RANTING/VENTING MEGATHREAD 3.0

This thread is dead. Its original purpose has been lost.

On top of that, there are some seriously insufferable people on this site these days. It was irritating but still tolerable when it was just the occasional apologist, but now it's Ultrapologist up there and the aggressive political dongs. 

Does anyone here frequent the Site-which-shall-not-be-named that popped up when this one started charging? How's the atmosphere over there? I need somewhere else to go.

Yeah I've tried really hard to stop reading and posting here so much.  It was having a big effect on my mood generally.  The difference in atmosphere over there is like night and day.  Really friendly, welcoming, supportive etc.  No trolling or ratty comments, no endless bragging, no my job is better than your job, no multi quote essays.

Is it reasonably active? Or are there long stretches where nothing is getting bumped? As far as conversation-type threads, that is. I'm pretty set as far as lesson materials go.

last i checked it wasnt too active (maybe a year ago?) but yeah it would be cool if it was more active these days

Is it reasonably active?

It really isn't.

Well that's a shame.

It really isn't.

Yeah, I periodically pop over to that place for a gander at some lessons and unless you're looking to join the scrolling side bar convo those forums don't seem to get any action.  And that side bar theme seems to be "If you're bored write everything and anything you're thinking."  And pretty sure, if the forums did get sufficient action we would see the next evolution of Korea's angriest man Steelrails/DeMartino/…? start to inhabit the site. 

Uhhhh. I dunno about E-Mart's head office prohibiting them from making cheese pizzas.

Looks like they make cheese pizzas at both E-Mart and E-Mart Traders. So... I mean, I feel like that's not really the case. Like, they're literally on the menu. They're called the Cheese Deluxe Pizza.

Yeah, definitely......... ................... ...............

My favourite is Papa Johns but its very expensive

Pizza Nara Chicken Gongju isnt bad and its good value. They had a Mexican pizza that had corn chips, salsa and macaroni and cheese on it. Sounds terrible. Tasted wonderful. But it was a limited time only type pizza.

Best pizza in Korea? It was at Megabox Isu. They have a special floor called ArtNine and they had an Italian place there. Their margherita was amazing.

Now? Brera. And Sanbon has a Monster Pizza now which is stupendous.

I think he means just delivery type chain places that you see everywhere.

I've had a lot of more Italian style pizzas in sit down restaurants, but i doubt i could remember the name of even half the places.

CO2: Since you brought this up in regards to semantics and opinions just the other day...

Correct way of conversing.

  I don't like Burger King.

  Why not?

  Hmmm, just don't like it. Not great food.

  Alright.

Incorrect way of conversing.


  Apocalypse Now is the worst movie ever made.

  What? Why?

  It's just a total piece of shit.

  Yeah, but why? You have to list a few reasons why it's the worst.

3rd Party Eavesdropper   ACKSHUALLY, EVERYONE IS ENTITLED TO THEIR OPINION.

  Get bent.

My pet peeve is when someone says something that is their favourite is the best.  I mean, if that pizza is really the best in Korea let's hear what factors come into to play in regards to it having been ranked #1 in all of Korea. 

To paraphrase: Yeah, but why? You have to list a few reasons why it's the BEST.

I know what you think of people who make that claim hahaha

I'm not a fan of Monster Pizza. I do love me some Redcap, though. It's arguably one of the best Korean franchise pizzas.

I also secretly love Pizza School. But it's not good. And it's barely pizza.

I openly love Pizza School.  While I do acknowledge it is on the low end of pizza, I can hack it.  And, for the the price, it is quite agreeable.

Ok, now that I can dig.  And I have spied a Monster Pizza in Sanbon, and since you're not given to hyperbole I am going to have to try it and see what this stupendous pizza is all about. 

I'm not crazy about the toppings on a Maddox slice (they're fine) but I love the crust.  Crispy, and edging towards slightly burnt with some crust bubbles.  Good stuff.  Although, it's so busy most times I'm in Itaewon I can usually only bother to go when I'm on one of those deskwarming lunch breaks.
