I am stuck at work and very fucking bored. I demand entertainment.
Although I can't see what's remotely divisive about the below statement, when I posted it as my Facebook status a while ago it created an absolute shitstorm. Which would at least keep me awake.

THE SMASHING PUMPKINS WERE FUCKING AWFUL

agreed
I liked approximately one song of theirs.
I can tolerate them but I just didn't see what the big deal is
( Lisette von Falcon, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 18:39, Reply)

I love em myself.
Got all their albums, even the Pisces Iscarot Bsides thing and the Machina 2 one that you can't get an origonal of, only copies. But yeah - if you don't like em you don't like em I guess.

His voice is horrific
Ego or no, surely there comes a point when it's only decent to go up to him and say "look mate, I know you write the songs and the lyrics and it's your band, but you CANNOT sing. At all. Hire someone who can!"

so you're following him on twitter?!
not only do you have a gay face and hair like a spastic lionfish but you're a pedo too?

totally joshing here, guy
I'm jealous of your hair :(
( Lisette von Falcon, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 19:10, Reply)

My hair is unusual to be fair
And I'm not actually following him but I know plenty of people who are, tragically. Thank you for not contradicting the "would" comment, by the way :-)
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 19:14, Reply)

yes, I WOULD do my hair like that if I didn't look like a spaz

( Lisette von Falcon, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 19:16, Reply)

Yeah... that's what I meant

wait, he's 15? I thought he was like 12
how'd you even know that?!
( Lisette von Falcon, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 18:57, Reply)

I like his voice.
In the same way I like Bob Dylans. Technicaly no, Corgan cannot sing for shit, but for some reason, in his songs it works. And I like it.

But yeah, getting back to your origonal post - I once posted on facebook that I prefered some Hole songs to Nirvana - and nearly got internet lynched.
(Fredz A graveyard of hopes, a dump of ambition, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 18:53, Reply)

That was practically heresy even before Nirvana were deified
(Darth Foxtrot A one-man army dedicated to making fetch happen, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 18:54, Reply)

Herecy - But true
Some Nirvana tracks are, lets face it, a bit weak compared to Jennifer's Body, Or Miss World, or whatever. Courtney love was fucking awesome before she went downhill.

I think they are pretty awesome
although pretty disappointing the one time I saw them live at glasto
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 19:18, Reply)

Can't stand them.
Billy Corgan's voice irritates the hell out of me, and I have yet to hear a song that had any appeal. They're of limited talent at best. The most overrated band since U2.
( Wanderer, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 18:55, Reply)

They were really fucking dull.
The fellow looked like a twat and their records did nothing to persuade me otherwise. If they hadn't been releasing records at such a barren time in the history of rock music no-one would even have heard of them I reckon.

Plus, 'Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness' is one of the shittest student bed-wetting LP names ever. Boo fucking hoo.

OK,
name a shitter student bed-wetting LP name.

EDIT: actually I can, 'Meat is Murder'
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 20:11, Reply)

um, OK that part I am struggling with
but it did allow my friend the most awesome pun when he walked into the kitchen to see a goth, a dog (well, someone who'd character in LARP is a dog) and a watermelon
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 20:14, Reply)

Haha good Lord.
I suppose 'someone whose character in LARP is a dog' is indeed the defintion of 'infinite sadness'...

I am being mean now, I apologise.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 20:19, Reply)

you can't LARP
and get really offended when someone calls you sad
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 20:20, Reply)

Particularly if you do so as a dog.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 20:24, Reply)

never been a dog (well, in LARP anyway)
is a dragonkin worse?

Oh, wait, I was a wolf once, too
( Citizen Cavy Admires your passion for conformity, Thu 1 Apr 2010, 20:28, Reply)

I'm sorry to say
that now you are effectively speaking in a foreign language to me. A 'dragonkin'? The mind truly boggles. I had no idea 'LARPing' even existed until recently.

I am currently listening to 'High Rise II' by Japanese rockers High Rise. Now THOSE fellows knew how to do it. Fucking awesome.

Ah cool
The Japanese do the lo-fi fuzz rock so well :)

The smashing pumpkins were and are brilliant. MACHINA: The Machines of God, is my favourite album of all time. Yes, it's my favourite ever. They are immense beyond belief.
