I use wikipedia myself, and so don’t really feel affected personally by the topic of the rant, but DAMN! that yak cock imagery was fucking hilarious. Nice rant.

If it helps, I thought it was excellent. One of the best OPs I’ve read in a long time.

Of course, I _am_ a yak cock enthusiast.

Well, with a tongue like yours that is no surprise.

Think about it. Being a male yak means never, ever getting oral.  
Poor yaks.

Yeah, looks like all they can do is yak-off.

That’s disgusting. I’m going to…  
YAAAAK!  
I feel so much better now.

Yak semen. It’s not just for breakfast anymore.  
Got yak semen?  
I can’t believe it’s not yak semen?  
Don’t call it yak semen. Call it Tibet’s own protein shake.  
(Like anyone would eat prairie oysters if they knew what they really were.)  
Yak semen. Now with chunks.

Ugggh…

Do depicitons of what you don’t like about a website have to be so freakin’ GROSS??

I was ready to make a rebuttal, but your OP was so digusting, I can’t even bear to even _look_ at this thread again.

(And seriously, you need to spend like 300 words on this? What, you’re shooting for a writer position on Howard Stern’s program or something??)

Chunks. Did I mention it has chunks?

Now, sometimes, as tasty as it is, yak semen will stick to the back of your throat. Not the most pleasant of feelings, let me tell you.  
That’s why you need…  
(Wait for it.)  
Warm goat urine.  
It has a tangy bite, a salty tartness that cuts through the thick creaminess of the yak semen. Just the thing for those high altitude treks.  
What’s that you say? Why not just drink yak urine? PUUUKE! What are you, some kind of freak?!

Only if you use allusions to ruminant ejaculate.

IMDB has ads? Other than the little [Amazon.com](http://Amazon.com) link in the corner, I don’t see any ads. Perhaps the OP needs a better browser.

As for the forums: you should know by now that the SDMB is the only forum.

This is my favorite kind of rant. I don’t give a rat’s ass about imdb, but the OP made me laugh enough to draw the attention of my colleague, who said I was having too much fun at work.

[QUOTE=Argent Towers]  
And now…you have to join IMDb “Pro” to view information about a movie in development. Why can’t they just make the information available like they USED TO?  
[/QUOTE]

You realize that IMDB Pro is only for stuff that has yet to start “active” pre-production right? You know, the stuff that is basically just an idea in Johnny Screenwriter or Jimmy Producer’s head.

It makes perfect sense to me because otherwise you have listings for stuff like Freddy vs Jason. But wait you’ll say, Freddy vs Jason is a real movie. And you’d be right, Freddy vs Jason was released in 2003. So why it needed an IMDB listing in 1997 (when the movie was little more than the fever dream of a New Line executive) is beyond me.

I use IMDB all the time, and I never saw anything of what you are complaining about.

So I think I’ll continue to use it in the same manner and ignore your rant. You must inhabit a different universe.

The key is to aviod IMDB discussion on any movie remotely interesting to imbeciles- if you stick to highbrow fare, there’s usually not a lot of “is he gay” comments for Dersu Uzala for example. Though maybe there should be. 🙂

I’m assuming this is either a joke, or you only read the forums for incredibly obscure independent movies.

One of the reasons the IMDb Pro thing wolfs down so many thick inches of yak dong is that I used to enjoy reading the discussion forum for the film adaptation of _I Am Charlotte Simmons_ by Tom Wolfe, a film that is currently in the very early stages of production but still had an active message board of people who had read the book talking about it. Now, poof, gone.
