I assume that there are people on this forum who dig Jackass and have seen the second movie and are also familiar with what preceeded and what came after the TV series. So for those I have made a little trivia just for fun.

1. How many people called Brandon appear in Bam Margera's spin off series Viva La Bam ?

2. Danger Ehren, Johnny Knoxville, Party Boy and Wee man are all nicknames. From which Jackass member is the nickname Garbage Man ?

3. Which member of the Jackass cast used to be a Circus clown and actually has Ringlin Bros' Circus school degree?

4. Jackass was preceeded by the CKY homevideo's of Bam Margera and of the video releases of a Skateboarding magazine run by Jackass director Jeff Tremaine, what was the name of that skateboarding magazine?

5. Jackass spawned three spin off series. Viva La Bam and Wildboyz. What is the name of the third spin off, presented by Ryan Dunn?

6. Don Vito is Bam Magera's uncle but what is his real name?

7. Almost all of the jackass cast are either professional skateboarders or snow boarders, but which member of the cast used to be a a professional truckdriver?

8. Which cast member of Jackass had the name of the show staple gunned to his butt?

9. And which cast member of jackass has Your name tatood on his butt?

10. What is Johnny Knoxville's real name?

Okay, have fun figuring it all out.

I ain't seen Jackass 1, 2 or TV, but I saw a takeoff skit that Mad TV did with Oprah running headfirst into a porta potty and it sliding down a hill into a tree and also a bunch of jackasses and a fake Kenny Rogers (not Pine Tar boy, but the crooner) getting drunk and having a milk drinking contest, then beating the crap out of each other with baseball bats. I know this is somewhat off topic, but I do like to share.

Blazer,

In the world there is fun, there is seriousness, there are people doing stupid things, there are people doing unforgivable things, there are people doing nice things, there are people doing completely unselfish things, there are people making a contribution to the general welfare of the population at large if not the world as a whole.

You know all that, and you still think your life is incomplete if you don't get to watch Jackass?

In the words of the unforgettable what's-his-name: grow up.

Well Adriaan. I'd rather see Johnny Knoxville doing something really stupid just to amuse people than to see world leaders doing something really stupid and igniting wars with it.

To quote another unforgettable man, Frank Zappa: Whatever you can think of to have a good time, let's get on with it as long as it doesn't cause a murder.

Jackass is definitely over the line, the cartoon definitely is not. Why?

The intellectual excercise to go beyond the accepted is how mankind manages to make any progress. Not wanting to go there takes you into creationism territory.

The physical excercise to go beyond the accepted is how science manages to make any progress. Not wanting to go there - etc. etc.

Stupidity is not when someone doesn't know what's good for them - it's when they don't know what's bad for them.

Adriaan,

Generally, I find your input insightful. However, as a Christian, I must take acceptance to the implication that creationism, the basis of Christianity, is intellectually stunted. Many contemporary, ground-breaking scientists are guided by one faith or another and some fall into the ?creationist? category.

Expression of thought is a freedom that is too easily taken for granted and should be exercised by all and I respectfully don?t intend to stifle yours; I just ask that potentially inflammatory comments not be posted in this forum.

Mike

Amen Mike!

I personally think the show is named wrong, remove Jack and insert Dumb.

Mike, I'm pretty sure you meant to say take exception, but if you really feel acceptance, then I congratulate you on your own freedom of thought (please understand that I mean that in a gentle, humorous way).

I know I should just let this drop, but since you got at least one amen so far, and I won't be surprised if there are more, I kind of feel like offering a little support to Adriaan here.

Creationism is faith, not science, and to confuse the two - or worse yet, actually teach it as science - is something that I personally find inflammatory, and am absolutely convinced is intellectually stunting.

Pretty much by definition, faith is something not even intended to be supported by the scientific method. The fact that some, probably many, respected scientists also happen to have some religious beliefs doesn't change that. People certainly have the right, and will undoubtedly continue, to believe in just about anything they choose, even in ways that are inconsistent. This doesn't necessarily make them stupid, or wrong; nor does it prove them right.

Perhaps Adriaan didn't really need to make that particular point here, but then again as far as I'm concerned this entire thread isn't very well suited to this forum, and I happen to appreciate his effort to cut it short.

Though it was nice to see that cartoon again...

I must admit, I've never heard it said that creationism is the basis of Christianity. I have always understood that LOVE is the basis of Christianity.

Peace

Jesus is the basis of Christianity, the Alpha and the Omega.

Before this thread goes any further I thought I might point out that, given his prior comments, the moderator is likely to get a bit concerned.
