As I recall you went driving drunk the other day.

As I recall, there's a saying that goes, "there's a first time for everything." Unlike people who sit in their room all day and say, "I'm not doing this because I think it's pointless", I put myself on the line and try everything once - twice if I like it - so I can say, "Hey, I took a chance and did that." Then I can actually make an informed opinion on the matter, unlike other people who form their opinions on the heresay of others.

Alright, so by that logic, no one can condemn murder unless they've tried it first. Or theft. Or basically anything. Maybe shooting heroin isn't so bad, I've never tried it so how would I know, right? Personally, I don't feel the need to try something to feel like I have the right to say something against it. Where I come from that's borderline hypocrisy. But then, you're right. I'm sure it's just heresay that driving drunk is dangerous. There's no actual evidence to back that up.

You can euphemize it to make yourself a hero in your own mind, but doing so is all the more pitiable in mine. Yeah man, you really put yourself on the line to experiment with your body. I idolize you. I wish I tried everything before forming any sort of opinion because my experience is more important than facts and statistics.

Yeah, lets form all our opinions on statistics that are conjured up from a census that doesn't actually contain even half of the actual population of the country. Statistics are worthless IMO.

Also, I'm not sure where you derive your definition of the term 'hypocrisy', but I fail to see how it's hypocritical to be able to say, "Yeah, I did morphine (as an example) and I can say it's definitely not something worth trying twice and I wouldn't recommend doing it once because these are the effects I experienced.." I consider than an informed, valuable opinion. If someone wants to still try said item anyway, that's their choice because like I said, there's a first time for everything. Everyone has a different experience.

Just because someone died from driving drunk, does that mean I'm going to? Maybe, maybe not. Most likely not, since I'm a careful driver anyway. Does that mean I [i]should have[/i] driven drunk? Of course not, but at least now I can say I know what it's like to perform that activity under those conditions. Driving under adverse conditions just makes you a better driver in the long run anyway. You achieve your best after performing at your worst.

Having been in the army, I've been around plenty of people that could be considered murderers. A lot of them, however, came away from their situations with a new sense of value towards the lives of others having taken lives themselves. Shooting heroin? No thanks, I'm squeamish around needles. However, I've taken chronic laced with heroin before so I have an idea of the effects. Also, I take a synthetic opiate called Methadone on occassion which has the same effects of heroin and speed anyway so I have an understanding and respect for the effects brought on by those narcotics. Knowing what I know from my experience helps me understand people that actually have problems with those substances to better deal with/help them later on.

I'm not euphemising anything, I'm stating facts. I know the effects first-hand, so I have an informed opinion. There's nothing hypocritical about that.

This is kind of pointless. People will do what they want to do, and that's that. I don't really dig it when other people are hurt because of it though.

So Hawthorne Height's new album has leaked, and I'm opting to give this band a second chance in case they pull a SOTY and actually release something good.

Iscariot 12-01-2005 03:39 AM

They won't. They're Hawthorne Heights. That name and the word 'good' don't belong in the same sentence.

Kif 12-01-2005 03:45 AM

OK, I'm on track 5 at the moment, and it isn't really that bad. I mean, there's less screaming now so they don't feel that generic in that area, but the guitar riffs still have that broody and dark "oh noes i need so slits my wrists" feel. It's better than their other album, I don't know if I would call it good yet though.

Iscariot 12-01-2005 03:49 AM

Meh, I won't waste any time/money on it.

I'm still stuck in a time warp and waiting for [b]Bush[/b] to get back together. :(

Your spelling and grammar makes me sick.

Puma 12-01-2005 08:42 AM

Holy crap, you continue to have some of the worst spelling I've ever seen hotcod. Jared, I really am not a fan of people driving drunk(I actually know of quite a few people who have been killed by drunk drivers or because they were riding with someone drunk.) I don't mind if you're just out to try things, but for your own sake and for the sake of others, I wouldn't advise you doing that anymore. And as far as this new Hawthorne Heights album goes, I'll see if I can get my hands on it, although my hopes for it are very, very low.

Edit: Actually I've searched as far as my very limited internet knowledge can take me and have failed to find it. Kif, can you point me in a direction of download or send it to me? If not I guess I'll just have to wait a bit and see if I can find it on SoulSeek. Man, you know I'm desperate for music when I'm trying to find a Hawthorne Heights album. That's bad.

You owned yourself by trying to imply that Blink 182 is a better band than Bush. The talent o' meter disagrees dramatically.

Go slap your chest and drool on yourself - I can't read half of what you just said.

However, I will say this - you said:

[quote]every one should be free to do what ever they like BUT only so long as that freedom dose not take away the freedom of others[/quote]

Did I take away anyone else's freedoms? No? Oh, ok. So shut the f[size=2]uck[/size] up and go get some kind of therapy for that stunningly obvious disability.

[quote=Puma]I wouldn't advise you doing that anymore.[/quote]

I didn't plan on it. Apparently when you do something once it becomes a chronic issue necessary of immediate treatment and/or retribution. At least that's what a lot of these little 14-year old kids seem to think. Well, Vince isn't 14, but he acts like it sometimes with his holier-than-thou judgemental bs.

I've been a mod for about...two months now, maybe? I dunno. Usually I stick to the bass forum, since I know all the users in there, but I occasionally post in The Pit or the hardcore/emo forum (I listen to screamo), but since I listen to a few pop-punk bands (Taking Back Sunday, Scary Kids Scaring Kids, The Descendants, etc.), I figure, why not post in the pop punk forum?

I hear you guys are almost as nice as we are in the bass forum, too. ;)
