Big Four Bands Thread Round 19: Gothic Rock

Besides, Nea isn't here to make legitimate points. He hasn't been notable on this site since he trolled JGuy out of this thread and now he's trying to recapture old glories. Which is pretty sad.

Some points to consider:

• Eins: It's all tongue-in-cheek and a barrel of laughs to the British writer who coined the word, but you have absolutely no proof every single German is ok with being called cabbage.
  
• Zwei:You openly admitted to wanting to piss off JGuy in this thread.
  
• Drei: Jguy had several disagreements with other members in this thread, and I was certainly not the only person or the last person he had an issue with, before he left.
  
• Vier: I could easily name four excellent German bands but I choose not to due to that name "*****rock."

Who finds the genre name of free jazz offensive? Fascists?

I agree with the sentiment of "who cares" though

Your friend is a pussy.

I didn't say it was offensive, I was saying it falls in line with some of the other silly genre names that exist that don't call for people to get insulted by them.

Oh, so like fitting genre names? I don't get it.

The fact that you continue to offer no actual points to your argument but instead insist on pissing people off for no gain is petty.

Also, the fact that you came into plug and booted Batty off the DJ and then left should tell everybody the kind of person you are. People can think you're nice, but you're a ****ing bull****ting *******.

This is why:

I didn't return any vulgarity for that vulgar post.
He wasn't banned.
He went on plugging.
He'll get his digs in later, maybe up the ante a bit more. And act more like a troll and pass it off as humor when it's not.
So I don't see your complaint.

It wasn't meant to be taken seriously. I know it defines the genre. It was a silly example.

So things said on MB now relate to plug? I don't understand. We were plugging for a few hours before you showed up unannounced and decided to be a dickbag for no reason. Whatever your motive was I don't really care, but what you do is petty and it makes you an *******.

it's not exactly super offensive but it's impolite, can make you look ignorant

my friend was cringing for my sake not his own

I literally don't care and will call anyone whatever I want. People need to grow thicker skin and not be offended by words. The only thing anyone should be offended by is a fist/kick. And you should throw one back.
