zing

steve a sez women don't listen to good music

I don't care if you came in to shit on El, Aes, Vast Aire, MF Doom or fucking Humpty Hump; what the issue is here is your predictable tendency to just step in like your opinion of underground rap means anything more significant than "The beats are not jiggy crunk and the rhymes are too complex therefore it is shitty and worthless". The only reason you probably looked in this thread was because the header was "Aesop Rock is cool" and you probably had a snarky "I can't understand what he is rapping about and the production makes me sad" retort, and all you did was just replace that with "ew El-P for four minutes, that's awful". Have you even fucking HEARD THE VERSES? I think Matos and I made it pretty damned clear that they're pretty different from his usual style. Fucking A. And "timidly closeminded taste in rap": yeah, that's precious. I guaranfuckingtee you I have more appreciation and tolerance for mainstream hip-hop than you have for underground hip-hop.

What I want ILM to be is something above "hurr hurr uh like dude that suxx"; you seem to approach most indie rap in a tone that sounds like a hyperactive teenager on a Dew-and-crank bender lashing out against all those horrible critics who said bad things about "bling bling" in their big-up reviews of Stankonia or Labor Days.

nate was so sincere and you broke him :(

i think everyone should have to take a mandatory course called "learning to enjoy and find humour in getting one's own balls busted." people would enjoy life a lot more. and there'd be tons more great zings.

i'd wish the same upon you, kate, but i think you're miserable enough. also ken otm.

Ethan, why are you still dredging up 4-year-old shit re: Nate zings? Did he fuck your girl?

i just reposted a 3 year old zing!!

i got zinged

^^ potential ilx tee

hey dave i posted it because its a classic zing - my girl isnt a marmot or whatever so dude probly isnt interested in tapping it

it is more of an el-p zing anyway.

what thread is that schef kate zing from?

my girl isnt a marmot or whatever so dude probly isnt interested in tapping it

CLASSY

chaki, it's from i hate people having sex

What you do is you go inside the pain. Then, the pain is no longer inside you - it's outside. But then you realize there you are in this new space in your body again and maybe your body is still registering the pain. So you repeat the process. But I believe that each time you make that move you are actually doing something toward eventually healing that pain.

more sigh than zing

coyote nate probably like pigeon john

the stence zing seems more of a drum-riff half-zing joke, i think

Yeah, Braff is sickeningly precious, but come on. There's some 16 year old girl out there who is just discovering cute, precious boys, and comedy at the same time, and they think Braff hung the moon. Why you wanna beat up Braff and make that girl cry? She'll grow out of it, even if Braff won't.

surely someone can work a good zing out of this and get us out of this rut

something along the lines of 'kenan 16 year old girls lol'

quite a lot to unpack there.

WTF, dudes? I think that's a perfectly reasonable thing to say. There are 16 yr old girls in the world -- in fact, over half of the population was one of them at one time -- and we are all aware of their existence. Work a little harder for zingage.

plenty of zings have been made in response to reasonable/defensible statements

if you can zing that you can probably zing every song steely dan ever wrote

the joke was that it was kenan, not that someone said something about 16 year old girls but never you mind me, i dont even make fun of kenan generally

kenan is acting quite the cuntrarian today; i feel he deserves this scorn.

the scorn of BEING IGNORED

when did you start having to "unpack" stuff people wrote?...it's just a bunch of bullshit on the internet, not a steamer trunk.

maybe that was better for a lols thread than a zing thread

knob creek is fucking dreck compared to makers. knob creek on the rocks is like poop in a glass. seriously cardboardy aftertaste that many people have complained about before.. woodford reserve however is on par with the great taste of makers. chaki is truth.
