The US gave us Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan, so there's that at least.

to be fair I didn't think anyone outside of America liked Bruce Springsteen. But also Scarf is American, and therefore incorrect about him.

I just had a friend share a clickbait site with a picture of a dog with half its face missing, allegedly due to maggots eating it away whilst the poor dog was still alive.  Why would you shareeee that what makes you think anyone would want to see it

Here's the thing about both of them... They wrote great songs, but holy poo poo do I hate to hear them perform them. Other people perform their songs so much better than they do. See also, Neil Young.

If you're thinking about listening to Bruce Springsteen, you should probably listen to early Tom Waits instead. He has the whole washed-up drunken regret thing locked, and does a lot of fun, inventive stuff besides. I suppose Tom Waits' butt on an album cover probably wouldn't sell as many records, though.

I'd actually argue that Bruce has his most devoted fanbase in Europe nowadays. Though I saw him play in Newark a week ago and the Jersey crowd was on fire. But that's his homestate...

BobbyK posted:This troper doesn't care for football (which this troper humorously calls "sportsball") or Bob Dylan (which this troper likes to call "songsman") The Great Spectacle Theory - Basics "The great director" (a woman might call him God, Karma, man) sets up some plot twists, woman needs to deal with those twists as the plot progresses. If she is succesful, during the final, she receives prize for hardship of her existance (wedding, sex, child, a romantic dinner). A woman looks for problems that would enrich her play and put her in a spotlight. Also she can't be an antagonist of her own show. An antagonist never wins in fairy tails. A hint that she is a bad person, is the worst twist of them all. In this concept, the purpouse of a man is to become a great director, who holds strict control over woman's feelings. When he wants, she smiles, when he wants, she cries. He is doing it for her well being, because a woman who feels nothing, might as well be dead. Lessons? You can describe male - female dynamics by putting them in mould of the stage play. From woman's perspective there is no Alpha/Beta/Gamma[...] Men, there are those who give tingles, and those who don't. Every woman is a drama queen who needs plot twist (an adrenaline spike) to feel alive. Breaking laws, mocking rituals, redefining symbols, can give woman tingles. Cloud woman's logic with feelings, aquire sex (I bet that's why some communities hate on PUA) TRP is a buffet, take what you like and leave the rest

Rape is cool when it results in a free baby and not like, debilitating illness or death. By the way in like 12 states, convicted rapists can sue for parental rights of the products of their rapes. You could have to see your aggressor every other weekend for 18 years. Just another reason to be anti-choice.

I'm just sharing the picture in this case because I've seen it posted five times on my Facebook and really, do you want to see the comments on this? Also take a moment to appreciate the way it's cut off on either side. That just adds to it, I think.

Bruce Springsteen you say. Unrelated idiocy:  I love checking my other messages and reading about how I'm a latte-drinking woolen sweater wearing lefty in a café or the University, then him threating me with violence.
