Sebald Lifecrafter Member # 3310	written Monday, August 9 2004 22:25 Profile #22 quote: Originally written by Wholly Halfhearted: Disliking a particular genre of music due to qualms with its lyrics or "message" is very foolish. I'll quite willingly label any individual that judges a piece of music by the quality of its lyrics to be a downright idiot. If words are the most important part of a song to you, go read a goddamn poem. Or listen to Bob Dylan. See, that's what I call being narrow-minded. A piece of music consists of four components: rhythm, melody, harmony and lyrics. Of these, melody is most important, closely followed by lyrics and harmony (this is how I think, some would place harmony above lyrics and perhaps above all). Lyrics are what define a piece of music, and add the meaningful dimension. Songs are indeed messages, not just some sweet notes arranged in a row for your amusement. A piece of music without words can never convey such thoughts and feeling as a song with really good lyrics. One can indeed judge music by the lyrics. I don't listen to rap or hip hop, since they don't give me any kicks. I'm not familiar with their world and the values they preach are silly. In conclusion, I cannot listen to a good piece of music if the words and the message are pathetic. I can bring myself to listen to a crappy melody if the words are intriguing (including Bob Dylan, as you mentioned). Music is not made just to satisfy my sense for beauty, it is much more. I don't listen to it only in order to get cheap satisfaction. -------------------- ahhahaha i rule u droool Posts: 756 \| Registered: Monday, August 4 2003 07:00

Vlish & Illithid in General
Sebald Lifecrafter Member # 3310	written Thursday, July 22 2004 20:08 Profile #4 Which is weird, right? Why would a land-living creature develop tentacles? You have to assume they are for grasping things with, maybe stuffing in food in the mouth. And why would any creature develop both arms and tentacles? The huge brains of the Illithids would suggest they are a highly advanced race, so why do they still carry a bunch of tentacles in their face? Is there magic in them or what? Humans understood to get rid of useless tails a long time ago, hah! -------------------- ahhahaha i rule u droool Posts: 756 \| Registered: Monday, August 4 2003 07:00

That was exactly what it was, though. He-Man was silly. Or is silly, as you can watch our beloved prince beating the violet skeleton every Saturday morning in Finland. Retro is in over here, you see.

His grammar is perfect, he doesn't abuse gremlins and the poll was actually good. Also, I asked about karma when I first came here which resulted in me getting about nine votes and two stars. And I even asked people to rank me, which must be the most provocative action one can take.

Religion, Homosexuality, the Usual in General
Sebald Lifecrafter Member # 3310	written Wednesday, July 7 2004 00:53 Profile #121 This is hard to explain, but I'll try. I like many of my male friends very much. I don't love them, but I see how it could be possible if the feelings were stronger. Is that what homosexuality is? Also, there's the culture thing. In many ancient cultures men loved each other very strongly, without being gay (I'm over-using the word love here but I hope you get my meaning). Nowadays people think of homosexuality as a genetical trait, but is it really more than love? I approve of homosexuality at all levels, but I think I could "approve more" if it truly isn't anything but feelings. Saying that it's genetical does make it sound like an disease, doesn't it? Of course, this alone doesn't justify homosexuality. Pedophilia is wrong even if you really had true feelings for the children (which seems to be quite common among pedophiles). This is where the moral comes in (I take a utilitarian stand in this one). Homosexuality doesn't hurt anyone, and thus there is nothing wrong with it. This might have sounded crude and even cruel, but that's one point of view. Posts: 756 \| Registered: Monday, August 4 2003 07:00

Dr. Seuss Is Better Than Shakespeare in General
Sebald Lifecrafter Member # 3310	written Tuesday, July 6 2004 01:12 Profile #28 Stephen King is certainly not stuck with one formula. He is, no matter what you say, much more than a horror and nostalgic-novel writer. Well, maybe not much, but still. King is best known for his horror, true, but if you dig a little deeper I think you'll be surprised. And I have never read Shakespeare. I tried once, but he was boring. And I refuse to read something boring, Shakespeare or not, when there's loads of good books and plays in the world. -------------------- ahhahaha i rule u droool Posts: 756 \| Registered: Monday, August 4 2003 07:00
