So much talk on the twitters about the GNFNR show last night, so much disgust from me.

Always surprises me how many people with otherwise good taste in music are into them. And of course, I'm always surprised by how many people have completely awful taste, too.

I learn more and more every day that I'm simply not cool enough to be here.

Now don't get ahead of yourself. Nobody ever said that any of us were cool.

Well a large percentage of "us" seem to be playing Pokemon well into adulthood... So I think it's fairly safe to say that we as a group are pretty definitively not cool.

 

[kbuzz1]

not to mention we spend our days interacting with each other on the internet

We're all pretty much disqualified from the get go when it comes to being cool.

I loved last year a beer camp explaining that I was going camping with a group of guys I met on the internet and really didn't know all that well. It's ok though because we all drink beer

Denigrate Axl all you want. Slash is one of the most impressive guitarists I've ever seen play.

I greatly dislike blanket statements that if someone likes a certain band/genre, that their tastes are in question. I'm surprised to hear you say this, Nate.

But what if its true?

I think we should weigh out each blanket statement by its own individual merits.
As much as I try to be judicious & anti-snobby when it comes to beer, I'm pretty opinionated when it comes to music (&, to a lesser extent, comedy, apparently). It's not even that I really feel that strongly about it, it's just a fun way to be unnecessarily antagonistic.

 

[McMatt7]

Tastes are subjunctive. Everyone redact.

What is "trolling"?

The weirdest thing about fat Axl Rose is that he looks like he is wearing an actual fat suit. Like, it looks as bad as fat Betty Draper, except Axl's is all natural.

Damn you for reminding me of Fat Betty Draper.

But then I got a smile when I remembered the awesomeness of Pete Campbell's late season wardrobe

If you're not cool enough, that really doesn't bode well for me

You seem to know more about baseball than tommyguz, so don't feel too bad.

I'm not comparing us to major league players.

I was comparing mlb players to mlb players

The only thing steroids does is help you recovery faster from injury, meaning more practice time, more reps in the cage. Obviously more practice more playing you get better

Steroids don't make you any better at hitting the baseball other than allowing more practice and playing time

 

[tommyguz]

Exactly. These are major league hitters. Nobody on here said if you take roids you will hit the ball with better technique. Roids don't make you a worse hitter or better hitter. If you can hit with more power, it is obviously a huge advantage, already being a major league talent.

Now that that's settled, why can't I find a Charmander around Pittsburgh?!

No that's exactly what was said. They can hit better with steroids . That's why I said it's not the case

 

[tommyguz]

Guarantee that 99.9% of ped use is for injury recovery. Not to get muscles to hit home runs

 

[kbuzz1]

yo Tom, we're talking about fat axl now...

Find it. Let's beat this dead horse.

Bunch a ******' hipsters...

Not that I'm a GNR fan or anything but Appetite for Destruction is a great album. And Axl is still an *******.

Now they've got you afraid to admit that you're a GnR fan... It's a shame.

 

[Beerwanderer]

I'm in the GnR fan club too. If I could go back in time a GnR/Metallica tour location would be one of my stops.

 

[PSUMike]

Fan of Slash, not a fan of Axl. Like a lot of their stuff but they aren't a band I'd run out and see. Mr. Brownstone, Sweet Child, Patience, etc. are great songs though.

EDIT: November Rain as well.

 

[kbuzz1]

****, maybe I'd rather hear about steroids after all...

Ditto. To me they sound like someone threw **** in a wood chipper. Ugh

You're not black like Barry White no you are white like Frank Black is.
