DMBFFF: quit attaching large number of YouTube videos to your posts without,
at least, adding spoiler tags, otherwise we'll have to start referring to your
username as "dumbfuck with a stutter." Thank you.

Also, there are a large number of people who don't re-size their pictures to a reasonable forum size.
There's nothing like opening a 'What Are You Listening To Right Now?" thread on an iPad -
just to have a big-ass Mondo pic taking up so much room that it makes all of the other posts look like 2-point type.
Remember, there are other people on the road.

Why don't you post a few Pil—or Bauhaus—videos here worth watching and/or listening to?—besides the ones I already have.

Frikin' awesome song—how can I say U2 is better?:



Love the drum—it's so real.

Not that the music is much better.

1. I'm new here. I'm not an expert on tags. What's a "spoiler tag"?
2. Am I suppose to GAF about tablet and phone users? Get your eyes back on the road and stop endangering peoples lives!!

Now I got that out, would these "spoiler tags" help?

You gotta help me, Frownland: you and rostasi.

Click Go Advanced, then click the Show|Hide button, enter in the spoiler preview (you can just use a period or whatever) and put what you want spoilered in between the tags.

Spoiler for the result is like this:
Boom


Anyways, my fave PiL song:



Just love how strung out it is, even compared to stuff like Albatross. Pop Tones is a contender too.

Highlight your YouTube link and click on "Show|Hide" (on the far right).
Write something and click "OK." It shows up like this:

Spoiler for Udti Chidiya Udte Udte Phans Gai:


I'm more of a desktop guy myself, but I don't think that's what the majority are using.
But it is a major annoying surprise when I do break out an iPad.
Can't imagine what it looks like on a phone.

Okay Frownland and rostasi, I'll give it a try, and if I'm even half-competent at it, I might edit my previous posts—might.

Thanks for your help.

Good song—kinda why I kinda posted it in page 139.

This sounds like it's from the early 80s, maybe late 70s.

Wasn't Jah Wobble doing bass?

The Swans were also active during this time—or maybe a few years later.


Btw, another "albatross" song I like a lot is Pink Floyd's Echoes.

Yeah, punk sure did a number on those guys—it's not like they'd release a double album around 1979-1980, it becomes a hit, played a lot on FM radio, and gains a lot of pop references.

I figure most of them are on Facebook or Twitter or whatever. This is a frikin' forum—not a place for the 144, or 288, or whatever-the-number crowd. But again, if I can do it, if it's easy, and it doesn't (seriously) mess with my posts, I'll probably give it a try.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that the majority of people in the world are not here on MB.

Also, the moderate-size picture thing? It's kinda like wearing a hat in a courthouse.

I wonder if the proportion of MB members use desktops as much as, or maybe more than, the Facebook and Twitter users.

Huh? (I didn't post Snoop Dogg)
