They should make an 80s style action film about Shool. The trailer could open with someone sitting at a computer, laughing and gloating over his trolling, then there's a knock at the door. The troll answers, and there's a humbly dressed man there, holding a rolled up magazine in his hand. The voiceover kicks in "Christ said the meek shall inherit the Earth. But he doesn't believe in Christ." Then the camera can pull back to show the guy is an early 80s Harrison Ford. Inside the rolled up magazine is a gun. He shoots the troll and the guy's head explodes. Then he throws the magazine down on the dead guy's body, and you see it was a copy of Watchtower, just as the voiceover comes back in and says "He is The Witness".

I'd watch it.

Urm... you do know I believe in Christ though right? Even though it ruins your voice over.

I thought you believed he was divine but not God? Or am I mixing that up?

Gods son. Not God himself.

Still believe in him, his teachings and that he's completely fundamental to my christian beliefs though.

Considering some of the shite Harrison Ford's been forced to repeat convincingly by Lucas and Spielberg throughout his career I'm sure he'd have no problem making sentences like that sound bad-ass.

Shool is starting to become one of my favourite forumites

Possibly more like a favourite teacher for me.

Ta appreciated. Now get back to scrubbing desks.

Hmph, my favourite teacher never made me scrub desks...

My favourite teacher had an amazing rack, always wore sheer silk shirts and she was always smuggling peanuts. Shool has a long way to go to be like my favourite teacher.

Maybe one of the reasons you're so angry in the film is that people keep misunderstanding your beliefs. And that can be reflected in the fact that the trailer voiceover is misleading.

Its like a documentary then, except you'd need to add mockery of beliefs in there too.

Hope it didn't come across as mocking your beliefs there, it was meant in tribute.

Nah. you're all good.

It was a bit nit picky of me to even mention it. But its one of the misconceptions I get the most and didnt want to perpetuate it in any way.

To be honest, Rawls' belief that Shool didn't believe in Christ completely threw me.

It was just quite difficult to fit "He believes in Christ. But not that Christ was God! So he feels comfortable not being meek when it comes to killing trolls!!!!"

I've been waiting for Paul to come in with a ref to Jehovah's Most Secret Witness. Quite disappointed he hasn't.

Sod it, I'll do it myself

When I was in primary school, we had one teacher who was a big woman. A lovely woman but she had really big boobs and we were at that age where we thought that sort of thing was funny. We used to call her 'The Milk Machine'. I thought it was hilarious despite not quite getting the joke.

Kids can be bastards.

Smuggling Peanuts v.
