Every year she always complains that she didn't get enough presents cuz she thinks her cousins got more than she did. I probably shouldn't say this, but I almost hate that kid. Meanwhile there's kids in Africa who have nothing and are starving to death.

Leahane member Joined: 11/27/07 Location: Florida Posts: 204	something i just read (for the 4th time) and i thought i would share it with you all...give me your opinion. Trent said "I just pitched it to HBO(ie year zero) two weeks ago in LA. It went great. Ideally,were trying to get them to do a 2yr limited series. I prefer that over film. We would have a second ARG tying into the second album and ties into the series. And they all happen together with a budget needed to pull that all off. There would be a tour down the road. The record completes the story,the ending that no one knows. I know what happens. I knew when I started it. And its not what people think" Posted in 2007. I'm not sure, I hope I quoted it correctly. so what do you think??? Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 12/29/2008 08:55AM by Leahane.

Maybe he wanted to see which of his "fans" are really his fans, the kind that will still be loyal to him and such even if they don't get a silly gift, and which of his "fans" just came here to get free stuff. I for one think NIN has given us alot and i don't care if I get a present or not, even though it would be nice if we did. Or maybe i'm just crazy...[/quote Right On....:

I have a pretty fucking big ego(like the T.R.) and if I put up something about checking back during the holidays for a small gift that I may have for fans on my website and saw posts saying crap like "wheres my gift" and "your an asshole" and "you ruined my christmas" I'd probably say "well fuck you then, you dont get anything." How about you quit acting like a bunch of spoiled 6 year olds, walk away from the computer for 5 minutes and go spend some time with your family durring the holidays, and IF something shows up at some point say "thank you." I mean come on have some respect. Would you say that crap to your kids or spouce or parents? No. I bet your the same jerks that won't shut-up durring Hurt.[/quote] (I agree show a little respect for an artist who truly cares enough about his fans to do things like that. And also if you are that person who gets drunk and screams during hurt, then go fucking kill yourself.

For any of the assholes out there that posted sht like... you ruined my x-mas and blah... FUCK YOU! Theres your gift.... Go fuck yourselves and then die!

Can't you see that the genius peeps. who run this site, posting info. for your asses, have lives?!!! hmmmmmm....no change in this thread yet by an Adm. or Mod. No word from T.R. or new pics. from Rob.NO GIFT. LOL! NOTHING WAS PROMISED!!! For shits sakes didn't anyone ever tell you nothing in this life is free?!? (ok, xcept for download The Slip) which, I didn't download, I purchased. Damn,don't ya think they have better things to do than sit in front of their screens all day long to entertain all you ungreatful fucks? Hey, JUDGES AND JURORS, HE DOESN'T OWE ME or YOU A DAMN THING!!! I have appreciated NIN for 20 years out of the 34 in my life. I have only seen one show~ this past Sept. at Red Rocks. BEST show I have EVER seen in my life. (keep in mimd, my frist concert was Chuck Mangioni @ Red Rocks~ i was 6) Point~ I have seen alot of shows and met alot of musicians, including Aerosmith. THEY ALL PALE~ there is no comparison.Period. C'mon people, quit judging, verbally battering, and smearing words towards these guys. They are humans and have lives. I have never met T.R. However, if I ever get the opportunity to, I will feel good about myself there in his presence. Knowing that I am a greatful lil' fucker. Thankful for all that he has musically given this one lil' person all these years. If you got the opportunity to meet him, would you be truely honest, thankful? Or, would you be a fucktard and say hey I trashed your ass on Your site,,,,,wheres MY gift? You know what you would honestly, truely get?~ a big fuck you! And, you would deserve it. Be sure for what you want cuz,,,,,you just might get it. And don't be pissed, it won't be what you EXPECTED~ because you EXPECTED something to begin with. Thats what YOU get!

I'm at the point, hoping there won't be no gift at all now, should it have been planned or only a trick to find out something on here. Either way, if it gets posted now its SHIT anyway. Fans like us won't be able to enjoy it anymore after all this fuckin' drama in here. I TRULY hope he scans through all these posts and decides not to gift-give period. TRENT, DON'T GIVE 'EM YOUR GIFT!!! P-L-E-A-S-E !!! Teach 'em a lesson first!

RodrigoD member Wave GOODBYE. Joined: 07/08/08 Posts: 1,694	Presents, gifts, freebies, bla-fricking-bla. There are two factions here. The ones that complain about the lack of a present at this point, and those who are pissed at those complaining about the lack of a present at this point. Can't we just go back to being NIN fans?

I never really liked that channel, but if the project goes thru then I will have to pay to get it. So far it seems that 2009 will be jam packed with good things to come from Trent. Dont forget more tour dates! I cant wait to see how he will top 2008!

CyDs84 member Joined: 11/26/08 Location: Georgia USA Posts: 348	You know when you're being cynical at least base it on something. It could be a real complaint that actually makes a point instead of just finding an excuse to nitpick a choice of words or criticizing just for the sake of it. Is there any relevant argument here to "may have a small gift... check back soon." that someone wants to argue? I bet whatever the main problem here is, it all originated from a misconstrued fact. Anyone obviously here with a problem should just relax. Goosfraba. Goosfraba.

uncle_asshole member Joined: 04/23/08 Posts: 377	uh-oh, here is another observation(opinion) from yours truly, let's see, there are exactly 4,830 different threads at nin world, and alot of different subject matters, from the serious to the downright absurd,yet, this has become such an entertaining, and thought provoking thread here, i check it off and on, to see what others are thinking and feeling, and, when the urge hits, i leave my 2cents,...i really do enjoy the "thought provoking" comments, i abhor the "demanding" ones, i laugh with the comical ones, and i sympathize with the "heart-wrenching" ones, i have received, from nin world, my gift(s), and they all vary, from people i have met, to t.r.'s KINDNESS to us, the fans---he did not hafta do anything for us, he has gone above and beyond, right??? and i look forward to whatever comes next in 2009, be it the tour, a new album, or trent himself showing up at my front door just to say thanks for supporting my music,... be appreciative for what you got, because others do not have it as fortunate as you,...
