Ok so it used to p*ss me off when people would fill up threads going on about The p*ssing Wire. But now I want to comment on it but don't want to feel like a hypocrite. Hence this thread, just for me to talk about The Wire.

So cause it's a thread for me to talk about The Wire I won't be using spoiler tags but if anyone else would like to converse about stuff further than where I am I'd really appreciate it if you spoiler'd it

I'm up to episode 6 of season 2, so everything up to that can be out of spoiler things

What I like about it is that I always want to watch it, not cause it always ends on a cliffhanger like 24 so it feels like you have to keep watching to see how they get out of a situation but just cause it's so well written and the characters are so believable I love seeing into their world.

I watched the episode where D gets strangled at the end last night and it didn't emotionally resonate with me, but then I remembered it on the bus an hour ago and nearly cried. Why D? He just wanted to go straight and be left alone, they could have let him be

Yeah, D was really born into a world he shouldn't have been. He was good at the business side of things, but the gangsta game just wasn't in him, not like the rest of his family. I think his death was the first one which really made me feel something too. Wallace being killed was cold, but he had the chance to get out, but he came back. Being a pawn was all Wallace was ever going to be, he would have been killed sooner or later. D'Angelo, you really felt for because if he wasn't a Barksdale, he could have been just a normal guy with a normal life

Also, I gave my mate the full boxset a few weeks ago, but I didn't know whether he'd like it or not. I even had to tell him that he might not like it for the first few episodes, but to try and stick with it

He finished the first season last week and thinks its brilliant. He even said that he didn't mind the first few episodes, and thought they were pretty interesting.

I've never had more respect for the man. Even after he said on saturday night "I'm off for a penis" instead of "I'm off for a p*ss", I still have respect for him

Possibly, we never moan about all the f*cking animal chat that goes on here. Unless its being ate, I don't want to know.

Thats just reminded me of my now deceased cat.


 
 
Rayanne Graff: His name is George. Also, he started Spam.
Rayanne Graff: i spoke to him a couple of times and that was in October of 2009.
the doc: Wow, a proper old head
Rayanne Graff: Yeah, he was the 15th person to join.
satansrubberduck: I didn't directly start Spam. Also the proof of that long since disappeared.
Rayanne Graff: No, it didn't; the Spam spam spam you made in 2002 is on page 105 of the Spam board.
satansrubberduck: Oh. I looked for it years ago and couldn't find it. The colour tags are (thankfully) broken.
satansrubberduck: Odd to think it's been over a decade since I first got involved with 'Zine.
Claire: It's not odd to me since I've just had the exact same conversation with you...
I Cunt Spell: YOU'RE ALL OLD
I Cunt Spell: SO VERY VERY OLD
Captain Stupendo: SRD made an appearence holy moly haven't seen him on here for years
Maeby: JIM!
the doc: Wow, event Starws isn't here tonight
the doc: Straws ^
the doc: *whistles*
the doc: Ah well, off I go as well then
Rayanne Graff: Sorry, Stu; i was busy tidying things. xx
