I am in fact, a dude. Even if I wasn't a dude, you could still call me dude. Dude to me is a very gender neutral term. Thank you for your consideration, though, dude.

I don't listen to KP at all unless it's being played in a place where I'm having lunch for the record.
What place is this? I need to add it to my list of places I should be avoiding.

And your comment about finding posts from me in the KP thread makes you look even more pretentious - for what it's worth.
No, I wasn't implying that you are of lesser intelligence. I was implying that you are a fan of Katy Perry because you seem a little bit emotionally charged so I assumed I offended you.

You'll see posts from me. Call me artistically unintelligent.
Oh, I'm already onto you. No one is safe from my judgement.

I'm not saying if someone enjoys a mainstream pop song they are less intelligent, I'm more so saying if that is your sole taste in music and you find it wholeheartedly engaging and fulfilling from an artistic standpoint, you probably lack the artistic intelligence to appreciate more complex art. I've never once seen someone discuss the theory or the emotional weight of a Katy Perry song. It is inherently less complex, and if your sole musical outlook is Katy Perry songs, you are artistically simple, in my eyes.
I cordially invite you to loosen up and open yourself to the wonders of what theory can do with pop music.

Oh, I love pop music, actually. The Knife are my favorite of all time, probably. I love Perfume Genius, also, and Bjork, and Goldfrapp. I really loved FKA Twig's releases.

I love that Jacket tho. All that article really told me is that she lacks artistic variation and uses subliminal messages to brainwash people into liking her music.

The plot thickens.. illuminati tbh

He's done and he knows it. His attempts at wit to diffuse his earlier degrading posts have already fallen on deaf ears.

And for the record, I f*cking love this song and video.

I didn't even notice this gem before.

Done what? I even said I like some mainstream pop songs. If mainstream pop is your entire musical spectrum and you find it emotionally and artistically stimulating, to me, that is the equivalent of someone finding Blues Clues emotionally and artistically stimulating. Don't get me started on Lana Del Rey. I could go on and on about her. If you think this is the first time I've expressed this and gotten this type of reaction, you're wrong. Actually -- this place isn't as bad. On a majority of occasions where this is brought up, people try to justify artists like Lana Del Rey as innovative and progressive.
