What the fuck is the internet?

Who's This Thread is Ghey? Obviously a fan of BRUJ0's...but is it a side account of an established poster (which I have always assumed), or just some random lurker who can't post any useful content of its own?

I know very little of Warren Zevon. At the surface, he sounds like a fairly witty yet strange pop musician. Everyone knows "Werewolves of London" at least. I've read some lyrics and a couple people's glowing appraisals. I'll reserve judgment until I hear some stuff, even if it's not going to be something I'm pursuing at the moment.

Red or White?

 

I'll assume you're talking wine here. I rarely drink the stuff, and when I do, it's cheap bum wines for nostalgia purposes. I'll say red.

 

Rigel=Nigel, with an R. It's not really a name over here, either. My parents were hippies, and naturally had to choose something astronomical. I've gotten butcherings like "Regal" "Ridgel" "Rye-Gull" "Wriggle"...it goes on..substitute teachers hated me in school.

 

Considering my parents' backgrounds, and the time period in which I was conceived, I could've gotten much worse.

will that 23-year-old stripper who had her twat in my face thursday night ever finish school and fulfill her dream of being an interior decorator, or will she become trapped in the sex and drugs and start doing porn for cocaine and end up ODing in the bathroom before she's 30?

She'll do both.

Speaking of strippers, Agent, one time, whilst receiving a lap dance, I noticed some slight stretch marks on the stripper's otherwise flawless person. These marks were just the right indicator that she very likely had a child.

 

Now, my question to you: Would you let thoughts of her having a kid distract you from enjoying her practice her admitedly rather seedy profession? Personally, I don't a judge a woman who strips to make money—you do what you gotta do to live—but I'd rather not think that this woman who's waving her luscious ebony dumper in my face has a kid. In spite of the whole "MILF"-phenomona, mothers really shouldn't be hot.

gtd, I'd really have to see the stripper in question to make a decision that long term. I can see in a person's face if they're nuts. Just using probability and an educated guess, she'll strip for the rest of the summer, then someplace will start talking about hiring for christmas season help, and she'll get a day job in retail, since she's already probably pretty good looking and personable and not shy at all. She'll balance both for a while, then she'll finally leave stripping when the sleazery becomes too much. After five years of bouncing around between...three jobs and 4 boyfriends, she'll get pregnant, and take that opportunity to hit school again, all while fleecing the sucker that knocked her up. She'll change her major to nursing, due to the job availability and money, raise the kid with the asshole boyfriend/fiance (can't quite commit) until he's 4, then they'll split after some drunken cheating/fighting that lasts for half a winter, and they'll share custody after he gets his stuff in order just to spite her. He'll get into another long term relationship, only cheat on that woman with the now single mother/former stripper working thanklessly as an LPN, and keeping a nice house. She'll finally get satisfied with herself when the boy does ok after college, getting an office job with an american auto manufacturer. She'll get a new vehicle for her 50th birthday, which she proudly flaunts in front of her neighbors and her nice new boring husband she'll pick up when she's...42.

 

So no, she won't become an interior decorator.

The prospect of a stripper having a child would not distract me from a lapdance, considering most of them are buying diapers and beer with their tips. I look at strippers in a really distant and objectifying manner, though. They're basically there to entertain me, and if it takes a kid to pump your tits up an extra size and give you some more to the hips...hey, it's alright.

 

Mothers really aren't hot, in the manner that single kidless girls can be hot. I can't abide getting involved with or even dating a woman with a child, but I'll definitely screw a couple. At the same time, the single unspoiled girl doesn't have the same jaded worldly knowledge that I find incredibly sexy.

 

Just enjoy the bouncing, and tuck a buck.

This is not the first time a conversation involving the works of the late Warren Zevon has disappointed me greatly.

No, because I'm on a dialup. You might be able to send me a copy of it, though, but I'll probably hate it.

Agent, what's the difference between black metal and doom metal and power metal. Plus, any other types of metal I have not mentioned here.

 

Also, are grindcore and death metal interchangable terms. allmusic seems to suggest this when you look up Napalm Death.

Oh christ, heavy metal subgenres.

 

Now, this is like explaining different brands and types of cigarettes and tobacco to a nonsmoker, but here's a quick overall, with some examples.

 

Power metal is that Iron Maiden/Iced Earth shit with the high soaring vocals, gallopy drums, duelling masturbatory solos and mythological topics all the time. This can get even worse with "Majestic" metal, which is really something only toyed with by Blind Guardian and bands of that ilk. I can't stand any of it. It's the Star Trek of metal.

 

Death metal is another "greater" subgenre in the respect that it's often blended with other ones. Hallmarks are growling/screaming lyrics that people complain about, chuggy guitars with lots of minor progressions and double bass everywhere.

This runs from cheesy gore-type Death Metal like Lividity, Putrid Pile, Cannibal Corpse for a more well-known example. The appeal is generally that of a cheesy horror flick.

 

Those that dare branch away from limb-chopping usually gravitate towards political injustice, warfare, revenge, religion, drugs, and satan. Dying Fetus and Morbid Angel are two excellent brutal death bands that don't rely on "Oozing Vaginal Discharge" (A lividity track)

 

There's also Melodic Death, but that's such a splinter group..Basically death metal with singing. It barely works, and there's always other influences there. Some Arch Enemy, and some Iced Earth, I guess...I don't go for it.

 

Grind has a LOT more punk/hardcore influence, and is really scenester-y. Blast beats into groove breakdowns, sampling, speed, aggression...think Dillinger Escape Plan, Nasum, Cephalic Carnage, Agoraphobic Nosebleed...your Flying Luttenbachers would probably come closest to this, judging by your descriptions. It's not totally interchangeable with death metal, although the two often influence each other heavily.

 

Thrash is the 80's-dominated rip n chug balls out "RRRRAAARRGGGH WE'RE METAL MUSIC" kinda thing, like Slayer. Basically, when you think of some random nameless stereotype metal band in your head, you're getting a thrash band, probably.

 

Black Metal is primarily European..think Immortal, Emperor, Mayhem, Venom, Bathory..lots of corpsepaint, orchestration, screaming and shreiking, nihilism, clothing with spikes and studs, thin sickly guitar riffs and no bass support...Some people dig it majorly, I like a few select bands and can't stand the image.

 

There's all kinds of -cores out there, too. Most of them are just made up by the band for kicks. For instance, Cephalic Carnage might be Colorado Hydro-Grind, but no one else is, dig?

 

really, don't worry your pretty little head about it unless you're listening to the genre.

 

Were you to suddenly check out a metal band, it'd probably have to be something grindy. It's the opposite of progressive, if that's alluring at all.

Does the fact that I've only heard of 2 of those bands mean that I am lame?

And why did Soss wish for a Dids-free TSM. I'm awesome, dammit.

Since Agent didn't cover doom metal, I'll field that one

 

Doom metal takes most of its influence from the grandpa of all metal bands, Black Sabbath. Music style involves slow plodding drums and riffs, with vocals being either growly-death or clean baritone/bass male vocals along with the occasional mixed-in female vocals (growly male vocals and clean female vocals combined is referred to as "Beauty and the Beast" style). Lyrical style is gloomy and usually filled with dark imagery and despair.

 

Notable bands include Candlemass, Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride and older Anathema. Of all the big metal subgenres, I would say doom comprises the smallest portion of the overall metal family (probably because metal is most associated with blazing fast guitars and shrill vocals, which is the complete opposite of this)
