yea, you posted like 3,000 times last month

and how is the 7,000 post guy doing it??? there isn't just one lesson forum to spam

[Jom]

Mind Revolution is the user who is spamming lessons. All you have to do is run the bot, and you get a bunch of posts that occur every so often. The only problem is that he isn't doing it subtly, because he went from 800 to 6,700 over the course of a day, and that's just chaotic.

Gates was banned because a major of his posts ITT are short and substanceless, and the mod team is cracking down on those sort of posts.

Meanwhile, I'm trying to write my conversation between the two philosophers... however, I need to think of where they would be talking that would be plausible. Suggestions (note: this is directed at people like Vince, magicbus, and Med)?

Aristotle and Seneca. I wouldn't have a problem if they were in the same time frame, but they aren't... so I just need a place for them that they would be talking. It can be very basic and simple, I just don't want them talking in the Underworld.

I am listening to the most wuss-emo song (not emotional hardcore, so don't give me **** for ****ing up the genre name, thanks) ever. Well, maybe not ever, but it's up there alright. For some reason, it speaks to me, even though I've never had to deal with anything the singer talks about. I like the piano intro, though.

You could make it a very bad play, and they are far superior to it, so they'd rather discuss philosiphy with each other.

Thanks, 'bus.

What I think I'm going to do is try typing the meaty part of the conversation, and then work on the initial arrival and final farewell after I go see the profs during office hours and ask them for suggestions.

[whiny] And then you'd bring me home
And we go to sleep, but this time not alone
And you'd kiss me in your living room
I know you miss me in your living room
'Cause these nights I think maybe that I miss you in my living room...

Good work, Jim.

How are we all today? I'm on for a little while, since my weekend has turned into a quagmire of uni/work/social activities. I'm slowly wading my way through this mess.

I went to the Dawn Service for the ANZAC day celebrations. I don't think I will go to the parade though. Lest we forget.

On a lighter note, my chemistry lecturer replied to an email I sent him, indicating he might be able to get me a job in a lab. Good times. :D

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jim, why not have the two philosphers meet at work. I didn't read exactly what these philosophers are, but I assume they are simply two ordinary people? In that case, have them meet in the tea room of an oil rig, etc. Make the environment a stark contrast to the dialouge.

EDIT: Just saw your last comment. If this is ancient times, have them meet in a battlefield/foundry/stable etc.

Yes. 3 hot lady friends, lighting matches with the fly of my pants.

Fenders are blues and classic rock beasts. That's where their biggest strengths are, for me. I would love a good American Fender to provide a balance to my Satch locking trem guitar...I would like to play blues occaisionally, and definitely play cleaner, chord-based guitar stuff, but the Satch one is much more suited to metal riffs and solos, and the floating trem makes blues licks sound like sh*te.

Wow, I've recently become addicted to The Sims, again. Something about the whole ability to control these little people, to either make or break their lives, hopes, relationships... it's great. The best thing ever is getting them to fix the broken fridge, see them get electrocuted, and get them to plead with the Grim Reaper for life. Good times.

I've also been playing a lot of SimCity 4 and Pharoah. Again, the control is on a bigger scale, and so is the destruction. :)

there is something oddly rewarding about locking a sim in the swimming pool or putting a fence around them and watching them **** themselves and die :lol:

Still planning on getting Halflife? Then we can kill Nazi's together in Day of Defeat. I've never played the Sims. I guess I spend too much time with my first person shooters. Did you read my review in Vince's concert thread?

You know how you start the game with Bella Goth and her husband and kid? I wanted to keep her, but move in a guy of my own, and get rid of the kid and the husband. So I moved those two upstairs, and then removed the staircase. ;)

I have House Party, which means I can invite everyone over to get (sim) drunk and ride that mechanical bull. It's cool.

Late response to Chris, Chris and Jason: I would love to be a musician as well and I appreciate the compliments. I'm going to see what happens at school in that regard. I'm basically going to try and do everything I can do music-wise while I'm still at school and am garunteed a home, food, money, and an education. I understand how difficult it is though, and will soon turn my thoughts to writing after college. I figure I can support myself easily enough for at least a few years in a slightly-above entry-level job, and I don't intend to get married until I have a clear idea of what my ultimate situation is likely to be, probably towards the end of my twenties. When I get married, I'll do the other things as much as I can--I'll probably be happy just continuing to create music or fiction even if I'm not making money with it--but at that point it'll be time to find the more "realistic" option.

