I didn't call you A pumpkin, did I? It wasn't a stab at patronising you either, I'll leave it to you.
Hahaha! Good one, are you here all week? That was amazing. "Im not anal towards anything."
This coming from a female who had one of the highest counts of bans to her name (notorious for banning infact) and abused her mod powers to threaten people into replying how she wants on a number of occassions. Yeah, you'd never use those powers to your disadvantage, because you're not anal are you?
I respect other people's right to like whatever they choose. Music taste is totally subjective and you'll never see me claim otherwise. So in that you must respect my right to say something is shit, if you are allowed to say it's good. Clear? Schplendid.
My point, since you drove past it at 100mph, was this; Do you like his songs because of what he looks like?
And the last car crosses the line. That wasn't the uphill struggle you've made it out to be, was it?
Why didn't you answer in such a way when you replied to the post in which I stated the opinion fairly?
I mean, it's not because you're anal and hate people questioning your opinion. Because you're not like that at all.

I admit Beyonce is one hot looking mama! Her songs are catchy and she's mainstream as hell....still....she's one HOT CHICK! Whether they're mainstream or underground or whatever...people find them attractive....there is nothing wrong with that. Really...she's hot!
People find Paul attractive...nothing wrong with that either.
Nothing wrong with thinking a musician is hot, at all. My point, was that the music should come first. If you think a singer is hot, buy a poster, not the CD. That's why mainstream music is so shit, because people do that.
Go to http://www.freetranslation.com/, and type in "El niņo molesto que necesidades aprenden a hablar a sus ancianos." and you'll likely like find a picture of your self. (That would qualify as a "Joke", albeit it's probably true.)

Is there something really evil in mainstream? You do know that if you don't like it...don't buy it. Simple as that...you can be a hardcore whatever...other people like other stuff...so what? They're not spending your money. Why would anyone care?
Oh, of course. People are naturally free to do whatever they want and what I'm saying is purely from my own point of view.
I just think it's a disgrace when people are viewed, biasedly, as talented because of how they look. IE: Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Fall Out Boy.

You acknowledge your own point of view AC. How about you acknowledge their point of view.
Britney Spears, Justin, Fall out boy....I mean come on. Different strokes for different folks. I'm not out to change the world nor fix it. People like them...find them talented...oh well. What else you gonna do?
Not too sure where everyone is missing the multiple times that I've said people are free to listen to, and to like, whatever they choose. Because if you had done so, there wouldn't be this continual idea that I am trying to stop people listening.
Preference is subjective. If you prefer Britney Spears to Metallica, Justin to Tool or Fall Out Boy to Bob Dylan, I am in no position to say "You're wrong." Nor would I ever do so, as I keep having to reiterate.
However, people who claim Justin is some amazingly talented singer, or that Britney is a great musician, these people are incorrect. It can be proven, because talent is measurable.
Talent isn't subjective, at all. Never was, never will be.
Besides, you don't know how many people other moderators have banned, nor how many I have banned to date, so you're just talking out of your ass now (now? No, I mean ''again'')
No.
Very good.

I know that you have a high amount of bans to your name on good authority from another mod. I never talk out of my ass, I always back things up. Hence why you don't like dealing with me.
Yes, in reply to the last one:
Thanks for that lovely dose of relevance. You may step aside now.
You're saying I missed where I said it? No, I'm pretty sure others are. Otherwise people wouldn't be under the impression that I am trying to force people not to listen to things.
You know how people should know that? Because I've said it many times.

Neither you or I for that matter is the authority to tell these people are incorrect. As I said different strokes for different folks. I don't find Justin or Britney or anyone else in mainstream appealing. Neither for Tool or System of a Down or even Green day. I do find bands like U2 and REM appealing. So because I find U2's and REM music to be more appealing t to me does that mean I'm gonna go the Tool or Green Day fanbase and tell them I find their music less talented than U2? PLEEAASE!!!! Not gonna happen because...
1. Both Bands are totally different
2. Different tastes
3. They gonna tell to [BEEP] myself.
You're welcome to disagree with my tastes. Just like I can disagree with yours....is like if everyone likes Chocolate Cake that means Strawberry Cake won't taste good because I'm use to eating Chocolate.

It's not different strokes if we're talking about actual talent. That's nonsense. Utter nonsense.
You believe that someone can sit down and raise a credible argument by saying: "Madonna is a much more talented guitar player than Joe Satriani"? If the answer is "Yes" then the answer is "No". Because it's a fact she isn't. You can't prefer who is better at something.
If you prefer the music made by one band to another, that is entirely subjective and again you are covering old ground.
Yes, so are you planning to read my posts and realise that I said TASTE is subjective? Not talent? Taste?
If you could do that sometime soon I'd be grateful, just so I don't have to keep bringing it up that I've said it. I'm not trying to say one taste is provably better than another. So if that's what you have a problem with, don't. It was never my point.
Nope, Im afraid it stopped when I commented on Sean Paul's looks...
Look AC - Sean Paul has a cute and catchy songs - and i find him attractive. One of the reasons I find him attractive is that he is Jamaican. If he was white, fat Britishman i wouldnt be in this thread.
Ok?
Get over it!

But you would still like his songs if he looked that way, right? If they were the same? You've said you would, so there we go.
Funny how you've answered my question twice, simply and concisely in about 15 minutes, yet it took you many posts of bitching to get there. Next time, don't be so ironically pissed off that your opinion is being questioned and just answer a question.
