So we’re trying out this “game” at the office. We are not allowed to dis(respect) anyone in our office. Anyone outside of our circle is fair game, otherwise we are to pay a fine of 2 bucks (ZAR).
Difficult. So far, I’m the only one of the loudmouths who hasn’t had to pay up yet. My turn is coming, I can feel it. There’s a slipup just waiting to happen…
Another thing I posted to the forum:
I would like to know since when is the word ‘’sh*t” an acceptable thing to hear on the so-called ”family” sound track?
I watch movies on DSTV with the family sound track enabled, not because I find swearing offensive, it doesn’t bug me at all, but because I don’t want my 2 year old and 4 year old to learn offensive words until they’re at least 6. So much for that idea.
Obviously the people who edit the soundtracks for ”family” viewing don’t have kids of their own, otherwise I’m quite sure that the soundtracks would be far cleaner than they are now.
EDIT: I find it really amusing that the forum censored my post with the disputed word. Perhaps the soundtrack editors should take note?
I posted the following on our local DSTV (Digital Satellite provider) forum:
I find that the reason for replacing ‘Bruce Almighty’ on Sunday night was ridiculous. ‘Possible tsunami references’? Eh? Come on, give me a break.
If multichoice is going to use stupid reasons like that for not showing a movie, they might as well shutdown the entire service and refund our money.
For goodness sakes, a person could find something offensive about ANYTHING that is shown on MNet or DSTV. Don’t be so damned ridiculous!
