A thread about Fidel Castro resigning has far less posts than a thread about celebrity births. It's a sad, sad world.

So how about instead of complaining and bumping this thread back up to the top, you do something about it and try to keep things moving in the Castro thread? You're no better seeing as how you haven't posted in there.

I prefer to discuss my politics on more mature forums, sorry.

Oh, quit the high-horse-ness. There's only one person excited about celebs breeding, so why to bash everyone?

But really... what's here to discuss? The old geezer hasn't been ruling for some time anyway and nothing really changed. I bet everything's going to stay in the family anyway, even if his bro' quits as well.

Now, the independence of Kosovo would be something much more exciting to discuss, since so many countries are divided on that matter, the USA and Russia taking the exactly opposing stands - and the latter showing off its muscles on the international forum.

Did...you just seriously play the 'mature' card? I thought you were better than that.

I like the irony here. There's far too less of it and I applaud you for balancing the scales between that and sarcasm.

Sewer Bull, Mecha Cow, TheCure, KROW, etc.,

I didn't mean to offend you guys. I was merely making the observation that celebrity births seem to be more news-worthy than something that will actually effect people. It's not just this forum, it's society in general and it's ****ing sad.


And isn't the reason political discussions are banned on this forum because people couldn't discuss them maturely? I fail to see how I'm in the wrong with that argument. I come here, a ninja turtles message board, to discuss ninja turtles and other fun, albeit mindless things. I'm not about to start discussing politics on a ninja turtles message board. While there are many people here that I would love to discuss such things with, there are just as many people who would ruin it. I like it here. I like the people here. It's just not the place I would want to discuss certain things. Hell, I don't discuss politics on any message board, I'd much prefer to do that stuff in person.

Hell, I wasn't offended, at all. I liked your post. Like I said, it was ironic what you said and it offsets the sarcasm that creeps into the forum sometimes.

I agree that celebrities getting more attention for their deeds than political movements that could very well change the world (or at the most the infrastructure of an entire country) is a sad thing. That's why I stopped watching E!, MTV, VH1, and practically all other channels on TV and just play games, watch DVDs, and read the paper. I don't even watch CNN, CNBC, C-SPAN, and other news channels because all they do is argue. Heck, those channels are like a televised forum in themselves.

No offense taken, I was just messing with you.

I wasn't offended, either, it's just funny how you'd rather complain about it and add more to the thread you're resenting than add to the other thread. I'm the last person that cares about what celebrity is giving birth.

Ok first off.. You guys are silly to even respond to a thread you're not even interested in.

Secondly.... JLo and Marc Antony finally released the names of their twins, Max and Emme. These are also names of characters from the PBS series, Dragon Tales. Humm... Altho Max seems to be the IT name these days.

Find me one person who is genuinely interested in this pulp and I promise to stay out of these threads forever.

I kinda like the baby news. I mean, it's not my world or anything, but I don't mind it.

Plus I like to see the names.

Yay!! Jeri Ryan had a girl! Her name is Gisele. Her husband is french Chef Christophe Eme. That little girl will probably end up as hot as her mom.

Gisele joins older brother Alex (age 13) from Jeri's first marriage to the nummy politician Jack Ryan.

It's a girl for Halle Berry and her BF Gabriel Aubrey. No name as of yet. She was born yesterday morning.

It's a girl for Soleil Moon Frye (Punky Brewster). The name is Jagger Joseph Blue and joins big sister Poet Sienna Rose.

And yes...all research indicates that despite the very male name Soleil did have a girl. *blinks*

In other news:
Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry have named their daughter Nahla Ariela. They must be Disney fans.

Not only the name of Soleil Moon Frye's daughter is clearly a male one- it is macho and rugged. What is she trying to accomplish?

J.Lo's daughter's name may be a bit of a tongue twister.

I like the middle name of Halle Berry's daughter. Kudos if you recognize who in the TMNT multiverse shares it
