I find practically all recordings of people speaking intolerably slow to listen to. The speed at which you can absorb information is faster than a person can talk even reading off a script, never mind hemming and hawing while they try to think of what to say next. Almost any podcast or YouTube video is vastly improved…

Still not that great, though.

I think he’s consistently getting dumber. Do you think he has some kind of degenerative brain thing?

They’re “not fun” in the same way that horror movies are “not fun”. If you enjoy horror, you’ll likely enjoy those games.

My pick is about three and a half minutes

Horror isn’t fun, as a genre. It’s unpleasant. When it slips over into fun, it’s also slipped from “horror” into .. usually “comedy”, but sometimes “action”. Or both.

There’s not that many lyrics. Stipe is mumbling low in the mix because he didn’t have actual words for everything, just mouth noises.

Leto is three years older.

I don’t see any reason to explain Tekashi Sixixnineine to your parents or anyone else. The story’s over and it’s time to roll credits, then forget all about it.

1. There’s a misspelling in that title, there’s no “g” in “Kanye” for a start.

Practically everyone I know went and saw it at the movies, even after I questioned the wisdom of doing so, and came back with a resounding “meh”.

There’s a band called Oranssi Pazuzu who are primarily black metal but heavily psychedelic and they roll surf guitar and dub reggae bass lines and hand percussion and stuff into it. They’re pretty interesting.

I believe a leading motivation for “Varg” (i.e. Kristian Vikerness) killing Euronymous was that he was a “hippie communist” and that couldn’t be tolerated.

TLDR:”Badly.”

Quietly playing video games, how repugnant.

I wouldn’t put him up there with the all-time greats, but I also wouldn’t describe being a victim of abusive parenting and getting no chance at a normal life “shitty” except as a set of circumstances.

I was going to say if you induct Kraftwerk you’ll also have to take ABBA and Miles Davis, but it turns out they’re both already in.

Depeche Mode are one of the greatest musical acts of all time, but they’ve only really had a strangers-going-opposite-ways-on-passing-trains relationship with rock music. The occasional guitar line and a shirtless, tattooed singer do not a rock group make.

There’s an anime series called Nyaruko: Crawling With Love, starring Nyarlathotep et al as, of course, overstatedly adorable schoolgirls.
