What kind of food? :mad:

[The NPC]

Anything a human can consume I will be in. I can't help it, it's part of the contract.

Meh, food is overrated. I think I could manage pretty well without food.

So I'm back after switching internet providers and having complete hell trying to set up an internet connection.

Woo!

[Kyle]

That sounds like fun, welcome back. See page 770 for us questioning your wherabouts.

[EightMilesHigh]

At one point during a game, the coach called one of his 7-year-old hockey players aside and asked,

"Do you understand what cooperation is? What a team is?"

The little boy nodded in the affirmative.

Do you understand that what matters is not whether we win or lose, but how we play together as a team?"

The little boy nodded yes.

So," the coach continued, "I'm sure you know, when a penalty is called, you shouldn't argue, curse, attack the referee, or call him a pecker-head. Do you understand all that?"

Again the little boy nodded.

He continued, "And when I call you off the ice so that another boy gets a chance to play, it's not good sportsmanship to call your coach a dumb asshole', is it?"

Again the little boy nodded.

"Good," said the coach. "Now go over there and explain all that to your mother."

[Interstate]

That sounds like fun, welcome back. See page 770 for us questioning your wherabouts.

That banker.

:lol: Nice.

Yeah my internet was messed up and took me ages to try and setup the connection after switching ISP's.

During that time I've been moaning about how crap my job is etc.

What's everyone been up to?

I borrowed the DVD from my sister like a year ago, watched the trailer, and was like "....no."

[Zappa]

I ordered a Space Phone today. It's a really simple device, comprised of two conical "ear trumpets" and a helical coil connecting them. It makes super sweet sounds when you hit the coil, or talk into one of the cones, etc. It sounds like a synthesizer, but is entirely acoustic.

I also went to seem some young local bands tonight, and had a good time with dancing.

[br3ad_man]

haha. I pretty much had to watch it because one of my friends loves it, so I needed to watch it to say I'd watched it. Right from the start, I wondered how a movie about boxing starring Sylvester Stallone could be any good, but I figured Million Dollar Baby was awesome, so maybe I'd be pleasantly surprised.

Quite the opposite.

Hey Zappa, is your Alesis Micron good? Easy for a beginner? I almost bought a microKorg yesterday, but resisted the temptation to make an impulse buy. I'm considering either getting the Korg or an Alesis like yours. The Alesis looks cooler but the Korg looks easier to use.

I've never played a microKORG. I bought the Alesis based on internet reviews that seemedto favor it over the microKORG. I felt I needed full-sized keys, and some of the other features seemed appealing. The Micron is pretty user friendly, but I'm coming to the point where I really desire more knobs. It might be nicer for you to have less stuff on the board, I don't know. If you're not a tight budget, I might look into the Ion over the Micron.

I'm on a pretty tight budget, so I'm looking for something under 1k AU. I guess it will just come down to pricing. The microKorg might get annoying without full size keys, especially since I already play a keyboard a bit. On the other hand, it will be easier to get from overseas for a good price and the vocoder might be a good feature.

The Micron has a vocoder, but doesn't come with a mic. It's also insanely stupid and useless.

EDIT: Also...there's always real analog. I've been interested in the Roland-106, which you may be able to get secondhand for not much at all.

Check out www.vintagesynth.com for more information than you need.

The boy I'm dating got a microKorg for Christmas that I've played. He said it was pretty easy to figure out and tweak and all that, and it didnt seem hard to use. It also has a sweet microphone that alters your voice when you talk into it and play it. The whole instrument is pretty sweet and sound, probably totally worth the $400.

I've been looking into getting a synth myself, but too am torn between the Korg and the Alesis.

[Zappa]

I feel like I should spend more time with my Alesis really working with it, but I'm starting to get discouraged by its lack of real-time synthesis capabalities. Thinking of selling it and getting an Ion or something. Though I of course can't get all my money back for it, and I just got it.

I'd really like to get a real analog. I'll be scouting the pawn shops next week in the city. The other two synths that were reccomended to me were a Roland EG 101 and a Roland Juno 60. I'd probably like the Juno 60 a bit more because I'm looking for one where I can make a lot of wierd noise with. I'll start checking out garage sales too.

