No, this is incredible

Post by billy_wires » Thu Oct 16, 2003 3:33 pm

I find it incredible the fine line between decency and obscenety. For example, I don't know how many of you watch the Daily Show, but they recently ran an editorial on the California "Healthy Penis" campaign, targeting the rise in syphilis. It features a cartoon penis, which I found quite humerous. So, joker as I am, I tried to do a project on that for a contravercial issue (I know it is spelled wrong, shut up). I knew I was running a risk, but thought I could scrape by with a video and picture as long as I came off serious. Sure enough, I got a zero. No big whoop, right? So the next person goes, and his topic was Creation vs. Evolution. He featured that famous painting on the roof of the Sistine Chapel, which conveniently shows a naked man. He got away with it, and I wouldn't be suprised if he got full credit. I brought it up, and his argument in defense was resolution. [quote=He]The picture wasn't that clear.[/quote] Well, I think that a foam penis costume is pretty unrealistic, so if a blurry penis can pass, why not a smiling, foam one?

*exhale*
I feel so much better saying that now.

P.S. If you want to see the video for yourself, it is on the Comedy Central web site under the Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Click videos, then Mo Rocca, then the video titled "Sore Loser." It comes complete with a thumbnail picture for easy identification.

P.S.S I didn't get to the video, by the way. I was stopped at a picture I included of him. The reason I include this is because the video has hidden messages.

I have to ask for what type of school you got to, because differnet schooling systems have different rules, although yours seems like a contemporary school.

My suggestion: Bitch and bitch and bitch about it until they either give you credit, or get really mad and yell at you. Then you can bitch at them for yelling. :?

I go to a regular public school, but it is in the Bible Belt (the south) so one could almost say that it is expressing favoritism to religion :?. But I do mean ALMOST. I don't want to turn this into a religious fight, I just want to blow some smoke.

By the way, it should look like,

I don't recall you being required to post garbage on topics because you don't agree or don't appreciate the topic. But perhaps Phade changed the rules on me. Oh well. I can say this though, until I get the notice, please do us all a favor and shut up.

Whoa there, Sparky! What the hell is your problem? In no way was my post meant as an insult of any kind. I had a similar situation back in highschool, so my post was a fucking suggestion, if not an entirely serious one.

Come back when you stop PMSing.

:oops: I am deeply sorry. :oops: I jumped to conclusions too fast, as you can see I've had sort of a rough day. I thought, partly because of the emoticon, that it was sarcastic. :oops: Once again I am sorry, and I appreciate your input. :D
By the way, I don't think that the females of the forum would appreciate your PMS comment. :wink:

It's allright I guess... don't worry about it.

Nah, my situation was that for a movie we filmed for class, we acidentally recorded on a porno tape that belonged to my classmate's brother. They were gonna give us no credit, and made us stay during the break for a serious discussion with the teacher, the psychologist, and the principal (Facing a detention or suspension, 'cause the teacher had shown the movie during class :lol: ) . We explained several times what happened, but they just kept blabbing about "corruption in youth's minds" and whatnot. We would've probably stayed there all day, until I stood up, looked down on the faculty, and essentially yelled what had happened in their faces. The conversation broke up fairly quickly after that, and we turned in the movie again, minus the porn.

There's a follow-up to that story, but it is not very relevant.


So, the moral is: Either check your tapes for porn, or be prepared to argue heatedly when people are being stubborn. It works sometimes.

By the way, I got assigned today to write a speech for english class on why children shouldn't be filtered from internet porn. I think I have some pretty good arguments.
