Religion Itself Is The Fount Of Most Evil
Maverick replied to supercanuk's topic in Politics and Debate: WRONG!
Obviously. -
Say again? I realize that this guys soliloquey was 'fixed'. But it is still written poorly. Like I said, he needs a better thesaurus.

I suggest not being such a coward and voicing whatever it was that you were going to say.

How does that work? Videos that are awesome: Everything is Automatic Apparitions Indestructible Hello Time Bomb Load Me Up Strange Days Carmalina Anti-Pop The Future is X-Rated Weapon Videos that aren't so great: Alert Status Red Rico Videos I haven't seen: Alabama Motel Room Symbolistic White Walls Oh Be Joyful It's Been a While Since I Was Your Man So, even if those four "suck"... that's still not half. EDIT: Ashley Judd is a terrible actress as well as a filthy whore. Just thought I'd throw that in.

Fuck, one thing is for sure, whoever wrote thiat should buy a better thesaurus.

Bands That You Used To Hate...
Maverick replied to sodamntired's topic in Music In General: David Bowie Appreciation Station
I use to hate Alexisonfire as well, now I simply despise them. Guys got a great voice though........... -
I heard she manipulated him and was the mastermind herself. And why does she require our pity? Her sentence was a joke and it was called a "deal with the devil" for a reason. She's evil. Yeah, yeah, I know she's got all these restrictions now and all that shit. If I had it my way she'd be behind bars for life.

Yeah, well, I miss new wave... OMGZ... LOLZ. Anyways, I'm wondering: Was this song supposed to be on the radio? P.S. ignore first part of post.

Some should work, if I'm not mistaken.

Ep. IV Ep. V Ep. VI Shawshank Redemption Good Will Hunting Gattica Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark Terminator II: Judgement Day Platoon No particular order, but those 10 come to mind.

Jack Pillow Head or something

They're actually pretty effective, especially for minimizing theft and street crimes. As for stopping terrorists, that's a whole other matter, I suppose.

Fearless has got the advantage insofar as the instrumentation is far better. The piano is key.

What are you listening to?

Great song there. -

Where did the queer Western talk come from? You a Stetson man? I don't swing that way, my friend. -
Canada Now The Only Top 5 Al-qaeda Target Not Hit
Maverick replied to Moonlight_Graham's topic in Politics and Debate: WRONG!
They can be absolutely whimsical about chosing which location to target. The world trade center wasn't the only area of significance, moron. That's one of dozens of locations that could have been struck. I haven't seen any evidence to suggest that Osama and Al-quaeda are particularily intelligent or rational. have you ever heard Osama or any other al-quaeda members speak? They're fucked. They're really well organized cowards. Being able to evade authorities doesn't necessarily make them intelligent. I'm not impressed with Al-quaeda at all. They are supposedly so well organized with terrorist cells all over the world. If they are so "rational and intelligent" they'd be able to pull off more than 3 major attacks in 4 years. They have to worry about hiding expenses. Other than that, it's as complicated as filling a bag with explosives and getting on public transit. You're just lucky Doc replied first. You would have been locked in your room crying, otherwise. -

I'm pretty sure about that following: Hello Time Bomb Apparitions Strange Days Tripoli (acoustic) Prime Time Deliverance (acoustic)

Maverick replied to mikebutt's topic in Music In General: David Bowie Appreciation Station
Yes, I can see how that is a bit of a generalization. I hear rap all the time that is split up into several versus that are bridged by syntesizers or dance renditions, etc. At the same time, I am quite familiar with alternative and rock compositions that are structured in a very line-to-line format. It just seems that both rap and alternative/rock are structured somewhat similarily. There are the versus and of course a chorus. I am no expert, of course. So, I could be wrong. -

Maverick replied to Moonlight_Graham's topic in Politics and Debate: WRONG!
Well, that's the point. They have been raised and educated to act in what can easily be considered a "crazy" way. Whenever you take the lives of the innocent, even for what you deem to be the greater good, there's something insane about that tactic. I even say that in regards to George W. There are better ways, people. -

Maverick replied to mikebutt's topic in Music In General: David Bowie Appreciation Station
I understand. You don't think rock or alternative music comes line-by-line as well as in a structured format? I don't see the difference, very clearly anyways. -

Maverick replied to Moonlight_Graham's topic in Politics and Debate: WRONG!
Agreed. They are intelligent and rational. At the same time, I strongly believe they are crazy. Yes, you can be both rational and insane. To call their actions "whimsical" is just not very insightful. -

I'm not even going to respond to that, Rebabaluba. But,I will respond to Mike. How can you interpret rap vocals as being more fluid and dynamic when it excludes tone, the very essense of music, the very factor that makes music beautiful and talented. I'm sorry, but anyone can "talk" to a beat, with rhythm and rhyme. And, no, by anyone I do not include myself. I'm just utilizing a hyperbole to emphasize that it does not take the talent that actual singing takes. I'd urge you to consider that vocal fluidity is enhanced when the voice is used to caress notes and lyrics. Can we not agree that true vocalists, who have a wide range of tone and tone quality also include a great deal of rhythm in their music. Much of which can be compared to that of the rhythm in rap, but instead with an added flavour of gracefullness, as in actual song. I'm talking about being both melodic and rhythmic. You mentioned that rap includes solely (usually)rhythm rather than melody. I would argue that talented artists like Matt include both these concepts. I would also argue that they are both necessary in a composition for it to be labled true music. Another thing that bothers me: I noticed that popularity in the rap industry is more and more becoming a question of image rather than raw talent. I'm not saying that we don't have this problem in alternative, rock, etc. It just seems that it's an issue moreso, categorically, within rap.
