Generally when you call someone childish and say that it's not worth arguing over sarcasm is not involved.

I'm not going to waste 15 seconds canceling anything. If you don't like it here, just don't come back.

Indeed. Let's see if you like it!

You, to Ken:

You words "im almost certain", but you are not so how can you blindly make a statement.

You, to Ken. This is you assuming that he doesn't know the full background, btw.

Your statments alone pretty much show your content for certain artists with out actually knowing the full backround.

You, to Ken again, once again assuming that he doesn't know what he's talking about and coming off like a titanic prick in the process.

Your statment is pointless and said out of desperation trying to justify your narrow minded thoughts

Here's you flat out making shit up when referring to Ashlee, because she doesn't write the songs.

I agree 100%, to write a song that is loved by millions takes a talent, it may not be the most difficult, but it takes talent.

Here's you stating your opinion as fact. Even more, nobody, anywhere, said anything about her music being "sub par to their own". You invented this little tidbit to back up your own argument.

Anyone that thinks any music is sub par to there own, or puts down any type of music is narrow minded

And here's Ken asking you to clarify, which you never do.

When did i put down any genre of music or artists?

Here again is you assuming that nobody on here knows who she is. I don't think I have to explain why making such a sweeping generalization is poor form.

People here are making an assumption about Ashley without really knowing who she is.

Here's you saying you backed up all your facts. I don't really see any fact-backing-up going on, just you rambling. Then you go on to dismiss everyone else's opinion as having no merit.

The one thing you people neglect to notice is I have backed up all my facts, where other people keeping cursing and spewing out comments that have no merit backing those comments up.

Here you again mention statements on assumptions, which is ironic because that is all you have done in this entire thread.

ONce again said members are making statments on assumptions, do you really call that intelligent conversation?

Now you're just getting sour grapes because face it, you're wrong.

Dave was always telling me how this is such a great board, i dont see it at all. The people I have come in contact with seem just as close minded as the people that make fun of metal.

Here's you calling everyone closed minded after not only assuming that you are the only person who pays attention to pop music, you then ignore everyone else's opinion and again proclaim that only yours is valid. Then you go on to invent another point for your own argument, because nobody ever says "if it's not my music it's crap".

Honestly you guys are the most closed minded people I have ever seen that think because it is not there music it is crap.

Here again you assume nobody knows about her band. There's irony here because you're taking a shot at us for making assumptions based on your own assumptions.

well they are narrow minded and dont know much about said band and are making assumptions.

Here's you complaining about me not respecting your opinion after 27 pages of you shitting all over everyone else's.

You are like dr jekel and my hyde, one minute you are saying i should respect the opinions of the board members, but next minute you are not respectiong mine

Here's you saying that Dickinson and Simpson are the same because they "do the same thing".

Do you consider bruce dickenson from Iron maiden a musician, Dave said yes, ok then why dont you consider ashley, they both do the same thing, write lyrics.

Here's you, on page 28, saying I'm missing the big picture when all I've been doing is countering you.

you are more caught up in defending the members here and are not really looking at the big picture.

Call me a troll, call me what you want, I know who i am, i stick up for my beliefs.

Actually, there's nothing at all that really separates you from all of the other people that come here every so often and presume to "tell us how it is". The mistake you made, like all the others, is that you assume we're just a bunch of dumb headbangers with no appreciation for anything that isn't metal. And just like every other holier-than-though grandstander, you left in a huff with a cheeseball "fuck you guys, I'm outta here" after we proved you wrong over and over again.

I have no hard feelings/malice/whatever towards you. Stick around and talk metal if you like. But if you're going to debate topics like this, if you can't stand people not agreeing with you then this probably isn't the best forum for you.

Chris, you amaze me every day.

The most awesome owning evah! Usin' his own words.

[Memq]

"korn is bad" stupid enough to say that.

[The Dark Wolf]

Nice job, Chris. Summarized what I said time and again, but this guy is very hard-headed.

As Ken pointed out, I'm a huge Prince fan. I don't know how he got it into his head that we're some "metal only" cult. Frankly, I'm personally very offended that he would insinuate I know nothing about popular music, and that he would compare the talent and years of artistic genius of Prince with Ashlee Simpson, and award her equal validity as an artist. I'm offended that he grandstanded as the only authority on this.

"Metal rule..." Where the hell did I claim even ONCE that metal was the only legitimate musical form? This guy operates under all kinds of blinders. I seriously question his ability to operate as a normal human being, and I don't say that to be insulting. I mean, I seriously do.

[distressed_romeo]

It's also a bit rich of him to claim that we don't like it when people bash bands we like. Most people on these boards like Nevermore for instance, but no-one's offended when someone says they don't like Warrell's voice or Jeff's soloing style.
...And I'm pretty sure Chris mentioned he liked Avril Lavigne and Kelly Clarkson pretty early on in this arguement, so I'm not sure where the 'there's more to pop music than you want to admit' thing came from.

I also hate it when people assume all we like is metal... That would be why we have a dedicated jazz and acoustic section.

I'm with TDW...I listen to everything from Amy Winehouse to Akercocke, and appreciate quality in most musical genres (hence my dislike of Ashlee).

[The Dark Wolf]

Yep. He came in with a ton of preconceptions, and then flagrantly applied them wherever he chose, even if they had ZERO basis in matching the facts.


Chris caught it - by O dude's logic, if I were to eat a $1 McDonald's Double Cheeseburger, and then state it's quality wasn't the same as the $30 Filet Mignon I had at Ahmed's Steakhouse, why... I'm a hypocrite! I don't know what I'm talking about. I don't know all the facts about McDonalds.

I've never encountered such ridiculous thinking. And he stuck with his assumptions regardless of whatever was said. Usually, there's some sort of connection to reality in most arguments/debates, even if it's tenuous. But here? Nothing. Not even closely related to reality.




Hmm... that's a clever song title. 'Closely Related to Reality (Not Even)'
