I leave the sticker on because that's what the black kids do.

Anyone who complains about this is gay.

Pimps will try to look like that. That is a good look.I recognize this doesn't have much to do with the subject at hand. The other people who have traditionally always worn baggy clothes are fat people.

Actually, baggy clothes in the modern era initially came into style with zoot suits, which was somewhat of a gangster thing. And remember a few years back when the style was to shave the sides of your head into that bowl cut? That was popular in the 1890s.

"Cecelia" by Simon and Garfunkel. Not the original version, but I saw a guy play it the other day.

Necro. Ween is the funniest intentionally funny band, yeah.

There hasn't been a major innovation in music
Nighthawk replied to Giuseppe Zangara's topic in Music
Innovations don't happen very often. -
None of them were good, really. I do like those cat eye glasses, though.

Senior citizens dress for comfort. If you dress like them, you can say that you do as well.

I think I'll rob somebody while wearing bellbottoms and spandex.
-
I like punching them and cutting them up with knives.

Andy Kaufman.
-
That is possible, actually. But not likely.
-
I tried.
-
Yeah, me too. This must be a generational thing. Chiklis on the Shield was fighting his Commish typecast only to get stuck again, apparently.
-
Because obviously pigs can swim.

He was trying to be funny.

I knew a girl from that high school that was such a bitch. She hated me so much I fucked her sister to piss her off.

Only one of those is a hip hop song, and only two of them have vocals. I suspected you might not know that, but coming out and saying it is better. You've now (aside from showing us all that you're talking out of your ass) said that sound is trash if it's not music, which was the crux of why you were wrong. The MF Doom song is the one hip hop song, and I'm betting you haven't heard it because it plays right into your hands and you probably would have made a bigger deal out of it. The "beat" is about three seconds from the theme of Scooby Doo Where Are You?, looped over and over again. An 11 year old could literally produce this beat in a few minutes, an example you've used, but in your case it was an exageration. And I'm showing you that it just doesn't matter. Strip away the vocals? Why, it was made for the vocals. That's like holding up a Picasso and saying "Strip away the paint and what do we have? Trash." You missed my point. Rap is a verbal artform, not a musical one. But you've then turned around and said it was crap. If rap is a verbal artform, why would the beat have any relevance to the statement "rap is crap"? If it is, in fact, not music, you shouldn't be comparing it to music, you should be comparing it to other hip hop beats (which everyone here agrees is fair). Thus: becomes a pointless and ignorant statement. Out of curiosity, who are the hip hop producers with talent you can count on one hand? I have now demonstrated that you, personally, are a fool, and don't understand your own argument. Feel free to continue the discussion, but I've shown it for what it is: you saying that rap sucks because you don't like it. That's fine, but wrapping it up with talk of musical theory doesn't lend it any credibility. Being pedantic won't hide the fact that you're wrong.

What, with those tiny little boxes? I think not.
-
Then again, I call every fat black guy "Uncle Phil".
-
Actually, I do refer to James Avery as "Uncle Phil", but I could buy him in another role, not that he gets them. Cause he was Shredder too, you know.
-
If asked what kind of guy wears those shirts, I'd say guys like you. Well, I wouldn't specifically think of you, but the person I described would be much like you. I could wear those if I wanted. There's not much I'd look bad in. I can't wear as many women's clothes as I'd like, unfortunately, though.
-
I never get this. Ed O'Neill remains a favorite actor for reasons quite unrelated to Al Bundy. Jim Varney as well, though he barely ever got to showcase it.

This fellow doesn't understand music because he doesn't understand art. Music is art, an extension of which is that it cannot be explained in a technical sense. First, understand that audio not being music is not synonomous with being bad or untalented. These songs demonstrate art in the face of simplicity, horror or literally nothing: MF Doom "Hey!" The Residents "Satisfaction" Diamanda Galas Schrei X Kid606 "Chart Topping Radio Hit" and so on. Are these things music? To ask is missing the point. In the face of these extremes of musical expression, hip hop production should cease to be a line of questioning. It should be so painfully obvious that only a fool wouldn't understand it. Sic. Also, art should not be measured by effort. Lovesexy is slightly worse than The Black Album, which is my favorite Prince album. My favorite song on that album is "Bob George".
