No the only magazine I read about music is Rolling Stone and Slipknot isn't in RS. I don't follow trends at all, I really hate mainstream radio and Slipknot is probably the most mainstream band I listen to. I just do not find them to be particularly terrible as everyone else does. And thanks for telling me that I just like whatever is in at the time, because I've been listening to Slipknot for around 9 years now and I don't get my new music from the radio.

Yes collecting is a hobby, but most hobbies when you get the product, you don't consume it. If he's wearing those shoes, he's consuming product. That's how consumption works.

Ugh... [/facepalm]

It's been in that spot since it came out, but it's dropping like a rock. Was all the way at 9.5. Give it another month and it'll be at 9.0 or less.

Yeah maybe it would be a hobby if they were collecting these to put on display or to have sealed up in a case, but these are for wearing. They are consuming product. If buying pairs of shoes to wear is a hobby, then I have a great hobby eating at Taco Bell.

My point is that having hundreds of millions of fans worldwide justifies, to me, that they're putting their talent to use in the correct way. I like metal a lot, Slipknot isn't even one of my favorite bands, but all the metal sub-genres just tend to blur and don't have much substance in my opinion. They're not the catalyst that TOOL or Pink Floyd may be, but they're still selling out massive venues worldwide. Whether or not their music is "easy to digest garbage" is your opinion, but that has nothing to do with their talent. They write songs that are filled with plenty of talent and people can realize that (With, of course, the exception of you and every other person who deems Slipknot as garbage).

Boxer Briefs. They're just perfect. It's impossible to get them bunched up and you don't have the feeling of wearing uncomfortable briefs. It's wonderful.

Well considering they headline some of the biggest rock festivals and shows across the entire globe, I think they might be capitalizing on their talent, but hey, maybe that's just my misconstrued opinion.

You can try to make up as many genres as you want to try to half-[wagon] classify Slipknot, but the fact remains that Slipknot has a lot of talented musicians in their band. You might not like their music, stage antics, or how you might claim they wear masks for attention (As if they can't get it from their music. Last time I checked you can't see masks on the radio.), but they are talented. I don't like Dillinger Escape Plan AT ALL (I think their songs really blow actually), but those guys are extremely talented musicians and I can respect that.

I think I might be the only one on here with either of these pairs of shoes. [hide=Dr. Martens] These are more for wearing in the winter with jeans or something with long pants on. Things cost me $125.00 but they're durable as all hell. Best boot you can buy for your money.[/hide] [hide=Macbeth] Summer shoes. Great with pretty much anything you wear and are surprisingly comfortable.[/hide] And to those of you who have 30,000 pairs of Nikes of all different colors: I'm sorry, but you're quite stupid to waste that much money on shoes. I love buying shoes as much as the next guy, but people don't give a damn if you have matching shoes with your "outfit". The only person that really cares is you.

Because they can. And it's just getting old. According to them nu-metal, which isn't even what they are anymore, isn't worthy of any praise.

I thought I was the only one in the world who ever saw that :ohnoes: So Creeeepy. "If you want to live high, live high If you want to live low, live low 'Cause there's a million things to be You know that there are."

I've always been an advocate of gun control on handguns. I have tons of friends that are hunters (considering I live in rural Wisconsin) and not one of them uses a handgun to hunt. These guys and girls are the real deal. They miss every day of school when it is deer hunting season and when t-zones comes up they miss for that, and when muzzle-loader comes up they miss school as well. Keep rifles and shotguns for hunting purposes but get rid of handguns. Handguns serve no point but to kill another human. They should be gone, end of story.

Lawrence of Arabia has one of the most famous soundtracks ever.

I like RuneScape, but not enough to dream about it. I only dream about things that I really like.

Re:Stacks by Bon Iver. Beautiful.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0907657/ Soundtrack from "Once" is awesome. Glen Hansard is awesome.

One of my all time favorites. At the end where the kid flexes... :cry:

Flax into bowstrings like any new member.

Bill Hicks- "One Night Stand" Part 1. One of the most amazing comedians of all time. George Carlin- "The Planet is Fine" Another of the greatest comedians of all time.

I tried for about 6 months to get into anime but I just couldn't. I really would like it explained why it's so popular. I mean, stuff on tv or in books just doesn't get published unless it's popular. What makes it so attractive?

I would have guessed "Lucky Man". Everyone's heard that song.

ELP is awesome. They have some really goofy stuff like Works and Brain Salad Surgery, but most of their stuff is great. And the fact that Carl Palmer is one of the better drummers to come out of the 70s.

1) Lost 2) House 3) 24 4) Family Guy 5) Seinfeld

Just close your door at night. I used to leave mine open and my dog (60 lbs.) would come up and sleep with me on my bed. I wasn't too mad, but she just hogged the bed big time. Just close your door and BAM problem solved.
