Why is rock with pop?
I think it'd be better if they grouped together Rock and Metal, and then gave Pop an entire section. Anyone else like that or have any better ideas?

3 AnswersPain & Pain Management8 years agoPS3 *FANBOYS* are angry and hate everything?
Xbox fanboys are usually just idiots or trolls, and PC fanboys are usually cocky about how their system is so much better then consoles, but PS3 fanboys just act like a group of raving, viscious lunatics. Nobody even cared about Bioshock going multi-platform, but a petition was signed by thousands of PS3 owners when Final Fantasy went multi-platform. Oh, and I put fanboys because I wanted to emphasize that I don't mean anyone who enjoys the PS3 or Sony products, but just the Sony ball gurglers.
Why are you fanboys so insane? Is it because Sony fell from number one console by a mile to last place? Because it cost so much f*cking money and you need to justify it 100% at all times to feel like it was worth it? I don't understand it. The pure idiocy I've seen PS3 fanboys do on the internet is hilarious. Worst fanboys. They seem kind of like nazis, "We spent more money on our console so you can't play any of the games we can! If you do, we'll petition and f*ck over the developers!".
2 AnswersPlayStation8 years agoI don't like seeing my psychologist?
He thinks depressed. I told my friends last night after I came back and we all broke out laughing. He says it's because I'm apathetic. His biggest two points are that I'm not taking a very big part in signing myself up for homeschooling (I made the decision to do it, and I picked my classes, I'm just not taking part in the actual signing-up) and that I quit going to school for over a few weeks.
I've told why I did that, I think he just doesn't understand how important my decisions are to myself and why I don't think my current guardians have the right to try and control them by taking away things I already posess, which is what spurred my dropping out. It's also been the same punishment over and over again for the past two and a half years and it's yielded no noticable results or affects on my grades, which have been dynamic but not directly correlating with my punishment at all. Basically, it frustrates me that they continues to do it for no logical reason and of even more importance is that I know exactly what grades I'm getting when I'm getting them and I make the decision consciously. I will not be punished for that. He thinks I'm apathetic. I've had to hold laughter in at multiple times during our two sessions.
He also thinks I'm angry at people, specifically my mother and him durring our sessions. I only feel dissapointment in people, frustration at situations, and I know he's only doing his job. Honestly, I think it's because I don't like going and I sit there, aloof to the conversation, giving simple one-word responses. He's also said my words don't match my actions, or what he percieves them to be, but I've been sitting there with an indifferent vibe since the second appointment, and he does say I'm apathetic, right? How are my words and his opinion of me any different? That makes me doubt his ability. By the way, I'm 14 and apparently that means I'm incapable of understanding anything about life, like the fact that if I continued to skip I get sent before a judge for truency. Oh, really? I thought I could sit on my *ss and nothing would happen! That was sarcasm. Please, someone give and educated answer on what I should do in my . . . situation?
I've told my grandmother I don't want to go, I understand myself and I probably sound narcissistic and pretentious in all this but I promise you I'm not, I'm just tired of it. All of it. I bet I wouldn't be in half as bad a situation if everyone just stayed nuetral and let me do my own thing. And don't just credit all this to me being a hard-headed, rebeling teen that wants interdependance. I want to be inderdependant on myself but it's not just because I'm a teen, it's who I am, my ideals. If I look back and I think I made bad decisions I'll know who chose them, myself. It makes accountability a lot more clear cut, doesn't it?
I really hope I didn't type all this for nothing.
3 AnswersPsychology8 years agoWhy is pop music so bad?
I don't even just mean today, most popular music has been sh*tty forever, it just spiraled out of control in the 80's. I've heard these "catchy" songs, they get boring as hell pretty quick. The only popular song I like I've heard in a while is "Gangman Style". That song's not as bad as anything else I've heard, and ironically, the people who say it sucks don't mind listening to a JB song every once in a while. Weird sh*t, huh? I guess I just don't understand my fellow young people and their music. Most popular bands I don't mind have something or someone redeeming in the band. Queen for example, do I even need to explain who made them? GS retains it's catchiness while not being a total snoozefest and the music video is pretty funny. Then you have sh*t like "Love Shack" and "Baby". Decades apart and totally horrible. Pop's like 7/8's crap. I'm sorry for ranting, but people drive me crazy sometimes. I blame Elvis and the fact that he just ripped off black people. It was like he was forshadowing the sleazyness and mediocrity to come.
How much of pop do you like? All, some, none? Do you think it was ever better? ANSWER THE QUESTION!
11 AnswersRock and Pop8 years agoWhy do feminists hate Chivalry?
Does feminism always come with retardation? Something that probably saved women's live's and vaginas(some seem to think they're both equally important) is shunned by feminists? Or is it's modern day form shunned? Open a door for a woman, YOU F*CKING SEXIST!
I'm going to be the most chivalrous motherf*cker ALIVE!
P.S. Why, just WHY does anything like that even begin to bother you? I'm starting to think a good chunk of feminists are lacking self-esteem.