[Electrocution]

I kind of want a synth to mess around with, but the only piano experience I have was lessons when I was 6, and I don't know if I want to drop a couple hundred for something I might end up hating.

ITP: I bitch about little kids at the bowling alley.

Well last night I went to the bowling alley with a couple of friends. In the next 3 lanes there were about 20 - 25 kids who's ages ranged from 2 - 6. It was some kid's birthday party. We didn't mind them at first, as they did nothing to bother us. Well about 3 of them walk over into our lane just as I'm about to bowl and roll 3 balls down our alley! I bowled my ball fast enough to where none of their balls messed up my score. This happened about 5 times until some big black guy, whom I think worked at the bowling alley, came over and had a conversation with us that went something like this:

Black Guy: I don't wanna see 2 balls go down that alley again!
Me: It's not us, it's the little kids next to us.
BG: I don't care! Don't let it happen again our your asses are out of here!
Me: Ok, fine then.

After about 10 minutes, a little kid, big smile on her face with ball in hand walks over to our alley swings her arm back as if she's about to roll the ball and I let out the most epic "NOOOOOOOO!!" ever. She just stared at me, then a man, who I think was her father, came over and moved her away. That was the last time it ever happened.

Why don't parents beat their kids anymore for acting up and not doing what they're supposed to be doing?

One time I used a bowling ball that was too small for my hand and it flew through the air instead of rolling down the aisle. I was scared that it would hit someone for a while, but then when it didn't, this european guy came over and yelled at me. It was funny.

[Happymeal]

On my first game of bowling I nailed 2 strikes in a row. I haven't had one since.

[mentalstephanie]

I am probably the worst bowler known to humanity. :(
And those kids sound so cute, especially the little girl (but probably really annoying at the time).

[The Great Decay]

I haven't been bowling in the longest time.

Zappa makes the best avatars. I don't know you, but yours are pretty much definitely not as good.

[Zappa]

Sorry, I'm completely going Off Topic in an Off Topic Thread (haha..), but Zappa: Why do you use such a big avatar? It's a bit unfair, don't you think?

I use really big avatars because I can, and because they make the images I want to use much more comprehensible. Most of my avatars are a way of displaying what I've been listneing to and enjoying lately, in hopes that maybe another member will be exposed to it through me. It's hard to do that when avatars are too small for the album titles to be seen. This particular avatar has no title on it, so I guess it's an except.

It's Doc at the Radar Station by Captain Beefheart, which is an awesome album.

He's attacking your preference for quasi-art films and the like, I'm guessing.

I think the first 2 Rocky films are quite good. Rocky IV, now THAT is a crappy movie.

[Tangy zizzle]

If I was given a big avatar (which everyone knows I deserve) i would be such a good boy.

Seriously.

[EightMilesHigh]

Hah, they're making a sixth Rocky. Couldn't pay me to see that!

[YDload]

you can pay me to watch just about any movie. i like money and will gladly receive some in exchange for something as effortless as staring at a screen for a couple hours :)

[EightMilesHigh]

No Rain by Blind Melon is such a nice song.

Yeah probably.

Anyone else other than me or br3ad see what just happened?

[Jacaranda]

Chad invades Alt/Indie.

:S

[Liberi Fatali]

Yeah probably.

Anyone else other than me or br3ad see what just happened? A little nerdy hacker by the name of Chad had renamed all the thread names to lol. I've changed them back to more ordinary thread names. If i've renamed any of them incorrectly, just say.

Oh and Chris Rea - On the Beach

[Tangy zizzle]

They're back to "lol".

Try looking up like, 3 posts.

Oh, I thought all the threads here were gone forever. Then I realized that it wouldn't have been that big of a deal anyway, but I guess everything's ok again :)

[Wanker]

That was some wacky stuff that happened yesterday.

[theredwonder]

Man, yesterday. Maaaaan.

[asymm]

I never saw any chaos. Only discussion about it... wish I didn't miss it.

Hmm... I'm done working for my break. So, I have a nice week to get myself together and relax. But now I'm a little concerned since I'm having problems with my girlfriend that I'll just sit around overanalyzing it, making things worse.

[Electrocution]

I'm in creative writing avoiding work. I left some creepy messages on my classmates' facebooks.

