Describe The Evolution Of Your Music Taste
OK, figured I'd do an update on this since it's been a couple of years. 22-24 I've moved between psychedelic and ambient mainly over the last two years. I have not been confined to these genres however. Tame Impala have been my favourite band over the last couple of years. I've also seen a return to rap/hip hop/rnb and I've revisited many of my favourite bands from the past. What's everybody else been up to?

Culture
Indeed. Culture is not an excuse for anybody. Everybody has the ability to think about a concept themselves and make up their own mind. Culture can explain why people behave they do though, rather than condone it. I am aware of why certain people are racist, but that does not mean that I agree with them, nor that I have any positive feelings towards them in the slightest. I do not excuse them for their beliefs, either. I can simply understand where their opinions may be coming from. Hi!

The Official Club Football 2014-2015 thread
Newcastle v Sunderland has been good so far. My only prediction was Tiote to get sent off. It's looking less likely as he hasn't been his usual thuggish self. Plus Webb is reffing and he rarely gives decisions that actually matter. He'd have loved the BBC's decision on Ding Dong.

No stream for the game, so it appears I won't be watching it after all.

The Official Club Football 2014-2015 thread
If Celtic win I will come away with a princely £7.98! To an unemployed man that's a very decent figure indeed. I hasten to add that the stake money was given to me by my mother, so my dole money isn't being squandered. What a pathetic post. Anyway, I might watch that Ajax/PSV game. I remember going to Ajax's stadium as a kid. Had an Ajax training shirt too.

Should music fans stop filming gigs on their smartphones?
It's a weird culture where people don't seem to be happy unless something is recorded. They need that validation for some reason. Go to the gig, watch it, remember it. It really isn't hard. And it's not as simple as saying it's other people's problem as it appears to be many performers' problem too.

Anyway, off to bed.

Nicki Minaj ♥
She whores herself on screens worldwide and advises girls to stick their chests out. Women are already told by society that they are pieces of meat so I wouldn't imagine that their best role models would be repeating this. If me holding that opinion makes me a dick then that's fine, but my effects are less toxic than hers.

Why is she generally a pretty good role model for girls? Yes it is, but hers is shitter. No.

Allow people to film. Allow people to attack those who film. Then I'll film that.

The Sobriety Thread
Then if you ever choose to do it, do it in a secure place with people you trust who will look after you if needs be. Treat it like an acid trip and take it slow. Be doing something else like chatting/listening to music. It's no huge deal.

Nicki Minaj ♥
Oh, that's a shame. Censorship.

Nicki Minaj ♥
I saw her in an interview and she was acting embarrassed because her boobs were hanging out. Even though she had chosen what to wear. Then she was asked to give advice to young girls and she said something like 'shoulders back, tits out' or something. And her music is shit. SO purely based on those two factors, I reckon she's a ****.

Culture
I can't imagine enforced piercings and tribal life is any form of utopia. It may be less destructive than all the damage we are causing but it's far from 'bringing out the best in everybody'.

Food from another culture that has some importance to that culture?

Even the parts of your culture that you react against shapes you, never mind the aspects you embrace.

Most definitely. Fortunately I don't go to those places often anymore. 25, so getting a bit old for that kind of stuff (on a regular basis). Used to go weekly in my teens/early 20's and the times I've been sober have been awful.

Indeed. There's stuff that is good about it but the consumption is remarkable. In my country too.
