  • The end of the road West,

    Well that was quite sweet. I'm actually glad nothing overtly dramatic/tragic happened, and it just ... ended. And with a concluded feel, but not too tidy.

  • The end of the road West,

    And I can't see how it can finish tonight - how can that all be wrapped up in one show?

    I'm surprised it's not a two hour finale, but apparently it isn't.

  • The end of the road West,

    [Torchwood Spoilers follow.]

    I digress, but

    ...as with Ianto in Torchwood.

    I read this comment and decided to look up the character being referred to, because I've only just started watching Torchwood and I'm not used to the character/actor names (except Jack Harkness). Obviously, to regular viewers of the show, I encountered a bit of a spoiler, but it was worth it.
    I found the debate over the death of Ianto quite interesting.

    Anyway, back to OF... 22 minutes to go.

  • Hard News: Summer's record has come early,

    This familiar-looking bloke on Kate Rodger's show reckoned it was a bit alright (from 2 mins).

    Thanks, I'd seen the second half of that episode, and hadn't realised I had missed the review of Social Network (or that Russell was the reviewer).

    Edit: Also, I think that part of Kate's show should be longer. i'd like to see more time for her to talk to different guest reviewers about each film - it's a way of reviewing movies that tele is particularly suited to.

  • Hard News: Summer's record has come early,

    I'm looking forward to it - heard from reliable sources that it is pretty darn good.

    Edit: wait, is it showing here already? Where'd you see it Geoff?

  • Hard News: Morning in Auckland,

    I don’t know where you got your claim from, Peter; all I know is know is that you made the claim and it was rubbish. If you’re going to make a claim that’s a repeat of one you heard elsewhere, you should check it. Yours was a better example of making shit up than the one you were trying to attribute to Ross.

    What Ross wrote about me was ....................."A classic line from the likes of those who won't vaccinate (and NOT limited to this) their kids."

    Yes, he was saying your remark was the same as a line used by those who are anti-vaccination. And in his view, there is a comparison with the need for public collective vaccination and the need for information about the populace. You may not agree with that point, but regardless, he was not saying that you personally were necessarily anti-vaccination, and he didn’t throw any epithets your way intending to insult you. Yet you reacted to what he said by insulting him three times. So when you came back to the thread just to complain that you were insulted that was hypocritical.

  • Hard News: Morning in Auckland,

    Ross was making shit up about me

    When? All I can see is that he compared your comment about your total lack of trust and respect for our "leaders" with a similar line coming from many who are against vaccination. He did not, as you claimed, actually state you personally were anti-vaccination. He also didn't throw any insults your way.

    As it stands, it seems you feel you can insult people for making observations that annoy you, but whine if others do the same in reverse.

    And for an example of “making shit up”, see the comment about the census supposedly showing that twice the number of Samoan males live in NZ as females. It was by Peter grower.

  • Hard News: Morning in Auckland,

    Who would have thought that the mild civil disobediance of not doing a census would result in such a wide range of insults.

    You mean like "clown", "muppet" and "idiot"?

    All insults you were happy to call Ross.

  • OnPoint: On Freedom of Speech,
