Remember, remember the fifth of November,
The gunpowder, treason and plot,
I know of no reason
Why gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.
WOW people sure get upset about the silliest things! Everyone is entitled to their opinions and views and equally entitled to disagree. There's no need to be nasty about anything people say. Come on folks, let's just live and let live and stop being so critical!

Ahaha, I watched V for Vendetta on Friday and hadn't even realized the 5th of November was coming. xD
So was Guy Fawkes celebrated for trying to blow up Parliment or failing to blow up Parliment?
V for Vendetta is my fav movie.
Awsomeness!
Ohs.
Well, in that case...
I must get the comics and the novel... -shifty eyes-..
I wish we could edit our comments in here.
Paw,
V for Vendetta is a comic. Ten issues were originally published before it was turned into a graphic novel. Written by Alan Moore and art done by David Lloyd. Originally published in the UK and published in the US by Vertigo/DC Comics.
Paw, nothing I said was directed at you or anyone else. It was just a general statement.
Well, aside to my comment stating that Parliment House was never actually blown up 
Oh, shut up you grammar Nazis. Nobody but you actually cares that the post isn't absolutely perfect.
That is, if that comment was partially or fully directed towards me. If not... carry on. -scuttles away, shyly-
...
I never said I was "learning my history from watching movies", and I never said there was any relation besides what has been said between V and Guy Fawkes. I was just saying all that because I like the movie and the little poem, which was in the movie.
Plus, the movie is based on a novel, not a comic book, I think.
Wow, bad and obvious grammar errors. x_o

Guy Fawkes didn't actually blow up Parliment. It's been reported that he was caught just as he was about to light the fuse. That's why it was only an ATTEMPT to blow it up.
looks up ...bah I still don't know if he actually managed it though I'll ask my history teacher.

I should have made myself more clear. They both tried to destroy the government for two totally seperate reasons.
V for Vendetta is NOT about Guy Fawkes. V does wear a Guy Fawkes mask and attempts to blow up the parliment building but really thats where the similarities end. V is set in the future and is the main characters attempt to destroy the government. The movie is based on a COMIC book series people. This is killing me.
Guy Fawkes tried to blow up the houses of parliment in attempt to destroy King James I. Guy Fawkes was a member of an English Catholic group who were trying to end the Protestant aristocracy.
Please stop trying to learn your history by watching movies.
He attempted to blow up the Parliament. o.o Wow. Did he do it?
OH. And. There should be a Guy Fawkes mask.. :X like.. from V for Vendetta. -run away-
The irony of it all. We just watched V for Vendetta a few days ago, unaware that november 5th was coming up.
I had that poem stuck in my head yesterday.
It reminded me of a book called the people of sparks, sequel to the city of ember.
Remember, remember,
the city, remember.
And thats all I remember. 
V FOR VENDETTA -die-
BeBelynn the movie V for Vendetta was based on Guy Fawkes, which is why they used some of the poem.
Very happy Subeta has remembered the day!
Hurray! I've been reciting that all day!
That's it.
I'm done working! I'm just going to haunt Subeta.
Flipper, you can just send it to me instead of messing up your nails. =D
I'm too busy focusing on the few typos there to take note of the poem. XD; Aha, thanks for the gift guys! C:
Come on peeps, we get loads of items for free, let enjoy what we have and not complain about what we don't have 
i got mine for free so am quiet happy
i guess i'm going to have to quit school to get a free gift.

That sounds so much like the movie V for vendetta...
Nice gift ,thank you
Keith don't tmpt me 
I got one from the Free Gift already xD
"The Guy Fawkes plushie, mad at "letting loose" "it is" spot as the free gift, has made sure it's available in mass quantities in the token shop"?
Trying to translate that makes me giggle.
; I'm not sure why you see this as ironic? O_O
Anyway, I got one last year, it's in my vault somewhere.
That poems' catchy. Me likes.
Guy, guy, guy! Stick him up on high! Hang him on a lamp post and leave him there to die!
Did you guys just put it in the token shop since so many people were upset about not being on a the right time to get one? x D
I managed to get one before, I might buy one for my gallery though...
Good to hear the Free Gift one wasn't a mistake. I already put it in the Plushie Collection. Would be kind of hard to delete it! xD
Less Tokens? It's a good amount of tokens to spend on a plushie. The tokens aren't going for too much now, and it's quite affordable, really. I think it should stay at the same price.
Thank you. Much better than not having one at all.
creatureofhabit: That's not irony. ;o
Thanks for bringing it back It's really appreciated.
Seriously. It's really cheap for a token shop item too. 100 tokens? I mean with the major deflation of them recently this is a nice balance. I still have like, eight of them from last year, but hey, I'm not complaining.
xD
cough it's 'losing', not 'loosing'.
well at least I can have one for my plushie collection now pats it
Wow, that's a lot of guys. OO'; -stares at the massive amount of plushies-
well that cool it should be less tokens tho
it's interesting to see what others find important enough to gripe about. If anyone wants to understand what I'm saying, take a look at my profile.
Puts a lot of things in perspective, eh?
Yay, thank you Subeta for celebrating this xD I remember it from last year too. =) Heh, fireworks are still going on here, I swear this lasts for a week plus, instead of the supposed day
Mm, I always feel sorry for Guy though - being tortured, hung, drawn and quartered. =/ And then people burning figures of him on bonfires. But then again I wouldn't want a Catholic England either, so..
