No it isn't.

Thank you, because it is SO important to spell slang words correctly.

Then why the hell did you bring it up in the first place?!?

You conveniently left out the part where I said "WHO CARES ANYWAY?"

So, you brought it up in an attempt to correct someone (erroneously) and then immediately contradict the supposed purpose of your post by implying that nobody cares? I fail to see the point.

I've seen a lot of pointless posts on this forum that weren't my own. Pretty much a fact of life Barnesy Rubble.

Especially when it's a well-established term with a fairly clear provenance, and "tallywagger" makes no fucking sense. 

It's also very informal, it's used primarily more in speech and less in writing, therefore my position is that the spelling isn't as important as you... make it out to be.

So what? I see a lot of stupid shit pretty much everywhere. That doesn't make it okay to do stupid shit.

Okay, fine! Whatever! I'm through with this discussion.

Awww, I didn't even get a chance to make fun of your name. You're pretty quick on that abort trigger.

You two ought to go see The Phantom Menace 3D together. Test your limits & discover... Which can you stand less: TPM 3D, or each other?

This could be the setup to an interesting survivalist scenario. Imrahil, you can join them too. I'll be sitting all the way in the back studying y'all as a sociological experiment.

Haven't you heard? Doc wants us to boycott theaters.

Ambitious, yet impractical. I doubt that enough people could be rallied to the cause to send any kind of significant message.

[Edward J Grug III]

Haven't you heard? Doc wants us to boycott theaters.

In general?

[Watchman]

Haven't you heard? Doc wants us to boycott theaters.

1. Who's Doc? (I'm assuming not "Doc" from Back to the Future)
2. What's the philosophy behind the boycott? Does it have to do with the change to digital projection?
3. What about old repertory houses that still use film projectors?
4. I have no 4.

1. Doctor Who? who rage quit the forum a while back, now unsuccessfully attempting to reinvent himself as Smith Dr John Smith.
2. SOPA/PIPA/ACTA/GOOSIO

3. and 4.

Oh, I was wondering what happened to him. I was recently perusing some old threads & noticed his account was unregistered.

Man, what is it about Captain America that's turned into a thread about (and involving) rage? I've seen Imrahil & Gunflyer fighting on other threads, but this Captain America thread is the first I noticed you & Gunflyer at each other's throats, Barnes.

So, one could say the Captain America forum works as an agent that takes the fighting over Star Wars, injects it with Stanley Tucci juice, and turns fighting into out and out RAGE!

Need I remind Gun & Im that you're breaking Anais' heart? (I don't know if you're friends with Anais, Barnes. If you are: you're breaking her heart too!)

Meanwhile, I've settled into the role of forgotten observer. I don't seem to piss off too many people anymore, but I don't leave much of an impression either.

Yessir, HATE is the currency of threads sprung from Marvellized concentration camps run by The Mask.

Okay, couldn't handle the poster as designed (just seems WRONG without Mike, Bill, and Kevin), so I created my own.

For the record, the new format using the actual actor's faces was not my idea. I believe they want to convey what they are actually doing to a larger audience, not only the fans who already know who Mike, Kevin & Bill are which is good.  In any case, as I've said before you can't please everyone.

Me too:

Nicely done!  I *really* wish they'd go back to the established format. I showed the official RT version to my wife, and she didn't believe it was done up by the RT team, that it looked like a kid put it together.

That kid got MAD SKILLS! 

[Jason Martian]

Oh, & I think the Captain America poster kicks butt.
