rodrigo90: How to explain the metal genre to your crush

Drifter 09.11.17	k
Astral Abortis 09.11.17	I have never once tried to explain metal to someone who isn't interested. Been dating a lady for seven months now and metal music has never even come up in conversation because it has no relevance to our relationship. Don't make metal music your only defining quality.

Snake. 09.11.17	s m f h
DoofusWainwright 09.11.17	"positive" ^ well some of dem Indians made it.... ...only to die of smallpox a week later Bruce Dickinson couldn't make his lyrics scan for that bit
neekafat 09.11.17	"Yes, this album is metal, metal for the masses, if you are an old school metallica fan, to try to clarify that metallica was better before this album, will not improve your image, even though this is actually true." I don't understand this sentence but I love the attempt to make commas fit as every possible type of punctuation
KManoc1 09.11.17	Well done m8.
Allergist 09.11.17	Why would you explain this? Not a bad list or idea but metal is something that doesn't need explaining. It comes from within.
DoofusWainwright 09.11.17	metal is and has always been pussy repellent unless the pussy itself is repellent, in which case the double negative creates a force of attraction
Drifter 09.11.17	"Yes, this album is metal, metal for the masses, if you are an old school metallica fan, to try to clarify that metallica was better before this album, will not improve your image, even though this is actually true." It looks like unique wrote this sentence with all the commas it has
SCREAM! 09.11.17	"Been dating a lady for seven months now and metal music has never even come up in conversation because it has no relevance to our relationship." I mean, not saying you should be shoving it down her throat (obvs not) but given how important it is to you, I'm not sure avoiding the topic altogether is ideal either. You shouldn't feel like you have to altogether avoid topics you're passionate about.. Just my 2 cents anyway
rodrigo90 09.11.17	Corrected, neekafat.
butcherboy 09.11.17	ditch metal, buy a razor, wash, start listening to post-punk and dip your toes into a vast sea of art girls..
Astral Abortis 09.11.17	@SCREAM: it's not really avoiding it, it's just not relevant. I'd rather talk metal with any of my dozens of diehard friends where we can gain something from it. I'm not going to get anything out of a conversation with my SO by sitting her down and discussing the latest death metal album. It just has no place, and doesn't take a priority. I instead talk with her about things that do have relevance within the scope of our relationship. Just like I do with my friends who aren't into metal. Not that it doesn't mean you can't introduce people to new things or discuss things they don't like; it just needs to come up organically. and it my experience, it doesn't.
Egarran 09.11.17	I don't expect many genes passed on with this list.
SCREAM! 09.11.17	@Astral Fair enough, makes sense when you explain it that way. I guess it would just expect it to come up in passing here and there considering the impact it seems to have on you (didn't mean to say I thought you'd try and have long/deep conversations about it).
Astral Abortis 09.11.17	I mean I wear a lot of metal shirts and have a lot of metal posters and listen to a lot of metal music, but she never comments on it because I guess it just doesn't mean anything to her which is fair enough I mean if you've got nothing to say about it then why would you ever bring it up. It's just a non-issue, really.

rodrigo90 09.11.17	Not sure if I'm improving in this list making thing, but still better than my last one.
rodrigo90 09.11.17	But he is very slightly increasing his chances of getting laid. I almost there, but at the same time, so far away.
TheSonomaDude 09.11.17	not sure bro, i usually just show people metal and if they like it, cool. if not, whatever. my cousin did ask me to help him get into metal, and i used LoG and Pantera...fast forward 3 years later and now he jams Demilich and Cryptopsy, so I guess my plan worked.

starboystargirl 09.11.17	I "explain" metal to my girlfriend by just playing it for her, and if she likes it, great! Before we met, she had never heard of metal, and was pretty much a pop-head. Now she's a fan of Insomnium, Behemoth, Votum, and Dark Tranquility. Still trying to get her into Decapitated but just isn't feeling the grooves of Spheres of Madness. Maybe it's time I tell her I'm not feeling the grooves of our relationship.
sonictheplumber 09.11.17	lol
Flugmorph 09.11.17	"It's not rare that you find people who likes at least 1 pantera song, (unless you are a believer)..." What?

Well damn, her music taste got a downgrade then
Flugmorph 09.11.17	lol good one starboystargirl
butcherboy 09.11.17	rodrigo, girls who don't like metal seem to be a persistent problem for you.. maybe you should stop punching above your weight and just settle for a dye-job saggy-titted studded bracelet black lipstick girl who actually loves metal.. watch our for the clap etc.

InFlamesWeThrash666 12.15.17	a list on how to explain metal to cockatoos would be appreciated thnx
rodrigo90 12.15.17	I'd take the suggestion
rodrigo90 12.15.17	I'm still not sure if I should erase this or just leave it there.
artiswar 12.15.17	I knew it would be that Deathgasm clip as soon as I read the title. Isn't he holding an Anal Cunt CD at one point trying to explain it to her? Love the scene when the girl finally gets into metal but I can't find it
InFlamesWeThrash666 12.15.17	it's sputnik history now
KjSwantko 12.15.17	I literally bought the Black Album for a girl I dated years ago. She was a good sport and we listened to it in her car quite a bit for a while. I'm sure she isn't listening to it anymore though lol.
TheSonomaDude 12.15.17	The best way to explain metal to plebs is by punching them in the face while screaming the lyrics to any given Slayer song. if they dont get the idea then they are retarded.
sixdegrees 12.15.17	I would copy this list onto cue cards and read from them on a tinder date
Jasdevi087 12.15.17	nah what you have to do is ask them to spell icup
Jasdevi087 12.15.17	unless it's a boring song, then it would be a boring song that happens to be in 9/8
Nomos 12.15.17	I listen to music of every genre, but tilted heavily towards metal. My wife equates all metal to "Dragula" by Rob Zombie. If we're in a store with enough common sense to play some metal, or if she hears someone else's music somewhere and there's a screamed vocal, there's a 100% chance she will start making fun of screaming and start singing Dragula. Her favorite music is top-40 pop. It's a good thing I married her for other reasons. Usually I try not to make friends with people who don't have broad musical tastes.
Egarran 12.16.17	She has a driver's license?
