  • urban is like the most blackly amusing euphamism ever and blackly that was unintentional im sorry

    >referring to African-Americans as "the urban market"

    this is what "urban market" and "urban demographic" mean.

    it's also why pretty much every black musician who isn't Jimi Hendrix gets put in the "Urban" section at shitty record stores. Including say, Santigold.

  • I have never listened to Santigold.

    I know that's what it means

    I don't like it because it makes me think of ghettos and that's probably the origin >_>
  • This tune is actually pretty interesting.


    i think i'll check this chick out.

    I'm not a huge fan, but she is pretty adamant about being indie rock iirc.

    well

    isn't that what she is?

    i mean, she does have r&b tendencies at times but I've never thought of her as such because she's far different from that genre in many respects

    I don't really listen to her music so I wouldn't know what genre she falls into.

    I'm pretty willing to take her word on being indie rock, but a lot of other people are less so.

    I'm disappointed everyone is talking about that silly comment I made and not the stupid as fuck link I posted above

    no one watches anything anyone embeds ever.
    I made sure of that!

  • i googled that person and got nothing
  • well I dunno he has Youtube videos.

    only like four of em but yeah.

    he's probably better known for voicing Parappa The Rapper.

    12 Oz. Mouse was a pretty good show.

    Tre likes it.

    I have never seen it but find its overbearing surrealism intriguing in concept.

  • Indeed.

    To be honest I don't think I fully understood it (and boy, is it hard to understand) but I think that's what makes it cool. It feels like the SBAHJ of television, but slightly less eye searing.

    It's also a hell of a lot better than Xavier. I attempted that one... it wasn't the same.
  • Also Skillet is the best character. Or Roostre. Or Golden Joe, or Mouse.

    Hell, everyone on it is fantastic.
  • Xavier is one of several shows I watched during my "high school freshman" period where I would frequently stay up stupid late and watch random TV shows at low volume.

    Other favorites were indie channel pickup anime Speed Grapher and Witchblade.

    You're right though; it is a deeply unpleasant term.

    Heh, me watching ozMo ended up happening because I stayed up till like 3 am one time last summer with Adult Swim on the TV, so I guess the phenomenon continued with me. "Adventure Mouse" was on and I liked what I saw. (Still one of my favorites, that one.)

    I haven't seen or heard of Speed Grapher but my dad read the comics and watched both TV versions of Witchblade. What I saw of the anime was pretty good.
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    I've heard that Speed Grapher is kind of a train-wreck plot-wise, but in a distinctly entertaining way.
  • I recall the anime being good but nowadays I would probably find it overly fanservicey.

    Speed Grapher is only worth a watch if you have a strong stomach, and are able to tolerate its rather heavy-handed moralizing.

    That said I still enjoyed that series more than I thought I would.

    I also saw Gurren Lagann and Gundam 00 somewhat later in that same stretch of time. Both ran on SyFy as I recall.

    Code Geass was in there too. Loved the first season but R2 was more hit-and-miss.

    I've heard that Speed Grapher is kind of a train-wreck plot-wise, but in a distinctly entertaining way.



    I think "train-wreck" might be a strong word, but the plot takes a backseat to the moralizing.

    Hee hee, all according to plan!

  • I wish I had a kitty cat to hold and pet right now...and he'd purr...

    we're looking to get rid of three cats if you're willing to travel.
  • Gurren Lagann, man. I want to see the rest of it but my brother has prevented me from doing so because he stopped wanting to see it post-Kamina.

    I know what happens (I have never cared about spoilers), but still.

    My dad refuses to let me get a cat right now.

    I'm hoping I'll get one when I move out, though I have no idea when that will be...

    Stormy did this thing where he would purr so hard that he sounded like a pickup truck idling

    It was great

    my cat Shaggi used to do that when she was younger, but she's older now, and doesn't really purr very much.

    Is "indie channel" IFC? They used to run anime before they decided to become "Comedy Central for hipsters/Millennials"
  • someone just got tazed

    so it's to be that type of manga.

    it was either them, sundance, or Current, I forget which.
  • THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    I just watched the "Tomorrow Hill" scene from Smooth Moves for the first time since my brother played it years ago. He left in early 2009, and it turns out the game itself came out in 2007

    Has it really been that long? I guess it has, since I associate the song from that level (and "Pollyanna (I Believe in You)" from MOTHER) with my early days on TVT, roughly late 2008-early 2009.

    The term "Millennials" is really starting to grate on me, somehow

    no offense, au
  • Probably because it's almost always used in a condescending way to imply that we're an entitled and spoiled generation for wanting a world that is not broken on several fundamental levels.

    I prefer the old "Children of the Millennium" personally, but it's too flashy for everyday use.

    The Angel of Death still does that sometimes. It is adorable.

    you have a cat named The Angel of Death
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    Well, we usually just call her Angel, but yes, that's her full name.
