They don't even play the same style of music. Just because both have a ! in their name, doesn't warrent them for direct comparison.

BtMI! and AM! are both great in their own respects. But BtMI!'s got free music and more booze. Soooo, BtMI wins at this moment.

But I'm just saying I find it hard to place any sort of comparison on them personally. If I want Against Me, I listen to Against Me, if I want Bomb the Music Industry, I listen to Bomb the Music Industry. I see them in completely different categories, one is placed above the other depending on mood.

I don't think they exactly pride themselves on their musical precision... that's not to say they aren't good musicians, cause they are. But i think the main point is just to scream along and have fun.

I saw them at the Skanksgiving show in MA, and they were awesome. Only time I've seen 'em though, so it could have been a fluke. From what I read they just seem to be wildly inconsistent.

Totally agree. I didn't even stay for their entire set, and they were the band I was most excited about.

Did you see the hotel room show on Sunday? It made up for the belligerence of their show at the kickstand.

i loved the fest set

BJs do just seem like filler. Its cool for a bit but then you have to fast forward to the good part. If you like the throat fucking you should google "violent blow job" the first result is pretty funny and has some great sounds.

All this is true, but when then there's the exception of Heather Brooke. I could watch that woman give blowjobs for hours. I highly recommend searching her.

I agree BJ's go on for waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long in porn. I am all about the lesbian scenes...

Report  
badbrain (December 17, 2008)

Lesbian shit never did anything for me. I don't have a vagina so I can't relate to anything going on, I need some good new fashioned fucking.

Solo stuff is good if the chick is super hot

I've been called insecure because I don't like dicks in porn. I'm fucking straight, dicks don't really help, why would I wanna see them? Also it jsut makes me jealous of the guy

Report  
badbrain (December 17, 2008)

I need dick in porn because since I have one, I can relate to the porn dick. That is to say, I am seeing what the girl in question would like like if she was getting fucked by a dick, which is imaginarily my dick.

The majority of porn out there involves dick, since you need one to properly have sex. So guys who say they only watch solo or lesbian shit definitely have some kind of insecurity issue in that they REALLY don't want anyone to have any possible way to calll them gay. This is a catch 22 though, since watching dickless porn is more suspicious than anything since it comes off as an overcompensation for asserting ones heterosexuality.

My christmas is not complete until i get to watch the Charlie Brown special, and National Lampoon Christmas Vacation

Shrek the Halls > Charlie Brown Christmas Special.

Every year, I watch 4 different versions of a Christmas Carol / Scrooge (Alistair Sim, Reginald Owen, George C. Scott, and Patrick Stewart) and National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. Thats my tradition.

And yes, I really like Christmas Carol that much. I read the book most years, too.

And as for porn, it doesn't really do much for me anymore. It only perpetuates my misery when I'm single, and I find other things much more arousing when I'm not. Am I in the minority, here?

I like this analogy and agree wholeheartedly.

It's actually more complicated than that.

Y'all is only for small groups of people, or part of a large group. If you're addressing a large group in its entirety, the appropriate wording is "all y'all".

1 person = you
small group, or part of a large group = y'all
large group = all y'all
