I suppose that's true. I will try to take that into account going forward.

But my difficulties with progressive rock run many years back. Complex compositions, amazing musicianship, intellectually challenging compositions, perhaps even a dash of originality: Sounds good, but I'm usually not feeling the power of the music at that deep level.

There's still a million groups I've never really delved into, so...

That's because I don't take the club too seriously. Do you have any other examples?

Peasant.

You don't? And yet you gave me unbelievable **** about a few of your albums because I didn't bow down and suck your dick. As for examples? Choose any band or artist I'm into, any one at all will do. Now tell me what you think about my being into that artist. You're always the same. My taste sucks, yours rules. Yes you can sig that if it makes you feel better.
That's clearly not you. You've always gone to great lengths to inform us that you are THE Batlord. That's just about A Batlord. Sorry. Nice try. :finger:

Not really.

Check out the thread that you're referring to and you'll see that I actually tried to get your perspective on the record to better understand it instead of just shouting "NO IDONLIKEIT". That's the difference. I'm not so self-absorbed to think that I couldn't miss something about an album like you are whenever I try to provide my perspective on a record to you. Now go take your victim complex and shove it.

Tbf Frown, you have a tendency to pounce on people. The classical music thing for instance. Literally nobody else was on your side and yet you continued to make a point that nobody understood. So yeah, you tend to be vicious when you wanna be. You just hate it when it's thrown back.

Yes because I made the meme.

Go jump in a lake.

i mean we all know frown is a douchenozzle but he takes it as well as he dishes it. i've never seen him get very worked up or offended.

I will call out stupid points no matter how unpopular that is. I'd appreciate that to be reciprocated tbh, nobody wants to be an idiot.

Okay well I was always told the tabernacle was that little box in which they kept the Host, where the priest goes to get it at Holy Communion. I see I was lied to. :( Imagine that! The Catholic Church, lying to me! :yikes:
Revisionist. You never accept any criticism of your music; it's always my fault that I don't get it. Even on the very odd times that I do actually like it, you say nothing. Anyway we've danced this dance before and my feet are tired. Just try leaving people alone to like what they like and stop trying to make the music you like take over the world, huh? We'll all be a lot happier. I don't give you **** for what you listen to; listen to what you want. I don't give a single **** what you think about my music, I just see you're projecting the same arrogance onto what MicShaz likes, and it's typical of you. It's not surprising you get up so many people's noses.

Oh and I have never, despite your desperation for me to have done so, shouted NO I DON'T LIKE IT! I always give a reason WHY I don't like it and I always accept that others may do, it's just not for me. If that's not enough for you, and I know it isn't, go climb a tree. Your oversimplification of my reactions to albums/genres/artists is pretty annoying to be perfectly honest, and entirely untrue and completely biased.

He gets pretty pissed when you say things aren't music that he thinks are music with enough derision. I actually got under his skin pretty good with one of those conversations (he used "obnoxium" to describe my posts) and if Chula weren't hopeless at capitalizing on successful trolling he'd have wound him up pretty good on any number of occasions.

Yes, because it's music that's outside of your comfort zone that you're not familiar with. You 100% don't get it.

Here's a cookie for liking my music that one time.

tl;dr don't discuss music on a music discussion forum. Sorry for having the nerve to disagree with you, TH.

No you absolutely dig your heels in whenever I suggest that you're missing something about an album and demand that there is no possible way that you can be wrong. But sure, you like some albums sometimes, I'm sorry for not mentioning that too. Here's a cookie.

You do realize he's being ironic with all that braggadocio don't you?

I'm sad to see an increase in personal sniping recently on MB. Mods seem pretty slack about handing out warnings these days, so I think we might all benefit if we were to remember the rules when we post:-

What I notice is that it states clearly that we shouldn't be rude, insulting or make personal attacks.

Even though there is a general concensus irl that it is preferable to be open-minded, or un-biased or non-racist, none of those are MB requirements. What I'm saying is that even if you are reading the posts of someone you consider to be a bland, bigotted, close-minded racist who fails to get every joke and has lousy taste in music, that's still not a justification for breaking the rule about rude, insulting personal attacks.

My advice is to be tolerant; if you don't like a guy's politics or approach to music, don't fire off a personal insult. Instead, take a break, go to another thread and leave him be.

If I can't be rude then **** this site.

I've actually noticed a dramatic decline in personal insults.

Urban built this place on rudeness and snarky remarks. If we stop that, we'd be doing a disservice to Urban, and I will not be a part of that.

Yes, we must not tarnish Urban's legacy of snark and creeping on underage girls

Chula has that covered.

This is why I don't hit on you except ironically.

And now I'm the ******* for being ignorant on what she actually meant. Woops.

Sorry WWWP.

I think you got what she meant, maybe you're just not getting what I meant?

:finger:

Hard to tell now.

Then maybe send me actual nudes and not trolling bull****.

^ Unfortunately the rules don't distinguish between the rude that's ok really and the rude that's an offensive personal attack. Please don't ask me what the difference is: I'm sure there is one, but I couldn't explain it.

^ I think there was a significant decline when Exo opened this thread, but with the rubber soul debate and today's posts here, there's been a sharp but hopefully brief uptick again.

^ That's amusing Kiii, though I'm more inclined to say that tore built this place on courtesy and mutual respect....

I don't think anybody but rs has been actually offended in here. On the topic of rudeness. It comes with the territory when you "hangout" with the same people day after day. You want to make things interesting and I've always found jabs at other people (though I know sometimes it gets personal) is sort of a refreshing and natural appeal to the place. But at the same time, some people aren't in on it and we can be accommodating but at the end of the day, if I can't call Batlord a ****** whenever I want, there's something wrong.

And even with the very tame supposed uptick, we're still not seeing it very often.

you first

I have his if you want em.

And if I can't point out Key's IRL stupidity then that's half the reason I'm here gone.

Friendship!

If I had a camera phone then don't think I couldn't get drunk enough to take you up on that and expect you to reciprocate before reporting me to the mods.

^ HaHa! Yeah, I don't want to spoil the fun either.

^ If this is true then I'm happy.

^ This sounds like a really good approach. If someone's ok with you being rude, go right ahead, if they're not, it's time to stop. It's like those role-playing sex games where you can use your pre-arranged safe word when things get too wild. Perhaps MB should start a Safe Word Register....

I apologise for calling Charles a tart earlier.

**** off, Hitler.

First time I've ever seen Lisna relate MB to a sex game. We've reached a new level.

Ladolf actually. I'll settle for Monkssolini.

^ Now I just feel dirty and used :o:
