^ fixed.

You know sometimes I wish hhbh would just describe himself as a Consevative, Liberal, Communist, Socialist, Capitalist, Aurthoritarian, or Anarchist so I know what agenda he is approximately articulating. Until then imo he'll remain one of the most surreal members here :rolleyes:

I find that endearing that you have problems with other members - not that I want to see anyone give you a hard time. But it is something that I can relate to and in fact those words "I may not always make sense with what I say but I find your response can be quite snarky" go through my mind quite often.

Neapolitan- Good guy, quirky, seems to have alot of obscure answers to information that pertains to the subject which I enjoy. Likes a few of the same bands I like.

Thanks for the positive gut spilling. I take that over the negative gut spilling any day.

Yes unfortunately you can't escape someone taking what you say offensive on the internet but I don't let it bother me, it's just something I've noticed. I haven't exactly been an angel on here hehe.

Hi, Bloozcrooz ! I`m happy to see that you`re active here again, but I have to take issue with something you just posted :-

To me analyzing what I say for fear of disagreement or any other reason is pretentious no? Because its not how you truly feel and its just to pacify the other person.
To me there`s nothing particularly pretentious about analyzing what you say. Babies express how they truly feel, screaming to reject discipline, crying when they`re hungry or scared. But then we grow up, we moderate our outbursts; we become more aware of the people around us and, usually, with that awareness comes empathy and consideration.

Recently an aquaintance of mine told me tearfully that she had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. She didn`t look too good, but she told me that she was trying to be positive - that some people conquer cancer just by thinking positive thoughts. Well, after my initial shock, what I thought was, "You look like you`re dying. You are beyond the help of positive thoughts. Thank God it`s happening to you, not me." Not very worthy thoughts, but I`ll admit that that`s how I truly felt. Didn`t say any of it though, because what I truly feel is not always the most important issue.

Moderating what we say for fear of disagreement is perhaps less honorable, but it happens, often for the sake of peaceful co-existence.

So I guess I`m saying that as a social animal, I`m forever monitoring what I say for whatever of the reasons above. What you call pretentious, I would call mature.

Excellent response. I wholeheartedly agree. Being considerate is a rare quality that unfortunately becomes forgotten. A lot of people will mistake that as "not being yourself" and I think at some point it can become quite narcissistic. Be honest about what you're trying to express, opinions and such, but I don't really see why it has to be shoved in your face and devoided of respect. Acknowledge with tone and comfort that you're open to opinion, perspective, ideas, and not just yours.

All valid points but I put my response in the "what is the future of human evolution" thread. Closest fitting thread format I was willing to spend time looking for.

Based on what I know about the two of you, I'm sure you'd both get along like a house on fire:laughing:

Oh man, sorry for the late reply, but I just read this. Thank you so much for the kind words, mate :)

"All the jokes for all the folks", that's my motto. Actually, mine is "If it didn't scream when it died, then I don't wanna eat it", but that's not really relevant to the conversation.

I wanted to concentrate this post on people I feel really add alot to music discussion here and do an admirable job in the process.

Alfred- Very nice approachable guy with a vast discography. Also adds to the Lounge area and has a very good personailty and great approach to everything in general.

Mankycaant- He at times seems to be the guy that sparks conversation in a myriad of ways. Has a real taste for good hip hop and takes the time to create lasting threads and doesn't ever stray from his feelings on anything.

Urban- I don't get the people who put him on blast. I think hes a pretty down to earth guy and his music taste is very admirable. He puts alot of heart into his post and has a real dialed in approach to seeing things. I find myself doubting my own discography at times because he says something that makes sense even if its taking a band I love and adore and smashing them to bits. Solid guy. And yeah I deserved the **** off that one time. LOL
