Trigger Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 (edited) How on earth can some of you take a post about the tragic death of a person and turn it into a trivial summary of shows you watched as kids? THERE IS NOTHING TRIVIAL ABOUT "THE FALL GUY." YOU TAKE THAT BACK! YOU TAKE THAT BACK RIGHT NOW. I start with an [ img ] tag, then I paste the url of the image I want to show, making sure the url ends with .jpg (or .png or .gif), then I close the tag with [ /img ]. I had to put a space in between the [] characters and letters so they'd show up in this post. Be sure to close yours. Here's an example that uses a JPEG: Here's one using a PNG: PNG's can support transparent elements. JPEGs can't. And here's one using an animated gif: An animated gif is a file format that supports the playback w/in the browser of multiple frames that each display for a predetermined amount of time. They can be set to loop w/o end, or stop looping after so many cycles. They don't support audio, but they give the illusion of video, Speaking of video... YouTube links, I just paste the full url into a reply window. The forum's cms takes care of the rest. If I want to link to something off-site (maybe posting it violates the photographer's terms or the content isn't appropriate for the forum due to language), I use the url tags. That way someone can't complain because, well, you clicked on a link that took you from the page. You rolled those dice. Here's an outtake video of Jean Claude Van Damme against a green screen as part of the Volvo commercial shoot: Edited December 4, 2013 by Trigger Link to post Share on other sites
Trigger Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 (edited) And of course... Yup. Another classic. As are these: And let's not forget that we live in a world that has Bill Murray in it. So we've got that going for us, which is nice. Edited December 4, 2013 by Trigger Link to post Share on other sites

How could you take a simple USAF press release about the F-22 and turn it into a political/conspiratorial/nationalist/religious rant? You can stop with the pearl clutching now. They will CGI him into Fast and the Furious 7 if that helps. Edited December 4, 2013 by TaiidanTomcat Link to post Share on other sites

TaiidanTomcat Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 (edited) You can quote me anytime. Trust me, i'm not making that mistake. You are absolutly right that Europe is f"cking things up just as much as the US is. Personnaly, i blame religion (or better the misuse of it). Sorry, but this whole story smells like BS. It has propaganda written all over it. Funny to see how you keep claiming that these are facts because the 'Chief of fracking Staff of the AF' said it. Wow, and we all know that a person it that possition can't ever lie. Like a i said many times before, all you have is stories. But hey, keep believing everything you are told. That's the way they like it. Not to be an overly pedantic A""hole, but how do you know that? And please don't say it's because it was released to the press and the pilot gave an interview Now let me make a few arguments here. The story made it to the press, so somehow they wanted it to make it to the press. Than i ask myself, why won't they show a nice video to go along with it Is Paul Walker even dead? Or do you believe whatever people claim? Where is your stringent burden of proof for this story? Where is the Video! Edited December 4, 2013 by TaiidanTomcat Link to post Share on other sites

Where is the Video! Waaw look at how much conspiracy i suspected there. Jus because i claim that when they make a press release they wanted to make that press release and it didn't happen by accident. And look at all the religious BS i spew there because i pointed out the source of many mistakes Europe made in the past (crusades) which are cause by religion. How dare i claim the US air force personel can lie. Man that has conspiracy written all over it. Funny that you don't make statements like that about quotes like this I was never implying that Americans are better or morally superior. What I am saying is that you need to differentiate the difference between a people and their government. The American people have been an undeniable blessing to the world. Period. Why? I'm not sure. I would guess that it has to do with America's Judeo/Christian foundation. But clearly that foundation has been compromised and something terrible is happening in the US as we are all witnessing now. Could it be because this one is pro-america where i had the nerve to question a story told by a US air force official? Edited December 4, 2013 by streetstream Link to post Share on other sites

Nationalism again? I make this super clear for you: IF you accuse someone of lying when they are not I will have an issue with that, be they German, Belgian, Canadian, or anyone else. You are trying to make it about nationalism, you are trying to distract from the fact that if you call someone a liar, especially someone who does this for a living, while you type on the internet, you better have some evidence to back it up. And you don't so anyone who tries to refute you, you accuse of being biased based on the country they come from. Edited December 4, 2013 by TaiidanTomcat Link to post Share on other sites

The point is, you took a simple thread and completely demolished it and took it off the rails by ignoring the very basic rules of General Discussion. And you don't seem to get that. So whether you are right wrong or indifferent, it doesn't belong here. You filled the entire thread with noise and disputed claims by credible people with zero evidence or experience of your own, other than your own paranoia. This is ARC. Not the StreetStream Forum.

