Literature in Music?

Started by Inspectah Deck15 pages

I wasn't changing the subject though

Wait...I think you've lost yourself. Let's keep in mind that this thread is about literature in music.

So....you weren't changing the subject by claiming hip hop has better literature content (indirect comparison), because the thread is about literature content in music. You were ON topic, I'm not disagreeing. My only confusion is how I was, when I continually discussed (specifically) what genre has the better lyrical content (which is still on topic). How does this work out?

You've either gone back on yourself or gone sideways without telling anyone.

Even more confusing is how this has anything to do with what me and KharmaDog discussed earlier, which is what you seem to be deriving this "You changed the subject" view from. You've gone in multiple directions at once.

😆 Hilarity at its best. What ever floats your boat Watson

What is literature?

This is either-

A) a philosophical question;

or B) a stupid question.

Which is it?

🙂 Just testing the waters here. Your answer will, ofcourse, give me a glimpse into your very soul.

But for the most part, I guess I was just asking a stupid question.

I get what I deserve.

AC, get off Inspectah's case already, you change the subject in many threads with astonishing regularity. Big deal, we all do it at one point or another.

Just drop it and continue with the original subject of the thread.

The fact that he's talking nonsense is not defendable, hence his inability to reply.

Though I admit my puzzlement in you bumping a thread...to tell me to leave him alone...many, many, many hours after I had clearly stopped and finished with him. Sooner or later you're going to run out of reasons, man.

That would have something to do with the fact that I have a life. You see, I don't sit here waiting for people to post to respond (contrary to what you like to believe).

During work hours I sit at, or near, a computer and pop in to see what's happening. During other times I may be away from a computer for hours or even days. So what ends up happening is that I read a post some time after it has been posted. However, this delay in time does not often dictate my response to a post done hours previously.

Does that help you with your current state of being perplexed or baffled?

Dedicating work time to me, nice.

Anyway, if you could clearly see that after his reply, I had not replied to him as I usually would if I wanted to say more (I didn't, it was done), you thought it logical to bump the thread and tell me to get off his case?

No...sorry. I can sit here until...well, forever, and I'll not see the logic there. Maybe because there is none? We don't know.

No, you just come back and kick it off after it's finished. That's nowhere near as bad, clearly. Haha.

Either way, once again I've had to explain the painfully obvious to you in order to get you to understand. How much longer will I have to do this? We don't know, but I suspect a lot.

Ha ha. The arrogance, or maybe just the immaturity of believeing that the world revolves around you. Whatever gets you through the day my friend.

Well we all can be as intelligent as you think you are, right my friend? Perhaps you would have to explain things a little less if you defined you ideas a little better.

Or maybe it's me, yeah that must be it. It must be my failing, and the failing of my education that I cannot grasp your lofty ideals. Or no, maybe it's not. As for the comment "we don't know", do you have some secret friends, or a split personality?

Let's just wrap this all up in a nice package shall we? Good. Because I'm quite weary of your constant childish shadowing of me. You don't like me very much, I don't particularly have any opinion on you because you're quite irrelevant. So instead of you continuing this, as yet, pointless crusade, I'll tell you how things are in detailed fashion so that you can get it:

If you disliked me as much as you claim, if I disgusted you as much as you claim, any logical human wouldn't want anything to do with me. Not you though. So while you're driving the bandwagon of hypocricy by calling me arrogant and lavishing attention on me in threads, whilst claiming you don't care about me and even find me disgusting, all I can do is wonder just how odd you must feel. It's all rather sad.

Uhm, sure, you see you do have an opinion, your opinion is that I am irrelevant. That of course is a ridiculous thing to say because you acknowledge my post and respond to them. You do know what irrelevant means right?

I didn't say I disliked you or that you disgusted me. I said that sometimes I am compelled to respond to you out of disgust. I don't know you so I can't say I don't like you. I do however find many of your posts to be arrogant, ignorant, hypocritical, pretentious and full of self adoration.

What can I say, I am an original. I blaze my own trail.

There you go feeling sad for me. Isn't it odd to feel sad for one you deem irrelevant. As for Hypocrisy, you throw that word around alot. I have pointed out time and time again where you where a hypocrite and I'm not going to go through all that again. As for me, I acknowledge when I am wrong, I also have talked to members who I felt perceived me as arrogant and apologized. Like I've said, I may be cocky, but I'd rather not be seen as arrogant.

Now if you have a further problem with me and my irrelevancy, please PM me. That PM will be ignored, but at least other people won't have to read it either.

Can we please get back on topic as it COULD be a fairly interesting one.

Although the reply leads me to believe it wasn't stupid in the first place. At least in terms of intention.

So you bother with me, why? Why continually interact with me purposefully? Because that is what I've PMed you countless times to try to clear up.

Ironic that you call me a hypocrite, as we'll see at the end.

Saying "let's get back on topic" when we were heading that way before you bumped it with "drop it", isn't something you should be saying when you just spent a page calling me a hypocrite. Just a thought.

You just listed 5 reasons that you strongly dislike my posts. So avoid them, put me on ignore. You'll never have to read them again, I'll never reply to you again. Good? Do we have a deal? Do we have some kind of an understanding? Because I'm not going to continually indulge you.

Trolling with intelligence is still trolling, pal.

PM if you wish to continue this discussion. Unless ofcourse you want the last word in a public forum, in which case, go for it.

I've PMed you many times before in efforts to keep it OFF the forum and keep it minimal, to which you just said you'd ignore my PM.

But as you wish, let's try again.

-AC

You Pm'd me the exact same thing that you just typed here? Odd. But like I said, it will be ignored.

Well then there's a choice isn't there? Either you choose to discuss and possibly solve your problem/grudge with me away from the forum, through PM (as I have always been the first to initiate) or you ignore me (via ignore or willpower) on the forum. Because you need to stop it. So it's in your court now.