[Reywas]

How do you guys listen to indie music?

[Electrocution]

Vinyl is the only acceptable medium.

[moderaterock222]

all i can say is:

lol

[Wanker]

After watching Backdraft today, I noticed that the score for the movie is the same as the music in the TV show "Iron Chef."

It's a good score though.

[The NPC]

I fixed the threads in here after they were screwed with by Chad. I'm going to bitch to MX about this kind of crap continuing on the site.

Anyway for all you morons that thought I did it, you can all kiss my ***. If I'm in a better mood in a couple of hours maybe I won't ban you smart asses*.

Hee heee.

[schwypees]

[The NPC]

My hate runs deep.

[Zappa]

This girl was talking about her boyfriend with the last name Wolf and I was all "does he give you Wolf eyes? Did you have kids and make a Wolf parade? Are you the Wolfmother?"

so yeah indie points

...

[The NPC]

...

I'm thinking the same.

I think he's just sad that REM in truth is a shame musically speaking. An over hyped and over wanked over band is what REM is.

I still don't know of the band or whatever he's talking about.

[The NPC]

R.E.M. is one of the most important bands of the 1980's and your Yellow Swans bullshit can take a walk ok

Yellow Swans?

What are you going on about?

[EightMilesHigh]

Today was one of the best days I've had in a long time.

[The NPC]

Those bands you like. You know, Merzbow.

No, I don't know.

[The NPC]

hey did I see you front row at a Ruins concert

Probably not, I was listening to REM and they put me to sleep while I was driving. It wasn't pretty.

So I'm getting the Surgeon General to slap a warning on their CDs and such stating that operating heavy machinery, driving, or doing anything constructive while listening to them is impossible.

[The NPC]

You can't operate heavy machinery while listening to Wolf Eyes because they sound exactly alike and you'll get confused.

If I only knew who Wolf Eyes were maybe this would mean something to me or insult me in some way.

Blah, same here with my boyfriend. I also overanalyze everything way too much, and it doesn't help that I don't see him during the week. I've also been really strange feeling/acting the past few weeks because of a weird reaction to some antibiotics I was on, so that could add to some things.

[EightMilesHigh]

My friend asked me today what myspace is. I told him it's an internet, then immediately thought "wtf Liam"

[Zmev]

So my internet has been messing up lately and I can't be on this site much anymore.

For some of you this is good, for the rest it is probably great.

[citizen-erased18]

hello, i am new to this site so have little idea who anyone is or what's been said..but anyway..hello

[JonM]

Nice. What up.

Zmev is having internet problems?! Let's listen to good music and dance!

OONTS OONTS OONTS OONTS

You see, citizen-erased18, Zmev thinks the music you like is bad. At least, he thinks the music I like is bad. Then again, so do lots of people. Maybe it is bad. Oh no. I scared myself.

[asymm]

I'm going to see Syriana tonight. Anybody seen it yet? I'm excited about it, I think it'll be good.

Ah! Just got an email - Rune Grammofon has two new releases and I'm too anxious to wait for them to be imported so I paid an extra 5 bucks to get them shipped to me from Norway to ... Iowa? I'm also excited about that.

So do you think in the ASMZ song "Babylon Was Built on Fire/Starsnostars" the one guy is saying, "The brightest light, I ever saw, a cross, an empty parking lot...noooo staaaars!" or "The brightest light, I ever saw, across an empty parking lot...noooo staaaars!" ?

We've got no class, and we've got no principles.

I enjoy the occasional Iron & Wine and have not consumed any cannabis as of late.

[ATM]

I'm going to go see Mogwai :-D

[biografiend]

I enjoy Iron&Wine, and I have partaken in smoking cannabis 6-7 times, butttttt I have never been high. I'm such a lame-o when it comes to drugs.

[Wanker]

No inhaling for you, eh?

[biografiend]

Quite alot, actually.

[Zmev]

The first 2 times for me were rough too.

Now it's alll good.

[Kyle]

I got tickets for Clutch/Corrosion of Conformity at the end of this month, should be quite good.

[Wanker]

Does anyone else want to rail the Everyday Italian chick?

[sweboy]

I have no idea who that is, but sure, I'd hit it.