7 AnswersOther - Society & Culture8 years agoGhost(band) is overrated?
Okay, okay, so I don't care that much if people over-hype and I don't want to name the guy who wrote this or where I found, but I'll let you know it was on a Ghost video on youtube. If you don't know who Ghost are, they're a metal band with a lot of influences from 70's bands and they got really popular in 2010 and then even more popular after they went on Hellfest or something.
Here's a video of them
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CaAb421KUhk
Here's the youtube comment that almost made me piss my pants
"Ghost is a band that will go down in history. I don't think I can even begin to describe how ahead of their time they are... and I think sadly, they will never get the recognition they deserve. Ghost is more than a ghoulish band with costumes that delivers a satanic message, they present evil in the most vicious way ever presented by mankind. This is not an overstatement. Ghost is one of the most talented bands of all time."
Any other metal fans wondering what the hell he's talking about?
6 AnswersRock and Pop8 years agoItunes library is messed up?

I deleted them both and re-imported the CD to itunes and track 1 has it's own CD and so do 2-8? And now the next CD on the list is messed up exactly the same as the first one too! It's the tracks in the same order as the last ones as well! 3-8 are still there but 1-2 and their own album! WTF!!!!! PLEASE HELP ME!
2 AnswersSoftware8 years agoWhy is my school so horrible?
My school isn't in the ghetto and it doesn't get bad ratings but I find it horrible.
I've probably learned a myriad of more things about myself and the world at home then this year at highschool. I'm a freshmen and out of all seven of my periods Biology Honors is the only class I think is even worth my time.
My english class feels condescending, my computer class entails the teacher sitting on her *ss and doing nothing while we do typing exercises and exactly reproduce documents from a book on microsoft word, and in my wolrd/culture geography class the teacher has us answer questions in the form of an outline. That's not that bad, but the question to paragraph ratio is so outrageous I think she doesn't even know what it means to OUTLINE. My agriculture class is nothing but answering questions from the book chapters, which I find hilarious considering the class is called Ag. Science, we have ducks, rabbits, a garden, and fish but all we do is sit inside and do book work. We spend two out of three days in my PERSONAL FITNESS CLASS DOING BOOK WORK. Like writing definitions and doing sh*tty little handouts. My math class is my math class. What are ya gonna do. I've quite going to school for the past two weeks, and will probably end up doing virtual school even though I don't want to, but what other options do I have? Go through BS for another five months? And then another three years if I get stuck with non-advanced classes again because I HATE the ones I have now?
I reposted this from an answer I just wrote so it might seem a little choppy. Anyway, I really like my Bio Honors class because he actually teaches. And I'd probably like math but I'm not that good at it so that kind of detracts from my enjoyment. Anyway, why is my school so sh*tty? Why are most my classes so mind numbingly wretched? WHAT'S HAPPENED TO AMERICA!? OR HAS IT ALWAYS BEEN THIS WAY!?
2 AnswersPrimary & Secondary Education8 years agoAmerican feminists don't believe in equal rights?
Why does feminism still exist in America unless it's pushing sexism towards men? Woman have better off in a lot instances over men here. Courts usually favor woman in most crimes and if a woman is pregnant the baby's father is practically her f*cking pawn.
1 AnswerOther - Society & Culture8 years agoFinding a good bassist hard?
Is it hard to find a good metal bassist? I don't want a bassist that totally follows along with the guitars and does some showy BS once or twice in each song, I want a good bassist that knows how to hold his own and make the music interesting while still being a good bassist.

2 AnswersRock and Pop8 years agoCalling Sherrif's department over phone scam?
These guys kept calling us and telling us there's some virus on the computer, then they had my grandmother open a series of boxes and read off a number on the computer. They claimed they were microsoft, I don't think I believe them and my grandmother doesn't. She's going to call the cops about it and. . . well, would they even do anything? It kind of seems like an overreaction to me. The caller seemed indian too so if it's not Microsoft we're talking about some international scam company(one of what, thousands?) and it seems moot to call the police.
3 AnswersLaw Enforcement & Police8 years agoTaylor Swift got ugly?
I don't listen to her, but I've been hearing her on the radio for a few years and saw a music video of her a few years ago and thought she was kind of beautiful. Now I think she looks dreadful. The straight hair, the red lipstick. . . . What the hell happened to her? I don't even know why I don't like it but. . . jeez she looks nasty or something. I don't f*cking know. I just find her very unnatractive now and I don't know why. Anyone else feel that way or know what I mean? I don't think she looks as healthy or something.
I'm gonna flat out say she doesn't look human. I don't know if she uses more make-up now or not, but she looks like a mass of products and flesh(*shudders a little*).
6 AnswersRock and Pop8 years agoRecovered hotmail account?
I didn't know my hotmail account's password but I was supposed to get an important email on it from a company, but we recovered it and now there's no mail in it. The account's been around for 3 or 4 years so how can there be no mail in, not even any junk mail? Was all of it deleted? If so, that's TOTALLY f*cked me over and I'm never making a hotmail account again.
