  1. What, the steep rise in unconsenting sheep being shagged this year? And I'm not joking - after a recent, comprehensive survey conducted by the Uk Agricultural Association, it turns out that up to 31% of farmers, or anyone directly associated with that farmer (sons / retarded brothers etc), regularly perform lewd acts on a variety of farmyard animals, ranging upwards from the obvious (and generally excusable) wooly fellows, to the downright sinister - calfs still under the age of three days apparently a keenly sought delicacy to bestiality connoisseurs all over the country, some known to camp for weeks outside fields in lustful anticipation of heavily pregnant Daisy's sweaty deposit. It's all in the data - absolutely true.
  2. ...ah, but you said: A rather broad phrase.
  3. Bought the music online for 50p!
  4. I could sell you one of these is you want something compact and easy to use.... Tascam 424MkIII Four Track Recorder from zZounds.com! Was great for several years of guitar / vocal type recordings.
  5. Cheers. Been learning Bach's Prelude 1 in C Major yesterday and today. Music reading is just a bit sketchy and slow, one of the things I can improve without a teacher though. I'm considering getting lessons if I can get properly 'into' it on my own (besides, the amount of sitting around I've done this summer, I don't really have an excuse for not being a virtuoso by October!). Aphex Twin's Avril 14th is also a really enjoyable piece to play - there's plenty of clips on youtube if you haven't heard it.
  6. Pretty horrific; over-exaggerated, arrogant, cheesy and dated. I don't think the fact he is 'only 14' should warrant allowances either.
  7. And yet he wields more power than a bunch of good, honest hetros like us. Disgraceful.
  8. Looking for recommendations for relatively easy and satisfying piano pieces. I learned as a kid and have messed around for a while but now looking to possibly get lessons and take it seriously. Worked out Fur Elise yesterday - technique probably sucks; it's more about getting the notes just now. Cheers.
  9. Oh well, semantics and pedantics in the end!
  10. So you suggesting that your point is not a 'point of fact' but one of 'opinion'? Who ever heard of that?
  11. I'd probably just go for ebay and amazon for the sheer number of people searching them, presuming of course that the music you're selling is of no real value (rare, collectors)?
  12. You and Hitler would've made great chums. EDIT: or any female gossip columnist; both work.
  13. What's wrong with Amazon and Ebay?
  14. Because it was posted on a public video-hosting site. Again, banging on about 'rights'. What exactly stops me from having the right to an opinion on it?
  15. The human plight...is the polishing and...refinement...of theories....disregarding what is wrong...keeping what is less wrong...in order to one day....find truth....otherwise, what purpose is there....other than... selfish, meaningless existence?
  16. Sighting last night around 10pm beside Boots. I gave the guy a good stare aswell, just to make sure it was him...so I could report it on here...... I did good, didn't I?
  17. A 'point' would generally be thought of as a universally agreed upon or proven 'truth'. An opinion is not necessarily a valid point.
  18. Whereas in the 70s - and the absence of the internet - people were exposed to a lot less variety, resulting in fewer 'niches' and a more generalised mass taste. Elton John in this scenario has wrongly interpreted the broadening out of the music currently listened to and simply 'available' as being the lost, searching souls of a population in need of great musical inspirations. No doubt if the internet was destroyed and Jimi Hendrix resurrected we'd all drop to our knees and come together in the name of fantastic music at last found again..
  19. What, that music was all-around 'better' in the 70s?
  20. How about just '...anyway, i love you...because... you mean everything to me...' in the fashionably sluggish, remarkably bland, characterless accent of the North-East middle-class?
  21. It was really funny to see one of the chefs at my old work - thirty years old, convicted sex offender, vicious foul-mouthed bastard - banging on about how quickly he finished the latest Potter...
  22. But, if you think about it, this is actually what happens. Think for a second of 'culture', quite simply, as shared beliefs, attitudes and practices within a community. You seem to be suggesting an individuality and detachment from said community, brought about by consciously 'not paying attention' to popular things which disinterest you, subsequently remaining unmoved. I think that it's impossible to detach youself from the culture that fundamentally contains you, physically and mentally - shared beliefs growing and changing together, influencing one another. So if the over-riding mental exertion of a culture that you belong to amounts to HP worship.... I depend on this culture for certain things, which means I need to participate, and thus, can't merely 'switch off' and remain unaffected by the things that don't interest me. ...more for the sake of argument than a particular gripe against Mr Potter.