[pixiesfanyo]

I have no idea who that is, but sure, I'd hit it.

For the past few days, every time I log into slsk it always tries to re-dowload songs that I've already downloaded and deletes the ones I've added to the transfers list that day before. grrr.

[Wanker]

People have to go to Sputnik and rate You Forgot It In People because right now it has a 3.9 and that's utter bullshit.

[Tangy zizzle]

I should do more reviews. Mine were the tits.

What should i do?

[BillCosby]

the bravery

[Tangy zizzle]

Well I could... but I'm not going. I'd rather end it all than review/listen to them for more than 2 minutes.

[YDload]

Yank Crime doesn't have a review. someone just added an album name and cover art, but no words yet.

[BillCosby]

Serious answer:

Make Up

[Tangy zizzle]

Yeah I might do a Make Up album.

Good thinkin

[EightMilesHigh]

I'm such a lame-o when it comes to drugs.

As am I.

Is it just me, or are The Hives and The Vines, like, exactly the same band? I see barely any difference between these two bands. Maybe it's just me.

np: Joe Strummer - Long Shadow

[BillCosby]

Score.

Get your ears cleaned because that's the most ridiculous thing I've heard in a while. The Hives are a garage rock band that emulates 60s rock and The Vines are a grunge knockoff.

[Wanker]

Meh, I think they kinda sound the same.

/cleans ears

[BillCosby]

I think they have a couple similar aspects, but on the whole do not sound the same.

however, they're both pretty equal in their suckage ratios

[Wanker]

however, they're both pretty equal in their suckage ratios

And that's what matters the most.

[Scott Herren]

how does one calculate a suckage ratio?

[Wanker]

Very carefully.

and I think you use the quadratic formula in there somewhere. Maybe some linear algebra.

[Electrocution]

I've been talking to this girl online for like two hours.

I feel the need to go cook some breakfast or vacuum or something.

I hear pickin' up e-chicks in this year.

[Tangy zizzle]

The Vines are terrible.

The Hives are quite fun and actually know how to handle an original riff.

no i know her in real life we've already talked about this so why am i posting it on the internet

impress e-friends?

[Luxor]

This girl I almost went out with before my present girlfriend (of a year and a half) just told me she's in love with me.

Oh noes! I'm in quite the predicament.

[Happymeal]

And you like it, don'tcha.

[Luxor]

Ya damn right I do. Who wouldn't?

This past new years we were all at a party, her and my girlfriend were both really drunk and they ended up kissing.

Bonage ++

[Zappa]

Call her a ho.

[EightMilesHigh]

This girl I almost went out with before my present girlfriend (of a year and a half) just told me she's in love with me.

Tell her you're a robot, and robots like yourself cannot feel love.

Say it in a robot voice, and you'll need a stick to beat her off.

[Electrocution]

probably

[Wanker]

Run Into Flowers by M83 was on CSI: New York tonight during one of those lab scenes.

Oh, and I finally saw that M&Ms commercial with Iron & Wine playing Such Great Heights. Pretty lame.

[OrbDragon]

I actually saw the Hives before they got all big in a small local venue. They are actually pretty fun. Three months later they were at the MTV Music Awards.

That's how fast things can go I guess.

[mentalstephanie]

I got accepted to Penn State University. :D

[Electrocution]

I got accepted to Penn State University. :D
Come join the state college crew.

I mean the town.

[Well_Respected_Man]

Nice. :)

[Well_Respected_Man]

Does anyone have any music programs like reason or acid/sound forge that I could use for mac? I'm having bundles of trouble trying to find this shiat on limewire, everything is for PC.

[Electrocution]

I really want a cool program like that but everything I download is just a demo.

[YDload]

I got accepted to Penn State University. :D

And you're also accepted to Pitt :eek:

Well, I have friends at both schools, so I can probably tell you which one you should go to, depending on what suits you best:

Pitt:
Located in a city, suburb of Oakland with frequent gunshots/sirens heard at night.
Near Duquesne and Carnegie-Mellon, so that's like an extra 10-15 thousand college kids you can choose to party with.
Football team is meh, but men's basketball kicks ***.

