a post about how mean his instructor was in the millitary. He didn't ask whom of us had seen the movie "Seven" yet, he just told this story that ended with: "At the end of the movie, the head of the detective's wife is found in a cardboard box. Good night. Dismissed!" I hadn't seen the movie yet. That was just mean! And then he went back and added warning: contains a spoiler about the movie "seven" afterwards... that was just rubbing salt in the wounds!

It is an ARMY. It has GUNS, and TANKS, and FIGHTER planes. Your grandfathers have proven that in 1940 as they kicked (and yes they did, given the balance of forces) Joe Stalin's butt.

I guess Homer's version is probably a bit more like CP Snow's take on the Laws of Thermodynamics: You cannot win (that is, you cannot get something for nothing, because matter and energy are conserved). You cannot break even (you cannot return to the same energy state, because there is always an increase in disorder; entropy always increases). You cannot get out of the game (because absolute zero is unattainable).

The "lion with a tadpole in a jar" is an obvious reference to the Led Z song. Flying monkeys... Screen writers party, acid, LZ music, going home late, need a good excuse... we know the source of that movie. No wonder the youth of today are so corrupted.
