APOLOGY TO THE FORUM, except for the one who decided vulgarity was a good way to express their displeasure.

I would like to offer this public apology to those I offended. Due to some external things going on in my life I ranted to/at those who didnt need to deal with it, nor deserved it.

To those of you - I apologize.

The moral of the story is vulgarity works!
A man called FAQU is upset about MY vulgarity?

Wanted to reinterate what SheWhoHathAPen wrote. I got other places I would rather talk politics in, and while I like to think around Firefly, it really has nothing to do with present American or world politics, economics or what have you.

You can't run every second of every day. You have to sleep and eat and simply do different kinds of stuff. You have to think of something else, from time to time, besides the "One thing" that is the root of all problems. Or at least as far as FahQ is concerned.

Not everyone agrees with you, nor ever will. And I doubt you would like a world where everyone did. It would be boring as hell. Some folks come here to talk about Firefly, explore different nuances and things.

"Wash, where is my damn spaceship?"

Thanks - they were definitely shipped on the 9th.

But I am in the UK, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they will get here (even slowly is better than not at all!).

I think maybe they've got held up at Customs...

Book: “A duel?”
Wash: “With swords?”
Simon: “The Captain's a good fighter, he must know how to handle a sword?”
Zoe: “I think he knows which end to hold.”

Amazing that someone would use this phrase
>>Not everyone agrees with you, nor ever will. And I doubt you would like a world where everyone did. It would be boring as hell.<<
And follow it up with an utterly hypocritical and unsubtle hint to shut up and/or agree.

Looking for that boring world, are we ?
Dude got political, felt kinda passionate about it, who's forcin you to read it?

I also don't particularly agree with there being no politics in the show, just because there are no identical parallels in the present.
Look at the very context of Firefly for a minute, ok ?

Mal, Zoe, Simon and River all hold a political opinion not particularly cared for and respected, that no one else wants to hear - and they DO from time to time express it, especially Mal, even when it's not real wise to.

That's humanity and one of the better parts thereof is being able to get along without having to agree - telling someone that it's ok to have a difference of opinion while telling them to shut up cause you don't wanna hear it gives lie to the whole concept of such a thing.

No sense telling folks to shut up and leading into flameage, when you can just skim over and not bother to read posts ya don't want to - I am sure if something goes way off-base that Haken will handle it, ok?

Course, that too is just an opinion, with which one doesn't have to agree, disagree, or even pay a mind to, E Pluribus Unum and alla that.

Here, have some of my rum-laced eggnog and imagine the cast naked, it'll do ya good...

If your life is so small that you think your use of vulgarity worked in generating my apology-Well, if that is all it takes for you to feel better about yourself.....Who am I to disagree. I cannot bring myself to denegrate those with low self esteem.

Although I might point out your reading skills. FAQU? 'Nuff said. Your next flame will go unanswered.
