""I agree with him completely." by zxlkho"

You missed the part where he dismissed your grammatical errors.


"'but' is actually a conjunction"'

Congrats, you have one person on here who agrees with you. Could it be that he's just as dumb as you?

"And yes UhhKris, the fool always sees the logical man as foolish. And i can judge as a fool on the basis of your inane comments and unrefined language. "

How ironic.

"You missed the part where he dismissed your grammatical errors."

Did you miss the part where I proved they weren't errors?

And well done on failing to respond to my correction of your vs. you're.



"Congrats, you have one person on here who agrees with you. Could it be that he's just as dumb as you?"



This question is moot considering you were the one that was proved wrong over and over again.



"How ironic."



And now the irony is on you. After being consistently proven wrong, (and you absolutely can't deny your errors) you are the one who's made to look foolish; thus the irony that you just brought to mind is actually shining on you, acting as a spotlight for your ignorance. I could go on for hours proving you wrong again and again, but i have better things to do with my life, and so should you, though i'm sure you don't. A pity as that is, I say goodbye to you and have a joyful day nursing the wounds of ignorance.

No, I saw that part, but it was lacking proof.

And I didn't respond because it's pointless. I know it was an error. Sometimes my fingers move too quickly for my brain on the keyboards. Here's the difference, though: I'm willing to admit I was wrong. You, on the other hand, would rather continue to spit out "knowledge" you don't have.

"This question is moot considering you were the one that was proved wrong over and over again."

Ummmm.... where? You have two people that supported you, and one of those people was laughing along with me at your "perfect" english.

"And now the irony is on you."

Irony cannot describe a person.

"After being consistently proven wrong, (and you absolutely can't deny your errors) you are the one who's made to look foolish; thus the irony that you just brought to mind is actually shining on you, acting as a spotlight for your ignorance."

You continue to say that but I don't see where. Typing huge paragraphs doesn't look you make all that more intelligent, either.

"I could go on for hours proving you wrong again and again, but i have better things to do with my life"

Masturbate? Try sex. It's much more pleasurable. Or at least use "The Stranger."

"A pity as that is, I say goodbye to you and have a joyful day nursing the wounds of ignorance."

The only person I believe who needs to get laid more than you is Mappy, and that's fucking sad.

"I'm laughing at your definition of opinions. I and the english language were under the impression

that opinions weren't based in fact. Music is for enjoyment and the experience of how the artists

resonates with each individual; each individuals past playing an intricate role in how that music

affects them. Now, taking that people past varies greatly, you can't expect everyone's taste to be

the same and thus people like other things. But, you are like Shakespeare's Jacques, sampling

everything and finding none of it good (much to your pleasure) while others look on you in derision

and laughter, rolling their eyes as you spew elitist nonsense. You are not an intellect, but a

sophomoric ass who thinks himself of great authority because he's a contributing reviewer to a

website. I suggest you find joy in other people and their experience rather than in the supposed

superiority you gain criticizing other's opinions, because in truth, the ones who thinks themselves

better than all are really the ones who are better than none. Through this comment I hope to bring

to light that i find myself no more superior to any but the likes you."



okay.



first, it's "the english language and I." second, you meant "resonate" instead of resonates because

you used artists as a plural and not as a singular noun. third, i could list more plural mistakes

but you made quite a few and they're all in the same fashion as my second point. fourth, derision is

a form of jeering laughter and it's redundant to have both of them in the same sentence.

fifth, you misused your semicolon in the sentence, "Music is for enjoyment and the experience of

how the artists resonates with each individual; each individuals past playing an intricate role in

how that music affects them." think of a semicolon for being a replacement for the word "because",

"and" or "but". you used it to break up a sentence (like a comma.) ex. "Music is for enjoyment and

the experience of how the artists resonate with each individual; their pasts play an intricate role

in how that music affects them." sixth, you're using "thus" instead of "therefore" and you're not

even using it correctly. "thus" means "in this way", whereas "therefore" means "for this reason".

seventh, "but" can be a preposition OR a conjunction. in this case, you are trying to use it as a

conjunction but (see how I did that) failing because you used it to start a sentence. eighth, you

used "because in truth" instead of a semicolon, proving that you really have no concept on how they

are used at all. and finally, you wouldn't have come on to this website and made that post unless

you were trying to prove your intellect. it's far more likely that you consider yourself above the

rest of us, and you should probably go off yourself before someone in the real world hears you

blather like you just did.

Thanks Scoot for bringing some sense here. Apparently sarcasm alone had no effect.



Possibly not an actual 5/5, but I do find this to be one of Steven Wilson's strongest works. Everybody's always raving about In Absentia, but I actually prefer this as well as a couple of other Porcupine Tree albums. Besides, I don't have that many albums rated as 5's so it's about time I added an another one...

Dear FrankRedHot,

I am confused. Perhaps you, with your infinite intellect, are capable of bringing me to your level of understanding. You said, "You used a website that some user made, I used an English book. I think I'll stick with the English book [...] Once again, use a book, not a website. Thanks again." By saying this you implied that an internet user, such as yourself, cannot have a valid argument, but instead an author of a book holds authority over arguments. So, understanding your logic behind arguments, why do you continue to comment? If you're trying to prove an argument, is continuing the argument on the internet nothing but a waste of time? Understanding your logic, yes, it is just a waste of time. Instead of posting thousands of comments, why not write a book? How do you feel knowing now you could have contributed to society, but instead chose to spend your time on absolutely nothing? How does it feel knowing you don't make a difference in this world? I'll leave you with two options: you can either say nothing, thus admitting your fault and showing you are not entirely without wisdom, or you can continue to comment and fill your role of the fool all the better.

P.S. I don't care for an answer to my last question.


Dear Scoot,

You have clearly displayed your intellect with your use of the English language. I do not doubt you will achieve an English degree worth showing off. I do hope you will use that degree for something more than correcting people on the internet. I was saddened to see such intellect wasted here. Why not get off the internet and right a book? Perhaps FrankRedHot will read it and be lifted out of the shadow of ignorance.

P.S. I agree: Sarah Jessica Parker does have a foot for a face.
P.P.S. This will be my only comment on the subject. I'm prone to produce grammatical mistakes. The mistakes I might have made are yours for the correcting.

Dear walkerrunner,
Thanks for the witty, well-thought comments and the amusing comments produced in response to them.

Sincerely, V

This is an excellent release, and one of Steven Wilson's best, however I think it may not be even enough to be a five. There are certain songs that are absolutely astounding, but there are others that are just good/very good.
