Because you're arguing. You say its an "opinion", but can't admit that you worded it wrong. The sky isn't red even though you say it is.

Okay, how many people who liked the band in the 80s do you know of? I'm one of them by the way and I still like what Bon Jovi do. It isn't as good, for me, as the stuff from 88-95 but the good still outweighs the bad.

I've never counted, about 20. Most of my friends and family liked the 80s Bon Jovi, most don't like what they're doing now.

I "used the word irony wrong". Haha you really are the gift that keeps giving. Incidentally, I've used your definition and your example to prove you wrong. Give it up.

Learn to read, dear Ron Jeremy. My definition? I've never given you my definition. I've quoted Wikipedia and I've given you an example how none of what you think is ironic actually isn't. My definition of irony, as of right now, could be summed in a single word: RonJovi.
You keep making me repeat myself, but if that's what it takes, then: Irony is a situation in which there is an
incongruity between the literal and the implied meaning.
And I'll repeat it again, nothing like it happened here. YOU say it did, because YOU thought something happened, when it didn't. YOU can think it's ironic all you want, but YOU would be wrong.

You said "I'm telling you to behave". You have no authority to tell anyone to behave.

Of course I do. I can tell anyone pretty much anything I want, as long as I'm not breaking the law. I also make sure that I don't tell people what to like or dislike, because I find that extremely irritating and stupid.

Re the name calling - people in glass houses and all that.

I never once called you anything. Read the posts back. I'm very careful with things like that, because it's not allowed here and threads can be locked because of it. YOU on the other hand did it a bunch of times and if I wanted to, I could report you to the mods. But I haven't, but it seems to be the wrong move, as you keep continuing. Maybe I should report you?

And if you think I'm riled, you really don't know me Alanis. I love people like you who leap before they look. And you have made an average of about 2 posts for every single day for the last 10 years. Seems like a lot of your life is on this board.

Oh, look, another assumption and attempt at irritating me with the names. And yes, you are "riled", otherwise you wouldn't need to resort to name-calling and juvenile acts like calling me "Alanis". You've even gone to the lengths of digging up my profile, possibly even my old posts. So yes, you are "riled" up, one could even say "obsessed".
No, my life is not on this board. In fact, my life is so filled with other, more important stuff, that I can not spend enough time on the web discussing and doing the things I like, even though I'd want to.
And even though I don't need to tell you a thing, I will let you know how I gathered those posts.
I first came to DryCounty in 1995. Been here ever since, more or less. I was very active on the bonjovi.com chat and even had a web site dedicated to all the regular chatters there. After Bonjovi.com chat and messageboard closed I started frequenting this place, as BSWJBJ was just utter crap.
We used to have long discussions about everything in the early 2000's, with dozens of posts in a day. After that I've had many years that I hardly posted here, mainly because of people like you that won't allow people to say and think what they want and tell them to leave the board. Got tired of the single-mindedness of the new-Bon-Jovi-lovers and decided that I didn't need assholes like that even on a messageboard. And mostly, because I think Bon Jovi's music since 1998 has been mostly crap.
Then, when the old posters started coming back, I came back. But I check the board when I have the time, which isn't all that much now, about once a day. Most of the time it's just the same old I-love-Bon-Jovi-so-much -crap that I don't bother to read nor post. But when people like you bring up the "you're not a real fan", I'll respond, if for nothing else but to make you think about your "opinons".
So, no, you're nothing new, you don't have an effect on how I think, you're nothing special. I've seen the likes of you come and go so many times that I do'nt even remember all of their names anymore. Every once in a while one of you creeps comes along, tells others what to think and how to act, claim you didn't do it and then fade away.
So, keep at it. Keep up the name-calling, denying your posts, dismissing direct quotes and believing that you know best. Keep telling people that they shouldn't post here and how you know what they should be listening. Keep telling everyone how you're a "big boy". I'm sure that makes you happy.
