[terrya]

That's all I'm going to say.

In another forum.

:hi:

[terrya]

3. Thanks

Ok...it was in the Classical Film Group.

It was a discussion of who was the better dancer...Gene Kelly or Fred Astaire...and the gloves came off. A real donnybrook. :-)

Thanks...

I'm going to stay out of the other forum for a bit.

:hug:

:hi:

6. Oh Terrya you are BAD!

I rushed over there to defend Gene's beautiful body and...:shrug:

[terrya]

7. Sorry, classicfilmfan

I don't participate in the Classic Film Group as often as I should. I shouldn't have used that very good forum as my example. :-(

I always liked Fred's style better. But I don't want to get into any more fights today. :-)

[BuelahWitch]

10. Don't worry, I won't fight with you re: Gene vs. Fred

Both wonderful dancers in their own right. Cyd Charisse said once her husband could always tell when her partner was Gene Kelly, b/c she'd come home with bruises on her. I guess Gene was rather rough, but he had a fantastic body...

Besides, you're a really nice guy and i wouldn't fight with YOU anyway! :pals:

[terrya]

13. I love both "Singin in the Rain" and "The Bandwagon"

But I have to give a slight edge to "The Bandwagon"...because of Astaire.

And yes, Gene Kelly did have a fantastic body. Those tight pants. :-)

And you're a really nice guy yourself. :pals:

[redqueen]

9. Awwww

what an adorable subject for an argument!

[NMDemDist2]

11. O the humanity, why doesn't donald O'connor EVER get his props

he obviously is a heel and toe above Gene Kelly and I have proof!!

[BuelahWitch]

12. It was probably all those Francis the Talking Mule movies

that put him out of the running. But yeah, loved him in Singin' in the Rain!

14. oh bother

15. I got sucked in last night.

It's like a vortex. I can't stop myself from going back.

This is crazy.


Also, I got called a troll by someone with 32 posts. I've been here 6 years and have almost 10000 posts. It kind of hurt my feelings.

[Phillycat]

18. At least 1/5 of brothers share your frustration.

:D

[racaulk]

19. It's all about respect, you Hillbot! I DEMAND RESPECT!!!

Good grief... :rofl:

I'm so glad that crap was finally locked!

[terrya]

20. Thanks to the mods for locking it.

Yes, it might have been a stupid post. But I was just taken a bit aback at the attitudes expressed in that post.

:-)

[racaulk]

23. You're not the only one that was taken aback.

He was throwing around ad hominem attacks to those that disagreed with him and tried to point out the fallacies of his logic, like "you don't care about democracy," "you're what's wrong with this forum," and "you're hurting our board, our party, and our country." And saying that the minority should STFU because the majority had a "right" to not hear disagreement.

But in the same breath he would accuse others of using Rovian attack techniques. Teh irony! :rofl:

Yes, a big thank you to the mods for shutting that thread down!

[LostinVA]

24. .

:rofl:

[texas1928]

21. EH Everyone knows Travolta is the best dancer of them all.

Glad to clear this up...
