And I actually like Bowie (a little bit) but WHY use it in a medieval era story?

How come a "knights' tale" did not use the Chieftains?
"Because," she said, taking a big puff of her cigar, "ya gotta reach da kids! Kids dese days, dey don't know nuttin'! Ya gotta put in a little sex, a little rock'n'roll, a little Snoopy-Snoopy-Dog - Dat's what dey understand! puff "

(And I adore Bowie! But for the LOVE o' TIKI keep him out of a midieval banquet scene!!! Jimminy Cricket!!)

It IS insulting - that they make movies that dumbed-down. Are our teens THAT bad? Please tell me no; otherwise, I need to quit my job now, as it is apparently hopeless. At least they tossed in little bits to make the kids who'd vaguely stayed awake in their British Lit classes feel smug. ("Ooh, Chaucer! We were supposed to read him - um, not that I did...")

Formikahini, nuttin for nuttin, but kids dese days, they ARE bad...and pretty retarded too!Someone ought to just whack 'em out, and save us all from further embarrasment!

A typical conversation these days: "you know, what i am saying, just trying to represent..only ah ain't frontin homie, you know, gotta keep it real dog, you know what I am saying?

No kid, I have NO idea what you are saying, 'cause back in my day, we actually had intelligent conversation, and things like the debate team, and political science club, and astronomy club,,you friggin little mutt!!!! I don't even speak your language!

My Dad, who ain't even from dis country, would have said what Sinatra's dad said to HIM! "whattsamatta, you don't wanna loin nuttin??

It's a freakin nightmare, is what it is!!!

Times have changed...in my day, you had respect for people or ya get rapped across your face with a two-by- four!

These days, these little talking monkeys demand respect...respect for what?

Respect for the fact that you can use the word "like" in a conversation 78 times?

The other day I was just walking around by my work, smiling cause I am a silly, nutty-ass kind of guy..and I passed some little gang monkey, who started making "gang signs" with his hand, because he felt I was "disrespecting him" I guess he thought I was smiling at him!....

So I go, "hey kid, there is something horribly wrong with your hands!! Are you in need of assistance? What does that thing you are doing with your fingers mean?"

And he replied" "yo, 18th street number one essay, what you got homie"

From this, I took it to me that he was showing me his gang sign....(where are those cultural anthropologists when you need 'em)

so I said, "that's great son..you are in a gang? That's great! I am real proud of you! You are a real asset to society! Your country is proud of you, because you represent our future!
Only problem you now have is that you are all alone, and your other gang guys are nowhere near you!!!

At this, the little talking monkey kept on walking..he must have done the math and figured that I was totally crazy, and to keep walking!!!!

But, you know, I was just trying to get a little bling-bling, ya know? Like like like like!!!

Hey baccala face! They even named a highway in hawaii for ya, "like like"

Ok, that's my rant for the day!

cent anni!!!
