Heh, all I gotta say is that I have my beliefs, and others have theirs, and I won't dispute theirs so long as they don't dispute mine, people gotta just let others be.

We ended up not reading Nietzsche in class, though it was on the syllabus. I plan on reading it over the summer though because that was rather a disappointment. Bevond Good and Evil I think it is...I've been interested in reading something of his anyways...and my friends and I are such dorks we might create a philosophy club over the summer to have debates and read literature heh.

Nietzsche is great to read, because he never really claimed to be writing philosophy. It just seems to flow better.

I think I'm going to be ending up doing Nietzsche and Sartre next year.

Just don't see it expecting a dramatisation of the books (like I did), and you could well enjoy it, even if some parts fall a bit flat. If nothing else, you get to tell me what you thought of the film/Zooey Deschanel afterwards.

Anyway. I just read a pretty cool (and short) article on atheism, whilst making myself a cup of tea.

[Bartender]

Who did you vote for? Around where I live it makes no difference who you vote for, since we're in one of the safest Conservative seats in the country, but my Mum's voting Lib Dem anyway.

Liberal Democrat.

Screw the secrecy of the ballot!

What with being around Newcastle though, I'm not sure how much difference it'd make to Labour's hold.. I'm not sure if I've sent it off in time anyway.

I love reading Nietzche...he's just such a fascinating guy, even though his ideas were so badly misappropriated by the Nazis during World War II.

Yeah, that was all his stupid sister's fault.. Good luck seeing the Guide, and enjoy The Arcade Fire. I wish I could say more on that point, but I still haven't heard anything by them (except lots of praise from Alt/Indie quarters).

Well, it wasn't free per se. It didn't cost me anything though.

And I made a penny on returning that CD. A good day indeed.

[GurS]

not much, as said, we may have found a new singer for my band. He's a pretty good singer, he's an absolutley incredible guitarist (whilst he also plays metal, he plays jazz and funk too, so we're going to use that to add an extra dimension to our music), he's v. popular (bringing in a ton of new fans) and pretty good looking (notgay) (which will attract a female following). And he's a raving Marxist

not a bad find, all in all

[Shred Danson]

That's cool. I talked to my drummer in my band that I formed in Kentucky over the summer and they said they'd take me back when I move, so yeah. I'm glad I didn't have to start over...

Question for Jelle, out of curiosity: In Dutch schools is English taught the way American schools teach Spanish or Italian?

I've heard a lot of good things about Trailer Park Boys.

Oh, and another reason why I have a hard time following soccer (football to the Euros): snotty Europeans who bash the US National Team whenever they can.

[GurS]

well, the ARE terrible

[Illmatic]

:rolleyes:

Because after all, the English certainly have just racked up World Cup title after World Cup title in the past quarter century, right?

Oh, you mean the best you guys have done in that time span is fourth place?

STFU.

When you guys crash in burn in 06--and you will--make sure you don't kill anyone in the riots, k?

[Dancin' Man]

But there are worse teams by far. Not that I know who they are but I am sure that there are. The US did not so terribly in the last world cup did they?

[GurS]

england ain't to great either

i unofficialy support holland

[Illmatic]

The US finished in the top 8 in 2002 and are an up-and-coming team.

It's just that snobby Europeans love to bash them whenever they can.

I think I'm going to use my journal to write anti-mexican rants.

Mexicans are cool. I use mine to write about purple birdshit

[Shred Danson]

Mexicans are cool ONLY when they come into this country legally and speak perfect english and don't act like gangstas.. The rest just annoy me.

[ATM]

Hey guys.

My school didn't offer Italian. I took Latin.

And I agree, Ray, it is annoying how everyone bashes the USA national team. But honestly, who cares? It just makes it that much more satisfying when we win games.

I predict another good showing from us at the next world cup in Germany.

[ATM]

Mexicans are cool ONLY when they come into this country legally and speak perfect english and don't act like gangstas.. The rest just annoy me.

You expect them to speak perfect english? Let's say USA didn't offer all of the oppourtunities it does, and you had to flee to Mexico. Do you think you would have spanish mastered?

[Shred Danson]

Holy crap, I just realized my substitute teacher put us in the special ed room.

Hehe...that's screwed up.

No, I don't. I'm talking about the illegal immigrants that flood this town and all the shops and billboards with Spanish phrases on it, not explaining them in English. This town is more like Mexico then California. And no, I don't think I'd have Spanish mastered because, hey, I can't talk that fast. Besides, they're not fleeing Mexico. They're taking our jobs here so they could get money, then go back to Mexico and give their money away. I don't blame them either.

[CemetaryGates9]

For the most part, they're not taking your jobs, unless you work at a sweat shop.

