though honestly... tell me that you dont do this... you're in a public bathroom and you can hear that someone in the stall is letting his bowels loose and you walk by and bang hard on the door... come on... i'm sure we've all done that

A round of applause and a cry of 'Nice one' achieves similar results

I don't find amusment in causing distress and embaressment to other people.

I do

edit: except the distress bit, embaressment (sic) is okay

Cruelty doesn't suddenly become OK when done for someone's amusement. Now if you're all friends with each other and you understand that you are all cool with it, it's one thing, but it's another thing with strangers.

I guess so much for considering yourself Apolyton's moralist amongst a group of sinning liberals. You talk on about premarital sex and alcohol as being immoral, but you can't grasp not treating other people with deceny as being immoral.

I never pull stunts like that on people. I would never want them done to me.

Thanks, GePap

David Blaine, although often boring - is a well mannered, casual guy who probably doesn't give a * about a couple of virgin, unemployed clownf* leftists out to make some kind of counter "statement" or fagwhine about people's own stupidity in nearby traffic

He looks a little too chubby in the face for someone that hasn't eaten...

[Zylka]

Actually, who am I to assume they're leftist - only according to the biased reactions here on a gaming site

They're simply complete losers!

BD:

you are being ridiculous! the person in the stall is not going to spend the rest of the day crying and me banging on the door will not be the last straw of a life-time of harassment that makes him put a gun to his end! i'm positive almost everytime, after a few minutes, the guy chuckles to himself realizing the humour in what just happened. when someone embarrasses, i'm ticked off and annoyed at first but then i realize the humour in it and the humour in my reaction. it's all good.

Dude, people don't have that attitude in general - they're going to feel harrassed. This is especially the case in the new school you're attending, so don't go around picking on people as if they're well minded friends of your own

I don't think it was a statement (you yanks are SO sensitive), it was just something to do for a laugh (you do have that over there, don't you )

Then get a makeover and go on Rikki Lake, in a 'you used to bully me, but look at me now!' show.

Stuff like that (and the eggs) is just fun and games. No biggie

...but it's not at all funny

That's the thing, losers never have a sense of humor, and are always the last ones on to picking up and using specific jokes (ie. "Is that your final answer" used even two days after the first airing, "SLOWWHAND TO CUBA" 4 months later, for all the sharp knives in the kit we know as Poly)

It's *ing stupid and irritating, in short - and I'd like to see if they find it just as funny if Dave pelts them in the face with rocks and rams a pencil into their eardrums as soon as he gets out.

"Funny" would be someone setting up the same stunt across the street and vowing to go 45 days. Humor is a grown up, acquired taste - you'll eventually learn.
