[nikfrozty]

Ok then. Really sorry and I don't blame some people here who now hates my name nikfrozty. Maybe they are fans or something. Again I apologize and fine won't start anything like this again.

Yeah really guys gEEZE. Listen guys I am the ultimate musical authority in the universe and right now I am going to tell you all how it is.
Bands that do not suck:
Meshuggah, Tool, Opeth, Devin Townsend/SYL, Cynic, Dillinger Escape Plan, Noisia, Spor, Pendulum, Excision, Textures, The Faceless, Battles, King Crimson, Periphery(past), B-Complex.
Bands that suck:
Every other band except bands that I forgot about.

And that's just the way it's gotta be.

(Although I'm not that much of a music enthusiast, so I don't know what half of those bands are...)

Half? That's like 30% more than most people I meet.

Disturbed sucks.

Alright dude, I hope you don't take that argument any further, even though I'm more into rap, disturbed, Linkin Park, Slipknot, Cradle of filth are the few Rockbands who I think actually "Rock" but anyways, you probably meant that in the most non-offensive way possible so I'll let it slide. Then again, I guess we're all entitled to our own opinions so you probably have your reasons, heck if I named some of the artists I listen to, a lot of people would probably disagree the same way. ;D

 

[ScottMcTony]

Linkin Park

This is worse than Bieber. This is, in fact, worse than Miley Cyrus. Oh yes we've got a real problem indeed.

I'm talking about before New Divide, they suck now, I'm only interested in there old jams like in the end and all the songs that had a kind of rap feel to it.

 

[ScottMcTony]

They were equally bad then.

 

[halkun]

I don't think she's that bad... Here watch this video

Are we taking about the same person?

 

[idl12]

They were equally bad then.

Like I said, I'm more into rap so that's why mostly their older songs appeal to me the only serious bands I like are the ones I mentioned earlier, Someone who is really into the stuff will most-likely agree with you. ;D

 

[ScottMcTony]

Problem: Solved.
If you happen to like cLOUDDEAD or Dub FX (not rap exactly but a lot closer than anything else I listen to) then, um, Problem: Double-Solved.

Damn... I gotta admit, that dub fx guy is pretty good, can't say the same for those clLOUDEAD guys though, I'm more a fan of guys like Eminem(probably the only one I actually buy the albums for) and 50cent(yeah, I know), other than that, just about eveybody from d12, usually things similar to their style and by that I mean anything with random violence involved, hence the reason I listen to guys like disturbed ..hehe but I really like dub fx, it's a shame I never actually heard about him before.  :-D

Stop bashing him. If you think he's gay then just don't listen to him or don't pay attention to him.

I could post a thread about how I think you're gay and what would that solve? Nothing.

Disturbed sucks.

I'm not a Disturbed fan so don't think I'm offended but isn't that a bit hypocritical?

 

[halkun]

DROPPPING PLATES!!!!!!

Maybe he really just meant don't call things "gay" like that? Doesn't sound like he did though.. yeah, damn that dirty hypocrite!
Suddenly everyone reading this feels compelled to click the following link for it is a link of pure truth and glory:

Because see I am plugging my taste in music because this thread is just so pointless anyway.

No it doesn't. He said "Stop bashing him"; the word bashing has nothing to do with calling someone gay.


On another note, I agree with Prince Lex, people need to stop using the word gay in a negative context.

 

[ScottMcTony]

Oh and something about how using gay to mean bad is offensive etc etc.
(aww strikethrough doesn't work in a post title?)

You're clearly not taking this seriously. Which is fine, it is the internet after all - a person shouldn't really expect to come on to the board he's known for ten years without experiencing some homophobic comments disguised as playground talk.

I'm aware that half of this community nowadays could probably care less, but comments like "Justin Bieber is gay" are detrimental to the integrity of this place. Not to mention offensive to me - personally. I don't really give a sh*t what anyone thinks about gay people in general, and I'm also aware that the author of this thread probably meant no harm, but the problem lies with throwing words like "gay" around negatively. Theres f.uck all wrong with being gay, and I'm sick and tired of having to argue with people to get them to have a bit of tolerance about how other people might feel.

So I guess now I'm not only a grammar nazi, but a political-correctness nazi too.

This post may seem a bit aggressive, but this is around the fifth time I've had to post about homophobia on this forum over the years, and I am very very very tired of it.

And nikfrozty, thank you for apologising. This is the completely unrelated board - you can say whatever the hell you want about Justin Bieber in my opinion, just watch the terms you use, OK?

Hey man I agree I just, really could not be bothered forming that argument while posting from school, in class. The thing I usually see is that, by now, when gay is used that way, there usually isn't any conscious link to homosexuality at all. The problem is, gay is still very much coupled to homosexuality, enough that everyone reading or hearing at least briefly considers is, and it sort of, I guess, linguistically enables homophobias continued existence.
Now, in the similar case of fag, although it could be said to do the same, I take a different opinion about how that one should be approached. I think fag is probably in such wide use in generic contexts by my generation, and starting to come decoupled from any homophobic contexts enough that any assumption of bad faith is likely to just lengthen the period before it simply becomes a shift of word usage and stops being homophobic.
Of course I could be wrong, and while it is a pretty vast reservoir of anecdotes in this case, it is still being anecdotal.

@therage800: Yeah I know that I started my previous post that way for reasons that are already unknown to me.
