Now if you'd said "Cardi Bin" that might have been funny

Dammit why didn’t I think of that!

All these fucking posts about Sync

[–] ytrav 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i just joined lemmy a few days ago (after having signed up around the time reddit was protesting the api changes), and then migrated from reddit when Sync for lemmy released. And I love how easy it was to switch (apart from some ideas that are different, the fediverse and all that)

Alright. That's great, but its not the only content I want outta Lemmy... I ain't join Lemmy to just read about Lemmy clients all day

Android app for lemmy (previously reddit).

Has subscription (which removes ads and enables more features) or one time payment (for no ads only).

Gets bashed / made fun of because of this and because its not open source.

It’s recycle garbage.

So has to be country music.

Too broad. There's garbage thrash and good thrash, just like there is with every musical genre, metal or otherwise.

Except goregrind. All reasonable people can agree that goregrind is garbage

[–] RubberAxeman 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why would goregrind be garbage?

[–] NielsBohron 2 points 1 year ago

I was mostly making a joke, but also it's the metal genre that I think has the least going for it. Musically, it doesn't do too much to distinguish itself from related subgenres, and lyrically, well, it's goregrind.

That said, I'm not that well versed in goregrind, so I'm sure there's some that could change my mind.

Trash metal

[–] tox_solid 6 points 1 year ago

Five Finger Death Punch.

Well that makes sense since it's a recycling bin.

Me talking about music (I'm sorry)

[–] chuckleslord 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

How dare you put yourself down like this. We'll never forgive you.

Rambling about something you enjoy should never be a bad thing

[–] NielsBohron 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Tell that to my chemistry students when I go down a rabbit hole talking about science history.

5 minutes and three stories about badass chemists later, I look at a sea of faces that have glazed over and one raised hand: "Will this be on the test?"

[–] chuckleslord 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Your students are wrong, which is fine. They're (presumably) kids.

[–] NielsBohron 1 points 1 year ago

Naw, they're mostly adults as I teach at a community college, but I was also exaggerating. Most of them listen politely, with about a third actually paying attention.

And I make it clear in the first day that questions like "will this be on the test" are the fastest way to lose an instructor's goodwill and patience, so most of them aren't dumb enough to say that out loud.

Not sure if picture is about her music being trash...or recycled. Blue is recycled where I'm at.
