The best classic rock album of all time.
Time

I like Breakfast in America by Supertramp. I had an acquaintance that committed suicide after high school during a drug induced rant, and I always connected the song Goodbye Stranger to that. The lyrics “feel no sorrow, feel no shame / come tomorrow feel no pain” reminded me of the incident, all of the lyrics sounded like they applied to that situation actually. It makes it difficult to enjoy listening to the song, even though I would consider it one of the greatest songs ever written or performed.

I just recently picked up a copy of Damn the Torpedoes by Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, and I really liked it! I would have to listen to it a couple more times before I could say if it was one of my favorite albums of course, but I definitely see why it is considered great.

There you go again. Not putting a space after a full stop. Did no one teach you proper grammar?

Even if not, why can’t he learn?

This is not correct.You have to put a space after the period and before the next word.

This is correct. I put a space after the period and before the next word. Also note that you have to capitalize the first word in each new sentence. This is correct. this is not.

after nearly 80 posts in two days ninedy percent of witch were complaining about other users he stopped posting for over twelve hours.so i hope that means he has decided not to keep causing trouble and starting trouble.if i werent such a troublemaker id not be starting trouble and trying to start crap.i wonder if he will keep on posting in off topic.other than spamming adys thread briefly all he did was complain in off topic.so lets hope not.

Hicksville is likely the only place left where people think listening to rock and roll is a express ticket to hell and evil deeds. What would they do if some homicidal maniac had a complete collection of Lawrence Welk?

You’d be surprised about the amount of people who are still concerned about rock and roll. You’re right that it’s mostly just hicksville, but a significant amount of the population lives in hicksville!

Possessed is right. Catholicism didn’t come around until at least 250 years after the death of Christ, which in itself is LONG before Russian Orthodoxy (Russia wasn’t even a country yet, let alone having any exposure to Christianity). Churches in the Bible were not united in any way other than their connection to Paul, but seemed to exist purely to serve the people in whatever Roman province they were located in.

The Catholic churches must be different than regular Christian ones. I recall a pastor out in hick-ville (where I used to live) that had some very nasty things to say about George Harrison. This was a bit after the whole “backwards masking” farce of the 80s, but since I lived in the land that time forgot I suppose it just caught up to us because I heard a lot of BS about playing Led Zeppelin and the Eagles backwards too.

Offensive Words
Time

I am not offended by any specific word, but the words deemed offensive are always based on the culture you’re in. Keep in mind that the word nigger is not considered offensive in most European countries, or at least not Eastern Europe anyway. The reason, because Europe does not have the deep south, or the history of violence against black people that the United States does, which is why it is so impolite and offensive in America. On the other hand, however, the word Paki is incredibly offensive in the UK at least, but in America I don’t think anyone would bat an eye at it, or even know what it meant. Fag is also another term for cigarettes in Britain!

I think every situation is different and the context always matters as well as the intent.

I was referring to Frink specifically, but who knows, maybe DominicCobb is too. Frink thinks that one word that refers to mental illness is dreadfully offensive when used as an insult, but another synonymous word is totally fine.

Some people get offended by certain things, that’s the way of the world. I get offended when people stand in the way like mindless idiots at the grocery store. Will you bombard me with pages and pages of posts about why that’s an inappropriate thing to be angry about?