Here's hoping I become a rock star, then. ;)

Time for class, guys. Later. :wave:

As most of you know, my parents and I have been in an epic struggle against each other over my freedom.

So, June 15, it's a road trip to freedom, from Illegal-Immigration-laden California to the great Commonwealth of Kentucky. I'm so ****in' elated right now.

You sure do finish the school year pretty early. We've got testing up our anus this week, man. The school's pressuring us to do better this year because they don't want to be taken over under the No Child Left Behind Act, because we've failed the past two years, but I don't give two shits and a wet hairy cunt about this school. So I'm doing my part :lol: Plus, I'm moving so it really doesn't affect me. I win. Catheral City High School loses.

I had never done anything like that until I moved to Norway, and then my whole world got flipped upside down. It was so strange, kids as young as 12 will be walking down the street smoking. I picked up the habit, unfortunately.

Then when I moved back to USA, my best friends from growing up had started smoking weed, and I tried it and thought it was fun. I still like it, but I hate how much my girlfriend smokes.

This is mostly true for soft drugs like weed and even acid but things like Heroin are very addictive and DO **** you up. And cigarettes too, mainly due to the **** that is put in them, hence why smoking cigarettes is soooo much worse for you than smoking the occasional joint. Everything in moderation I suppose.

Reminds me of the time when Atreyu_Breakingbenjamin said he had over 600 extreme metal cds, and that he was a big fan of extreme metal, yet his two favorite bands are very mediocre and bland. Yeah, that is believable. :rolleyes:

Also regarding his "600 extreme metal cds", he seemed to only pop up into discussions and defend the new metalcore acts, but would never talk about extreme metal. And when he tried he made an *** out him self. He Called Vehemence black metal and called Dimmu Borgir death metal and proceeded to tell all the death head regulars that he was right and they were wrong. :lol:

Also he showed his false love for extreme metal when he said he has never heard of Opeth, and he had just finally heard Nile, Behemoth and various other bands...

He also made some remark that if you are in the music industry you know more about music then some random guy on the street...funny similarities.

[magicbus]

Did anyone ever check out that Santana song I YSI'd? It's very cool.

[Shred Danson]

OK, this pretty much exlemplifies how little of a life I had. I did a psychoanalysis on atreyu_breakingbenjamin, like somebody asked for earlier. Here goes:

Atreyu_breaking benjamin has many personal qualities-some positive, most negative. From the first time he posted on these forums, he has made a negative impact on me. The one incident that sticks out in my mind is one of the posts he made back when he was a "n00b" with few posts. This was back in September. He went into a thread ranting on about how everyone only listens to "mainstream" and what's "popular" in the music scene today. I went on to point out his user name.

In my opinion, atreyu_breakingbenjamin wants to think that he belongs to a group of "elite metalheads" (i.e his user title and various avatars he has used of mainstream "underground" bands) when in fact, he is just following another music trend that will perhaps die out in the next five or ten years. Sadly, a few good bands belong to that trend, but let's not get beside the point. People like atreyu_breakingbenjamin bring those trends down, which is somewhat ironic, since they are the life support of said trends.

I'll admit that atreyu_breakingbenjamin has some good points at certain (rare) times. If he stopped worrying about being "cool" and "hip" and acting "knowledgeable" (i.e downplaying guitar solos, which both Atreyu and Breaking Benjamin incorporate into their songs from time to time), he could become a productive poster. He also has a problem trying to be something he's not most of the time, and that is a crux.

In conclusion, I'm sure that if atreyu_breakingbenjamin put some thought into his posts, and stopped contradicting himself all too often, he would have much greater ease posting on these forums. Maybe starting over with a different account wouldn't be too bad for him.

College students in the thread: Have you ever wondered what the point was?

Nope.


Nonpoint?

I like their first album, and the song Antihero uploaded a while back (thanks for that, by the way :)).

Antihero again; why not just have them meeting in a forum/market?

I'm slightly annoyed, anyway. After four years of compulsory postal voting in my area (the area I live in, not where I go to University), the local authorities have decided to allow people to choose once more this year (in time for a general election), with the default being regular voting, meaning you have to apply for postal voting. Being in Leeds as I am, I didn't get this message until about half an hour ago, and the deadline for applying for postal vote papers is..tomorrow. So I've downloaded an application form, and now all I have to do is fill it out and send it on up to Gateshead civic centre with my non-existent fax machine, because of some ****sticks somehow neglecting to inform me of all this.

