I've seen episodes of 2 and half men funny compared to Family Guy. I shit you not.
2 and a half men people!!! Do not underestimate the significance of this.

I actually watch Two and a Half Men semi-regularly. It's the only sitcom I can even tolerate.

I don't see how Family Guy is any worse than South Park. Both are highly overrated and highly obnoxious. South Park is actually funny, and the jokes are actually relevant to the episode, unlike Family Guy which seems to throw random jokes in all the time. Anyway, as far as "Things you think that no one seems to agree on". goes, I'd like to put forward "Third party characters in the Super Smash Bros. series". Now personally, I am against them, because I see the Smash Bros. series as a kind of a "Nintendo character beat'em-up game"; the key words being "Nintendo character". I'm all for someone to do a Nintendo Vs. Sega game, but I believe that this kind of thing should be kept separate from the Smash Bros. series.

I despise intentional ignorance. I don't care if you insist on not believing something, but at least show the state of intelligence to know what it is you don't believe.

South Park is actually funny, and the jokes are actually relevant to the episode, unlike Family Guy which seems to throw random jokes in all the time. Family Guy's problem is not the randomness of its cutaways, but the fact it runs the same joke for two long, and often with no subtlety. If you don't get, or even, if you dislike, a joke on family guy, bad luck, you're going to have to sit there for 5 minutes putting up with it. And South Park - especially recently, does this in 22 minute form. Dig a joke about Queefing? You're in luck. Don't like it? Well bad luck for you. For the record I like South Park more than Family Guy but both are good. Surely we can all agree though that Two & A Half Men is fucking terrible and every person I've seen that says its one of their favourite tv shows needs to die. Horrifically.

Sacha Baron Cohen is not funny by any means. Good actor? Maybe. I won't judge him there. But honestly, the man does not make me laugh. And I'm talking strictly objective here, not bothering with the fact that he's offensive (I honestly don't care about that.) He's not funny. Just friggin' annoying.

I think texting is pointless. Its stupid and everyone does it. People text everywhere especialy during movies which annoys the hell out of me.
I just think talking is easier anyway.

I don't text, either. I don't hate people who do, but I prefer talking to people anyway. *shrugs*

Whoa hello. That's new. I was unaware that talking to someone real-time was actually more of a challenge than typing up a message with fingers twice as large as the keys and waiting for a reply. I'll have to start texting more often. </sarcasm>

I'll have to start texting more often. </sarcasm> Texting and conversation are two completely different niches. If all you want to do is relay a simple message to someone there is no reason to ring that person up, hope they answer and interrupt whatever they where doing at the time when all you have to do is send a short e-mail for them to read at their leisure. (half-asleep, forgive poor English if present.)

Okay. I have a simple message for my friend Kyle. I want to tell him to grab a new game. So I text him. By the time he reads it, he already bought the new game. Or he wants to tell me to buy a game. Or immediately after I send it, he knocks on my door. Or he doesn't have a cell-phone.
Alternatively, I give him a real call. I wait a few seconds for him to pick up (if he does.) We have a quick chat about what we've been doing, we learn some interesting things about each other's days. I tell him I know a game he'd like. I tell him the game. He's like "AWESOME! By the way, I know a game you'd like." He tells me the game. We get in serious nerd talk about game. We finish up the conversation with "By the way, I'm coming over, we're going to the mall to meet Brian, then the three of us are going to play Laser Tag." And we're done. All this is missed while I'm sitting there texting.
Also, sorry for being a douche. I'm just irritated because of a lack of logic going around another site I'm on.

Okay, so let's say your friend is in another room, now, would you call your friend just to say, "Hey! I'm in the other room, what's up?!" Yeah. You shouldn't hate texting because it's something girls do, or whatever. In fact, chicks dig guys who text

Please. I find texting impractical. That's my issue with it. Not because such-and-such a person or such-and-such a group does it.
