[QUOTE=Dies Irae;16488402]i think its funny that people care so much about amit's posts[/QUOTE]

i think this kind of response is funny

are we supposed to go about a message board not caring about what other people post, just posting monologues all the time? is the whole board supposed to be a big "what are you listening to now" thread? i dont get that mentality. i post here to post

That looks like Jack Chick for barnyard animals for some reason

I'm terrible at coming up with captions but I must say that even jackrabbits are embarrassed by Cosby sweaters

man if that rabbit rapes someone, she is going to be walking with a limp

[QUOTE=Pete;16488398]for someone who thinks theyre the end-all be-all of musical authority, i think its funny that you cant see a correclation between western classical music and metal[/quote]

that's because it's a very tenuous one

i've already proven this so maybe you should go back and attack that instead of crying

[QUOTE=Pete;16488398]especially since youre like "lol wester music is all the same, i listen to ethnically diverse music" most of the time, and here you're doing a complete 180[/quote]

lol what

[QUOTE=Pete;16488398]also, what, you're in touch with black culture? aren't you indian or something? what, exactly, have [i]you[/i] done to prove that youre so diverse, aside from name dropping (which you give other people sh!t for doing)[/quote]

silly old pete doesn't understand that culture and race have nothing in common

but what do you want me to tell you about

the variety of bands and groups i've worked with or what exactly

[QUOTE=Pete;16488398]youre very very bad at making points amit, you have to amit that[/QUOTE]

the irony is strong with this one

i wish that moltenlava guy would come back; he was actually at least somewhat capable of holding an interesting discussion

foreverendeared 07-15-2008 10:01 AM

you can't touch moltenlava. that guy is the f*ckin man

Amit 07-15-2008 10:07 AM

yeah him and steerpike make good conversation

RouteOne 07-15-2008 10:28 AM

Please, everyone please; stfu.

foreverendeared 07-15-2008 10:30 AM

including you?

**** off non-elite

evidently not

[QUOTE=1338 h4x0r;16488376]I have one

Regardless, that's about as relevant as bringing my taste in music in a thread about why post-modernism is ****, which is what led you down this rabbit hole in the first place[/QUOTE]

You're gay? I don't care i just didn't know.

[QUOTE=Amit;16489114]that's because it's a very tenuous one

i've already proven this so maybe you should go back and attack that instead of crying[/quote]what is with this incessant talk about crying (dies irae was on about that too) i am just making bacon

yes metal isnt neoclassical but i mean, to deny the fact that certain metal songwriter takes inspiration from classical music is impossible to refute - if they themselves claim they do, it's fact.
[quote]lol what[/quote]i'm just saying you have this way about you where everything is about proving everyone else wrong, so one day it's "western music is all the same" and the next its "nothing is anything like anything else" just for the sake of stirring up debate. which is a good thing though, because debate is what forums feed off of.

[quote]silly old pete doesn't understand that culture and race have nothing in common[/quote]well, technically, [i]you[/i] were the one who didn't understand that to begin with, what with attacking some users whiteness. i'm just glad i helped you see the irony (which i hope you do) by using your kind of racial prejudice.

[quote]but what do you want me to tell you about

the variety of bands and groups i've worked with or what exactly[/quote]
idk but wouldn't that be a perfect example of name dropping if you did that? aren't we very opposed to that, idk?

[quote]the irony is strong with this one[/quote]
this one, however, you'll have to explain. i dont think i made a single irrelevant point. like, not once did i mention my girlfriend or social life or high school popularity or anything.

wait. does that mean i am doing it wrong?

[QUOTE=Amit;16489114]silly old pete doesn't understand that culture and race have nothing in common[/QUOTE]

:lol:

OK, then, please tell me what sub-Saharan African and northern Indian culture have in common

Besides the immigration of Asian laborers to certain countries formerly under British control—which is a very recent phenomenon—I can't think of anything else

Cat got your tongue, white boy?

[QUOTE=Pete;16489412]yes metal isnt neoclassical but i mean, to deny the fact that certain metal songwriter takes inspiration from classical music is impossible to refute - if they themselves claim they do, it's fact.[/quote]

when you copy instrumentation or melodies, you aren't taking inspiration from classical music

i've covered this multiple times in both threads

[QUOTE=Pete;16489412]i'm just saying you have this way about you where everything is about proving everyone else wrong, so one day it's "western music is all the same" and the next its "nothing is anything like anything else" just for the sake of stirring up debate. which is a good thing though, because debate is what forums feed off of.[/quote]

i never said western music is all the same so i'm not really sure what you're talking about

[QUOTE=Pete;16489412]well, technically, [i]you[/i] were the one who didn't understand that to begin with, what with attacking some users whiteness. i'm just glad i helped you see the irony (which i hope you do) by using your kind of racial prejudice.[/quote]

i attack people's whiteness because it's hilarious; not because it's logically sound to do so