You do realize what jobs they are doing right? They aren't exactly taking the most desirable jobs. When is the last time you saw an illegal immigrant as a weatherman, etc?

[Shred Danson]

I'm just tired of hearing Spanish EVERYWHERE I go.

[ATM]

ATM, I ****ing LIVE in California in a town near the border. I know what kind of jobs they are doing. But you know what? My dad also does a "less desireable" job; he owns a one-man parking lot construction company. And I can't tell you how many times he's lost a bid for a job because there's a company hiring illegal immigrants because they have more manpower. Sure, they're making their living, but what about us?

I understand what you are saying, but I'm speaking in general terms. There are so many upper-class snobs that are constantly lumping a lot of the problems in this country on the immigrants coming in. It's just my opinion, though.

[CemetaryGates9]

Here's some xemocorex ****.

Firstoff, I will voice my opinions on last night sucking dick. I just said **** it and gave my parents the interim report. I shan't go into details, but they got pissed and I got into a three way bitch fight with my mom and dad. This morning I talked to the band teacher like always, because she's cool, and she said we didn't even have to show those to out parents. My reaction: ****. It's overwith now, but if I ****ing fail this grade, my God. Nothing happened in homeroom or band, and in Science we listened to the teacher ramble on about cliteris and menstration. I had to give notes to every teacher from my dad asking that they give me weekly progress reports and ****. At the end of Science we had to stay in class 15 minutes after the bell ( I read Great Gatsby the whole time ) because they were bringing in drugsniffing dogs and ****.

It is obligatory to take English though, if that's what you mean...

I was mostly curious at how you would learn the verb rules and sentence structure and such, as it is very ****ed up in our language.

Heh, we get exposed to it at an early age. We don't dub any programs, so it's all subtitled so we pick up quite a bit of English, also through the internet.
We start getting it in school at the age of 12, I think. Dutch and English are both Germanic languages too, so it's easier for us to learn than say: Italian.

Don't be misled though, not everyone speaks it as good as I do. A lot of people are really bad at it, but almost everyone knows *some* English, even if it is crappy.

English has very few regular verb patterns, and theres all the words spelt similarly or the same, but with completely different sounds and meanings. eg:
bow, bow, bough, though, cough, rough, etc.

Well, technically not, I think. But it is probably the most widely spread language along with French and Spanish. But in numbers it isn't second I think, because of China and India.


Plus we have a lot of trivial grammar rules. I don't know any offhand but I learned a lot of them while preparing for the SATs.

Trust me, a lot of languages have their part of totally random rules. Not just English, although English can be pretty chaotic. That's the problem with English, it seems easy at first, but when you study it at Uni, like me, it's very difficult.

[Woodstock]

Ever heard of the fact that internet translation sites suck horribly... :rolleyes:
Right. Usually, it just translates every individual word. It doesn't take into account the grammatical rules.

In so much as I like any education system, I rather like my education system. I like to think I came away with a decent knowledge of German.

I think British and American education system are more specialised, whereas we get a very broad education. I think that's why sometimes *you people* come off as ignorant, because some things are not addressed in certain educations, while we can talk about this and that, because we get a bit of everything.

[Illmatic]

Yeah.

A specialized education that won't help us out in the real world.

[superpeer]

That hurt....

It's quite simple to explain though. Dutch is my native language, obviously I have to take that. English has become such an important language that there's no way around it, we have to take it. In South Belgium, everyone speaks French, so to get along with them Walloons, we have to take French, also Obligatory.

Latin or economics? The choice was easy for me, I had to take it for 2 hours per week and that was more than enough for me, it is soooo incredibly boring.

I only took Old Greek for one year, just to learn the crazy alphabet.

Then I had the choice: extra math or science or an extra language: I suck at maths and science, so yeah, Spanish it was.

Don't flatter yourself too much. :p

I think learning hundreds of Japanese symbols would be more difficult. Plus there are language that just have a totally different view on the world and say everything differently. For Western people English isn't *that* hard, sure not a lot of foreigners can spell everything right and get all the grammar right, but the native speakers can't either. :)

[ATM]

It's pretty easy to learn, actually, because the grammer is very similar to English. It's not like German where you have to structure your sentences completely different. Plus, a lot of words are very similar to English.

I thought it was kind of cool it was their last album actually. They release this kind of progressive hardcore record that garners huge critical acclaim from across the globe/musical spectrum, tour it, and promptly break up declaring that they've done what they came together to do.

I agree. Unfortunately DFelon is a mod and can ban people for telling him such.

[Dancin' Man]

Assuming he can find an excuse. I rarely spam anymore and have ceased to mindlessly flame members (Eleventeen has learned). I also though, have no reason to tell him such other than just wanting to which would be considered trolling and spam and thus a banable offence unless I did it in an album review. In one of the reviews he yells at Br3ad about the Brand New review I could do it because he just goes to br3ad's reviews to tell him he hates the Deja Entendu review. I won't though.

