Ya, "good singer" isn't enough for me to throw her in the artistic camp. You have a different standard and that's fine.

I mean, don't you think you could have switched Frank and Bennett and gotten the same song? I mean, New York New York wouldn't have been that different if it were recorded by Bennett.

I don't really consider Sinatra, Elvis or Bennett artist though, they were just kind of singers/performers.

I'd definitely say that someone who writes, produces and plays the instruments on their record definitely has more artistic merit than someone who doesn't. Especially if you're going to put your own name on the cover the album. I atleast know Beck earned that shit while I have no idea whether or not Beyonce cut a…

that comment has 19(!!!!) stars

First time Beck's ever been referred to by that word?

Liking Kanye West? Now that's one hot take!

Are you suggesting we don't have to hear both sides in criminal cases or allegations?

Unless you're moving, I generally don't trust the opinion of anyone who carries around a mattress.

So when my wife goes down on me when I'm asleep, what are we calling that?

noooooooooooo. dummy. They specifically said hard alcohol. There's an ingredient in there that makes dudes rape. Sheesh. how do you not know this?

Nonsense. A civilized society understands the difference between murder and execution and the legal differences that separate the two.

Yup. And I don't care if it makes me look like a savage for my blood lust. Give me a knife and I'll do it myself if the state of California is too cowardly to take appropriate action.

"and really, most people here (read; comment sections everywhere) are just looking to score cheap points or jokes or express themselves with a gif."

"you could have ignored me but chose not to? Why?" Because we're just talking and having a civil conversation? I'm not trying to stifle you or ask you "emmmm, gosh, could you please just not? My feels. They hurt." Basically, I'm not trying to change what you do or how you think and I'm gaining a different…

I think it shows an inability to ignore innocuous comments and words which I believe is really at the crux of political correctness. The offendended, in this case some Russians(?), simply can't let some blogger thousands of miles away use a those words because of their feels. It's insane to me that it would even…
