Facts
 
Fugazi bores me.

While noise is a legit form of music, not all noise is music.

Coltrane wasn't the first.

Grinderman is the least interesting of all things Nick Cave.

John Cage says music should show no emotion. Incorrect; music should be all emotion.

Tally Hall is just a fun band.

Velvet Underground is only good when Nico is nowhere in sight.

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, despite it's name, is good baby makin' music.

Animal Collective bores me.

I agree with most of those. But which "most" I dare not speak. *shy-fully covers mouth*

Hey, that's swell, man...

Facts: All of these are opinions. Bravo.

By saying things like "bores me" instead of "is boring," I thought the FACT that these are OPINIONS was pretty obvious. Congrats.

And congratulations to you for using the english language to your advantage in order to make a pointless thread.

Bickety-bam.

And what you said, afterthefact, is quite contrary to what you think you are saying... "It's a fact, but only because it's an opinion... the fact that is an opinion is in no doubt, so therefore it's a fact."

I must say, that is some very George Bush logic (and I don't oft make that comparison... in fact, this is the first time).

I think trying to stop people from making pointless threads on this board is a lost cause.

pbradley 08.25.2007 09:59 PM

Hurrah for both of you and your sarcastic compliments.

drrrtyboots 08.25.2007 10:00 PM

Agreed afterthefact, agreed. And you aren't swa(y) so congratulations on that one too.

afterthefact 08.25.2007 10:00 PM

I've lost track of whether or not I'm actually being sarcastic.

Note: Yes I am not swa(y). And while I have nothing against him as a person, I would imagine that if I were him, I would be somewhat miserable.

You know what annoys the fuck out of me? That every single person on every single god damn forum feels the need to express how much they think the forum sucks all the motherloving time.
Honestly, the "pointless thread" argument is bullshit. Sure, lots of people put pointless shit... but there's also countless more threads WITH a point. If all yr doing on a forum is talking about how lame it's gotten... leave... the satisifed ones will do quite well without you.

*note: this is opinion and not fact, I suppose.

I agree and disagree. I think I could count on one hand the amount of threads that have a legit point to make. I mean they all have a point to some extent; everybody had a reason for starting it. But most are meaningless. That being said, I don't see the need to worry about it. That is the true essence of message boards; you can say whatever crap you want, and it doesn't really have to have a point. We aren't submitting these to the New York Times (or for the extreme left-wingers here, Adbusters) so feel free to projectile vomit any thought you have.

Note: I love using semi-colons, even when they aren't needed; it's just fun.

As someone who takes a great pride in creating threads that are as pointless as possible I have no understanding of people who post ON them, just to criticise them. It shows bad manners towards all the hard work invested by its creator. Anyone can start a thread about global warming, or the like. It takes REAL talent though to start one called simply 'Facts'. And THAT, is a FACT!

Everyneurotic 08.25.2007 10:49 PM

yeah, go spread the word, i'll go burn my records and shape my interests based on your opinions.

afterthefact 08.26.2007 08:27 AM

I would imagine records would just melt. Do they burn? Is that a FACT?
