To me a lot of metal just seems like it don't know when to shut up.

Like, for contrast, some of that classical shit I like.

When he sings the high Fs, note how the orchestra drops out. It's touches like that I miss. Mozart knows when to back off and shut up.

And the few snippets of orchestral or symphonic metal seem to me like the musicians are less interested in the different colors and sounds you can get out of an orchestra and are more drawn to the bombasticity.

Now, metal's extremely varied and stuff, and making generalizations is a bad idea in these situations. I just find that seems to be my most consistent complaint. So big and over-the-top I can't get into it. It's something that bars me from a lot of anime.

Fanfiction I hate.

Stopped listening to NW after their first singer left, but the third incarnation has Flor Jansen, so I'm legitimately looking forward to hearing what such a soprano powerhouse can do.

Folk or progressive might also work, Ayreon and Eluveitie use a ton of classical instruments and the former probably making the most hammy rock operas with high production values.

"No will to break."

I like a little of everything. Mostly it depends on whether I personally like the song.

I think my dad has a weird way of how to handle asking for family help. I told my teacher that I thanked him for giving me help on how to treat my mom, and then I told him, and he wants me to keep all that business in the family, EVEN THOUGH IT'S MY TEACHER AND THERAPIST'S JOBS TO HELP INTERVINE AND GIVE ADVICE!

A lot of people seem to be like that. People don't seem to like the idea of spreading information about their family's faults to the outside.;.. which is a pretty unhealthy attitude, and really unfortunate that it happens.

"keep all that business in the family" seems to be my dad's catch phrase

as if I would care enough to talk about any "family matters" with my friends

i think i mostly want to see what happens when this whole place breaks apart

So if anyone's heard, Discovery is ending its partnership with Hasbro and taking back The Hub to turn it into Discovery Family Network. While Hasbro is still going to have six hours of programming to itself in the middle of the day, this may mean our favorite technicolor horse show is soon to be without a home in the US.

There's rumor that Hasbro will be taking their shows to Cartoon Network, but to be honest, I hope they don't. Even if CN hadn't already proven themselves more than happy to cancel a show if not enough boys are watching it, part of me is afraid they'll shunt it around the schedule without advertising it, then cancel it unceremoniously. Let's hope for the best though...

If the higher ups have any brains or awareness of the show's popularity, I'm sure they'll take good care of it if they get it. It's hugely popular with a surprisingly wide fan base, and they would get a lot of hate if they let the show fail.

You have to understand that if the show ever goes from self-owned to having a network executive, they'll be even more subject to Executive Meddling than they already are. The Cartoon Network execs might push for it to get Denser and Wackier, because it seems like those are the only shows they like to advertise anymore, and then we end up with shit like the abandoning of anything even vaguely resembling an ongoing plot, all but cutting Fluttershy because she can't be flanderized into a cartoonish asshole, and medium-shift gags from Pinkie Pride happening every other episode.

Better they get it than The SpongeBob-TMNT-Breadwinners-Tweencom Network Nickelodeon, I guess.

Shouldn't the fact that Hasbro still has 6 hours worth of programming in the middle of the day pretty much put an end to all these "Some other network will buy the show and possibly ruin it/the show gets cancelled" rumors? Still, all the discussion I've been seeing about this {Both on this site and on other places} is making me really paranoid.

I think some people are simply worried about what may happen if the deal doesn't work out.

Let's hope it works out then.

Hasbro shows have done pretty well for the past 30-or-so years without a network and I'm sure they'll be fine afterwards.

Also, I have to say again, Snyder is gone and there's new management. It'll take a while, but it seems that his policies are disappearing from CN, especially since it looks like Steven Universe looks like it'll become a full-on action show soon.

Gavan, Let's get jiggy!

Hey,don't be dissing the new TMNT show,its the only legit good thing they have left(well,good thing they have left thats considered good by genral populus>I actually like the Kung Fu Panda cartoon.Haven't watched Korra so no opinon on that but I'm not having to high expectations going in).

@Music I love all kinds.Metal,rock,punk,rap(well,Eminem and some songs from other rappers),country(grew up listening to it for most of my life),musicals,etc..but I don't care for the Bagpipes,esp. that since it sounds so damn similar.

I've become recently have became more obsessed with the band Tool.There music videos are so fucking weird but at the same time so awesome looking(I'm a sucker for stop and claymation as well as surreal stuff that makes no sense).Aenima has become one my favorite song by them(besides Parabola).

I wasn't dissing TMNT. I haven't watched it yet, but it looks interesting. The point I was making is that Nickelodeon loves advertising some shows at the expense of others.

I wasn't aware Snyder was gone. What made him step down?

I believe he had a beef with some new executive at Time Warner, so he voluntarily stepped down.

As far as music goes, this is what I have stuck in my head.

Guys! It's been almost two months with my girlfriend! I'm happy. Hah... And my mom thinks I'm straight. XD

Denial or simply unaware?

Fanfiction I hate.

I've denied being anything but straight. But I think she's pretty dumb for not knowing, cause I don't ever talk about people I like. Since I like every gender, and it's usually (a) a way older male or (b) not a male.
