:groan: The sheer depth and breadth of that wiki page should avail me alone.

Nah it's not that bad, @"Baden" is watching over us, and he understands these artistic licenses.

Nah, apparently totally random, but I'll just post the link to the wiki here, at risk of mod freak-out-mode. The story is in that link somewhere

I want to post a youtube link to "Swastika Girls" by Fripp & Eno from their 1973 (!!!) proto-ambient record, (No Pussyfooting), but apparently both th...

So bro tho. Gross blo flows? Yo?

Chess?

Tough one, in'it :brow:

*Bulling balls

Nose goes, nose grows, or knows prose?

What an excellent thread. I hope I can contribute soon. Gratitude isn't one of my strong suits.

Sure, maybe that was my mistake, then; but to call infanticide "normal"? Normal has an ontological and epistemological connotation beyond simple cultu...

Why would you assume I find that funny? To the contrary, I find your expression of that situation horrifying. That reality is only normal within a mod...

Bill Bruford's KC debut :fire: :fire: :fire: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVb2tnFN5AA

Btw, I was laughing at your comment that 6,000 people in the UK decide to end their own lives is "normal".

I think my first chess game ever went swimmingly; sure I didn't do anything at all, but it was enlightening. I look forward to our next match, once I ...

:lol:

Normal? What's normal about it? This is great; we suddenly arrive at a purely emotional argument when we get here.

First move made :sweat:

What would happen if, as someone who knows nothing about chess, I joined a game with you? And just randomly made moves?

Are you a human? Can I terminate you?

Three witnesses corroborating!

Anyways, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkViCvrTPMc

I thought the same thing. Are we crazy?

What do you mean by "those"?

I'm joshin' you, I've been a musician since age 6.

No, I don't.

How/where/at what point?

More like without american standards, there would be no pop/, and without bop, there would be no american standards, and without swing, there would be...

Sharia is essentially theocracy, though.

Examples? And, examples that I only like "modern music", which is a failed copy of "classical music?" What does that even mean?

You have a lot to learn.

Bullshit.

What is "proper taste"?

Yeah, I think the Cosby case is the real case; it's the one that we can all agree on. Was that the case that started the #metoo movement? I can't reme...

Nah.

That's what's cool about language, I guess. We say it in a way that isn't said by others; and vise versa. What does that say about "meaning" in genera...

I'm not interested in bashing anyone, I'm just interested in the "rules" that designate who can and can't be bashed. My intuition is that it's all bul...

It just sounds like "juiciness". The association makes truth gross. Btw, I'm glad to see :100: making it's fresh-cut rounds. :sparkle:

God I hate that word "truthiness", but sure. I'm just here to mediate and play devils advocate, mostly, within politics.

It's almost as if stereotypes aren't real.

But isn’t it relatively rare for influential artists, philosophers, etc., to be totally innocent of morally reprehensible behavior? And what of things...

So if I'm against Islamism, or trans rights activists for instance, I'm free to joke that they should be turned into kebabs, right?

And you're an exemplar of what; non-partisan tactics? Convince me there's no "hyper" in your modus operandi.

I just used google. It's the shoutbox. Besides, I'm trying to alert @"Benkei" to his hypocrisies. Shhhhh!

The only way to eliminate human sheep is to exterminate them. I assume that's not what you're after? Of course, if the tables were turned and you were...

:up:

Viewing the film isn't endorsement of behavior; it's a crapshoot to see if the film itself was good or not.

If the movie is good, yes. If not, no.

Exactly. And even going further than your admissions on his behalf, he produced hundreds and hundreds of hours of perfect radio. Period. Again, totall...

Lol, what?