Penn State:
Located in a town in the middle of nowhere, but because of the college it's always full of people and stuff to do.
Campus is really spread out like hell, so you have to walk through town to get to classes. Similar to Pitt but more expansive and not as many big buildings.
Basketball teams are meh, but football team was ranked #3 this year. Go JoePa!

that's all I know :(

[Electrocution]

Penn State:
Lots and lots of parties
lots of high school kids to hook up with
Me and pixiesfan (sort of)
possible riots
drugs
Joe Paterno
Downtown Dan

[pixiesfanyo]

but. the Penn State music scene has a tendency to suck.

and i think our town sucks. but it's your choice.

[moderaterock222]

lots of high school kids to hook up with

:(.

[Electrocution]

ooh yeah. It sucks a lot.

[Electrocution]

:(.
sorry brah. she's a girl though so she isn't as much of a horndog. at least that's what the standup comedians say.

[mentalstephanie]

I think I may be going to University of Pittsburgh. It's better for what I want to study anyway. Penn State is too dirty and weird.

oh and I would love meet pixiesfanyo and electrocution. :D but I'm already meeting wide load, right?

PSU is 20,000x cleaner than Pitt.

You are crazy if you think State COllege is dirty.

[mentalstephanie]

argghhh when I visited my brother at PSU I got a really bad imipression of it and he told me not to lean against the elevator because people have had a wee wee on it.

And I'm not too partial into the entire drinking thing and the middle of nowhere-ness. My relatives have told me PSU makes people into alcoholics. :p And about half of my highschool goes to PSU.

[Tangy zizzle]

Jesus, they breed you guys soft over there don't they?

[YDload]

College is what turns people into alcoholics, not just State College ;)

But hey wherever you wanna go. Do you like football or basketball more? There's a good indicator I guess.

[EightMilesHigh]

I keep worrying about college. It's unhealthy.

[mentalstephanie]

College is what turns people into alcoholics, not just State College ;)

But hey wherever you wanna go. Do you like football or basketball more? There's a good indicator I guess.

I like rugby. :angry: But anyway, a lot of my friends who go to PSU complain that all State College kids do is drink. And you just want me to go to PSU so I don't stalk you in Pitts. :D
And PSU isn't as good as University of Pittsburgh for nursing. But meh, I may revisit State College in the near future.

[pixiesfanyo]

Yeah. PSU was like the number 1 drug active school in the nation a year or two ago.

[YDload]

No school in western PA is a worse partying school than IUP, so don't worry about it. But yeah if you're goin' for nursing Steph, then Pitt would probably be the key. UPMC is a good collection of hospitals: they removed my appendix without having to cut a giant nasty scar in my abdomen \:D/

[Tangy zizzle]

I'd say every university in every part of the world is resposnsible (in some way) for the drinking habits of it's attendees/graduates.

It's a part of uni life, you don't have to do it. Have some ****ing willpower.

No, I'm saying that I don't want to be around a bunch of raging alcoholics. I believe Penn State is known to be a huge party school. :rolleyes:

[Wanker]

It's not like people break into your dormroom and force you to funnel liquor.

My school used to be notorious for being a "party school" but then they changed the name and supposedly the reputation changed with it. I don't think so though. Because even though 2,500 people go there, more than half of them are drinking every weekend. Don't avoid schools because they have reputations for partying. If you can control yourself then you should be fine. If I were you, I'd be more interested in the academics they offer.. you know, the supposed "real" reason people attend college.

[Tangy zizzle]

How often do people drink at your school Wanker? Weekends? Weekdays?

[Wanker]

It depends. I'll drink every weekend if I have the cash. But if I have some beers left over form the weekend and I don't have class until the afternoon the next day, I'll polish 'em off.

And I know people that'll have a few glasses of (box) wine during a weekday evening... maybe some rum or vodka too.

I mean it's college for ****'s sake. You don't to get hammered every night, but you wanna have some fun.

[Tangy zizzle]

Don't have to tell me buddy.

The demon drink is an alluring wee thing.

[Wanker]

hehe, don't worry. That comment wasn't directed at you.

This demon drink intrigues me though. /raises eyebrow

[br3ad_man]

I'm back, did I miss much?

