wait when you were like eww American Football

did you mean eww i don't like football, or eww i don't like that band?

eww I don't like American Football. I just don't understand it as a sport, it's like somebody purposely went out to make a game, that was like Rugby, but without all the elements which made it work.

oh i thought you meant the band american football.

haha

[QUOTE=Interstate]Shall I watch Scarface (1932 original version) or Friday Night Lights?

I broke the trend. Oh shi[/QUOTE]

Or, shall I get dressed or laze around in my boxers for the rest of the day after not getting home after midnight last night?

F[FONT="Verdana"]u[/FONT]ck, I don't even need an answer to that one :cool:

Btw, I asked the girl at her birthday if she wanted to go out with me. For anyone keeping score, she said it was too soon. I told her I was always available in case she changed her mind, and she hugged me and said thanks. I think we got off on good terms.

What an odd post. Purple monkey diswasher.

In 6th grade my friend and I were going to start a band called the Purple Monkey Dishwashers. We were so cool.

I would have slapped him

me too

me 3

1) I just realized that you can't spell "democracy" without "emo." well then.

2) Good job posting in that DEP thread, pixies. Show them how we roll :cool:

3) This is just an interest check, would anyone be favorable to the idea of Alt/Indie's own top 100 guitarists poll? I think it would be a neat idea to give some appreciation to guitarists in a genre where there are no shredding virtuosos, so the focus would be entirely on their songwriting and creative abilities.

However, I recognize a lot of problems coming from this one. Mainly, invasions from people who don't usually post in A/I to vote for the more famous alt. guitarists like Kurt Cobain, John Frusciante, etc. or someone from the fratboy genres like John Mayer or Jack Johnson. Ugh, it could get ugly.

So those are the pros/cons of the deal. What do you think?

Omar would probably win.

With this many TMV haters on the forum? Well, I guess there's that "silent majority" thing going on that always leads to unrealistic poll results. I thought the winners would be either Frusciante, Cobain, or maybe Johnny Greenwood. Either way, not MY favorites, that's for sure!

it would be cool if only people who've posted in the a/i forum could vote

that would be a cool feature to have, but i dunno how one would go about doing that.

I went skydiving on Saturday. :cool:


It was a tandem jump from 14,000 ft.


And holy crap it was the most awesome thing ever. I recommend you all do it if you get the opportunity and/or balls.

That's one of my "things to do before I die" things. I'm only sixteen, so I'll have lots of time to grow a pair and actually do it.

But seriously, that must have been such an adrenaline rush.

I want to skydive one day.

Yeah, it was. The couple of seconds right before leaving the plane, and the first couple of seconds of freefall especially. And it took ages afterwards to settle down from the whole deal.

My girlfriend and I are going to do it for our 4 year anniversary.

Sorry guys. I might be banned tonight.

why

i dunno.

make it public and just disregard votes from people you don't like

[QUOTE=The Tway]make it public and just disregard votes from people you don't like[/QUOTE]

That's always one plan. I guess being a mod in this forum will give me a more totalitarian control over any possible competitions, but it doesn't guarantee that everyone won't be disappointed with the results.

I say we shouldn't have polls at all, but decide it through a meeting and deliberation of the best minds of Alt/Indie. Or we could be like [i]Rolling Stone[/i] and just give the top spots to the most popular ones!

As much as I like John Frusciante (almost entirely for his solo work) it would kind of dissapoint me to see him get a lot of votes because most people would just be voting for him because of his stuff with RHCP, and they aren't really alt/indie, imo.

Anyway, I just realized that my printer prints at the same tempo as the song Cabezon by the Red House Painters.

I also realized that I hate AOL.

That'd be cool.

Or we could just do the nominations that way?

[QUOTE=pixiesfanyo]That'd be cool.

Yeah maybe. Get together an elite group (or shadowy cabal) of Alt/Indie's finest minds and crank out a hundred or so names.

just have it so anyone with a '06 user name can't submit a 25 guitarist recommendation sheet.

and we should do top 50, because 100 is gay.

and you ahve to have 50 posts in the communtiy thread :)

dei needs 14 now.

Finally overtook NPC for 3rd, Wanker & Iai = next.

13?!

you know i can delete all of them, dei. just post normally and you'll probably get 50 by tomorrow.

besides it was just a suggestion.
