i was reading some chick magazine like cosmo or something giving chicks advice on how to stay looking good for men & it was boring as fuck til i got to this t-bomb - "the truth is, once you're with a guy, they don't really care how you look until they start searching for reasons not to like you anymore" daaaaaaaaaaamn

whoa. Yeah, there's something there. It's bitter, but it's something.

getting mad about this show is zzz. its like complaining about starbucks or the suburbs or something. you are all very unique holden caulfields

This sorta "you are all v unique holden caulfields" attitude is pretty challops (at least on ILX) tho, isn't it?

some of these truth bombs dangerously close to challenging opinions

What is the middle ground b/w "earnestly against the machine" and "god earnestly raging against the machine is so obvious and boring"

Audioslave?

Weird thing about this whole debate is that it sometimes seems to hang around the assumption that a relatively small livejournal community and a couple of blogs are somehow the alpha and omega of all modern day music writing.

I can understand not liking the sound of Gwen Stefani's voice but saying that Ashlee Simpson is a better singer really just shows that you don't quite grasp the concept of singing.

lol @ aspies hating on me

_why's personality and philosophies have a significant effect on the Ruby community, and also go a long way to forming the "public" impression of the Ruby community. If Wikipedia has an article about Ruby, it should have an article about _why.

oh my god these people

note that his "name" HAS to start with an underscore
this is pathetic and horrible and self-parody in the extreme

i am going to lock this thread if you guys keep talking about nerd shit.

I think people basically need to get over that urge to say "OMG BEST THING EVER" and create this hysterical Emperor's New Clothes cult around every funny Internet picture or grammatically awkward quote from a weird/insane dude, I mean we're all bored office workers but some of us manage to occupy ourselves in a constructive way, like starting 15+ "Your favourite jokes about" threads containing nothing puns and dogshit non-sequiturs

Ed Byrne, an Irish stand-up comedian, made the very valid point that everything in that song is not really *ironic*, its just *unfortunate*. For example:
Like 10,000 forks, when all you want is a knife = unfortunate
Like 10,000 forks, when all you want is a knife, but then find with hindsight that a fork would have been OK after all = ironic.
Like ra-i-ain on your wedding day = unfortunate
Like ra-i-ain on your wedding day but you were marrying a meteorolgist specialising in the study of precipitation systems who predicted fine weather = ironic.

The ironic thing is that every time we see Wall-E (or buy merchandise related to it) the money goes to a corporation called Disney. Eat your cake and have it too.

i know, it's so hypocritical that they didn't just make a photocopied zine about consumerism and send it out to 100 million people. would have been a much better way to get their message across!!!

I think when you hit your mid-twenties and most of new bands out there are either your age or a bit younger, it's harder to tolerate their twattishness and give them the benefit of the doubt.
