Do me a favor...

I do have to say that I quite like the one song from the right, one from the left.

I approve this thread.

Darius! I'm not sure who has bigger issues, you or your friends. It's a serious situation.

Ok, I'll PM you the address for the FedEx package. Do you have a paypal account where I can cover the S&H?

Go screw yourself.

Once again, I never said they were good, and I especially did not say they were talented. Just that I perversely like one or two of their songs (a little). It's like the chick you want to **** when you're sober even though you know she is ugly.

Given how crappy popular music has been the last decade, it's not a surprise many are checking out the musical equivalent of ugly chicks.

If they're so sick of the ugly chicks around today, then they can go buy some old vintage Playboy issues or something, not shove their ugly new girlfriends in my face.

Very true. Terrestrial radio sucks, at least most places. And I don't think it is going to change. Though I wonder how much of the current musical suckage is because it sucks (and it certainly has a large amount of that) and how much is because I'm getting older. How old are you, Darius, if you don't mind me asking?
Also, how much of the radio sucking is the radio making poor choices on what to play, and how much is it there just not being anything good to choose? (Though both factors contribute, I actually lean toward the latter.)

If by that you mean some sort of introductory/tutorial disc that came with your car, a Chevrolet Chevelle, then we're cool.

I'm in love.

Judging by their penchant for auditory self-torture I'd conclude that they suffer from masochistic personality disorder, though their apparent pleasure at subjecting innocents like myself to the same misery would indicate some degree of sadistic personality disorder as well, or, if they are merely indifferent to my suffering as opposed to reveling in it, then a tinge of sociopathy could be part of it. Self-mutilation is also a telltale sign of borderline personality disorder and depression, and considering the music's incessant, shrill emo-though-pretending-not-to-be-emo whining about how unfulfilling modern life is, depression would appear to be the most likely culprit. However, it's probably a combination of several factors.

I, on the other hand, merely tend to suffer from mild ohrwuhrms (also termed involuntary musical imagery by neurologist Oliver Sacks), which are frequently exacerbated by aforementioned manifestations of my friends' far more severe conditions.

Celine Dion in the other, and Limp Bizkit in the other ear, WHILE getting kicked in the nuts by a midget? Man, that's bad, that's really bad. I think everyone should send these iPods to Darius, he seems to be serious.

It ain't just terrestrial radio though, which one can escape (I haven't listened to that voluntarily for almost a decade); it's friends, acquaintances, roommates, cars, the guy with the volume up to 11 next door, everybody! Especially chicks. And that's another thing - if you don't dig this stuff, it's damn near impossible to get laid. If that's a preprequisite to get any tang these days, I guess the only option is to put a pink streak in my hair, pierce my right ear, and lick some guy's ***hole downtown.

Let's just say the day the music died was before I'd even finished highschool. There are people a decade older than me that still jump on the bandwagon and play this trash on a constant loop too, so it can't have much to do with age.

A) They're only in it to make money, which means play whatever whiny crap will make 16-year-old girls leave wet spots on their seats because they're the most reliable (i.e. pathetically obsessive and overemotional) demographic available, regardless of any semblance of talent or originality. B) There being little to nothing good to choose means nothing; it'd be easier to just reignite appreciation for the vast cornucopia of older stuff than to just shovel "new" (and I use that term strictly in a temporal sense, not in a style sense) horse**** down people's throats so they can pretend to be hip. **** them.
