ender's still like 12 right

stay away from carson

Um okay?? I masturbated to images of her when she was fucking older than me. I've masturbated to a lot of things, and the age of them isn't what's getting me off. Jesus christ, I don't even want to talk about this. I'm not a creep, I don't sexualize ANYONE, and I definitely don't think of Azula in that way. She is not a child in my eyes, she is not someone I want to be with or control. I want to BE her. The fact I'm getting pedophile accusations is so fucked up and honestly Verbatim you and Desty can fuck off.

so what were you doing posting r34 images of her in anarchy as an adult

did you think anyone would like that

how do you think that makes you look to a normal person who has never masturbated to that

her age is meaningless

the reason I got off to her had nothing to do with her age

says every pedophile ever

no one who isn't a pedophile says things like "age doesn't matter"

the point is that it does

How do we feel about Piranha Plant

i think he's really fun and i could honestly keep him as a pocket character, if only for memes

poison seems busted in a good way, i like creative moves that do weird but cool shit

They nerfed Dedede's Gordo range

I can't

The range is the same, they're actually talking about the Gordo's hitbox. It's smaller now.

Lita Ford - Black
Indie pop
6th album

A periphery glance at Lita Ford's solo career will tell you that she was just yet another super tacky dime-a-dozen glam artist whose career took the alt-rock bullet in the early '90s, just like pretty much all of her contemporaries. In fairness, however, she did start out playing for the Runaways, revealing some tasteful punk roots as well, although she left the band due to creative differences with Joan Jett (and look who became more of an icon).

Because her particular brand of hard rock had become so passé in the mid-90sthat any attempt at revitalizing her career was a lost cause, this is the last album she made before promptly disappearing. In it, she jumps on the grunge bandwagon and makes a passable effort doing so, but (as you could imagine) it's absolutely nothing to write home about. I like it more than Extreme's attempt, I'll say that much, but all in all, I can't really give a strong recommendation to it. Maybe if you like glam metal for some reason, listen to Dancin' on the Edge or Dangerous Curves instead.

Or just... not, and listen to a respectable genre of music.

The The - Hanky Panky
Alternative country
5th album

Matt Johnson is a crazy motherfucker.

I was going through his whole discography, as I do, and I enjoyed to a certain extent all of the albums that I listened to (especially Soul Mining and Dusk). His style is rather unique and difficult to describe—it's post-punk, but it's also kinda like R.E.M. with those college rock vibes, and there's a little bit of new wave in there as well. Whatever it is, it's good-sounding and I like it.

Then he makes Hanky Panky, and my brain explodes.

This album is made up entirely of Hank Williams covers.

At first, I thought it was a fucking joke, but one look at the expression on Matt Johnson's face on that album cover will let you know right away that he's dead serious. And you know what the best part is? It's actually pretty good.


Now, if you're expecting "proper" country music on this record, you're gonna be sorely disappointed. Matt Johnson knows that a true cover is not a rehash, but a reimagining, so every cover here is done in pure, unapologetic the The style. This will probably mean that most of you will find yourselves HATING this record profusely, especially if you happen to enjoy Hank Williams or if you haven't heard any of Hank's music in general.

I dig it mainly because I find Matt Johnson's brand of production very appealing, he's a great vocalist that I genuinely feel does Hank's poetry a lot of justice, and because I have a sense of humor. This album is really funny, and you kinda have to go into it recognizing that this is a very tongue-in-cheek kind of project. If you can't enjoy it, that's understandable, but for me, this was surprisingly enjoyable and may very well end up on my 3x3 when I'm all wrapped up with February '95.

Slash's Snakepit - It's Five O'Clock Somewhere
Hard rock
Debut album

Slash's Snakepit was a supergroup that aimed to combine the talents of Slash, drummer Matt Sorum, and guitarist Gilby Clarke (all from Guns N' Roses), bassist Mike Inez (from Alice in Chains), and lead vocalist Eric Dover (from Jellyfish). They put together just one album before disbanding, as supergroups tend to do.

