    Listen to Low at least. I mean, really.

    Also "Heroes" and The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. And maybe Space Oddity.

    David Bowie is fairly diverse musically, and has worked with some cool people, so chances are he's done something you'll like at one point or another.
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    This is very true.
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    Oh, and The Lodger. It's pretty weird.
  • hun has anyone ever told you that

    Escape From Tomorrow was an alright movie.

    Could have gone farther than it did, but there's something to be said for restraint.

    First they came for the Jews, and I did not speak up because How Dare You is not an argument

    Then they came for the Poles, and I did not speak up because object level beliefs are uninteresting.

    Then they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out because they came from fields that were essentially subsidized hobbyism.

    Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

    they're really reviving the franchise with that vatican vibes remake

    I just realised that the hospital pants I am wearing as pyjama pants have one back pocket on the outside and one on the inside. Very strange.

    Todd in the Shadows hated Hooked on a Feeling by Blue Swede.

    Man does that dude hate fun.
  • I dunno, his reasons for it were pretty good, and it's not like he hates everything that's not perfect; he just has very clear- if sometimes odd- standards and he sticks by them.
  • I don't know how to feel about Borgore

    like, at all
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    One can really selectively use Todd's videos and comments to either say that he is a surly hipster who hates fun or a ridiculous poptimist with no sense of discretion, if one is so inclined.

    Yes and those standards are boring.

    I'm coming to realize Todd is kind of half the adult in a British fantasy novel who wants the children to be Sensible and Grounded.
  • Well, he liked Turn Down For What, Thrift Shop, and like three Katy Perry songs so clearly the issue isn't just him being boring; it's just a weird ass taste in music.

    As would be expected from someone who spent the majority of his life only listening to country music and only semi-recently starting to listen to anything else.
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    In this case "recently" would be some time in the early 2000s, mind you.

    And honestly it's unfair to call someone's taste "weird" and "un-fun" when you're having a conversation with, uh, me...
  • I wasn't saying weird as a bad thing, just that he's pretty clearly coming at his topic from a different angle and perspective than would be expected.

    “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    Aside:


    This song is basically the platonic ideal of my concept of "fun." It makes me smile and want to slam-dance.

    Listen to it.
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    Also, when Scott Spillaine performs that song live the intro actually goes through about half the verses in that fashion before the song actually comes barrelling in and it is amazing.
  • "Turn Down For What" is a great meme but a slightly less great song.

    So the 2011 series for Hunter X Hunter is working towards wrapping up. This actually has me a bit sad, since I've really been enjoying it. I can't remember the last time I felt this way about the abrupt end of an anime, though I watch stuff sporadically enough as is (plus my lackluster memory), so.

    v Awesome.
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”

    Not disagreeing.

    Also, Blue Swede's version of "Hooked On A Feeling" is fun, but it does sort of run completely contrary to the intended tone of the original, like Camper Von Beethoven's polka version of Sonic Youth's menacing possession dirge "I Love Her All The Time".

    At least I've been told the end of the latest arc is a decent stopping point.

    At least there is that, yeah.
  • Does anybody remember that one animated video of a bear who starts acting like a human?

    All I remember is that, at one point, he starts fighting with a sword and shield and/or rides a motorcycle.

    I'd almost forgotten how BEAUTIFUL East Tennessee is
  • East Tennessee looks like ass. You can never see any of the pretty scenery because the trees get in the way. But when you CAN see the scenery, yeah, it's pretty.

    I wish more LP folks played Vanilla FTL on Youtube. I follow various Twitch streamers, which is nice, just not as easy as Youtube. Northernlion has started and stopped two series, and got to a fairly respectable level at the game. Rockleesmile doesn't have any videos. Alpacapatrol has put out at least one series (with the AE content), but stopped due to an apparently awful comments section and people wanting to play "keyboard referee" or something, in his words. Which I can get, though I take issue with the characterization of those attempts to help (granted, Youtube comments can be utter crap). Bisnap got pretty far in pre-AE FTL on Normal, and I'm honestly kind of surprised that he doesn't have more videos on it, since it seems like his sort of game. I just found out that Arumba has a lot of pre-AE, and a fair amount of post-AE, videos up. Apparently Cobaltstreak put up two videos on Youtube, and I'm also surprised he hasn't put up more. Maybe he has more on his Twitch channel.

    There are some other Youtube folks that I know of, but they pretty much all of them play with mods on, which kills it for me. A note/edit: I realize this can sound kind of silly. I'm not so invested in it, but I do absolutely enjoy the game, which extends to game play as well (plus, I can skip the fat and get to the good parts).

    no but seriously, like, the equivalent view in Central Ohio would look something like this:

    Indeed he does! The last FTL Normal run was on 4/23/14, but hey that's something. Thanks. I think no-pause runs are something I'll be trying out on Normal after I can beat the game consistently with most of the ships (certain trash ships excluded for being trash). Maybe practice no-pause on Easy, first.

    Oh, and I forgot that BaerTaffy sporadically plays the game on his Twitch channel, and uploads the VODs to his Youtube. Thankfully, the fans/people commenting haven't driven him off of it, and have been good about letting him figure things out for himself.
