But is it a hairy stompy foot?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Do we need to vote? It seems most people liked Something to Sing About.

I think there's a body of people who prefer "Swells".

I hope Caroma does not mind if I answer her. I think Caroma missed one aspect of Buffista culture - and if she can really grasp it and stick to it, she can unban herself from natter. That is there is an important hypocrisy to Buffista courtesy - and it is not politically biased. That hyprocrisay is that personal attacks are not okay - unless we are sure they are behind your back. That is you can personally attack Julia Roberts or George Bush or Bill Clinton or Al Gore or Ralph Nader or Noam Chomsky - because none of them post on this board. But you can't attack anyone personally - even in the most mild way by calling them smug or not-bright if they post on this board. Also - not revelent to your case, but for the record, you can't post stuff that is racist or that denigrates women or gays or the disabled or whatever.....
I would say the most frustatring thing to me about being personally attacked on this board is that I immediately think of great comebacks - and can't use them because they violate Buffista courtesy. Do you know how frustrating it is to have to suppress a really good retort?

Have we definitely decided against a Movies thread? Because I came up with a great argument against it, but I don't want to post it if it's beating a dead horse.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm curious, Michele.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Have we definitely decided against a Movies thread?
I would say that the consensus at this point is to have only a Music thread and no general movie thread.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I realized that it would have to be an entire thread full of whitefont. Music, unlike movies, doesn't have a plot to get spoiled. If you're in the LOTR thread, then you're there to talk about at least the first two LOTR films, and if you don't want to be spoiled, you don't go there. But -- as your surprise, ita, at getting spoiled for Love Story in I think it was the Angel thread reminded me -- there will always be someone who hasn't seen the movie under discussion in a General Movies thread, and so you're limited to reviews of new films and whitefont for everything else.
