Spokesperson For Industry - Thread Observation

What is the word to describe someone who refuses to follow the simplest of instructions, instructions or requests for a compliance that has nothing to do with life or death, nothing stretching the basic freedoms, nothing that will cause physical, emotional, or other collateral damage?

In other words, if it isn't life or death, or usurping your freedom, or causing collateral damage, "shut up and do what you are told"?

Some people may conform under those conditions, I guess. Can't imagine anyone who thinks for themselves doing such a thing though.

Everyone seems to be dancing around the issue here. The real issue is that there are a few elitists who are trying to hijack the wedding market, and have chosen an us v. them approach, belittling and disregarding anyone who doesn't think as they do along the way. If you require evidence of this, there is a truckload of it. The response should not be surprising. Rarely does an effective leader rise from either extreme. It's just the nature of stuff.

Until both sides of this issue agree to acknowledge and debate the talking points of the other side, expect more of the same.
 
Or... I said this earlier...

This really isn't that important to get anyone's shorts in a bunch.

Some followed the directions, and some didn't... so what? It's a DJ chat board folks. Let's party and have some fun... it's not that big of a deal!

I really want to talk about lights and speakers and truss and brides... damn, not who's our leader.

You know, this board was fun for a few weeks. It has recently been hijacked, and now it's just pathetic.
 
How much longer are we going to beat this dead horse?

Brian, who are you refering these statements to? I'm very sorry you feel that way... It isn't our intention (staff wise)
 
You Know I Love You Bryan

You know, this board was fun for a few weeks. It has recently been hijacked, and now it's just pathetic.

But we have made it "pathetic" TOGETHER!
 
Brian [sic], who are you refering [sic] these statements to?
You've gotta be kidding me. Is that a rhetorical question?

Now that's just plain funny. :sqbiggrin: :sqlaugh:

If there were 10,000 of them there evil critters (those damnable wealthy elitists) in the USA, then perhaps it would be time to consider another job or joining their ranks.

But let's look at this once more before taking the cyanide pill as Paul Revere rides through your town crying out, "The Merrys Are Coming. The Merrys Are Coming.".

Challenge the credentials of any alleged elitist. Pointed hard business related questions. Political fun stuff.

Statement: $10K a show.
Question: How many $10K shows a year?
Statement: Not for public dissemination?
Question: What is your expense outlay for a $10K event.
Statement: That's proprietary information.
Question: Okay, respected. What's your current annual income?
Statement: Neither is that anyone's business.
Question: Why do you expect anyone to believe you?
Statement: (still waiting, aren't we)

Went through this several years ago and still no answers. Thought fodder us free thinking, independently conforming, non-conformists, nothing more.
 
Rick: That's what forums are for. Annihilate the elitists, I tell you, kill them all. Muuahhhhaahhaaa-ha. :sqmad: :sqmad:
 
Rick : The thought was more along the lines of clubbing them. We could use Maui-Chuck's fairway woods. They don't do him much good.
 
Where else can we have so much fun BSing around about the biz?

If this was a corporate bbs we'd all have been in the clink by now. That's after a mod with a god complex admonished us all by talking down to us like we were junior high school students. :rolleyes:

I love ODJT. :)
 
Fred,

I love ODJT too, but I had a thought, so before beddy bye time, I'll leave these words from one of my favorite songs (seems to involve a virus or something)...


They call it paradise,
I don't know why.
You call someplace paradise,
Kiss it goodbye...
 
Now that's just plain funny. :sqbiggrin: :sqlaugh:

I'm glad you find it amusing. A lot of us do not.

Typical response when someone questions the Love Story Squad: "black helicopters, tinfoil hats, grand conspiracies, you are nuts because you don't want to make more money, paranoid, delusional."

At least they are consistent with their response AND their message.

Message: belittle, divide, condescend, create strawmen, and attack personally instead of supporting their OWN message, whatever that may be.

So far the only message received is "we are better than you and higher priced, and if you do not do things like us, then you are going to be trashed in the eyes of your target market, and not be recognized as a legitimate part of "our industry."

Response to dissent: belittle, divide, condescend, create strawmen, and attack personally instead of supporting their OWN message, whatever that may be.

I take exception to your personal attack about cyanide pills and Paul Revere. If the moderators will allow, I have no problem whatsoever taking off the gloves and joining you in that sort of tactic, if you wish.
