Intriguing

pft, stuff numbers. graphics calculators. :)

Only reason I watched the entirity of that video. Anyway, I guess she's done well for herself, but I really don't like her. I'm pretty biased against pop, and any popular music in general. Except maybe the Strokes.

I just find her annoying. She's not even funny in my opinion.

personally for me, the idea of heaven and living for ever is actually more scary than just becoming nothing after you die. how many times do you get to use it?

nice. 2 more years and you can legally drink in america. to be perfectly honest, i don't see the point of posting this, but happy birthday anyway.

first thing to do is realise how awesome you are, makes everything better. if you're not awesome, just make yourself think you are. but anyway, getting over stage fright just comes with experience. the best thing to do would just be to get your band to play at a few really unimportant gigs to build your confidence. EDIT: sorry, didn't read the thing about how you've performed a few times. anyway, it's pretty weird that it hasn't gone away. i guess i've grown up performing music infornt of people, so it's nothing special. a question though, are you any good at speeches? you could try doing a public-speaking course, as i'm under the impression that performing in front of people and public-speaking are kind of connected. sorry if that's a crap idea, it just popped up in my mind.

Like what? The Animatrix covers the backstory; and anything that follows the third will just suck as the war is over :-? Neo died, trinity died, everyone in zion is dead. What could they possibly do now? Unplug everyone from the matrix - very unlikely. sarcasm. :) i thought, if nothing else, the whole fact i referred to it as a 'trilogy' would tip you off. but oh well.

what about the matrix trilogy? that could do with some more installments.

1. imagine you're being attacked by a vicious, beautiful girl. (why? you'll be screaming because you're getting attacked, and you won't be able to talk because she's beautiful. that's how it works, right?) 2. flip the table, making the 'coins' fly about in the process. man, i'm helpful. O:)

here's a brief outline of my musical tastes developing (just imagine i wrote classical music in each line as well): 1 - cleche christian music. most of it was pretty crap 2 - dc talk, newsboys, other poppy bands, mostly christian. 3 - p.o.d., chevelle, blindside, other light metal bands, still, msotly christian. 4 - zao, the agony scene, chevelle, blindside, etc. 5 - dillinger escape plan, between the buried and me, ion dissonance, etc. oh, the good old days.. anyway, i still listen to some of the bands from 4, and some of the bands from 1 and 2 when dad's driving the car, but mostly i don't listen to music that i liked even two years ago. the major thing that's affected what i listen to is probably my brother. i pretty much stole my musical taste from him (he got me into metal in the first place, with p.o.d., blindside, and other bands). then he decided he hated metal and liked indie, and i continued liking metal and also started liking indie.

i kind of wish i wasn't addicted. it's the same with prison break, i just want it to bloody finish, but i could never miss an episode. -.- the worst part about it is, i know i'm never going to find out what killed the pilot in the first episode, what the hell is with the black smoke, or where the polar bears came from.. why? because the writers are making it up as they go. :)

meh, my friends already know that i play runescape.. that's probably the only "shame-worthy" thing i do, and i hardly even play it any more.

napoleon dynamite. 'nuff said.

yeah, it's not like they steal stuff or anything. >.>

haha. i want to be him.

Maybe show us your ingame stats next time?

pft, make me jealous why don't you.

Good luck. :)

There are other songs I like more right at the moment, but my two favourites over the last year or two would be : Selkies, the endless obsession - Between the Buried and Me Loved ones - Poison the Well

Dude, nothing's better than Yu-Gi-Oh. "And now I combine my THREE blue eyes white dragons, so I can destroy the world!" "0 n0ez" You can't compete with that.

Yey for classical music! (No sarcasm.)

Nice treasure trail rewards, attack level, slayer level/drops, and lots of other things. Keep up the good work. :) 9/10 (10/10 when you post your bank.)

When labelling a band a certain sub-genre, unless the band has already clearly labelled themselves as something, the sub-genre that you choose to label them by is really at your own discretion. For example, I would call Job for a Cowboy metalcore. Regardless of whether or not that label works for other peopel in relation to their music, it works for me. Death metal is kind of a wide term for me, so if you'd like to name a few specific bands you already like, I'd be more than happy to help steer you in the right direction. If all else fails.. last.fm. :)

Tomdavies has a point. And to dragontotem, it's more constructive to actually attempt to get across the point that these goals are ridiculous than to give the poor kid false hope. I'm not saying this goal can't be done, but the actual chances of it happening with someone who hasn't shown any previous dedication to a reasonably extent in even one skill are kind of low.

Good luck.. I don't really see why you need a thread for it though.
