  1. So you think your really it do you?

    spelling werds wrong is part of artistik freedoms,

    but generally for fonetik purpose.

    going between your/you're is differnt, because they mean two completely different things

    if one was to be clever and take a phrase that usually is 'you are' and change the you're to a your, to show possession, would be clever.

    to just mindlessly misuse werds is a destruction of language, of intellect.

    which, I suppose, if you're a troll, is an artistic goal, maybe that is the metapurpose of trolling.

    intellectual anarchy

    I hope it's worth it.

    Mind you, Joyce was only 'permitted'

    to write stream of consciousness

    non-punctuated/capitalized prose

    after

    he had proven his capabilities in the accepted medium.

    I guess we've come to a crossroads where we have to ask

    are we all now free from structure

    did the works of a group of post-modernists

    free all of us

    were they christ-writers?

    or must each individual strive

    and work

    towards

    the privilege

    and

    freedom to write however they wish

    with full

    'lyrical freedom'

  7. Neutral Milk Hotel, one of the most beautiful albums ever

    Is 'In an Aeroplane Over the Sea'

    So good, that it deserves a whole thread, dedicated to it.

    In an Aeroplane over the Sea is essentially a solo effort by Jeff Mangum, he has a band (Neutral Milk) and they provide some backing for this album, but what stands out is Mangum's guitar and voice, and his lyrics.

    the only girl I've ever loved

    Was born with roses in her eyes

    But then they buried her alive

    One evening 1945

    With just her sister at her side

    And only weeks before the guns

    All came and rained on everyone

    Now she's a little boy in Spain

    Playing pianos filled with flames

    On empty rings around the sun

    All sing to say my dream has come

    Yeah, those are from the song 'Holland 1945"

    which is excellent

    So, instead of looking for audio clips

    or watching youtube videos

    go out, buy this album

    listen to it

    become the king of carrot flowers

    and you won't be disappointed in this purchase

    come'on it's like 10-15 bux for an american treasure.

    Here are the lyrics to a song I wrote for the band a few months ago(longer probably)

    It's over a indie-bluegrass psychobilly thing.

    And mad props to Kurt Vonnegut.

    If you should, find yourself

    trapped inside a box

    ya gotta

    try yer hardest

    not to sing

    You may not know that

    much about oxygen

    but trust me

    I Do!

    God bless you Mr. Rosewater

    a wealthy man

    who wants nothin' more

    than to be,

    a fireman

    God bless you Mr. Rosewater

    Rockefeller

    got

    nothin

    on you!

    Road trip

    thought I was

    Hamlet

    wrote a letter to Ophelia

    to say I feel ya

    do you still feel me?

    SOLD ALL MY CLOTHES!

    traded them for

    firemen's clothes

    God bless you Mr. Rosewater

    a wealthy man

    who wants nothin' more

    than to be,

    a fireman

    God bless you Mr. Rosewater

    Rockefeller

    got

    nothin

    on you!

    FIN

    Yeah, it's just a cute little guy.

    Throw in a couple of 'Christ is Lord' lines and you've got yourself a christian top 40 hit.

    Leave the Christ is Lord stuff out, put in a few obtusely veiled references "This spirit brings me power" (really GWBUSH it up) and you have a potential Creed crossover smash.

    um, no not quite

    I can't speak for anyone else under the age of forty

    but I can speak for myself

    No collectivism here

    dig it?

    and I thought the whole namahage/redfish/bluefish thing was incredibly obnoxious

    I don't know if it was someone that legitimately dumb

    or a simple troll.

    But Kev, you're brining on the maliciousness in an equal amount

    so stop playing saint

    It's just

    irritating.

    we spoke of latent causes, sterile gauzes

    and the bedside morale

    we traipse around the table talking sentences

    so incomplete... please! plea!

    boys are dying on these streets...

    A long life, hardly

    wise, perhaps

    It's odd

    so many old folks enjoy the wisdom and sounds of those in their early twenties of long ago

    but not those of the present.

    Generation gap, dude.

    staying up til four in the morning is homework for musicians

    and part time jobs have a lovely habit of not starting til five pm.

    I have scattershot lyrics to post for hours

    lyrics that if read, really shed some light on the pointlessness of everything going on on the board right now.
