I'll see what I can come up with for my own bio, but I already deleted what I wrote about everyone else. They can all send their own e-mails letting you know how they'd like to be characterized.OscarGuy wrote:Big Magilla wrote:I was happy with the description of moi.
I tried to write something about the key players myself. It was witty, I thought, but could be misconstrued as insulting, so I discarded it. Now if everyone had responded to the original request to wrtie their own bios...
Your task isn't over! Mwahahaa...
Anyway, I'd like to see what you wrote, because obviously everything's misconstrued anyway.
And I need an actual full bio for you for the site's new Staff page.
Anything you can send by email, though, so if you don't want to hurt anyone's feelings with your other, you're welcome to do so.

That's very nice of you, Sabin? It's been a long time since I've had a guy watching me...Sabin wrote:and Sabin, by calling you a film nerd against all the other film nerds, it was an attempt to set your geekiness above everyone else's in the humor department.
I'm going to take that and like it and say thank you. But I'm watching you.

Ditto. And I liked the history as a whole, as it was originally written. It was cute and humorous. Lighten up, guys.

Not your fault, Hustler. Honestly, yours was more of an attempt to say something, but I couldn't think of anything besides you disappearing for long periods of time without posting...

Apparently, no one caught the flow of humor early on in the descriptions. So, apparently, no one realized that all of my descriptions were meant as humorous anecdotes on persons attached (I mean, I called Eric a music queen...I thought it was funny). But everyone thinks these are personal attacks, which they aren't.

Thank you, Original BJ. I agree with you of course (I had to look on the dictionary to see what it means, and knowing the man I was almost relieved that it didn't mean Gestapo chief or Serial killer!). But if that's the way Oscar Guy perceives me, no problem - it's his own PERSONAL history of the board after all. Limited, maybe, but it's his right after all.
Wes, it's appreciated. I always love these retrospective journeys down memory lane, but, I mean, this is a message board. This is a place if, for no other reason, we may feel free to say what we're thinking. It's always appreciated, and I felt like commenting on the fact that apparently my most distinguished attribute on this movie discussion board is that I post about movies.
