And I quote, "This is an absolute fiasco," said Lynn Noonan, a clinical psychologist with an office in the neighborhood. "This is a bunch of narcissistic yuppies putting on an absolute stunt."

Care to discuss?

i thought that it was a huge success. there were tons of people at the event that were very lagitamite, and the crowd was very under control.

we are 'narcissistic yuppies'. i like it. because it couldn't be further from the truth.

well, maybe not the narcissistic aspect, because look at mr. j mo; she's right about that.

but yuppies? haha. come on.

ya i do all i gotta say is... weren't you young once?

it was 1 afternoon of your life, of some excessive noise, and closed off area, so thousands of people around north america, can enjoy a great, innovated event.

Suck it up, and pull the dildo out of your ass.

What ever happened to cool parents, and cool older folk?
Are they gone from the generation below me?

damn.

I assume that the bitch who's been writing negative articles about this for weeks went around trying to find the most damning quote she could from someone with no understanding of what's going on at all... narcissistic? Oh, you can make analyses at 50 yards by watching people ski? You must be the best psychologist ever! Probably some state college whore trying to sound important. People need to get over themselves.

Let's all give Ms. Noonan a round of applause.

"Most guys know that women dig guys with money. Would Donald Trump be fucking models if he wasn't rich? That question is rhetorical. Now I don't even believe this is wrong, I think it is just nature. But I also think women who are this way (and it is almost all of you) should be honest and admit that they are basically whores, and stop saying bad things about the so-called "actual whores" who are just trying to earn an honest living."

i love her insight into the situation of a skiing and snowboarding competition, in downtown san francisco.

"this is...an absolute stunt".

wow. i wonder if she diagnoses her patients in the same manner that she diagnosed this situation.

"this is...an absolute case of bi-polar disorder."

anyone else want to just dress up like T Hall and just get up in her face, and just play the stereotypical freeskier of what she imagines..

Whatever, everyone who said it might get out of hand and everyone will be crazy was proved wrong. There were a lot more older people and adults then there were actually 'hooligans' or any other type of stereotyped teenager. The only thing I saw was some lady trying to put her kid in the cable car with the pro's and the security guy telling her that she can't do that haha

Yeah..I heard some people bitching about the whole situation. These two ladies were talking about how one of the people they knew that was helping put on the event was blowing a shit-load of money for nothing.


:\


At least I thought it was all a cool idea..and so did so many of the people that showed up.
