bluefox4000 Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Doesn't anyone here remember the thread in Random "Why are 90% of this forum jerks?" i do but i also know Zumbi, lol At least that he's sensitive. Mick Do you think that he is the only sensitive person here? How many times has he insulted us? But that's all right? I'm not his biggest fan nor is he mine. so i limit my interaction with him. I know it was a harmless joke, Lorraine. most of us do. don't sweat it. :) Mick 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Do you think that he is the only sensitive person here? How many times has he insulted us? But that's all right?Agreed. He certainly doesn't have the market cornered on being sensitive. He may have a problem with the translation but it seems to me you were trying to be nice and include him with the rest of us... :) Thank you. That was the point. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Analog Cub Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 (edited) Farewell to Kings Ambassador has the power to strike Zumbi's vote from the record, since by his own admission it is not a serious vote but he is refusing to remove the no vote out of some pranksterish impulse. I make a motion to include Zumbi in the 90%!second. Wonderful! Then, without further ado.................................................. Zumbi, you are a jerk! After all I have done for you, and you call me a jerk...? Thanks.... Then I know that... Zumbi, do you know what a joke is? You have thinner skin than an onion. While she poked at that thread you made all those months ago that was an honest attempt of friendship from Lorraine.

LedRush Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 It is unfortunate but the only chance Rush fans have of agreeing on any song is to choose a song from the seventies (that would include Permanent Waves ;) ). Once we go past that time in Rush history, things get spotty. Not even everyone here likes Tom Sawyer :o . No agreement on anything in the 80's.

grasbo Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 First heard it on Exit when i bought it new back in the day.I liked it but i wasn't crazy about it mainly because it could have sounded better and that goes for the whole album.Soon bought AFTK and it blew the live Exit version away.Bought the Sector2 set recently and Exit sounds so much better than my vinyl and old unremastered cd.Its twenty minutes to the shopping centre from home and i gave Broons,Trees and Xanadu a good blast in the car.Did the same on the way back!