And what is your comment that anyone who states something bad about the F22 is ofcourse jealous? And than you go and emmidiatly claim that US air force personel are credible. So in your opinion thay can't lie or even embellish a story? Because that's all i stated, that the F-22 can stalk a F4, but in my opinion some details may have been added to make the story sound cooler. Something i mentioned multiple times. And yes i dair ask questions about an unverifiable story, no matter how many times you say that air force personel are credible. That sure makes me paranoia. Also, one question.

Did you know there is a way of expressing disbelief without making it personal? And that other people emmidiatly jumped on me because my opinion doesn't fit their story? Actually a lot of people took a lot of time to explain it to you. They even tried to use things like pictures to help, and not all of them were americans. Several of them are pilots and many more actually served in the military. And what is your comment that anyone who states something bad about the F22 is ofcourse jealous? I would ignore that, and you should have too. PROTIP: When someone accuses you of jealously there is pretty much nothing you can say that doesn't reinforce the accusation. And than you go and emmidiatly claim that US air force personel are credible. So in your opinion thay can't lie or even embellish a story? Can you tell the difference between someone having the capacity to lie (which we all possess) and actually lying? That USAF people can lie is not the issue, its whether they are lying about this And if so by how much? and if it matters at all did the Cheif say "you really ought to go home" when the pilot simply said "You should go home"? oh the gory details of who cares! Because that's all i stated, that the F-22 can stalk a F4, but in my opinion some details may have been added to make the story sound cooler. Something i mentioned multiple times. So the religeon and politics were just added context? what am I missing? And yes i dair ask questions about an unverifiable story, no matter how many times you say that air force personel are credible. That sure makes me paranoia. I think it was explained many times why it does mean youre paranoid. Also, one question. Who's comment derailed this topic? Little hint, it's yours. I would have gone with this: I tried to lighten up the event, but he just died. But you can accuse me of whatever you like if that makes you feel better. You told me I could quote you, I did, and then you got upset again. Make up your mind. One second you didn't do any of that and then the next it was "well I did, but..." How about instead of continually trying to justify bringing a bunch of nationalism, conspiracy, politics, and religion into it, you just apologize and stop digging yourself deeper?

PROTIP: When someone accuses you of jealously there is pretty much nothing you can say that doesn't reinforce the accusation. So when you write some based on nothing people should just ignore it, yet you can't same to do that yourself. You really make it easy for yourself don't you. Can you tell the difference between someone having the capacity to lie (which we all possess) and actually lying? That USAF people can lie is not the issue, its whether they are lying about this You say he has the capability to lie, yet jump write up to claim he is credible (and again, i didn't even say he lied, he exaggerated in my opinion). So the religeon and politics were just added context? what am I missing? When someone states that Europe made crimes on the world since AD, i feel i have to explain that most of those crimes were made in the name of God. That is just a historic fact. if you want to label that as a 'religious rant', be my guest. But you can accuse me of whatever you like if that makes you feel better. You told me I could quote you, I did, and then you got upset again. Make up your mind. One second you didn't do any of that and then the next it was "well I did, but..." How about instead of continually trying to justify bringing a bunch of nationalism, conspiracy, politics, and religion into it, you just apologize and stop digging yourself deeper? Just because you take simple explainations about the reasons of wrongdoings in the past and immidiatly claim they are religious rants, and take terms like 'propaganda', which is still being practised on a daily base in many nation, to be nationalist i should follow you in that. And it's funny how you than claim that i accuse you of 'whatever' when you do nothing but accuse me. Edited December 4, 2013 by streetstream Link to post Share on other sites
