it's just that it's not how people speak
it will take a few years until he realises having no friends sucks so
well writing doesn't necessarily have to sound exactly like how people talk. i like to mix up everyday, conversational phrases with more technical language and concepts
regardless, you forget that i'm attending the University of Chicago, and that people do speak like that. and yes it's because we're a bunch of elitist assholes

my friend was about to go there. thank god he didn't

haha your attempts to pathologize my behavior are hilarious. especially Knott-'s portrayal of me as a loser who spends all of his time online and never leaves the house, coming from a guy who has written 120 fucking reviews for this site alone

not everyone spends a minimum of eight hours per review MJ js

not talking about writing. it's borderline forgivable in a proper, semi-formal piece like a review
but when you're just chatting you throw needlessly intellectual words around and that's not how people speak. you always pick the more obscure word even over a direct synonym. either there's a strong chance you're autistic or you have other severe (probably self-esteem knowing what you look like) issues for which you compensate by trying to convince yourself you are a special intellectual when in actual fact you're probably top 5% at best.

for this site alone
yah cause i have secret reviewing accounts all over the place
|

i'm pretty sure that most of the time i just throw in ridiculous words for the sake of absurdity. and yes, i also have a casual command of difficult concepts and the technical language that's used to express them, so i'm not afraid to use it casually
you always pick the more obscure word even over a direct synonym
also if you could give an example of this that'd be great haha

look at the review dude

haha

there's literally no way i'm going to do that because you don't actually want to know, whatever i say you'll just turn around and say "actually that's a perfectly normal word you just don't use it because ur stupid"
so
no

yeah sorry adam anyway this album
was pretty good
|

like what word, WeepingBanana? "thanatotic," for example? there are very few synonyms for that word, and in any case they would fail to capture the specific meaning i intend. because it's not just that something is "destructive," but destructive out of a redirection of the death drive, in Freud's theory. which is clearly what i'm talking about with the "libidinal origin" and sublimation. anyway it's part of a review

ok Downer i will be back later with a more detailed evisceration of this review (or another one of your reviews)
|
| |
lol at trying to discredit a well written review by interpreting one line in a different context

I have concluded that Heat Distraction starts in 13/8 and then morphs into 5/4 and back into 13/8 again...

yah that's what I got as well. I love odd time signatures and it drives me wild when I can't figure them out.