2 AnswersOther - Internet8 years agoWhy are people so intolerable of different movies?
Why do people score movies so harshly if they don't. . . I guess, conform(?) to the usual? Movies like Watchmen and No Country for Old Men seem like they've been scored much more harshly than the usual fare. If people are going to harshly criticize anything that comes out of the usual boundaries, why don't they just watch their favorite movie over and over again? Most of the d*mn criticisms seem like the come from personal bias, WHICH SHOULD NOT AFFECT THE SCORE. Critisizing The Grey's bad CG wolfs is understandable, saying the emotional and philosophical undertones are unnecessary is complete bullsh*t and without them the movie would be your run-of-the-mill thriller. What the f*ck do people think when they review things? Personal opinion shouldn't hamper your ratings when they're just that, PERSONAL OPINION. Say what the theme is and tell us what it's about, then list it's technical flaws and negate them from it's final score accodingly. YOU DON'T SAY IT'S A SH*T MOVIE BECAUSE YOU DISAGREE WITH IT'S THEME, THAT PUTS OFF PEOPLE WHO MIGHT LIKE IT.
F*ck, I'm sorry, but does anyone know where I'm coming from here? I don't care if people dislike a movie, but you shouldn't say it's bad when you dislike something subjective, like a character's hair cut or the setting.
2 AnswersMovies8 years agoHalo 4 class weapons?
What ya like using? I think the DMR a little OP and they should give it more bloom or something, but other than that I'm diggin the custom class primaries. I was using mah covvy cabine for a while but switched to the AR recently. I think I prefer fast paced gameplay in Halo and with a DMR it's all about your location, meanwhile with an AR it's all about getting a good position on the enemy and traversing the map. I'm about to get on the forums and start something about the AR taking skill.
1 AnswerVideo & Online Games9 years ago10th grade honors English class?
I hate my current 9th grade English class and was wondering how much different honors or AP is. I feel belittled, disguisted, and insulted by some of the questions we're asked that seem to suggest the intention of "provoking" our minds. The only homework assignment I've ever done in that class was to answer that question "What is like to have a sibling, or if you don't, what is it like to not have a sibling". I did not in fact answer the question, but wrote an essay explaining why I found the latter a preposterous question to ask someone who's never had a sibling. In short, I wrote to express how stupid I believe it is to ask someone how it is to "not" have something, when they have never in fact had it and can only speculate, therefore making their answer not entirely truthful, and honestly, f*cking pointless. I never turned it in, and I may seem like a smart*ss, but I really am looking for a solution to my problem.
Again, the question implied a feeling of loss, which is impossible to feel for something that's never existed or been had. What would I put if I really answered the question? A summary of my daily life? What the f*ck. My english teacher needs to go back to english class, or at least learn how to restate questions so they make sense.
". . . or what do you think it would be like to have a sibling?" THERE, IS THAT TOO F*CKING HARD FOR A 50 SOMETHING YEAR OLD WOMAN THAT'S SUPPOSED TO TEACH US THINGS IN THIS LINE OF KNOWLEDGE?????
Uhhh, I don't even know what I'm talking about anymore, American public education is dying, if not already rotting on the sidewalk in front of a Walmart.
1 AnswerPrimary & Secondary Education9 years agoPity for Christian friend?
Has anyone here ever felt kind of torn because of their friend's religion? I've only had one friend that has ever made me feel this dark, brick wall in front of them when I think of their beliefs. And I ask myself, why? He's Christian and it seems to totally rip though his character. If there's anyone I know who would question things, not just religion, but the world and how it works, it would be him. I don't know if it's really pity for him (because I know it doesn't really matter THAT much) or if it's spawned by my utter feeling of dissapointment in the human mind because such perplexing, and seemingly illogical paradoxes can be spawned from ourselves.
To go further, I don't think anyone really has the answer to the question within the question, so I don't really think this post will give me any real satisfaction. *sigh*. I expect patronizing answers from people who don't really want to answer the question, and all sh*t from Christians will be ignored, because most Christians not only take part in hypocrisy when attacking atheists, but also refuse to acknowledge that they are, IN FACT, hypocritical. I could write an essay explaining that last part, but I can't, so please, just p*ss off.
2 AnswersFriends9 years agoHalo 4's multiplayer?
Anyone else think Halo's been ruined? The multiplayer is shizz now. There's no challenge, I pick up that LMG thing or a shotgun and we've won the game. On my first Halo 4 game, after not playing Reach or Halo 3 for months, I went 26 and 16 then boosted up to level 4. The perks, the armor abilities, the custom classes, that's all fine, but f*cking with the power weapons and adding the ordinance system f*cked Halo. It's takin the Halo out of Halo. I hope you're all happy to see Master Chief get f*cked up the *ss by 343. Plus the armor looks sh*tty. Just sayin.
3 AnswersXbox9 years agoRespected metal band?
What are the metal bands you respect the most? Please don't pick the obvious. I'd say I'm leaning towards Atheist and WatchTower. Atheist's influence has been almost entirely overshadowed by Death even though Unquestionable Presence was released earlier in the year and quite frankly I think it's much more groundbreaking than Human. There was nothing like Unquestionable Presence at the time and their hasn't been since. I feel the same way about WatchTower. Doug keyser's bass playing is phenomenal.
