I didn't explain what precipitated that last post. It was your comment about people writing in a way that they would never, ever talk.

I am always exiting threads when u post alot as that image causes me nightmares. ITS SO SCARY!! yikes. anyway, if you change it i would greatly appreciate it, it will really help me sleep better.

Deuce, deuce....

Check it:

It's an old silent movie from here in the states, circa 1927 I think. Nothing to fear...

but it didn't help if anything it makes me more scared. the movie looks scary and strange and they say it has a cult-like following, which further demonstrates just how scary this is. also it is made in Germany, which as a Jew still gets me scared. yikes.

I don't know how to put this, other than I clearly didn't consider the racial and social implications of the connectivity between germany and you...I couldn't apologize more.

I'd be scared too if I saw that connection. It just didn't click; maybe it's your name. I just don't think "Tel Aviv" when I read "Deuce".

Maybe it's just me...

Not to worry, deuce et. al. For one thing, Metropolis was made in 1927, before all the nasty stuff. For another thing, the director, Fritz Lang, made a film that Goebbels didn't like. He fled Germany in 1933, "in part because of a Jewish heritage", (http://www.sensesofcinema.com/conten...s/02/lang.html) and ended up in the good ol' USA where he made lots of Hollywood films.

That's comforting to me as well. I knew not of this guy's plight during those times. Thanks for the heads up...

"This is my Girlfriend/Boyfriend and fuck you it's none of your business if we are EVER getting married" sounds more like Keith and sounds more fun to say.

That's cool, Good ole Fritz being down with "the tribe" and all, and maybe I may even like the movie should i ever watch it, but it doesn't change the fact that emkje avatar or whatever scares the bejezus out of me

Anyway, ever wonder what that word actually meant?