Musically, the album is OKAY. Don't have a lot to say about it. Dover's vocals are the highlight. Slash's playing is boringly fantastic as usual. There are some rad cuts on it, like this one:


But don't expect the whole album to sound as good.

Belly - King
Jangle pop
Sophomore album

A Throwing Muses member Tanya Donnelly leaves the band to start her own, and proceeds to make better music than them before falling off the face of the earth, since this style of music was unfortunately not "in" at the time.

This one's probably my favorite out of this bunch, and is equal in quality to their debut, Star. Their sound can range from soft and serene to bursting and energetic, with some tracks (such as my favorite, the title track "King") managing to strike a perfect balance between these two moods. Donnelly's sincere and melodic vocal style kinda reminds me of Dolores O'Riordan (RIP), which is really cool, and it seems that Belly even toured with the Cranberries at one point. Which makes sense, as the influence is very clear to my ears.

If you love some jangle pop, this one (as well as Star) may just be a must-listen for you.

Nevermore - Nevermore
Power metal
Debut album

I label this thing as "power metal," but I'm not sure if it really qualifies, since it's a far cry from sounding anything like Stratovarius or Iced Earth or what have you. It's not quite thrash, it's not quite regular metal, and it's not quite unique enough to be its own thing, so I don't understand what the fuck it's trying to be. I went with power metal just because that's what Wikipedia has decided to call it, and it sounds about right to me, but I'm not an expert.

Anyway, I think Warrel Dane does a GREAT job on the vocals on this thing, but the lyrical themes are another story. Lyrically, this is about as corny as you could ask for when it comes to power metal, and you need not look any further than the song "Timothy Leary," which pays tribute to the famous druggie psychologist, to understand this.

A wise man came across the sea
In search of LSD—PHILOSOPHY!
With open heart and open mind
To find the goodness in mankind

Chemicals improve the view
Visions now have bloomed in you
Windowpane is suffered bliss
A psychedelic kiss
Show to me your ideology
Do you perceive or are you sleeping?

Dont get me started on the fucking chorus:

Timothy Leary, where are you now
The world needs you, we're going down

Just awful. And sure, maybe it's stupid to care about lyrics on a heavy metal record, but to me, they're always gonna matter. It's also the way he sings them that makes it so hilarious to me, as well.

Now, to be fair, I'm picking on the absolute nadir of the album. The rest isn't quite this bad, and there are indeed some flashes of greatness here and there, like the song "Chrome Black Future," which is by far my favorite.


This is really good, and I wish the album had more of this, but it kinda doesn't. Therefore, I'm overall kinda lukewarm on this thing.

Next:

Trisha Yearwood
No Use for a Name
Blink-182
Tricky
DJ Quik

The Blink-182 debut should be interesting.

oops i don't actually know how it works

edit:
yeah i can't play this character for shit, but i think you can maybe see part of my point

if that were a battlefield platform that screw attack would've killed, it's tricky to land but i think it's a thing you should at least try, and it's not gonna work so well on FD

so we're going from version 1.2.1 to 2.0.0 tonight

i hope that means we're getting a lot of shit

especially piranha plant
especially more online features (and improved netcode and reduced input lag online)
especially no nerfs to anyone since i really enjoy how the game is balanced so far with the majority of characters being good

inkling could be toned down a bit though i suppose

literally got everything i wanted except online features

bless sakurai

add me and i will NOT hesitate to fuck you up

man, i'm the best fucking jigglypuff in the world

drama at this point in this website's life is just really corny and gay tbh

So my boy Link's apparently top tier now? Nice

i don't know about top tier, but he's the best he's ever been for sure

anyway, you should reset your router/modem or whatever if solonoid is being serious, because a ddos is when someone sends enough fake requests to your IP address to basically render it unusable to anyone who's trying to legitimately access it
