I read disscussion forums beacuse I want to learn something new, see a new perspective or get insight from someone else. It is completely unacceptable to post in a disscussion forum and then simply ignore and dismiss posters who have taken the time to read what you have written and responded back to you. It shows no respect to the people who's opinons you have asked for.
I am glad that filtherton is doing the equivalant of keel hauling your ass for being so ignorant. Lets have a discussion about why you feel the need to express hate? why do you admit your wrong but continue to post that its okay because thats the 'way I feel' It is not okay, you are entitled to do it but it does not mean it is acceptable. |

How can hate be anymore than the way one feels? I don't think I have been ignorant at all. I don't think I have been rigid. You say you like hearing new perspective well that's my perspective on rap, and it's a negative one, so what?
I went back and reread everything I posted. Yea, I do alot of generalizing, exaggerating and such. Alot of people say things they regret. I'm not saying I regret saying it, but I could have discussed it in a more intelligent constructive manner. I never attack anyone though, the way people attack me in response to my opinions, the way filtherthon attacks other people in this thread for misunderstanding him. I did respond to people who responded to me. Why is it neccessary to express hate? We are social creatures. Expression is comforting, it connects us to other people. If I feel strongly about something it feels good to talk about it to someone else whether they agree with it or disagree with it. I admit I'm "wrong" because hating rap serves no purpose. I do feel it is ok to continue hating rap, because since when is it not ok to dislike something and talk to other people about it. Yea it's a contradiction that illustrates the grand contradition of intellect vs. emotion, super ego vs. id. Don't tell me my opinions about something aren't acceptable. It's not like I'm lynching rappers or anything. I'm posting that I don't like rap on a messageboard. Last edited by noahfor; 05-07-2004 at 04:03 PM.. |

Obviously, Averett, your cock is the biggest. I realize that this thread serves no purpose other than for me to act like an asshole to prove a point. On further thought, i probably shouldn't have even bothered starting it. Hey, you live and learn. I really don't care if noah hates rap, that's his right. I just want him to be aware that all hate is by definition irrational and implies at least a certain amount of laziness on behalf of the hater. |

Holy shit, hate is irrational. Do you and Noah feel that acting and voicing your irrational opionion is fun? If so, then carry on. If not, then shut up! I love music. I love lots of things. The things that I do not love I do not feel the need to share with everyone. Tacos are gooooood!
Edit, had to add something off the wall and random. Tacos does it for me.

If you wanted me to realize that hate is irrational why didn't you try rationalizing with me. I think I admitted that it served no point before you posted.
I'm still missing the point I think. Why is it irrational? You have to start with the basics here. What is rational, then why is it irrational? Usually mocking somebody isn't the best way to get them to listen to what you are trying to say. I mean why would I even bother to read such childishness. I'm tempted to go yell at anyone that expresses any negative views at all anywhere on this forum, to prove a point of my own, but I choose not to. I mean I'm not a monk. You can't expect me to be completely rational, especially when it comes to something so trivial as wanting to start a post about how I don't like rap. Go listen to some Bill Hicks, and you'll realize that hate rules. I'm in no way comparing myself to Bill Hicks. Last edited by noahfor; 05-07-2004 at 11:17 PM.. |

Context, klopper, context.
Hate is irrational because it is based on flawed logic. It is always selective (i hate things about object A that i really don't mind in object B), and is always used to make the hater feel superior to the hated. It serves no pupose other than to act as an emotional band-aid. |

Yeah, but it's fun if you read the posts out loud in funny voices.
I don't like rap either, but I save my hate for important things like child molesters, rapists, and the IRS.

So really you don't hate music, you just hate the "scene"? The fashion, the slang ect.. and how some stupid bands are popular when amazing ones arn't?

One thing I have noticed on many forums: It is immensely easier to bitchabout why X musician/simger/band/genre sucks than it is to actually explain why you like the music you do (with something other than "becuz they kik ass!!!11!")
Sorry about the asshat-speak. I spend too much time amongst them.

This thread is a perfect example of the age old quote:

This quote always reminds of another age-old quote: "Claiming that other people are retards for using the internet to communicate whilst using the internet yourself implies that you, in a very ironic kinda way, lack an understanding of the definition of the word retard". In any case, how quaint of you to denounce a discussion where your only contribution is to call everyone involved a retard. Good for you. Welcome to the tfp. |

well, I LOVE music. I love listening to music while I do my homework. I love listening to music when I'm sitting back having a beer. I love listening to music while I'm driving. Hell, I listen to music while I'm having sex. Play me some Tool. Play me some Pink Floyd. Play me some Mozart. Play me some Soundgarden. Play me some Simon and Garfunkel. I fuckin' love it ALL!