I'm seeing Rufio tonight. I don't really like them, but three good friends of mine are going, so it will still be good. I'm going to Antony and the Johnsons next week. I had to get standing tickets, but they were cheaper so meh. When I was up in the city, I found a perfect used copy of Feels for $15. Score. I also got 2001: A Space Odyssey for $8.

[moderaterock222]

you americans don't know how to party..:p

[BillCosby]

I'm seeing Rufio tonight.

I'm sorry.

[br3ad_man]

I'm sorry.

We'll see. I've only heard 4 songs, the ones on their website. They weren't terrible, but they weren't exactly good.

The opening band are an "emo" band who are apparently awful. That should be fun :)

[Tangy zizzle]

Go into the pit with a lit cigarette in each hand and just burn arms baby.

Then swing punches at hXc kids.

[pixiesfanyo]

Rufio is a talented band. Well at least they use to be?

[Wanker]

Strange question, but would anyone have qualms about calling fives in an orgy?

[Tangy zizzle]

bahahahahahahaha

[pikester]

Strange question, but would anyone have qualms about calling fives in an orgy?

... what?

[Forest_Fire]

Anyone heard of Ayin? I know they've toured a few times, and they're hella good. Check them out if you can, or if they play near you.

[YDload]

okay you can all stop worrying, i found out how awesome Dinosaur Jr. is already. i like "Thumb" especially :)

[Kyle]

^That's a good song.

I came home from sixth form ill.....not good, I have exams next week.

[br3ad_man]

Rufio were awesome. I totally expected them to be meh and they were good.

Their guitarist dude is a badass asian.

[Wanker]

... what?

You know when you're sitting down at a party an you gotta get up to go piss, you call "fives" (short for five minutes) on your seat so no one takes it before you get back.

But yeah, that definition in an orgy setting.

[Dave de Sylvia]

I'd sit on your seat, so to speak.

[br3ad_man]

So I want to review something and give it a bad rating for a change. Any suggestions?

Harry & The Potters. They're my new 'band I wanna suffocate'.

[JonM]

Last night, I think a police car I'd been evading without realizing it caught up to my car and took down my tag number after I'd already escaped inside the house with lots of things I wouldn't want a cop catching me with. Aren't I hardcore? I might have completely imagined the thing, too.

[biografiend]

**** tha' police.

Sooooo I will be hanging out with the boy tonight. Things have been kindof odd betwen he and I lately, and I havent talked to him since Tuesday, so I think tonight is either going to go really good or really bad. bleh. :/

[The NPC]

Ah, Friday.

What a good day.

[JonM]

I'm not looking forward to going back to a schedule where it matters what day of the week it is. I'm such a spoiled brat.

[br3ad_man]

Harry & The Potters. They're my new 'band I wanna suffocate'.

I'll be sure to check them out.

I have to work today and tomorrow. Lame.

[Interstate]

I was supposed to be going to my friends party today but this week has gone sooo slowly and I'm exhausted. He's told his friends to invite their friends and people their friends know etc etc.

His house is gonna get trashed so bad. :lol:

[ATM]

Whoever mention Gish in that Smashing Pumpkins thread, thank you.

[Interstate]

Can someone recommend the most accessible/best album from Ted Leo & The Pharmacists please? I've been wanting to get into them forever and I'm just gonna go ahead and buy an album. ( Or possibly download if my internet decides to actually download at broadband speed)

Ah, Friday.

What a good day.

Friday is a good day. I'm going to another one of my local shows tonight, but it's not a ska show ( :upset: )

[Happymeal]

I have Shake the Sheets and Hearts of Oak and they're both great.. but I'd really recommend getting the latter.

Don't ever say Ska again.

That music must be destroyed.

Methinks you had a tramatic experience skanking at age eight.

I had a really great night tonight. My friends missed the bus, so I was waiting for a long time, and some locals came up to me and started talking. I ended up meeting a really pretty girl who seemed to like me. We exchanged various contacts.

I feel quite nice.

[br3ad_man]

I wish I had a friend who was a girl and was remotely interested in stuff I'm interested in.

[Tomahawk]

You should just find a guy like that, and pay for a sex change.

[Dave de Sylvia]

You should just find a guy like that, and pay for a sex change.
Or just settle for the guy

[ATM]

Yea, I wish my girlfriend was more into music.
