I did. I was just responding to Imi first, then forgot to respond to you.
That makes sense, yeah. I was honestly also thinking of stuff like The Weeknd's "The Hills", where it's impossible to tell what mood he's even trying to convey with it.
The Weeknd got popular (by completely changing his sound mind you but don't overestimate record exec's intelligence here), and everyone, desperately searching for the next trend that will land a #1 hit, just had all their pop artists on-staff do knockoff Weeknd stuff.
The difference of course is that Weeknd, for all I really don't care much for him now, was good at that kind of music in the past. These people aren't and are probably operating under the assumption that :makes hand puppet and flaps it along to my words: "none of this is hard to make", so they figure they can just not put any effort into it.
"The Hills", I think, is supposed to feel sinister and vampiric and drugged out, and to that end, it works. It's a guy in a weird sexual relationship with severely paranoid overtones comparing himself to a monster and his social environment to the domain of a mutant cannibal clan. It's about sex, but it's also about pushing the sex/death relationship hard in the latter direction—desire as something degrading and draining. And it works to that end, I think.

Kinda? But its perspective on itself seems skewed and, if nothing else, very limited and it makes the song's weird angle just feel kind of limp and weightless, doesn't help that the lyrics are creepy but none of them particularly stick, and the music never hits that sweet spot where it seems like it's droning and foreboding and repetitive on purpose

New hobby: putting "To show Avicii I was cool" after sentences that fit the meter
I feel like I'm not allowed to express mild annoyance with things anymore without people acting like I'm being unreasonable
It's because you're not. Nobody here is.
If one wants to express negative opinions, one must express them on an acceptable subject such as Donald Trump.
I love the people here, but we heapers are an amazingly pushy bunch who can't let people disagree with views like "allowing people to disagree is a good thing", " a diversity of views is a desirable thing", or, "don't force people to agree with you".
are you arguing that you should be allowed to disagree that disagreement is okay, based on a surreal complaint about phonetics that she said seemed weird to even her later
No. I am arguing that the one mandatory opinion is the opinion that other people have a right to their own opinions; and nobody seems to recognize the strangeness of this paradox except me.
tell him I said that he's bringing shame to our state and that the Eagles are the best football team to ever exist WOO WOO WOO FLY EAGLES FLY DONOVAN MCNAB :flaps arms:

At least to me.
Man, my brain must be some kind of hipster, assuming that adiversitynything with a wikipedia article is uninteresting.
