I totally understand, Matt. Did you notice my mini-rants in a couple of the OT threads about my dislike of asskissers of certain Broadway actors? I'm not planning on posting much on either of those threads anymore because of the obnoxious fan worship and teenyboppering that's going on while people act downright nasty to each other in a vain attempt to impress Mr. Rapp. It's embarrassing.

Omgarsh I hardly post on the main board anymore.

The OT board is more enjoyable. Even with all the excitement over Anthony Rapp (maybe BECAUSE of it), I find I check in with the OT board before I head over the main board, because there's a strange sense of stability startying my day off by seeing how things are shaking over here.

I think it's called maturity. It catches up with all of us at some point. Even the less-pleasant people on OT (not naming names) just seem like a more mature brand of unpleasant. Or maybe it's because they are the exception here, not the rule as it's becoming on the main board.

I couldn't agree more. Maybe the teenyboppers aren't aware of the OT board. Or they're afraid of it. Which I would be if I were their age

I think I speak for all of us when I say I'm glad the teenyboppers haven't infiltrated the OT board.

The folks here seem more mature, even if decidedly immature, because we discuss things that are relevant, instead of a rehash of "Is Idina performing this week?!?!!?!?!!!@1111"

Yeah, I think we're immature in an adult manner......?

i feel bad for the good people who have to moderate this site. we can all bitch about threads being deleted and the odd profanity filter, but the boards on this site have gotten insanely hard to control. I wonder if the West End Board is any tamer. maybe that's the new frontier once OT becomes Nickelodeon Central.

West End board is tamer because it gets like, 1 post a day. Okay, I'm exaggerating. Two posts.

There are some threads that deserve to be deleted. I guess the mods do the best they can do, but I know there's a few teenyboppers and brown-nosers who should feel really ashamed of themselves right about now.

And plus, it's the West End--how fierce can BRITISH people get?? I spent some time at the West End board once. It was so cold and sterile--I'm not kidding it was weird.

Please see my post on "Famous People You Want To Meet" on my encounter with Alan Cumming.

It might be the beer talking, but I'm feeling a little bad for how elitist and snobby we all can be. It's so cathartic though. A healthy release. I wouldn't have been too pleased when I was 15 if I had a bunch of people telling me how it was dumb to like Jekyll and Hyde. But at the same time, I realized that it was just a show I enjoyed. I never made any "head-up-my-ass" proclamations about it being the Best anything.

And it's one thing to enjoy a show, it's another thing to proclaim that your opinions are superior to someone else's and shove that one show in their face at nauseum.

It's the beer talking.

Fool.

But in our elitist defense, we're not snobs because people like, say, BKLYN or Wicked or something. We're snobs because we compose ourselves better than others, and we don't freak out and post immature and dorky comments that take up bandwidth. (At least, not on the main board.)

Exactly. I can write pages upon pages upon pages about Toxic Audio, but I only write a review if I see the show (which I've actually only done twice out of the 8 times I've seen it), and not about if I see the word Toxic in a magazine or try to disguise that I love the show. If I love it people will know, but I don't have to shove my opinions in other people's faces. It's not my fault it's the best show ever

But in keeping with diminishing our elitist attitude, let's have a little bit of a fangirl meltdown right now.

yeah it was the beer talking. it's times like this I really wish I was studying sociology. people are ridiculous, and I think the next couple decades are just going to skyrocket to levels of ridiculous never before imagined. I'm only 21 and I've been complaining about the "damn kids" for a good 5 years now. I think I just missed the P-Diddy, Carson Daly cutoff that separated healthy pop culture (up to the early mid-nineties) from the atrocity it's become. maybe it all stems from that. but the important issue is how it affects the theatre crowd. We can't let our love of theatre be ruined by the people it introduces us to. new beer.

#1945

TOXIC AUDIO IS THE BEST THING EVER

Posted: 11/2/04 at 1:16am

OMG OMG OMG LYKE TOXIC AUDIO IS SUPER AWSOME AND THEY'RE GREAT AND I LOVE THEM SO MUCH! OMG YAYNESS!

I've just realized something on a somewhat more serious note. I think my idea of liking Toxic Audio is somewhat different from a Wickedite because I love Toxic Audio because they are SOOOOOOOOOOO talented. They arrange all their material, their comedic timing is impecable, and the can create sounds that I can't believe are human, not to mention their harmonies are inhumanly tight! It's not the glitz and glamour of Wicked, it's the talent that really shines through, which sets it apart and that's why I like it.
end rant.

Oh hun, I'm a sociology minor and I've been ranting and raving about society for a while.

I'm about the same age as you and I already bitch about "those damn kids" (especially the 12-year old girls dressed in microminis and belly shirts). What really hit home is when I was at the BCD Museum a few weeks ago and the Spice Girls, Bryan Adams and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Pogs were part of the exhibit. I went, OH MY GOD MY CHILDHOOD TOYS ARE ARTIFACTS??

What hurts me is when nine year old girls wear shirts with cherries/sexual references on them. What are the mothers thinking?
