MT2008, I just can not stand rap music. I prefer old school stuff, including the following:

* Iggy Pop (both his solo career and his stuff with the Stooges).

* The Velvet Underground

* Lou Reed

* David Bowie

* Joan Jett

* Joy Division

* New Order

* Siouxsie & The Banshees

* Nirvana

I hate the rap "no snitching" culture. People think that when they know who a murder/rapist/thief/arsonist is and dont tell that there being cool hardcore gangstas and all but there are countless people who get hurt because of it

S&Wshooter 05-06-2011 04:32 PM

If he is going to listen to rap, at least get him to listen to good rap like the Wu Tang Clan

I like some of that stuff (not so much the abundance of late-70s/early-80s new wave, but definitely stuff like Iggy Pop and Nirvana). I also happen to like a lot of things, for various reasons.

*Shrugs* I once listened to Kanye West, too - "College Dropout" was my favorite album in 2004. I'm guessing you're too young to remember (and since you despise rap, I know you also don't care), but there was a time when Kanye was actually a respectable artist who made music that was new and fresh. In 2004, everybody was touting him as the guy who was going to break gangsta rap's stranglehold on hip-hop. Problem is, he let it all get to his head, and decided that he wasn't satisfied being a respected popular rapper - he had to be the biggest star in pop music EVAR. It's kinda sad, really; I think he should have stuck to what he did best and been satisfied with the respect he already had. But I guess for some people, once they taste fame, they've just gotta have more and more.

Anyway, if your brother at least likes "College Dropout", I don't see any reason to facepalm yourself over that.

Swordfish941 05-06-2011 06:54 PM

My little brother has been watching Tyler Perry films on Netflix Instant (his movies suck and even Spike Lee hates them). I'm just patiently waiting for Adventureland to arrive, but for now, I think I might watch Easy A.

But because I no longer feel the need to adopt other people's identities as my own (or piss off my parents), I can just listen to rap without wanting to act gangsta.

Also, I had no idea there were still wiggers, in 2011? I figured that trend would have exhausted itself by now.

you already banned him, dont you think this is just pissing on his grave?

The total number of dislikes on all of Justin Bieber's Youtube videos are: 1,485,500. That is 325,500 more dislikes than Rebecca Black's "Friday" video. That is a fail of epic proportions.

Well if Eminem can continue to relapse every couple years or so and write a new album about his "recovery", among other things, wiggers are sadly still very much present.

My town is full of them, which is extra obnoxious because upstate NY is not the place "cold hard wangstas" develop from. So basically this place is full of posers. One kid in particular comes to mind, he's my age, about 5'5", thinks he's a gangster, listens to shit like Lil' Wayne and Eminem because they "speak to him", and is generally a really scummy person. Not because he's a little wigger even, but because I'm friends with his ex-girlfriend, who he punched in the face. Needless to say, he can't take a punch nearly as well as his gangster "bretheren". :cool:

As Brian pointed out, Zulu got a temp ban only (which is unprecedented - our policy is normally two strikes). I'm sorry you're disappointed with me for not banning Burt, but in this particular case, it was a matter of Zulu being hot-headed towards a joke (even if, given Burt's history with Zulu, it's a little hard to tell when he's joking). If there are any more problems, I assure you that justice will be served, and you can ask me (or another Mod) to step in if we don't notice soon enough.

Yeah, people like that are really annoying. I hate it when high school kids try to sound ghetto and act "hard", but it's even worse when they actually do stuff like abuse girls because they think they're "P.I.M.Ps". Although if somebody really is the kinda person who would hit a girl, I would think that whether or not they listen to rap is irrelevant. If the dude's only 5'5", I'm guessing his problem is that he just has a Napoleon complex, more than anything else.

In my book, If you abuse a girl to act tough, you're automatically a gigantic pussy. I can't stand wiggers and posers (along with noobs and hipsters).

Not me, it just makes me kinda annoyed that Americans eat so unhealthy. I haven't had a burger in forever.

There is no dislike button:mad:

A burger isnt exactly unhealthy. Depends on whats with it. A lean burger, wheat roll, is pretty ehalthy. now eating 2 of these and a hot dog with 4 slices of cheese and all...thats bad. Im cooking some lean steak soon and having some ceasar salad on the side.

Grilling is the healthiest way to cook a burger

k9870 05-07-2011 10:06 PM

Yeah it seems people think of mcdonalds and wendys as our burgers not excellent homegrilled ones. Burgers, steak, chicken, all great on the grill.

Swordfish941 05-07-2011 10:09 PM

I suggest that MT2008 go out and a eat a hamburger before the House of Un-American Activities arrest him.

Apparantly the Angus burgers are better, but I wouldn't know, I have yet the desire to shell out $4 to try what is probably still not as good as every other place's burgers.

Wendy's hamburgers are the best, THeir fries are awesome too.

S&Wshooter 05-07-2011 10:31 PM

Whataburger is best, but they are more expensive than McDonalds (you get what you pay for though)

k9870 05-07-2011 10:37 PM

never even heard of them SW

Yeah, now that they have "all natural" fries with sea salt they've pretty much nut-kicked MickyD's business. Most people would have the dilemna of good fries of McDs or good burgers from Wendies.

I try to avoid fast food and save it for only the rarest occasions. Gotta keep my girlish figure. :rolleyes:
