Eh, just went off the wikipedia article:
The New York Post is the 13th-oldest newspaper published in the United States and the oldest to have been published continually as a daily.[3] Since 1976, it has been owned by Australian-born billionaire Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation and is one of the 10 largest newspapers in the United States.[4] Its editorial offices are located at 1211 Avenue of the Americas, in Manhattan. Plus, it helps to be respectful while criticizing someone (even though the Post is disreputable)... makes it harder for them to respond by being petty. |

![]() Kevin Says: Your comment is awaiting moderation. April 17th, 2008 at 5:56 pm @Jack You call that violent? You must live in a box because that’s just how we decide to defend ourselves against wrong opinions based on media based information. And if you’re lookin at Dusty Somers comment… I am more than sure it’s something called “sarcasm” cuz I really doubt he will go out and burn every book this guy will ever make. You’re right, maybe we should just drop out the things we like to do like maybe extracurricular activities? In what values do you look at this as something completely worthless? What point makes a DANCE worthless? Yeah from what you’re saying, you think we should drop out everything that has apparently no usefulness in society. Why not drop all dances, music, life styles, and more…? You have completely failed at the meaning of life, and I’m not even joking. You think everything in life is just to contribute to society? Come back when you get what an artform and dance is suppose to serve as… There are many that take this as a hobby or activity they just like to do, and then there are others that embrace it to its full potential just like how an artist would with painting. When you look at those in NY just dancing there for money… can you blame them for using a talent to try to survive? Hopefully you have noticed that not everyone has the chance to go far and make it big, and those guys are just trying to make a living with what they got. There are people who bboy for fun, there are those who bboy for money and to survive, and there are those that bboy as lifestyle. You wanna tell me that they are worthless? YOU are the worthless one if you can not see this is what they enjoy and love to do. They got a job like no other and that’s what are doing right now. |

Josh Says: Your comment is awaiting moderation. April 18th, 2008 at 2:59 pm @ Kyle: It is one thing to do your job as a critic and give your view of a movie as is the basis of your job. It is completely something in and of itself to take a step further to insult so any people using such a limited knowledge. And this is not only limited to your response to Planet B-boy this also pertains to other film reviews such as the one you posted for Juno. Reviewing a film for its style, plot, and character development (or lack thereof) is something to be expected. But to take the step further to the point of insulting individual cultures/subcultures such as Bboys and hipsters degrades yourself by giving a reader the thought of a biased critic. Think about it. How good of a review can a person expect when the critic already thinks that bboys are just subway peformers “not worth 5 minutes” of your precious time and have such a negative view of them off the back. And I personally take offense to the semi invisible comment as well as the semiliteret comment because I bboy and i am only 16 yet i have a better venacular than half of your adult readers. Also group generalizing such as calling bboys a “bunch of Korean and Japanese gangsta group dancers” is very insulting as well. There are many different cultures that bboy. I’m from Hawaii, a native Hawaiian mixed with many other nationalities yet I am neither Japanese or Korean. Please before your next review make sure you don’t already have a biased opinion before watching because if you do, just don’t watch at all. P.S. We speak normal English none of that “yo dawg” stuff. And as for you jack: You say that we respond violently to the negative critiques but YOU do not KNOW any of us. We joke around on the forums and the so called violent remarks is our way of expressing anger. You have to admit that even you show your anger in violentcomments that can be worse than ours. And as for the whole worthless thing goes, why are you spending the time and effort to look at our posts to judge when you are leading such a productive life. I do have a question tho, do you stutter? (if you hadn’t caught it i was being sarcastic and its a joke) |

Kyle you are just like half-a-million youtube members. All you do is flame behind the safety of your computer. Next time try critiquing in front of next year’s BOTY. Of course, all the b-boys know that you won’t take that challenge, but hey it was worth a shot right?
P.S.: I never knew you could compare lightsabers with dancing. I guess the saying “oranges and apples” flew past your head. C’mon…your 50+? You can do better than that. |