Oh, okay. Well, it seems to be commonly agreed that the only really essential thing they've done is Remain in Light. However, of the five I have, that was the last one I bought; maybe I just haven't listened to it enough yet (it seems a bit more difficult to get into than the others), but I don't like it as much as some of the others. The point is that it hasn't grabbed me as much as any of the others (other than Speaking in Tongues), so I'm not sure if I'd recommend it as a first album.

My favourites of the ones I have are Talking Heads '77 (an excellent, excellent debut, which include Superpeer's favourite TH song, I think) and Fear of Music, which is kind of like a transitional sound between TH77 and RIL. So those two would probably be my top recommendations.

Other than that, More Songs About Buildings and Food was the first one I got, and the one which prompted me to go out and buy the others, but after a while of listening to it, it seems like although there's nothing of close to low quality on there, there's nothing of spectacularly high quality either. Speaking in Tongues is solid, but probably the weakest overall album of the five I have. It does have the original version of Burning Down the House, though.

I could always upload some tracks for you if you want, though I think Talking Heads work better in album form.

The Oncoming Storm - Unearth

[Bartender]

munky, definitely get Remain In Light. Personally I love that album, although the sound of it really varies. The first half is very funk influenced, and the second half is a lot more mellow, thanks to the role that Brian Eno (Roxy Music) played in the making of the album. I'd say that's the only absolutely indispensable thing they've done, although Talking Heads and David Byrne in general = :cool:

Quiet you :angry:

Though, could you recommend some David Byrne solo stuff? I think I saw an album of his in a Virgin Megastore the other day for £3, but the only album of his I've even heard of by name is Look into the Eyeball, so I need advice.

Talking Heads eh? Again, I grew up on this band, I would have to say True Stories is my favourite by them, it's deffinitley worth checking out the live album "Stop Making Sense" too, there's some smashing acoustic and electric versions of songs on that album, PLUS! I got my copy for £3! What a bargain eh? :cool:
I fully agree. There aren't many books that really convey evil that successfully (well, not that I've read, anyway), but that one does it very very well. Quite alarmingly so, actually.
I've read the book of A Clockwork Orange, and seen the films.
The book's not much good, to be truthful, but the film is awesome, some incredibly weird scenes, the porcelin dildos is one, and the scene were the lead character (I haven't seen it for such a long time) smacks the fat guy in the balls. The torture scene is sickening at the end, a real look away moment.

And yeah, how is everyone? Been on a kinda post hiatus for a while, and haven't posted in here for a while.
My new musical tastes have progressed:
I bought Meat Is Murder and The Queen Is Dead by the Smiths on Saturday, and got a Johnny Cash greatest hits too.
It's weird, each time I listen to the Smiths, I feel like a slight hypocrite, I always used to laugh at my dad for listening to them, but really, they revolutionised a music scene which had hardly any "Indie/Alternative" aspects. What a group!

[Dancin' Man]

Apparently, the original American version of the book omitted the last chapter which really pissed off the author. The movie also left it out which annoyed him further. I'm reading a version with chapter 21 though and I'll see how it is. The author is a lunatic.

What do you think of it? I've only listened to most of it once through, but it didn't impress me at all :-/


And thanks for the Talking Heads Recommendations Bartender and Med :)

I actually like it. A lot of people say that they don't, but after a couple listens, it started to grow on me.

No problem. And if you have £20 or so lying around spare, you could always buy several..

In other news, is Audioscrobbler working for anyone else? I don't mean the usual lack of updates; my recent tracks haven't updated since this morning, and since they usually update in real time, I'm wondering.

The intro was good until the drums kick in. I don't think they are lined up properly.

Whoops :(

Misread your post. I thought you said you just finished the drums.

Overall, it has a lot of potential.

I knew it wasn't you, but other than that, I had no idea what was going on...

:kiss: :p


Yeah I think this could turn out really good for the competition. If I can get the drums to sound a bit pro, that can go a long ways. :) I knew it wasn't you, but other than that, I had no idea what was going on...
Some guy made an account just to spite me, because he has some kinda of a personal vendetta against me


He tried to get me permed, but he realized that his original account would be banned too


he's a moron

I hate that guy. He needs to be permed.

[Ramsey]

meh he isn't breaking the rules but he's just really annoying, to me

He doesn't really bother other members the way he bothers me


Every other post he quotes and just argues with me, its so gay, over something entirely trivial too, like TE (theend) or my postcount or something

[TheDMV]

What's the URL for TE? I've been wondering what that website is for a while.

Well, today was exhausting.

I was tired, and I had my most brutal finals today.

On a lighter note i have a new avatar.
