Patriotism taken too far, leads to racism... anyhoo - I am not being racist now - so what's the problemo ? and yes I'm saying Jonny and Mina use each other and other people, to become quite "powerful" - I know other people share the same views, but then I know a lot of the people here are minions to Jonny and Mina ... and yes Ollie, you have become an minion, I am sorry to say, but then I can see why you did, as all you look out for in life is acceptance, and Jonny and Mina have given you some acceptance, so at least you are happy...
I forgot to mention that I DO agree with the draw idea for the running order. Also, I feel that it would be helpful to always have a recap video, although I don't mind if the recap goes forwards or backwards. Maybe we can let the host decide on that.
Mark seriously WTF? What is this all about "minions"!? Because you're talking total and utter crap. You're not only insulting me and Mina you're also insulting Ollie, and well .. everybody we're friends with on this site basically. We don't try to become "powerful" because tbh I don't see how you can become "powerful" on an internet site. Please give an example of what me and mina are doing because I would love to hear it!
WOW an attempt for a low blow that failed abysmally you quite finished trying to wind people up, my sister can do better than that seriosly EVERYONE WANTS ACCEPTANCE AT SOME POINT u mug, look at mina + este they arnt our age and they hold themselves back because of it, therefore here we give them acceptance thats how friendship works if you ever call me a minion again i swear to god i will get somone to IP ban you or something, your destructivity is just too much, dont insult my friends either as they are way above any iunsult you throw at them stop using the little you know about us against us, as it just isnt working
Please, it's just an internet contest - what's the big deal!? If I would've been leaving Oslo for like two months, I wouldn't have concerned about missing updates etc such as like escchat.com, lol I love this site but it would've been the least thing I would've missed. and people who suddenly say that they actually wanted to wait for Mark: are you kidding?
What the fuck!? I sit in the sun for 4 hours and come back to find this do you just argue while I'm away to stop me getting involved? That's an interesting point actually; in it's purest form you're right, patriotism is not racism. But it's been shown in history, in Nazi Germany for want of a better example, that patriotism was encouraged as part of the totalitarian regime. Being proud of your country one is one thing, but sadly and very commonly, it's also comes part in parcel with looking down at other nations, and hence it can be argued that patriotism is a very dangerous thing and is most likely to lead to racism, given it wasn't there in the first place.
Jonny ... I have noticed for a while how you and Mina work... you may fool other people, including yourself, but you do not fool me. Ollie ... I know everybody wants aceptance, but I know you want it more than usual, you seriously shouldn't have told me personal things, then become a total twat. But I can see why you became a twat as you started to become a memeber of the Mina/Jonny gang, that's what happens to you ... and people wondered why I turned nasty this year ...
i meant in pure principal form look at the greeks on this site, non of them are the people on other sites i think mina can tell us for herself she isnt as extreme as nazism there are 2 greeks on this site (+ one cypriot) ...
Now I've read all the posts, and seriously - is it something to get mad of because you miss an unprofessiona random contest on the Internet?
Mark I asked you to give me and example of what we do to become as you put it "powerful". You didn't give me one you just gave me a poetic line about you watching us, so yes you have no grounds to make such a silly accusation. And stop insulting Ollie and grow up.
looked in the mirror as its the other way around 'mate' i dont want acceptance anymore as i have left my school i have the friends i want now why bother with anything else im obv in the mina/jonny gang when i dont speak to them outside of the chat and this forum ¬_¬ if anything i am in the david/stewart/jw gang as i talk to them on msn the most... you quite finished your abuse towards me?
Well maybe you don't know the real Mina, or should I say Elena. Elena has a hidden past, and I always wondered why she never used her real name on ESCtoday, and I've just figured out why. I always knew there was a reason why I never liked Mina... I do remember you Elena ...
POOP! Now that I've got your attention, let's end the discussion and see how we feel later. I think it's for the best.
SHEEP DON'T REMIND ME!!! I've got a history exam soon and I get to write 2 hours of essays about the Nazi's ... THE JOY!! But you do make a very good point ... but lets be honest, none of us here are patriotic to the point where we're Nazis At the end of the day theres nothing wrong with being proud of where you're from. Providing you dont use it to gain prejudices against other nations
Ollie, get yourself out of Mina's and Jonny's ass quickly, before you are lost completely... and we know David has turned you so no need to go on about him any more...
