    list of things that piss me off:
    rappers


    What? Why? There's some really, really good ones if you dig through the genre enough.


    You don't hate Andre 3000, do you?


    A vote against Andre 3000 is a vote for killing puppies.


    Think of the puppies!

    Quote from Jetpack-guy

    i love the beatles and music from a website called DFTBA Records (dftba stands for don't forget to be awesome) and a lot of youtube musicians


    DFTBA? That's Chameleon Circuit's label, right? They're awesome.

  • Occupations & School

    Quote from Caribou

    I'm the assistant manager of the greatest pub in existence, and a part-time musician. I've got a degree in Film Studies that I've never used for anything, it's a hell of a hard industry to break into if you're not 100% committed and I realised sometime in my second year that my heart wasn't in filmmaking enough to make a career out of it. It's always been about the music more than anything for me.


    >Degree in Film Studies
    >Goes to work in a pub.


    I like your style.

    Quote from Caribou

    Holy crap, you're fourteen? :o Man, from your tastes and the way you write I had you pegged as mid-twenties or so.


    Haha, thanks. I hide my age on quite a lot of the web communities I'm a part of since most people tend to dismiss anything someone below the age of 16 has to say. And well, I'm a very opinionated person, so I tend to get pretty pissed when others dismiss my views. And yeah, I'm a bit of a grammar nazi, whether it's down to poor grammar being a pet peeve or that I'm probably just a pretentious arsehole, so that kind of gives others the impression that I'm older than I actually am.


    But y'all seem like a nice bunch'a fellas.


    Concerning my taste, it's probably because I have a very musical family, have been going to gigs since I was about 7, and was raised on stuff like Hendrix, Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin, so I have my parents to thank for that.

  • Your hobbies

    Playing music, mostly. My main instrument is bass, but I'm getting better at guitar now.


    Also, I've started regularly buying comics monthly, so you can consider that to be a hobby if you want.

    Linkin Park rapped? Damn, I never new...


    Listen to their earlier stuff, man. It may not be very good rap, but it's still rap.

    Quote from ViralMonster

    Linken Park, I think he means.


    I know. I was commenting on the hypocrisy of hating Rap music while liking Linkin Park. Unless he means the modern "god I'm so whiney" non-rap Linkin Park.
