Apr 07, 03 03:47 pm — I figured many people would get a kick out of this clipping that I put online, but after having it rejected as "inappropriate" two times in a row, I decided to post the link in a journal, which is my first journal posting by the way.
Anyhow, at some point I am going to write a journal that rants about what I perceive as problems on Madville and ways to fix them, but that'll be a long rant; therefore, I will save that for when I have more time on my hands.
Here is the link:
A Brief History of the United States of America
Oh! By the way, the link is to an MPEG-4 encoded video, so you may need the latest quiktime plug-in to view the video. Some of you may remember where it's from. ::grin::

I was figuring that because it was rejected twice that it would be something really stupid, but it actually wasn't that bad, kinda funny, just a tad longer then I prefer.
I loved it. A lot of stuff I submitted got rejected so I stopped submittting stuff.
Yup - it seems anything I submit that has to do with Canada, the US or Iraq gets rejected and it's not even "controversial" stuff. It gets very frustrating, especially when you take the time to look for a good piece. Maybe I will start a weekly journal - "My Top 10 Rejected Links for the Week" LOL
That's an EXCELLENT IDEA!
I think we should do it! =)
more michael moore stuff eh?
its a good movie, maybe not totally accurate, but still good.
the best part is when they have the "what a wonderful world" montage with all the attrocities the united states has commited.. its breifly sobering.
Should I post that to my next journal? =)
Yup... You just continue along the same path as though you aren't blinded by your patriotic, propaganda-induced fervor of ignorance.
How original... 
Here's what I think of your retort:
USA! USA! USA! USA!

Not gonna click on it you shithead! Good night faggot.
I am a faggot, now how's that an insult?
You suck dick!
When a nice one is available, yes. ::grin::
I'm afraid your's would be out of the question, so don't bother asking.
Jugg, some people you cant argue with... dont waste your time man
Since when does he actually try to argue rather than posting images, links to images, or just plain old insulting people?
I know . Sad part is that homo-boy suggested linking things via a journal, and I did and candyass gets all uptight. Did you get any damage from Saturday's storm?
i guess he gets frustrated so thats why he does that. not saying its right, but i think i see why he does it.
nah, just rained :) where do you live jugg?
Highland Park.
wheres that 
Dallas area.
well look at you! i have family in Dallas... not sure about were though. Have you heard of the Woodlands? its north of houston, thats where im from

I hate to dissapoint you, but I've never read any of your journals.
No, but I know Houston of course. Is that a city or a community?
its a city Houston is trying to annex, and we sometimes get labeled as Spring.
It's all good because it's Texas, proud home state of our great President Bush.::grin::
Oh brother....
You were one of the kids who didnt go to the pep rallies in your school arent you? ::grin::
I feel an image coming on .... LOL
Good call! Care to predict which one? ::grin::
It's gotta be the Eagle, mind you he used that one earlier I think. He will come up with something original - probably even disgusting LOL
Juggalo? Got something for us?

I think I've found a subject for my next Journal... A little piece of investigative journalism that exposes the Orwellian idea where the moderators are more equal than us.
I have done a little digging... It seems as though the moderators all enjoy 90%+ approval of any links submitted... Hmm... I will compile some statistics and publish them shortly. =)

*bleah*... It always bugs me when somebody starts bitching 'cause their link got rejected. Boo frickin' hoo. It's not some personal affront, just people trying to moderate a community the best way they know how.
Nothing but love for you.::grin::
Okay what are you up too? LOL
Yes, by moderating with a bias that supports their own personal viewpoints.
i think it would be hard for people to not be biased. No matter who you are. Whether you support liberal or conservative ideas.
And admins/moderators are people
The latest figures show that my initial estimate of a 90% approval rating for moderator submitted links is incorrect.
I have found, through analysing dj28's submitted links from the beginning of the year, that dj28 has submitted about 363 links (+/- 5 links). Of his 363 submissions, 77% were APPROVED; still a rather staggering approval rating. Does anyonw have a higher rating?
Also, of the 363 links that dj28 has submitted, 112 were Political / News related in nature. Now, of the 112 Political / News related links, dj28 has enjoyed a 71% approval rating for those links.
I still think it's odd that one of the most politically vocal members of the moderation pool has a 71% approval rating for any of his political postings.
I think I have a 0% approval rating for political links. Any comments?
LOL! ... I fucking love that video. I was hoping someone would post that online sooner or later. Thanks Ironix.
You are very welcome. At least someone appreciates me... Check out my next journal, another vid-link that has yet to be, but will be, rejected by the moderators.
