I know this is following up Malcolm's tirade awful close, but I've sat here quietly for far too long.

Hullo, my name is George Sands Jr and I'm a werewolf.

If we haven't met in some way, through my fiancee or my daughter, if I haven't said hello to you before now, that's because you all come off as a bunch of self serving cunts.

The first chance you get, the moment anyone says anything you don't like you set off on attacking them. Attacking their opinions with your own, and getting right pissed because they wont change their opinions to suit yours. And when you still don't get your way you resort to mindless low brow insults.

If everyone had the same bloody opinion this place would get pretty fucking boring. What makes one person interesting is the fact that they have a different opinion than you do. You should respect the fact that someone is brave enough to have their own opinion and have their own principles and are willing to stand by them. Instead of calling names sit and get to know their opinion, open your mind to new things. The world is a lot bigger than the little space you occupy.

I realize that's just what I did. Name call. And it was a little low brow, but it seems intelligence has bypassed some of you, so that's all you understand. Low brow insults.

I was the second person to arrive to this death trap of an island. Does that make me the king of the mountain? Fuck no. Does it entitle me to my own opinion? Well no, but I do have my own because I am my own man. They are often not even the same as my darling Nina's, but that's why I love her. Because she's bold and loud and outspoken. Doesn't fucking care if you like her or not.

Now we could all come together, and find some common ground, rather than sit at each other's throats, and make this island livable again. Or you can sit in your fucking corners and mumble and moan and cry when someone's individual thought doesn't jive with yours.

I know, while you all had your heads up your arses, there are quite a few tragic things that happened. Instead of being at someone's throat, why don't you take a moment, and look and see if there's someone who needs a little sympathy. Maybe it isn't someone you've seen show any, but does that really matter? A broken heart is a broken heart. Pretend you don't know anything about them, and do the kind human thing to do. Offer a hand, a shoulder, or a kind word. Maybe a clean tissue wouldn't hurt. If wouldn't hurt you in some way, wrap a sad stranger up in a hug, and just tell them it'll be alright. Even if it wont. You don't know how far those kind words will go. How much those kind words will help rebuild someone's faith.

We all have to live here. Or we will all die here. You can contribute to one, or the other.

	Well I thought it was only right to let the wankers know that they were acting like wankers. I mean this isn't communist Russia, people shouldn't act like they want to draw and quarter someone for having the difference of opinion. They should love each other. Like we do.

	Well said. In fact, FYI? You calling the general public a bunch of wankers is actually genuinely attractive. Indeed they should, unless they're blood relatives? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh really? Should I shout it from a building or something? Well maybe not everyone should love each other that way. Or maybe love everyone like they're blood relatives? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Hm, no. Much too Tarzan. Plus you might end up eaten by one of those ..dragon things. And, regrettably you'd be rather far away.

That's the tricky part. I can guarantee there are plenty who love people who've come into their lives more than anyone they've ever been related to by blood. ~~Myself included~~

How about 'No man is an Island?' Does that count as a pun here?

	All excellent points, and I'm not to fond of heights. Doesn't hurt to offer though. There should be more. We shouldn't be sniping at each other. We should be embracing our differences because most of us are from places where that's not possible. Wonderfully put. Maybe I should make a sign and hang between Stark Tower and Isengard.
