OK, that's it. I'm starting an HDC geriatrics club where I can speak freely about spending an hour coding a program in Basic on my Commodore 64 so I could catalogue my VHS tapes. Who's with me?

Gee
 
That really sucks man. I remember being that young & the stickers were just starting with Tipper Gore leading the way on this crap. Personally I just buy at my local video store on some special items but its all good because I actually know the owner. Still this sucks & I'am glad I'am not in high school anymore because this is the type of crap that used to get me really worked up. Its like Walmart editting movies themselves. :mad:

I think some of you kids really should find some underground sources too, and forget the likes of Walmart and Blockbuster, who have a bad reputation for dealing with 'troublesome' films.

Consider the Japanese approach to censorship: violent, sadistic rape and body-tunnelling gore is applied with great relish and deemed just fine, but a glimpse of muff or cock will never, ever do.

Alky: are you saying the classification for Dead Alive is the same as the CD and the store has been inconsistent, or that the ratings are different and the store has been correct?

word?
 
like everyone else said, that fucking sucks. i'm 26 and that happened to me when i wanted to buy an NWA cd at 16, but you've got an advantage that i didn't have: the internet... just download it on itunes.

Actually I'm all for the banning or resricting of sales of gangsta rap and 'dark' metal.

Not because it might corrupt... but because it is $H!T

:D

Although I do like SlipKnot, so they are exonerated.

:cool:

I can remeber doing much the same on an Atari 800Xl and then the bloddy didn't even work. When i was a kid you could only rent movies, they didn't sell them in shops and "Parental Advisory" stickers hadn't been invented so I could buy any music I wanted, on LP of course, oh those were the days!:D Also a local shop sold individual cigarettes and matches to kids!

I'm only 14, yet managed to obtain two rocks of prime crack cocaine from a gentleman in my local Back Alley, and not only did he not ask for any I.D., he even told me to come back for some more at any time, or that he would even deliver if I wanted five rocks or over!

So clearly things are not that bad for us kids.

No but did he ask you to put something in your mouth?:D

PR3SSUR3 06-21-2006 09:06 AM

Yes he did - did I forget to mention that?

It tasted a bit like tuna.

Slip this in
 
Oh that brings back memories. Anyhow I'am with everyone here about using legal internet sources to get what you need. Censorship certainly does suck & it does seem to limit alot of folks rights to getting the music or movies they deserve. Iam not for corporate censorship either practiced by any number of sources.