[QUOTE=Pete;16489412]idk but wouldn't that be a perfect example of name dropping if you did that? aren't we very opposed to that, idk?[/quote]

well you're asking for proof but you don't want any proof i am very confused

[QUOTE=Pete;16489412]this one, however, you'll have to explain. i dont think i made a single irrelevant point. like, not once did i mention my girlfriend or social life or high school popularity or anything.[/quote]

i think you have to realize that not everything i say is serious nor everything i say is facetious

many of users understand this how come you and 1338 can't

i don't consider myself wholly part of either culture so i'm not sure who you're referencing

when it comes to all the cultures i am in contact with, i'm more of a detached anthropologist instead of a dedicated subscriber to a single culture

1338 h4x0r 07-15-2008 12:01 PM

[QUOTE=Amit;16489438]i don't consider myself wholly part of either culture so i'm not sure who you're referencing[/QUOTE]

Wait

Are you half-black or something?

no

why?

i am

iarescientists 07-15-2008 12:05 PM

what is so funny about calling a white person white i do not understand

Amit 07-15-2008 12:06 PM

[QUOTE=iarescientists;16489484]what is so funny about calling a white person white i do not understand[/QUOTE]

it's hilarious because so many white people react so strongly to it

iarescientists 07-15-2008 12:07 PM

no they don't

1338 h4x0r 07-15-2008 12:08 PM

A name like Amit most likely belongs to a northern Indian, so it's pretty funny to watch a slightly darkened white boy claim to have a stronger connection to black culture than anyone else here.

Russell 07-15-2008 12:08 PM

lol white people lol

iarescientists 07-15-2008 12:08 PM

white people is crazy

yeah eminem has no connection to black culture lol what a crazy guy

it's depressing that in the 21st century, race and culture are still perceived to be so inexorably tied together

Pete 07-15-2008 12:09 PM

[QUOTE=Amit;16489438]when you copy instrumentation or melodies, you aren't taking inspiration from classical music

i've covered this multiple times in both threads[/quote]
but when you write original arrangements and melodies inspired by classical music, you are taking inspiration from classical music. and basically, if someone says "i wrote this inspired by classical music" you cant factually say theyre wrong
[quote]i never said western music is all the same so i'm not really sure what you're talking about[/quote]
im sure you did, youre just being facetious amit
[quote]i attack people's whiteness because it's hilarious; not because it's logically sound to do so[/quote]
a-HAH! pete - 1, amit - 0 :cool:
[quote]well you're asking for proof but you don't want any proof i am very confused[/quote]
no, i was asking what you have provided on these here forums that couldnt just be dismissed as name dropping. since you play that card a lot yourself, i mean. i think youll find its very hard to "prove" anything this way, which is why i think you maybe should lighten up on trying to call people on their sh!t all the time, assuming theyre inferior to you. i mean, for all i know they might very well be, but on an internet message board we're all worth the same, its the beauty of internet anonymity.

[quote]i think you have to realize that not everything i say is serious nor everything i say is facetious

many of users understand this how come you and 1338 can't[/quote]
as with the last quote, the responses you give me are pretty much questions i want you to ask yourself

i thought you knew me by new, at least a little, after all we've posted with each other for years :(

1338 h4x0r 07-15-2008 12:09 PM

that stuff white people like site is pretty funny

and so is you saying European whites have no place to appreciate or even know about black African culture

[QUOTE=Amit;16489507]yeah eminem has no connection to black culture lol what a crazy guy[/QUOTE]

I hang out with large groups of South Africans and have been mistaken for a Boer

Amit 07-15-2008 12:12 PM

[QUOTE=1338 h4x0r;16489509]that site is pretty funny

and so is you saying European whites have no place to appreciate or even know about black African culture[/QUOTE]

African culture != African American culture (which was the original culture in question)

but you might be so ignorant that you actually think they're one and the same

i mean you did mention fela kuti in response to chris brown so you aren't exactly inspiring a lot of confidence in me atm

iarescientists 07-15-2008 12:12 PM

[QUOTE=Amit;16489507]yeah eminem has no connection to black culture lol what a crazy guy

it's depressing that in the 21st century, race and culture are still perceived to be so inexorably tied together[/QUOTE]

yes exactly so i don't get why you get to be so in tune with black culture when you make fun of any white people talking about black culture.

1338 h4x0r 07-15-2008 12:13 PM

[QUOTE=Amit;16489517]African culture [b]>[/b] African American culture[/QUOTE]

fix'd

but tbh I thought you would have known that James Brown, et al. were a huge influence on afrobeat and soukous

I'm disappointed

Amit 07-15-2008 12:14 PM

[QUOTE=iarescientists;16489519]yes exactly so i don't get why you get to be so in tune with black culture when you make fun of any white people talking about black culture.[/QUOTE]

i only make fun of white people who talk about the wrong black culture

[QUOTE=1338 h4x0r;16489526]African culture > African American culture[/QUOTE]

also here's another reason

but then again i'm not some gormless ethnocentrist

Pete 07-15-2008 12:15 PM

[QUOTE=Amit;16489529]i only make fun of white people who talk about [B]the wrong black culture[/B][/QUOTE]
