EDIT : Gilmour

[QUOTE=zeppelinfan2k3]If it's a pure synonym, what's the use of it being in the language twice?[/QUOTE]

Variation in speech and literature to prevent overuse of a word referring to a frequently used concept/object.

It;s about the name Superpeer. Agoraphobic Nosebleed? Who can go wrong with a name like that (anyone who listens to the band is who)

I know it's about the name, but I don't want to be associated with Power Metal.

29 now, Thanks ATM

Why is there no perfect synonym for say, white then?

There is, it's "right".







/racist comment of the night

[QUOTE=Simple Man]I like Nas and Eminem.[/QUOTE]

Nas is great (as you can tell from my placement of him), but Eminem...not so much. His first two albums were pretty good (and he was good on "Forgot About Dre"), and he has a great flow, but nowadays his materal all sounds tired. He's a bad producer but he refuses to admit it, and lyrically he's "meh" at best.

[QUOTE=Fast Fingers]The three on your list I really like. Kanye West, Ludacris, Madvillian, Aesop Rock, Mos Def and OutKast are the others I'm a big fan of.[/QUOTE]

I like Kanye West. [I]The College Dropout[/I] was flawed, inconsistent, and at times self-indulgent (but in the end, it was great), but he's a great producer and on TCD we can see that Kanye truly is brilliant. Kanye's got a lot of potential. Once he gets his head on straight we could see some classics from him.

Outkast...man, I knew I was forgetting someone. You can put them at #10 and drop Ghostface.

Mos Def is solid, but I only have one of his albums, and Ludacris is fairly inconsistent.

[QUOTE=magicbus]DN you listen to any MF Doom or Tek9?[/QUOTE]

You mean Tech N9ne or whatever? I like what I've heard.

Im a 'lil john fan. Buts thats probably only cause i know jack about rap.

The closest thing to rap I like would be Bob Marley, which isn't close at all. I've tried getiing into it a few times. I guess it isn't for me.

[QUOTE=88_Fingers_Joe]Im a 'lil john fan. Buts thats probably only cause i know jack about rap.[/QUOTE]

I hate Lil' Jon.

Yeeeyahhhhhh!!!

[QUOTE=Disconnection Notice]You mean Tech N9ne or whatever? I like what I've heard.[/QUOTE]

Yea I don't know how to spell it. I decided I don't know enough about him to start a consistent conversation, but I do like his stuff.

[QUOTE=zeppelinfan2k3]Why is there no perfect synonym for say, white then?[/QUOTE]

Because there wasn't someone that woke up one day and decided to make up pure synonyms for frequently used things. Language consists of evolution and coincidence.

Besides, colours have always been a special case. There's a whole system behind language and colour, I don't feel like going into detail though.

I was just explaining the apparition of pure synonyms there, in that particular post, because you inquired it of me so helplessly. I wasn't stating an absolute law, because, of course, there are no absolute laws in language.

[QUOTE=magicbus]Yea I don't know how to spell it. I decided I don't know enough about him to start a consistent conversation, but I do like his stuff.[/QUOTE]

I feel the same way.

Yeah, definitely. I don't like his new material so much. I love the slim shady LP though, probably my favourite Hip Hop album.

Oh man.

F[size=2]u[/size]ck him.

Hey Superpeer what's the definition of a pure synonym?

[QUOTE=Disconnection Notice]I hate Lil' Jon.[/QUOTE]

Probably why i said i dont know anything about rep. :rolleyes:

I got a new mouse today, Logitech MX510, for my gaming. **** its responsive.

[QUOTE=Superpeer]Yeah, definitely. I don't like his new material so much. I love the slim shady LP though, probably my favourite Hip Hop album.[/QUOTE]

In his first two records when he was just an angry white guy taking shots at everybody and when he was working with Dre, he was great. But now he's run out of things to take shots at and he's apparently abandoned Dre.

[QUOTE=Superpeer]Blah blah blah[/QUOTE]
We'll call it a tie.

[QUOTE=thickasabrick]Hey Superpeer what's the definition of a pure synonym?[/QUOTE]

Eh, two words that have the exact same denotation and the exact same connotation, id est, they mean exactly the same and can be used in the same situations.

They're very rare though. What common folk call 'synonym' isn't actually a genuine synonym, but the term can be handy to use sometimes, but strictly speaking it isn't 100% correct.

Woman.

Could somebody please explain to me the difference between rap and hip-hop. I know abosutly nothing about either. Even less than you, Joe. I'm sure of it.

[QUOTE=EddieVanHalen769]Could somebody please explain to me the difference between rap and hip-hop. I know abosutly nothing about either. Even less than you, Joe. I'm sure of it.[/QUOTE]
There's a difference?

For me, every time I hear Eminems newest single, and I automatically think it sucks. But if I wait a few years and hear it again, I find it quite entertaining. I'm not sure why, I'm just like that with a lot of newer music, it takes a long time to grow on me.

edit- If you wanna hear real rap, listen to Bob Dylan, sometime's his songs get to the point where he's trying to sing so fast he just starts talking. Subterranean Homesick Blues or Leopard-skin Pillbox Hat are rap at it's finest. ;) Those are some dope rhymes.

Yah, maybe i do know slightly more than you.

As far as I can tell, there is no difference.

[QUOTE=jpjrulestheworld]There's a difference?[/QUOTE]
I've heard there is. I could be wrong though.
Edit: Saw disconection's post. Thank you. :)

No, your gf is better than you are in bed...threesome?

[QUOTE=88_Fingers_Joe]Good job.[/QUOTE]

So what if I do?

Besides, my girlfriend isn't *that* young.

I love some of the verses in Mr. Tambourine Man; the imagry is so rapid-fire that it leaves your head spinning

Lol, how much older than her are you?

[QUOTE=Disconnection Notice]As far as I can tell, there is no difference.[/QUOTE]

I always thought that Rap was the style of vocals and Hip Hop was the music.
