  1. Hey man. I know I was trying to defend your position in that other thread, but at the same time you're kind of pushing it, at this point. We get that you've got a lot of faith, that's commendable. We get that you want to share the good word, but I'm starting to find your insistence that it's "The Way the Truth and The Life" a little uncomfortable. As an online community, I think we've made it very clear that, while we respect your religious views, we're also not interested in being preached to. There's a line between sharing wise words and provoking people who are clearly not interested in the bible's words.
  2. Cos he's being a fascist... ...wait wait. I meant facetious.
  3. ^Tracy Po likes this.
  4. I really hate Lady Antebellum and was kind of annoyed they won so many awards lol Is it bad that I actually enjoyed the fact that it was 70% performances, 30% awards? I look forward to the elaborate performances and not so much the awards. Although I did hear that BT got to present a few awards off air, which is kind of nice to hear.
  5. He's posted some pics on his flickr, too. I can't get over how happy he looks. Long time comin'. He's practically glowing.
  6. A mod could have done it. I think Saturnine may have made a kind of offensive comment. I bet it got removed.
  7. I have never seen a happier, more at peace Matt. Absolutely lovely picture. Thank you so much for sharing ;)
  8. Many happy returns, Matt ;)
  9. haha yeah, Kevin and I really bonded over SP too XD Mind you, now he wants Knives cosplay and Chau is totally a Vietnamese last name lol
  10. Kevin and I heard about this a yesterday or something. Fuckin' sucks. Will pass the petition on.
  11. If you're Catholic, you believe Jesus is God, come to earth. God consists of The Father, The Son and the Holy Spirit. Madonna = Virgin Mary. Jesus was Mary Magdalene's boyfriend, if you'd like to put it in that term.
  12. ^Agree.
  13. To each their own. But that wasn't techno music.
  14. Do you mean Cinderella: From Fabletown with Love, or another one? If there's another one, I must buy. How are you liking Jack of Fables? If the crossover special was any indication of what the Jack comics are like, I may not bother getting into it, because it was hard to get through the crossover. Really boring, imo. The new Fables is good, but I'm starting to get worried it's getting stale. Same with Walking Dead :/ I'm hoping it's just the latest trades and it'll pick up again.
  15. haha it's not the greatest, but with my guilty penchant for trance music, it's kind of comforting to hear lol
  16. If anyone cares to have a high quality mp3: http://turbobit.net/u5zr9sqoywfx.html
  17. Holy shit, Nujabes died?? I never knew! D: The Samurai Champloo soundtracks are the shit...
  18. haha what'd you get her? A GHD?
  19. I have a glorious stack of graphic novels to read: Walking Dead Vol 13 Fables Vol 14 The Untold Legend of the Batman (which I completely forgot about owning as a child, until now) Blankets by Craig Thompson Marvels Nextwave - Agents of H.A.T.E Venom - Separation Anxiety (A friend is actually borrowing this from another friend of mine, but I'm holding onto it in the meantime, I might as well read it lol) Marvels The Ultimates 3 I just finished reading: The Lost Girls - Alan Moore. Who doesn't love Erotica based on fairy tales? The Anthology Project - http://theanthologyproject.com/ It's very beautiful and the stories are all generally very poignant. My graphic novel collection is growing and I'm afraid they might start fighting with Kevin's transformers lol
  20. I heard that he does that! I saw a clip on youtube, where he got to wear his browncoat outfit and his daughter on the show called him lame or something. I keep forgetting to watch the actual show tho ;)
  21. I was a fairweather fan of Sigur Ros, until I had the opportunity to see their documentary "Heima" at the Vancouver Film Center. I was blown away by how beautiful they sound "live". It was such a moment of clarity. Very zen moment. One of my favourite Electronic artists, Chicane, remixes Hoppipolla, and released it on his latest album, "Giants", as "Poppiholla". It's very nice. I checked out Jonsi's solo album, "Go", and I gotta say, I couldn't get into it. My fav albums are () and Takk... I gotta say, Sigur Ros is great stoner music haha
  22. I'm currently looking for a copy of "A Singer Must Die". Excited about his new album, coming out this month. Last night, Steven Page was doing a concert at the PNE. I was incredibly nervous. Considering the generally horrible experience I had at the last BNL concert I went to (The AMS block party, I referenced in my last post), I was worried I was going to have a similar experience. Thankfully, that didn't happen at all. Steve played about half new material, half old BNL material. He opened with Old Apartment, and despite me saying Ed can sing that song like a pro, it still has no comparison to when Steve sings it. Generally, when he sang all the old stuff, it sounded relatively the same, although he seemed to have added his own touch here and there with extra strings (there was a violinist in addition to a double bass) and xylophone. Kevin mentioned Steve's solo style is reminiscent of Arcade Fire. I can't really verify that. He did some oldies I never expected either, like "Break Your Heart" and "Enid". There's a part in Enid, near where Ed sings: I can teach you how to dance, how to sing, how to knit, How to make things that you never ever made before Enid, I can teach you how to use cookie cutters To make crazy things out of Play-Doh Little houses, little farms, little accessories for your mom, For your Barbie set, for your friends and your family Enid, I can teach you how to snowmobile, cross-country ski, snowshoe, But I don't want to! Over top of while Steve sings the chorus again. Obviously, they skipped over that, and that made me really sad, cos it's my favourite part of that song. Truth be told, I'm vaguely ashamed to say it, but I spent a lot of time either tearing up or downright crying. I had been really worried that both BNL and Steve would just sound so wrong without each other, but thankfully I got the closure I needed. I burst into tears after the concert, just because I had had such a great time. The ONE thing that made me really sad, is that BNL once said in an interview that part of what made the 25 years of touring easier, was that each show, Ed and Steve's goal was to make the other laugh really hard mid-song. And it ALWAYS happened, at any concerts I had gone to or seen. Steve didn't at all last night :/ There was very little band camaraderie. I still very much miss BNL for what it is, but maybe it won't be so bad. And maybe the rumours aren't true and BNL & Steve might one day reconcile. Also...ever since leaving the band, Steve kind of dresses sort of gay :S
  23. I was so choked they didn't include Gideon the cat. Honestly, I just expected everything to be way cuter. Because everything in the comics is just so adorable. I had heard they were shooting at Honest Ed's, but I didn't actually see it in the movie?
  24. omg, now I know you're real name! XD I was looking at my donation notification and was like "Uhh...I don't know this person...?" and then I figured it'd be someone from the Bored. Your donation is certainly appreciated. That you so much, Dan ;)
