I figured this would be a good way to help out and make somewhat of a difference, so like I stated before if you disagree with the point of the meet or just generally don't care then you aren't forced to come, not directed at you slevin.

i didn't take it personally, and there's nothing wrong about what you're doing. i also didn't direct my post at you as well. spreading awareness is a nice contribution to the cause. i can just understand what "itwillboost" is saying because if you asked half the people that are obsessing about it right now, they won't remember about it a month from now.

Replace "topic" with "band" and it's the same thing. Either way, it all contributes to greater awareness whether or not the people talking about it really care.

you clearly didn't read the second part of my response so i enlarged it for you to read this time around. if you need me to add pop-up pictures to catch your attention i can. (yes, that was a joke. me so funny) part a is what we're talking about. part b is what you're talking about. if boost was acting like someone would in part b, then yes your metaphor would fit correctly. your metaphor was obvious, as there was no need to explain it in detail. the fact you felt the need to is beyond me.
edit: i swapped a and b by accident. view i'm taking is part b. you're analogy isn't similar to my part b, therefore analogy cannot apply.