In better news though, my grandma randomly gave me £200 a couple of days ago :cool:

[Shred Danson]

Sorry about the double postage, Bartender, this computer is a little slow.

No, it was a cover. In the Air Tonight, I think. I'll download this one, though.

[ATM]

Do you guys think a mixtape thread would be successful here in rock and metal? The one in alternative/indie is so great, I thought it might be cool to make one here.

[CemetaryGates9]

Hello.

I finished reading The Jungle today.

Try it out, dude. I'd be a regular; I make mixes all the friggin' time.

[Joe]

which Satch album?
The Extremist, it's incredible

Try it out, dude. I'd be a regular; I make mixes all the friggin' time.

i'd be a regular too probably. it might be thought as illegal tho.. i'll check

[\m/Pete\m/]

I'll get you the Broken Bones songs (possibly the rest of the cd as well). All the songs are very powerful and make you listen to them over and over. Broken Bones has one of the most attention grabbing choruses Ive heard in a while.

edit: gocaps if you dont already own it you should buy Satch's "Strange Beautiful Music"...It is officially my favorite Satch album.

[ATM]

Tender or Peer, would a mixtape thread be illegall? I want to have mod suppourt before I take any action.

Wow, this Bark Psychosis album is excellent.

[CemetaryGates9]

So how would the thread work?

[Shred Danson]

So how would the thread work?

People post various mixes of bands and songs that would fit together.

[Illmatic]

I didn't even know you played guitar! A Muddy Waters tele must be sweet.

You'll find I'm full of surprises.

I was thinking about it today, and I figured I'd be happiest in a job that requires a lot of socializing and human interaction.

[CemetaryGates9]

Oh, just as I thought. Doesn't sound bad.

I'm kind of hesitant at the moment because YSI seems to be slowly dying recently :-/ All my downloads from there have been going much more slowly the last few days.


*nonpoint songs*

Thanks. What do you think of the first album as opposed to the later ones?

i'll check it out. it's just i was in borders today and i had no idea which to get and so i just got this one, it's really good tho.

[Jom]

w00t !

I just finished my imaginary conversation for classics. It took me a couple hours, but I am very happy with how it turned out. Now, to run off and print it.

I remember Med saying that he'd like to read an excerpt from it, so I'll edit it in next time I see him online posting here.

EDIT:

Bartender, I have them meeting in a tavern. My prof said that that would be acceptable.

Yes, the song was Phil Collins' "In The Air Tonight." I have a number of other songs on my computer here, but from their earlier albums.

[munky_magik]

The Extremist is alright, my favourite of his is Engines of Creation.

I also managed to waltz past my 6,000th post without noticing where I put it :-/

[Illmatic]

As a Nas fan, I absolutely have to point this out: "In The Air Tonight" is sampled and used as the beat for "One Mic"

As a Pats fan, I absolutely have to point this out: In the 2002 Divisional Playoffs ("The Snow Game"/"The Tuck Game"), "In The Air Tonight" was playing over the PA at Foxboro Stadium during the most crucial juncture of the game (when the referee was reviewing Brady's fumble to see if it really was a fumble). I know this because
1) I was there
and
2) I watched the "Three Games to Glory" DVD about every day for a month--I assumed it was the last time I would ever see a Boston team win a championship so I wanted to savor the moment

Which one? If you were the one talking about Europa I already have it as I love Santana :)

Yea it's Europa. I uploaded it because I began learning it this weekend.

And ATM, I've heard of that Jewish Raggae guy. He's gonna be at this year's Bonnaroo festival.

[Illmatic]

Oh lawd.

The Dresden Dolls are touring with Nine Inch Nails?

That would be a bit too much self-absorbed whining for my tastes.

[Arucard]

I just sent the drummer of Arsis an e-mail, i hope i get a reply. It was mainly thanking for the impact his music has made on my life, and perspective of music as a whole.

I can safely say he is one of the only musicians i look up too.

For right now, yes, you do win. But until we find someone who posts in this thread who lives in L.A/San Diego.. you're screwed. :thumb:

I wanna get down to SoCal again. It's so awesome down there. I've only been when I was maybe 10 during X-mas break. I really didn't absorb much of the culture that young, but it was still one of the funner vacations I've been on.
