Don't you just love it when people look at presented facts and say, "Oh, facts! Why, you must be upset."
Ritual is what happens when we run out of rational.

Why would they be mutually exclusive?
One can post facts, and be mad. Or, in this ccase, one can post facts after ridiculously missing the point.

They aren't necessarily mutually exclusive, but they are separate things. While it's not out of the question that they can occur together, it's not necessary that they do. One doesn't need to be mad to call attention to facts any more than one needs to be outdoors to be walking.
I do not need the written code of a spiritual belief to act like a decent human being.

Yeah, but when someones jokingly says offhand that the sky is green, and someone goes into a factual rant about how blue it really is - it's hard not to laugh at them. Like I said, missing the point.

Or maybe, just maybe, someone is not english native and may have miss the double meaning of a sarcasm.

You're absolutely right. I tend to take for granted that we're all speaking the same language, and can forget that the internet is an international forum.
So - my apologies for jumping to conclusions.

So, what show do you all think Summer will sink next? Maybe she'll replace Charlie Sheen and get Two and a Half Men put down. I could see her joining House and killing that. Oh how about V?

I think she'll play River Tam in Firefly, Season 2
That's what a ship is, you know - it's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that's what a ship needs.

*sigh* if only Joss had killed her in Serenity. Apparently he hasn't heard of the curse.
Maybe they can pull a star wars and rerelease it with the real director's vision. Have the primary buffer panel fly off at the end and whip right through the cockpit decapitating her. Have some blast doors that slam down so Mal doesn't get killed by the vacuum of space. Then have the "what was that?" line and we'll all have a good laugh as the credits roll. All fixed.

If you were pulling a Poe's Law with that post, then allow me to applaud you, as that was masterfully executed. For real.
Honestly, I think the "backlash" Summer gets online has more to do with the behavior of some of her more hardcore fans than anything to do with Summer herself. Even if her looks/acting/personality doesn't do it for you, she's hardly offensive.
Edit: Never mind, I see you meant that you didn't realize I was being sarcastic. Dude, even if I wasn't, the comment about Keith David was hardly a knock against Summer. No need to leap to her defense. Really.
