45. what do you base your claims on?
Edited on Thu Jul-21-05 07:18 AM by SheepyMcSheepster
just curious.

I, like many others here, have grown up on video games. i don't feel that your generalizations hold water, i would like to know how you came up with your assertions.

here is a book you might find interesting: http://www.penguinputnam.com/nf/Book/BookDisplay/0,,0_1573223077,00.html

also, you have the lyrics to the song incorrect. by stating "motherfuckers" with an "s" you make it seem as if the song is about burning people. it is not. the song they were playing is by a group called Bloodhound Gang but the phrase is borrowed from rap/hip hop.

The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire,
We don't need no water let the motherfucker burn,
Burn motherfucker burn.

i agree, it is unsettling that troops would play thematic music while invading iraq, but they are in a ridiculous situation required to do ridiculous things ordered by ridiculous people.
