I'm Mad As Hell

    Who has seen the iconic 1976 movie, Network; in which a disheveled news anchor, Howard Beale as played Peter Finch, has an onscreen breakdown, leading to possibly one of the best speeches in movie history, which I also posted in the "Government to collapse today?" thread here? For those of you who haven't seen it, this is it below:

    So - the question is - would you shout, "I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore" if it was arranged across the country?

    Especially since this country is such a mess at the moment and people are mad as hell and not going to take it anymore - it could make for a nice little protest.

    Would you shout? 10 votes

    I would be so apathetic if I weren't so lethargic

    If you put someone on ignore do you still see threads they start?





    /first "who said that?" gets slapped

    Am I on ignore?

    Woo! Who said that?

    Actually I assume so, because you can still see that the person has posted if they're on your ignore list, just not what they've said.
