  • Hopped on a conspiracy theory subreddit; it was all about the you-know-who's.

    I'm asking for conspiracy theorists to be a little more original.

    "Oooh, these guys secretly totally control the world". Yeah, okay, buddy.

    I want some real freaky, fringe shit.

    @Aader I thought hating the Fr*nch was the natural way of things :blob_hmm:

    @RepresentingWrath Maybe, maybe not. I'm still a novice wackjob :blob_no:

    My sister said that her teacher is about 1000 years old, and then I told her that normal people don't live that long. She asked me, "Then where are all of the 1000 year old people?", so I told her "They used to be everywhere, but then the government disappeared them all, because the government doesn't like people who know too much." She responded, "Oh, so that's where great grandma went."

    Arguably the greatest progressive rock song of all time by a band of maniacal virtuosos, led by the Frippster who has to be more reptilian than human.

    Imagine 1969, letting this funny looking screaming man record play, and this is the first thing you hear. It's brash, experimental, dissonant, but undeniably groovy.

    There was simply nothing quite like it, and Robert Fripp and his revolving door of musical wackos would go on to mold the prog rock genre that we all love and hate. It can't be overstated how monumental this record was for rock music.

    I know some mfers who would fold over this (I'm mfers)

    (I would betray my country if an attractive lady told me to)
    Who are more nitpicky? History nerds or martial arts nerds?

    The unholy combination of the two, HEMA nerds.

    Oh god no

    This kickass medieval battle scene isn't historically accurate because the two knights should've been fighting in the most boring and goofiest way possible ?

    I think a lot of MMA nerds won't want you to get bored. Even if they might corect this or that they still want to see a spectacle, not how one guy lies on top of another for three whole rounds and win by points. Even though winning by points is still a win, they want action. But I am biased when it comes to martial arts, so I can be wrong.

    Disclaimer: I and the vast majority of Indonesians do not have anything against Estonia, and most of us probably don't even know the country exists.

    Still, it's generally sage advice to steer clear of racial and national arguments with English-speaking Southeast Asians on the internet, as they are very likely well-read on racist literature.

    I want to watch Look Back again :blob_pat_sad:

    but like, in theaters. I don't want to watch it on a small screen. I want to hear the sniffles from the audience as they experience peak and get the sudden urge to learn to draw.

    I actually watched the movie 3 times in theaters and folks were bawling every time.

    Swans are a band as interesting as they are imposing (I swear I don't get my musical opinions from Anthony Fantano)

    Each song has its own freaky ecosystem, like the Galapagos Islands. Each instrument fills its niche and does little else outside of that. That typically means the guitars playing a chord 150 times while Michael Gira moans.

    One of the sickest rap track I've ever heard, coming from Thomas Jefferson himself.

    Musical meter is an element that is seldom ever touched in the genre because rap just thrives in 4/4. As a result, it's fascinating to see the folks over at clipping try a song that makes time signature changes the point.

    Masterful storytelling too.
    I will always believe modern settings are better than medieval settings because in a medieval setting, you can't have a scene where the cold-blooded antagonist unceremoniously shoots some guy in the head with a gun as a show of wickedness. Even though that's the best part of any self-respecting story.

    Yoshimasa Terui often foregoes the twinkly alt guitar work of his mathy J-rock contemporaries. Kyoumen no Nami is the perfect example of that, focusing much more on complex interlocking keys and strings. Undercutting that rhythmic tension is YURiKA's serene vocals. All this makes for one of the most striking pieces in the genre.

    The section after 1:40 especially is a monstrous groove that hurts just right. Terui's a master of those wonky rhythms.
    I'm translating a scientific document right now with ChatGPT open to compare translations afterwards, and my writing is almost identical to the AI's.

    I produce AI slop naturally... :blob_pat_sad:

    This song is a through-composed masterpiece. It perfectly encapsulate what I feel defined the Y2K era of the band: alienation, psychosis, misanthropy, paranoia, Androids.

    I can't even really talk about it because it speaks for itself.

    It really is Bohemian Rhapsody for people who can't order a coffee by themselves.
