JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, if that counts. how do you figure out what falls under that classification? i feel like Hunter x Hunter would because of its powerful themes

also i definitely need to watch FLCL again. watched it like 4 years ago and i don't remember anything besides liking it lol

Well, it was more than a little confusing. I watched it two years ago and I can't remember most of the characters names, let alone the events happening

it's supposed to be kinda confusing, since it's about puberty. it's hectic and beautiful and poetic

I wonder how different age groups perceive it. Are the younger fans more understanding because they're going through it at the time, or is it more confusing because they're not familiar with the concepts it tackles. Can older people reflect more strongly from more experience, or is the medium used too foreign from their experiences to convey information as readily.
Moreover, can anyone get what the hell happens in the show, or is it ambiguous like the End of Evangelion with more nebulous nuances to emphasize the confusion factor?

i would guess younger kids would identify with the setting and hectic style. the whole living at home thing, relationship issues, new people coming into your life, not really being in control of the things that are happening around you. older people are probably more receptive to the overall themes and more appreciative of the aesthetic decisions.

this is why i love it so much. it's so nuanced and so incredibly poetic, there are so many different ways and reasons people might enjoy it.

On a side note, watching Fullmetal Alchemist when you're sick is strangely satisfying... More than you'd expect.

i feel the same way about big o... something about being delirious makes me not care about how nonsensical it is

oh, i forgot to mention Madvillainy. such a fantastic work of art.

the Mountain Goats - the Sunset Tree

john darnielle is a really interesting guy. he posts a lot of cool stuff on tumblr. seems really mellow

Yeah we should only read intellectual books like The Stranger :^)

the stranger is a good book

i love how easily digestible this album is. perfect for car rides. really relaxing

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy


My favorite album of all time, every single song on there is a masterpiece and has something for any type of mood I am in.

Honorable mention tracks:

Runaway
Gorgeous
Power
Blame Game
Lost in the World

fukkkin GOAT

all of his albums are really good, even yeezus. i think yeezus was the victim of a kneejerk reaction in the same way 808s was, and in a few years people are gonna look back on yeezus and say "you know, it was really different, but he clearly knew where he wanted to go with it and he executed his vision well."

i love kanye. he's one of the best artists of our generation, and the divisiveness associated with him just makes it all the better.

Lady Gaga.

have you listened to the stuff she's been doing with tony bennett?

George Carlin. I like just about everything of his, but particularly the stuff he did around his death. The early stand up, while still funny, is obviously dated and less sharp than his newer stuff.

It's Bad for 'ya and You are all Diseased are probably my favorites.

i liked its bad for ya a lot. carlin had a really unique attitude that made him seem more human than many other standups

and what is your favorite standup special

i think i grew an extra chromosome after reading that

Librarian. I'm a very private individual, and I can't really work in a stressful environment, so I need peace and quiet. I like books and information technology, and I like helping people. I don't really care about money. I just want to make enough to live in a comfortable apartment and live a nice, simple, inoffensive life.
