Can't believe Rourke didn't win...absolutely jobbed.

What a joke.

A joke? Have you seen the other performances? Look, if I had an Oscars vote, I would have voted Rourke for Best Actor BUT only barely ahead of Sean Penn and Frank Langella. Penn and Langella were crazy-good in Milk and Frost/Nixon, respectively. Richard Jenkins was also pretty damn stupendous in The Visitor; in a weaker year, his performance would have been good enough to win the statue.

Each of the non-Pitt nominees for Best Actor turned in performances worthy of the Oscar. Penn winning was most certainly not a joke.

I have slept...and now I am wondering if I am mentally challenged. I actually got into an argument with "professional Wrestling" fans, with mental superiority issues.

I was thrashed with the equivalent of "pwned" arguments and video clips of....you guessed it, Pro Wrestling. Not to mention the incredibly intelligent argument of "You have never said that you haven't taken it up the ass by Manchester United, so you must have....GOOD NIGHT, I WIN."

A dog pile, if you wish, with probably less teeth out of the group than an Arkansas NASCAR fan.

Yeah, I must be mentally challenged.

I'd say you are, because you're missing the point. We weren't attacking you with those clips and references, because (as you have said) you wouldn't understand them. What was being lost in translation was part of the humor.

For you, it must have been like people joking about you in a foreign language. There's no way that you could have participated. The idea was that you would give a futile attempt at communicating back to us, while we continue to talk over your head, the frustration and futility combining to make your reactions even funnier.

And you delivered very well.

The references about my kid were over the top, the rest was me just picking the scab.

On another note, how many of the nomimated Best Actor movies have you actually watched?

I figured you had, you seemed to have a good grasp of all of them. I will say I am impressed. As much as you and Domer butt heads...he went out and watched all of them also.

So you come on the next morning and start right where you left off.

Great way not to get into an argument, that.

Go back and find the first remark disparaging someone's intelligence.

In reference to a post I made about the glaring lack of taste you displayed by saying you didn't like No Country For Old Men:.

Only because you were videospeaking, a sub culture language.. I like it when people have to resort to foreign language to make a point.
