:::Am I to take it you've not heard of ''hyperbole''? While it can be difficult to "hear" humor in the written word one should note the context, which, in this case, was, "films are not reality" '''(another thing in the same "not in reality category")''', "Whoever wrote that piece deserves the death penalty." The over-the-top measure (death) to deal with the complaint (shaky writing), should have indicated that the complainant was having a bit of fun at the expense of the writer.

::::If you can successfully prove that it was hyperbole, then I'll take you at your word.  But then again, every time a lib always engages in such talk and gets caught, he's got to have a pass for it, an excuse, a loophole.  They always come up with something like "Oh, it was just a slip of the tounge, didn't mean it, or maybe it was poor hyperbole" or something similar to that.  [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 13:03, 30 July 2007 (EDT)
