[2017-2-17. : 5:00 am]  NudeRaider -- LanthanideLanthanide shouted: you should watch this John Oliver piece: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xecEV4dSAXE you made me stop listening to Tote Hosen.  [2017-2-17. : 4:58 am]  O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- LanthanideLanthanide shouted: you should watch this John Oliver piece: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xecEV4dSAXE if I'd had that, I could've been doing something more productive at work xD[2017-2-17. : 4:58 am] NudeRaider -- Ha, these are just so funny and silly http://i.imgur.com/tjGmpIS.jpg http://i.imgur.com/82JBnC3.jpg http://i.imgur.com/U9FEKTG.jpg http://i.imgur.com/4aETTi6.jpg http://i.imgur.com/SB2Cb0t.jpg[2017-2-17. : 4:57 am]  Lanthanide -- you should watch this John Oliver piece: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xecEV4dSAXE[2017-2-17. : 4:56 am] Lanthanide -- Sean Spicer defended Trump lying by saying they are "things that Trump believes"[2017-2-17. : 4:56 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I really wanted to bring up alternative facts, but since, as I said, I've been ignoring I don't know how memey that actually is and I didn't want to just fuel the argument xD[2017-2-17. : 4:55 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- LanthanideLanthanide shouted: sounds like he's tuned in to the alternative facts universe I think so too, but I've been ignoring it enough to not actually know what he's referring to[2017-2-17. : 4:55 am] Lanthanide -- well, people have protested stuff Trump has done - but that's because the things he's done are protest-worthy[2017-2-17. : 4:54 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- LanthanideLanthanide shouted: everyone is giving Trump a lot of leeway; if other politicians acted the way he does they'd get crucified my dad's argument was the opposite of this xD like "trump does something and people are in the street burning cars!"[2017-2-17. : 4:53 am] Lanthanide -- everyone is giving Trump a lot of leeway; if other politicians acted the way he does they'd get crucified[2017-2-17. : 4:52 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- also when obammur wants to change stuff people are like "OH GOD HE'S CHANGING THINGS EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE IN RUIN!", then those same people are like "Trump's changing things, just sit back and see how this plays out if we/you don't like it then it can change it when he leaves" and then decry those who have the same reactions but in reverse ;o[2017-2-17. : 4:44 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- oh, speaking of NZ, my dad was going on some pro-trump tirade like IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT THEN GO LOOK AT WHERE ELSE YOU COULD BE LIVING (referring to 3rd world/warring/whatever countries) and I was like "NZ is a thing. They seem alright."[2017-2-17. : 4:44 am] Lanthanide -- oh yeah, she called the interview a "sanctimonious little creep"[2017-2-17. : 4:42 am] Lanthanide -- as it turns out, the GE corn allegations were significantly overblown[2017-2-17. : 4:42 am] Lanthanide -- it was when a notable television interviewer 'ambushed' our prime minister on live TV about allegations around genetically modified corn[2017-2-17. : 4:42 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I saw ito n the list of -gates, but didn't read it because it wasn't funny[2017-2-17. : 4:41 am] Lanthanide -- also "-gate" can imply a dodgy situation or ongoing investigation of such, whereas "scandal" is drawing a conclusion that there is a problem[2017-2-17. : 4:40 am] Lanthanide -- it's easier to say "corngate" than it is to say "GE corn scandal" for example[2017-2-17. : 4:40 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- but everything has to have an outrageous buzzword as a name ;o[2017-2-17. : 4:39 am] NudeRaider -- LanthanideLanthanide shouted: -gate is such a stupid suffix better than a water- prefix tho  [2017-2-17. : 4:39 am] Lanthanide -- but it's not terribly surprising, since it's a single syllable, is a generally uncommon word and is easily distinguished from other words[2017-2-17. : 4:37 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- like if SEN were involved in some huge scandal, and we called it the "Staredit Network Scandal"[2017-2-17. : 4:36 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- the first -gate, other than the Watergate, was in 1976 ;o[2017-2-17. : 4:36 am] NudeRaider -- LoveLessLoveLess shouted: I am still mad that you don't understand. The lack of credit is love less. Which is SENs subtle way of giving credit. was my avatar the entire time on Maplantis, then it shut down and it was made an emote here, give me some credit man :lovel: or something[2017-2-17. : 4:35 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I didn't realizing suffixing scandals with -gate was so old[2017-2-17. : 4:28 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I do too sometimes because it was an item in the store that he paid for, and then people were just like LOL NOPE[2017-2-17. : 4:27 am] LoveLess -- I am still mad that was my avatar the entire time on Maplantis, then it shut down and it was made an emote here, give me some credit man :lovel: or something[2017-2-17. : 4:27 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- like you couldn't confuse that for classic rock or hip-hop or southern rock or whatever[2017-2-17. : 4:26 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I don't feel like alternative is a garbage bin, things that are alternative definitely are distinct from those that aren't ;o[2017-2-17. : 4:25 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- which makes sense, because a lot of things that are post-punk are still considered alternative xD[2017-2-17. : 4:23 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- "Alternative rock Stylistic origins Punk rock post-punk new wave hardcore punk"[2017-2-17. : 4:23 am] NudeRaider -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: FaRTy1billion you can't just put anything you can't put your finger on into alternative. It has a direction of its own. Don't declassify it to "musical garbage bin" pls. apparently I should've said 'denigrate' instead of declassify[2017-2-17. : 4:23 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- according to wikipedia, alternative itself is a derivative of punk rock [2017-2-17. : 4:22 am] Lanthanide -- it just collects all sorts of random crap that doesn't obviously fit elsewhere[2017-2-17. : 4:22 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- like you either list every possible genre, or you call it "alternative"[2017-2-17. : 4:22 am] Lanthanide -- same thing happens in large programming projects where you name a file "common"[2017-2-17. : 4:22 am] Lanthanide -- well that's what you get when you name a genre as literally "not that other genre"[2017-2-17. : 4:21 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I feel like it's because at that point all of the genres are so intertwined that you can't really pick one out (as evident by the wikipedia list)[2017-2-17. : 4:21 am] NudeRaider -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: I think that's what the alternative genre is for xD you can't just put anything you can't put your finger on into alternative. It has a direction of its own. Don't declassify it to "musical garbage bin" pls. [2017-2-17. : 4:19 am] NudeRaider -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: also later punk styles don't sound anything like punk, like emo ;o I guess that's the problem. I feel like there should be an own (sub-)genre for this kind of stuff. But since there isn't you can only try to fit it into genres that aren't really that. Anyways, I'd say it has traits of rock (most), punk and maybe alternative too. |
