The Flood / Re: My vinyl collection just exploded.
« on: January 29, 2017, 06:33:17 PM »
you love visually interesting but functionally obsolete things

I suppose, but vinyl offers a different sound than something you'd get on a CD.

But even if it didn't I'd still buy the records. There's just something attractive about the blown-up album art and difficulty of skipping songs... Trent said it best on his website.

Quote
"In these times of nearly unlimited access to all the music in the world, we've come to appreciate the value and beauty of the physical object. Our store's focus is on presenting these items to you. Vinyl has returned to being a priority for us - not just for the warmth of the sound, but the interaction it demands from the listener. The canvas of artwork, the weight of the record, the smell of the vinyl, the dropping of the needle, the difficult of skipping tracks, the changing of sides, the secrets hidden within, and having  physical object that exists in the real world with you... all apart of the experience and magic. Digital formats and streaming are great and certainly convenient, but the ideal way I'd hope a listener experience my music is to grab a great set of headphones, sit with the vinyl, drop the needle, hold the jack in your hands looking at the artwork (with your fucking phone turned off) and go on a journey with me."

That's all I needed to make the switch, because I knew exactly what he was talking about... not necessarily the warmth of the sound or the needle drop, but the not being able to skip songs bit... that was a huge thing for me while collecting tapes. There's just something surreal about understanding an album when you're not rushing through to your favourite songs. It's far more rewarding. And unlike cassettes, vinyl is still alive and kicking for the most part.

not gunna lie, deci looks nice in that pic.
lol dude that's class

It's a pic of Deci I had in my folder


Class looks like the forgotten Culkin cousin
as if

You'd look sick if you wore more black tbh. Maybe some eyeliner.
lol I'm not emo

I go for more of a loafish vibe, which is why I like photos like these

i'm just saying, you could pull off the emo thing really well. hard to tell what you really look like from the photos tho, we'd need some candids to judge accurately

Leaving Hope - Nine Inch Nails

The last 3 songs off Still are unbelievable. If you have the time, grab a pair of good headphones, crank up with volume, and listen to And All That Could Have Been, The Persistence of Loss and Leaving Hope in quick succession. I cannot recommend it enough.

Leaving Hope is his best instrumental, though.

Fellas if I was gay there'd be no need to be in the closet, I'd stunt with that shit. No shame here ::)

I guess so, I just hate this retard shit that every woman needs makeup to be attractive.

Not to mention that the kind of men Jive think are attractive aren't at all. He'll sit there for hours defending ape jawlines.

Yeah, it's bullshit. If I ever have a daughter, she'll know she doesn't need any of that garbage.

The only makeup I like is eye shadow, but I think that looks good on everybody, man or woman.

Every makeupless woman looks just as good as she does with makeup.


Makeup is completely unnecessary.

I agree, but that doesn't mean that a woman with makeup is just as beautiful without. If she was, she would use make up, it would defeat the purpose (excusing some products).

Quote
If you wanted to make things totally fair, men should be the ones who have to painstakingly modify their body every day for the next 3000 years so they can be attractive to their wives.

Or no one could use modifications. If women didn't use makeup, then yeah, they're more attractive overall then men. But that doesn't mean they're just as beautiful without makeup as with.

You can insult me even more for this if you want, I don't give a shit anymore. I'm gone from this terrible community, and this time for good. I've tried so hard to make friends and be helpful on here, yet none of you bastards even fucking cared about my themes! No one thanked me for all the time I spent coding true mute. What do I get instead, a bunch of people ganging up on the autistic guy.

Well, no more. Fuck you Sep7agon, and goodbye forever.

Jive is in love with manhood, I'm in love with womanhood. We're both biased, but I have the advantage of having a correct bias.

Fair enough.

I think on average women are prettier simply because it's common for them to beautify themselves with make up and provocative clothing, but I don't think those 1%'ers on either side of think he field are any more of less appealing than the other. It all depends on which way you swing.

Comparing Mila Kunis to Henry Cavill isn't a fair comparison because Cavill is in that top 1%, Kunis isn't.

You might "love" women, but you don't love womanhood.

Why does "womanhood" have any relevance in a conversation comparing the overall physical attractivity of the sexes, anyway? If anything, the fact that you love womanhood (whatever the fuck that means) and Jive "doesn't" suggests you are the one who is biased here, not Jive.
