I am not 'buddy'. I am a lady. Let's get that cleared up right away. And no, she was not in that hideous piece of crap.

I am the one who has the right to be insulted here, if anyone does. I was not 'assuming' you were a racist. Maybe you should look up the word 'congenial'. I was being wry, yes, but not making assumptions. A simple 'That's not how it is' would have easily sufficed.

The reason I would be offended, if I were Halle Berry, has nothing to do with racism. It is because the woman in question was both ugly and an utterly horrible, laughable, pathetic actress.

Now, you may 'bugger off'.
Excuse me - we don't tell people to bugger off here at Ironworks (both Wynne and Darkman). I don't really care who started this, but Wynne, you might be well advised to follow your own advice - a simple explanation to Darkman of the way he misunderstood your earlier post would have sufficed, rather than a lengthy rebuttal inviting more flames (inviting him to look up the word congeniality, etc). It's just...less "smart-assy", you know what I mean?

An honest mistake is an honest mistake.

In any case, who started it is irrelevant - what IS relevant is that it won't continue. Let's have some respect for Karze (and each other) and try not to take this thread off-topic - if you and Darkman want to continue your discussion in this vein, perhaps taking it to email or PM would be the best option for both of you (and the rest of us).
