MLVR, will you please just let this thread die?
- toe_knee0

- MLVR0
Oh, please exound my ignorance?
- MLVR0
Sure is big enough...

As I said though, I liked the videos... I'm just giving my point of view in this thread regarding what have been discussed and you come talking about being hyper-sensitive... It's obvious that what've occured haven't really affected you... 100.000+ dead...

I don't get your ignorance. But it's all good.

Bro, think what you want to. Honestly you have your opinion and I have mine. This world is big enough for that. Or is it?
- MLVR0
d5ive... you really don't get it do you?
- MLVR0
Well, trying to be controversal or provocative or whatever... I think it thoughtless considering what happend...

carnage, right?

Jeez people. Stop reading so much into. I think I made my point clear earlier. I really tired of this hyper-sensitive feedback. But oh well? It's useless sometimes around here.
Here's something to lighten the spirits.

I agree with MLVR, but I don't think it was thoughtless, I think he was trying to be controversal, which people might not agree with, but it is his right.

It's not what you say, it's how you say it.
'Awesome surfing etc' would've been more appropriate i reckon?
The way it's said is not provocative it's just thought less. Wondering if you use the same rhetorical when giving feedback, handling with clients co-workers etc!?
I know that build sometime uses the PBS for some stuff, perhaps those vids would suit better there?

Great stuff though and I'm sure d5ive didn't intend to offend anyone.

That was the most intelligent post I've read, Trans. Thanks.
I guess I've experienced a lot of stuff in my 31 yrs; watched a friend die in front me, pulled a man out of a plane intake, partake in a war, watch three of my beautiful children be born and almost died myself a few times. So maybe I look at things a little differently than others? But one thing I've learned is that I respect other people and their opinions, but I don't tolerate people that try and force their beliefs on me or others. Life is too short, as we all can see in this current tragedy.

Yeah d5ive, I posted that cuz there really isnt any connection. Same footage and same ocean, it just has American Express stamped on it. People have probably watched it on TV right after they posted a reply to this thread and thought nothing of it cuz they were eating dinner waiting for the football game to show up.
I have been out on very big days in San Diego especially after storms. 15 -20 foot swells at Seaside, Carlsbad. And I have wiped out on more than one occassion on those days. Being underwater for 20 seconds feels like 20 mins. Then finally making it to the surface only to be pushed down again. So if all else, the people who appreciate the video footage are the same people who can actually feel the pain the victims went thru and suffering of their friends and family.
So for the people who disagree with d5ive, just ignore the post and come monday, hit "Previous" and watch the footage in a different light.

good call, trans
It's tradgic, I agree. But I can never feel as much pain as someone who's got a direct connection to that region or is from that region.
Not to be diminished is the feeling that anyone gets when thier life is devistated by natural disasters. All those people in the carribbian, florida...those people can relate more than us inlanders or those in land locked regions.
