I cannot believe how quickly its transpired that people can’t pick up on very, very obvious sarcasm. I genuinely can’t.

The number of homeless children has increased by 50% n 6 months.

“We should grind them up and feed them to the Rottweilers guarding the multi-billionaire’s properties so they can save money on dog food and help create more jobs!”

“You WHAT?!!? These are CHILDREN!!”

the /s wasn’t a thing pre covid. I dont get it,

fair enough. I kinda think if you think all BR sounds the same that you might think all Iron Maiden or Nine Inch Nails or Primus or The Doors sound the same, but I do get what you mean.

There are actually two primary song writers, Greg Graffin and Brett Guerwitz, and the album splits are about 50/50. Most of my favorite songs tend to be Guerwitz tunes. If you dont dig the whole BR gestalt then its gonna get old even if I think the songs I listed are pretty radically different. Il do get what you’re saying, though.

They deeeefinitely don’t do a lot of promotion of Into the Unknown. The only release of it after the initial cassette and CD release in SoCal was a pressing they made for their box set of their entire catalogue.

Id actually be interested to see if you thought Graffin’s bluegrass solo stuff sounds “samey” also:

It was not difficult to stand up to defend the world’s greatest punk band of all time (who’s lead singer has a Ph.D. and has taught Evolutionary Biology at UC Berkley (I think, somewhere in California)

YOOOOOOOO sorry but this is my all time favorite band and Ive gotta stick up for them. They have an unmistakable signature sound, yes, but not every song sounds the same like AC/DC par examplé as other people have rightly cited.

If you’d kindly take 2 mins to listen to a bit of the following songs I pulled off the top of my head and are still willing to say all their songs sound the same then I dont know what to say:

Here’s the standard kinda song you’re probably thinking about, You off of No Control:

Then put on Struck a Nerve from Recipe for Hate:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vY-EXZkXWYA

Then Television from Stranger than Fiction:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-8hlEAJZdM

Then Turn Your Back on Me from Dissent of Man:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0Pqt38l_qTk

Then Faces of Grief from Age of Unreason:

Thanks. For extra credit, they also had an album they kind of would everyone to forget about that was leaning into a kind of proggy sound, closer to The Who than their own sound if you want something thats way off in the wilderness:

they will be ok in life

goooooo fuck yourself

this is the only explanation as to why he wouldnt say what the item is.

the “dents” part makes me think its a fleshlight instead of a full fuck doll, though.

contains ETOMIDATE, an ingredient in general anesthesia that blocks pain signals and makes you feel drowsy.

Yeah I dont know. I work in a field where I hear a lot of the details of people’s employment stories and if I can tell you one universal thing its that women need to be 5x better than a confident sounding man in order to be taken half as seriously.

never underestimate how much the world dislikes a woman who knows more than anything than they do

if you havent been paying attention closely enough to notice that american voters do not want a woman in the white house im not sure what to tell you

the joke doesnt work anywhere cause its fuckin stupid. coke being short for coca-cola and cocaine is a gag kids learn to make when they’re 13 years old

I cannot BELIEVE taco bell ever even had a tostada and now im missing it entirely

thanks I was gonna type all that out 👌

I think Altered Beast also had a level on a tortiose’s back but I might be mis-remembering

fuckin stupid

hm. Id see it differently. kill animal -> eat animal 👌

kill animal -> let its body rot in the refrigerator while my hungover ass orders thai food is the closest I get to calling something a sin. its a crime against ecology imo.

I get what youre saying though, I just definitely see it through a different lens

yeah? Im not saying thats right but as a person who builds things with LEDs, if you give them too much voltage without the right resistor they burn out quicikly

no I hate, and I mean hate smart speakers and all generative ai.

I would 100% be up for a fridge that keeps track of its contents’ expiry dates via qr and could display warnings when things are going off. I hate wasting food, especially animal products (I already feel guilty enough) so if my fridge said the smoked salmon had 3 days left I’d be into that. now, it retaining my data and sharing it with anyone would be a complete dealbreaker so

I’m not shocked that Danish politicians sincerely believe they know what is good for EU citizens more than EU citizens do.

Tolkien didn’t whip up Lothlorien elves contemptuousness out of thin air. I’ll go ahead and apologize globally for my unabashed prejudice here. Sorry.

What shocks me is the shameless lack of concern for the democratic ideals of the EU by the leadership of the EU which I normally have broad respect for.

Propose a vote, get a NO. Propose it again! NO. Propose it again, NO. Find another way, force it. It’s tantamount to abuse and its shameful.

I can only hope against hope that the “all measures” verbiage doesn’t include all the worst interpretations that we fear. I’m so fucking sick of worrying about this issue. It feels like abuse, it really does.

I’m sorry for my prejudicial attitude against Danish politicians. You are free to arguably justifiably make me feel bad about it. One time I was in Copenhagen and other than Christiana being kind of cool, they had hot dogs in a kind of baguette tube and I thought that had some merit.

im a serial boarding pass printer. my digital trusting wife would smirk and psssht.

then, on one fateful day, the dumb fucking app failed and I waltzed through security with my shitty piece of paper.

how I grinned and nodded whilst eating a chicken sandwich at the airport bar/restaurant when I had another 15 minutes to spare after she had to go over to the check-in desk and get a boarding pass printed.

I have yet to bring it up in the middle of an unrelated argument but ive still got it in my back pocket
