Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye

That question looks more like a hint at apprehension than it does curiosity. That's completely understandable. I mean my god, you should have seen the trouble I went through trying to mold Frigid Soul to my image. A real heartbreaker that was. Simply, in order to become your own man living in the realm of Tack worship, you must first endeavour to become Tack. You must resolve yourself to the ideals I lay out and adopt the Board wear that I adopt. At this point I want you to take a deep breath, save your avatar and signature and copy onto your person my avatar and signature. That is the first, and easily the hardest, step that you must take.

Memorandum RE: TheBigSwigg wishing to emulate Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye Dear TheBigSwigg, The first thing you must do is work to adopt my most obvious message board image. You must carry my avatar, title and signature as your own. Of course this can be problematic for 'boarders who feel that image should not make the man, but somethings just have to be done for the greater good of your social standing. To make life even easier, you can just take the links from my avatar and signature for your own new setup. One important note before we continue. You must keep links intact! I cannot stress this enough. Those aren't just grim, goofy and gorgeous pics I carry around...they are portals to other realms of knowledge that must be maintained! Since I understand that you are a truly unique (and special!) individual, I will allow you the option of either keeping your existing member name or adopting a name that closely resembles mine. "Tribute" names are also acceptable ie: Thumbtack4:20 or TackPwns 3:16. NOTE: Since this memo is being displayed on a public website for all to see, I would like to request that a moderator help my young friend achieve these ends. I would be most grateful if someone could help him along. Once you have completed this first task, report back to me via this thread at which time I will decide when the next time for us to re-convene will be. These are major life decisions that you are making right now, but upon writing your name on the contract you have committed to bettering yourself and your community. I'm very proud of you for taking this step and I know that soon enough everyone else will be aswell. Thank you. Truly, Red Hot Thumbtack In The Eye.

Pretty bold fashion statement. But if marketed propery it could become quite the thing for people (generally goths) who wish to create a mytique for themselves.

You've made the right choice. You'll see.

I'm telling you kid, you stick with me and things will start going your way around here.

Firefox is totally brainless to set up. when you install it (looks very similar to straight IE) and use a new function, a popup comes up that will show you how to set it up. Easy as pie. I'll never go back.

Well I'm right here, but I'm neither of them. But I'll be your daddy for a day.

Meh, he'll get more bored doing something else one day and then the boredom of this board will actually bring him back.

A winner is....me

I pretty much hear them all at some point along the line, and that includes nightwish. No interest in them either, but thanks.

This isn't even a wrestling thing for me, dude took three shots in the neck and spine to save a rape victim. He should get the utmost respect. I'm sure the wrestling community will take care of him.

I was gonna give something to Agent to bribe him into a banning for UJM. Now I don't have to. And he got banned. The real winner of this thread is me.

vote Bush

Good thing I'm a communist

I really hope that there's some sort of bizarre CE in joke embedded in this thread somewhere that I just can't find.

It's gonna be tomorrow in about 21.5 hours at this rate unless Frigid takes it easy on the bugging.

No.

None of the shit that's in there that isn't wanted anywhere else isn't even wanted in there.

People with numbers in their name are assholes. The AIM chat is ------> thataway fuckers

Yes. Yes it is.

For black metal especially, the harsh (generally) high pitched scream is based on the death metal theory that the voice acts as another instrument in the band. The high picthed scream comes originally with the idea that it is the expression of the pain and despair and hatred etc of life in 'the mortal realm' which again goes to the Stimulation of Fantasy point. Some (mythology based for the most part) bands use it, for example, as a representation of the oskerei which is the mythological "Wild Ride" where the spirits of the dead in Germanic lore come to the mortal world at night and basically terrorize the living by raping and pillaging and burning. All the good stuff and I'm hoping I remember that properly. That's about my preferred interpretation of it anyway. As far as not understanding what the vocalists are saying, it get exponentially easier after listening to various bands over time. Unless they are doing something really off kilter with their voice, I can pick up the jist of what any of them are saying.

Any real hatred I show towards that brand of metal is simply well amplified black metal elitism. I just don't make a point to listen to the stuff since I have very little interest in the style. Manowar, Rhapsody, Hammerfall are three of the most uninteresting and cliched mounds of Heavy Metal mistake I've ever heard. Although a bit of extra credit to Rhapsody for their genius shred man Luca. Just so much interchangeability in a genre that desperately needs originality for it's acts to really stand out. And yes I know that there is a lot of the same thing in Black Metal, but they can get away with it far more than Power can. Black Metal, as an art, is more about the feeling and atmosphere and introspection. They happened to find a formula for that which works the best "to stimulate the fantasy of mortals" to quote Varg Vikernes. Power Metal is storytelling. And i don't like the hear the same glorious battle told by a dozen bands in (TO MY EARS) a far-too-similar-way-for-it's-own-good kind of way. I would never try to knock down the guitar of Jon Schaeffer any sooner than I would try to bring Bruce Dickenson or Hansi Kursch's vocals down etc. The long and short of it is that I don't generally enjoy the tools that Power Metal bands employ to get their message across. I hardly hate it or wish they would all disappear.

We've discussed Putrid Pile before. As far as the experimentation with more cheddary realms of metal, it's only because FS won't leave me alone about it so I figured I'd better do something about it. I'm about to fully recover via Black No.1'ing myself with my Satyricon/Enslaved split grim as all get out cd.
