**Angermeans is an album by a hardcore band called Strife. Now, when I say 'hardcore', I mean it as the genre of metal that generally fuses punk, emo, and metal together, not in the 'I'm Hardcore' sense. It's a really great album. 4 out of 5.**
Rain usually makes me happy. So it's weird that I am so pissed off right now.
I'm so angry that I can't even see straight. I'm so angry that I actually threw a glass at the refrigerator and it broke. Bye bye glass.
You know, if it isn't my mother bitching at me about money or my job or the band or whatever, it's that someone has the fucking audacity to make a board so that he can feel better about himself by putting others down. All this under the clever guise of 'satire'.
I think the great writer Jonathan Swift said it best when he said that "satire is a sort of glass, wherein beholders do generally discover everybody's face but their own"
Interesting quote, Jonathan. I wish that the creator of the satire board would look into the glass and realize that all the nasty, vicious things he says about people really make him look like an asshole more than some funny, witty, sarcastic guy.
My question is this : Can someone like something, love someone, like doing something without shit being pitched their way about it? Jesus christ dude. That's really heartless, motherfucker. I guess your high school bullshit works with everyone else in this group, your sophomoric humor, but frankly, I dont' care for it one bit. Shit, next thing you know, you'll be talking bad about the Beaver's heart problems, my dead brother, Nate's weight problem, etc. Is nothing sacred in this game? Can we fucking like something and not get attacked for it? Can we have one thing that just tears us down and makes us cry without getting shit flipped at us about it? Yeah, I said it. I have a brother, he's dead. His name is Jason Matthew. He was born in 1978. He was 2 months premature, his lungs weren't developed enough. He died 2 days after he was born. It bothers me to talk about it. Probably won't bother you to put it on your little 'satire' board though.Shit, you'd probably connect it to a genre of metal or use it as the reason I'm a "dude".
That's another thing. So what if I'm not a girly girl. Girly girls are so fucking fake. I don't care about makeup or frilly dresses. What you see is what you fucking get. I think I'm more straight up and real than some of the girly girls in this group. Why do you find it funny that I like to hang with the boys? I don't think it's funny. I've always been 'the tomboy'. Shit, my own mother has questioned my sexuality in the past, because I've always had a problem getting boyfriends and I dress like a dude. Pretty sad when your own mother thinks you're a fucking dyke. That's why it bothers me so much. Why can't I just be who I am? I think I'm a beautiful, smart, well-read, cultured individual. So what if I don't wear dresses or tight little skirts. At least I'm real. And that's all that fucking matters.
Metal. You know, I don't sit there and attack what you like. I don't attack foam swords or anything like that. I've never attacked Gravity Kills, though frankly, I've always, deep down, thought that they weren't really that good to begin with. It's been done, many times, by bands with tons more talent than GK. You act like all I listen to is metal. For your information, right now I am listening to one of the masters of funk music, George Clinton. Earlier, I was listening to Marley, and today in the car, I was listening to a wonderful piece of music from Mr. Dean Martin. While metal is my first love musically, it's not my whole world. Don't knock some of these bands if you don't know fuck about them. Take your head out of Jeff Scheel's ass and get a clue.
To everyone else, I apologize. Sincerely. That you had to read all this stuff, it's just what I'm feeling right now. I think the satire board is a horrid idea. I think it has the potential to tear people apart, as quickly as we've all been trying to rectify situations within this group. I for one, will be an infrequent contributor to the board because I'm against everything it stands for. Quill told me once that nothing bothers him. So frankly, he's using that board as more of a vehicle for him to just fuck with others, and we can't get him back for the nasty shit he says about all of us, because nothing bothers him. Actually, one thing will piss him off. However, I am much too mature to reveal what that is. Unlike him, I have tact and a heart. I know what sensitive subjects to avoid and what to dog people on.
I've said my piece. If you want to comment, fine. If not, fine.
Hizzy.

How many “Steve’s gay” jokes have you made, even in front of my person, and I said not one word about it. You’ve made “Steve has dorky hair” jokes, and it’s not even YOUR inside joke to make; and yes, in front of me, which I said nothing about. How many times have you dogged me about M.C. Hammer? Know why I let you and countless others dog me into the ground like that? Because if I’m going to dish it out, I’m going to take it.
How many jokes about Beaver have you made? How many times have you out-and-out dissed DeLarbar, Justin Bauer? How many jokes have you made about Nick Wilson? Don’t sit there and act like you’ve never gone into insult-mode; you’ll be a liar if you do.
And for your information, I have never cracked a joke about Beaver’s heart murmur. I’ve never cracked a joke about Kristin Merz’s brother, who died very, very young. I’ve never cracked a joke about Nate’s weight. I’ve never cracked a joke about Corey not being able to see his own son. I’ve never cracked a joke about Dave’s deal at Drury. I’ve never joked about these things because I realize what’s over the line.
So I joked about metal music? So the fuck what? You’ve dogged on me for liking Blind Guardian before, calling in cheese metal because it didn’t meet your “hardcore” approval. It’s music, it’s NOT personal. Get the fuck over it.
And as for the “dude” comments…you’ve said you’re almost like a dude, to me and several other people. You yourself have joked about it. I think that if you can sit there and call me a homosexual and make cracks about my level of intelligence, I can make those kinds of jokes. That’s fair. Or, does it only work one way with you? Is it the kind of deal where you can call me gay all day long but the instant I make a crack, how dare I?
But I’ll tell you what…you don’t to be poked fun at, for whatever reason, and that’s fine with me. I will stop. However, this means you don’t get to dish it out anymore. It’s not fair to bitch about being dogged if you dog other people yourself.
Have a nice day! :)
Hizzy, just know that we're all friend here; insults and jokes are a way of life for all in our group, and no one is exempt from it. It's probably the most fair situation we have. I am sorry if I upset you due to my joking. Have a good day...
:)
