The 'Make An Honest Confession' Thread! Part V: Rebirth

[enterthemadness]

Sometimes I post weird crap just to get people to post the Leo or Sam Jackson smile icons.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

It's more along the lines of "I'm just reminding you guys I'm a pretty big *****e in real life, too".

 

[Kane52630]

I'd have preceded it with "I confess" for this topic, but it's not really the best term when all of those who know me via Skype can already attest to that fact.

This is true.

Sometimes I post weird crap just to get people to post the Leo or Sam Jackson smile icons.

I find that hard to believe.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, ETM you're just a weird cat

 

[enterthemadness]

I find it harder to believe there's 5,000 other Kane's on this board.

 

[Tangled Web]

I haven't posted here in a while.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Welcome back fool

I confess that I hate when people confuse "realistic" with "real". "Realistic" is just something that seems real, but isn't. Honestly, "believable" is a far better word, and takes into consideration the fictitious nature of the world being presented.

For example, take Superman's world and Batman's world as separate entities (not part of the DCU). Superman is inherently more believable because the basis of his world is that there is a god-like alien that exists. Thus all the funny little oddities, such as nobody recognizing Clark because there's no way such a meek guy could possibly be a god-like figure (plus Superman doesn't wear a mask, so he probably doesn't even have a secret identity to reveal) just fall into place and make sense. Batman's world tries to mirror reality, and it does so, aside from the glaring fact that it's near impossible for someone (even someone as wealthy and dedicated as Bruce is portrayed) to be that adept in so many diverse fields while also being fairly young. Batman might be more "realistic" than Superman, but Superman's unrealistic nature makes him and his world more believable.

I hope that made some sense, as it's 2:30am and I'm going to bed.

That reminds when I was talking to this dude about Dark Knight and Superman Returns. He said he loved Dark Knight because it was more realistic and he hated Superman because it was unrealistic that he could fly. I was rolling my eyes thinking that the only thing he found unrealistic was that Superman could fly ? Not the fact that he could get these abilities from a yellow sun or that even though he's from another world that he looks exactly like us ?

 

[SuperFerret]

The deal is that once you accept those basic qualities of Superman, everything else falls into place more or less.

 

[E-Man]

I confess that watching Avatar episodes again has me reconsidering Sokka as my fav of the four. The dude is the ****, but Toph is like a kick ass teddy bear. She's so cute, but manly at the same time.

 

[SuperFerret]

I've been wanting to do a recast of that show.

 

[E-Man]

Do it. Do it now! Recast Avatar! DO IT NOWWWW!

 

[HisMagicTrick]

I'm much more timid on the internet. My complex of wanting people to like me is somehow strengthened by not seeing these people in person. So I try to be nice, even to butt heads who don't deserve it.

I'm the same way. I mean, I don't necessarily want everyone to like me, but for some reason I just can't be rude to people on the internet (well, most of the time, anyway ).

 

[enterthemadness]

Yeah, ETM you're just a weird cat

Joker Dark Knight weird or Eric Young TNA wrestling weird?

Did you punch him in the face..?

That warrants a punch in the face...

[Anubis]

That's pretty f**kin' weird.

 

[SuperFerret]

It's still a step above GhostRider87 weird.

 

[Anubis]

But of course.

 

[E-Man]

I confess that I am actually thinking of changing my last name.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

Yeah having "C" as your last name is kind of like some Prince or Cher ****.

 

[Manic]

Yeah having "C" as your last name is kind of like some Prince or Cher ****.

More like Sheila E. or Jon B.
