Discussion of episodes currently airing in Un-American locations (anything that's aired in Australia is fair game), as well as anything else the Un-Americans feel like talking about or we feel like asking them. Please use the show discussion threads for any current-season discussion.

see how I cunningly make it relevent?
Er... frankly, no.
Zoe? I'm trying to say this so it doesn't come out rudely, but: do you actually read the conversations in a thread before you post in it? Because lately it seems to me that you just toss things out there with no understanding of what's being discussed (I've noticed it both in this thread and in UnAmericans at WX), and I find it disruptive.
Yes. As a matter of fact I pretty much read every single post.
It is OK to have a different point of view, yes?
There's been sort of a moratorium on discussing it among me and my friends. It's considered quite a gaffe to even bring it up in many circles in NYC, perhaps because of 9/11. And the people who do, on both sides, seem to want to talk only to people who already agree with them.
I don't think this is just in NYC. I've noticed it everywhere. It's a heated subject, and it can into an argument. Often, it's just more comfortable to let it lie.
t edit: I mean in real life, not here.
It is OK to have a different point of view, yes?
Absolutely, and I never said it wasn't. It's just that you have a habit of posting things that are irrelevant to the conversation, which is frustrating in an in-depth conversation like the ones we seem to be having a lot of in this thread lately.
That is not a fair allegation.
My posts are always relevent although often tangential and occaissionally pointed and on rare occaisions humerous. I do not write essays I just say what I think.
My posts are always relevent
A lot of people would disagree with this, Zoe. You might want to stop by the Bureaucracy thread, since we're actually discussing it right now. I know several people have tried to get your attention about it, but the conversation is still on-going, and if you want to weigh in, this is the time.
That is not a fair allegation.
Perhaps I should state, then, that it's just my opinion. Sorry if I have offended you.

Got to agree that your posts do often baffle me, and I'm still trying to fathom the context of the Star Wars one.
Zoe, the Bureacracy conversation regarding you starts here. If I were you, I'd go look, but I realize we may handle such situations differently.
It's OK. I know the points I make are sometimes oblique and I do usually try to clarify them. It takes me some time to do so.
Please bear with me. I am looking at Angel (and other shows too) as a form of modern philosophy and trying to tie together ideas without getting too serious about it all. There are fascinating discussions in this thread but it is also the UnAmerican thread. We could create a Politics thread I guess but the idea has, I believe, been vetoed many times.
