Safety Factor posted:That's not quite what I meant, but you are correct. I spent most of my weekends in the mountains as a result. I was trying to say that the prejudice I heard and encountered up there was by no means limited to small towns and, in fact, a major city with tons of international citizens was rife with it. Given my own background, I don't know, I wasn't expecting it. Especially not with the usual polite reputation of Canada. I was fresh out of college and moved up there basically sight unseen to work on applying an environmental technology to the oil sands. It was an attempt at making them much cleaner to produce, but poor management kind of killed the project. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iRjurRdep_Q

Coincidentally, I had watched all of Trailer Park Boys shortly before I accepted that job. Then I spent my first three months in Fort McMurray.

There is approximately 1 top tweet talking about the victims of the mosque shooting to every 30 tweet spewing poo poo about liberal bias in the media and something call "Coulter's law". It is VERY important to know if the attackers were muslim, but the fact that their victims were peaceful muslims doesn't mean anything.

Hacksaw Ridge is going to be compared to Saving Private Ryan, a lot, and for the wrong reasons. Hacksaw Ridge is a pretty solid piece of Christian Propaganda, basically. Enjoyable, but very overt in that way. Also, the violence is extreme. Do not see this movie unless you're cool with gore.

Spatulater bro! posted:Calling a record a vinyl is exceedingly common and accepted (although some purists will be annoyed at pluralizing "vinyl"). And buying records is more about the aesthetic of the product than the actual playback, at least for most people. Large artwork, big foldout sleeves, etc. I'd say you're right on the mark with "irrational". I've been collecting records for years and I never heard anyone say "vinyls" until all the lovely bandwagon hoppers came along and drove all the loving prices of everything up. Also if you want to look at pretty pictures just buy a poster. It's a lot cheaper. Get off my lawn you drat kids. Criminal Minded posted:I've always wanted to pick up the first four VU albums on vinyl and have them grouped together in a nice matte frame. On the off chance you actually plan on listening to them get the mono box from Sundazed. They're analog remasters and they sound fantasic. The set consists of the first three albums, a four disc called 1969 which is a sort of approximation of that the "lost" fourth album was going to be, and a mono mix of Chelsea Girl by Nico if you're into that. If you don't plan on actually listening to them: Burn in hell, scum. CelticPredator posted:That's what it says on the package That's because it's from Mondo. gently caress Mondo.

Man, in defending against criticism for not mentioning three Jews in their Holocaust memorial statement, the Trump Administration pretty much just "all lives matter"ed the Holocaust. I... I'm not sure I can make it through 4 years of this

Well you gotta forgive me because I have two records and the only other one I might get is the Alien one most likely during a screening because I can't stop buying dumb things. It will look cool on my wall though.

For what it's worth, I get the annoyance at some of the crowd buying vinyl, but I'm guessing a lot of those criticisms don't apply to CP - He's not exactly a fountain of pretentiousness.

having to flip an album halfway through automatically makes it better. LPs and tapes are king. double LPs can get annoying though, particularly if they're at 45 rpm.

I went to a vinyl listening party in college once and brought my Dinosaur copy of You're Living All Over Me, and about halfway through one side someone commented that it was really long. Then someone pulled out a three-LP Muse album with like two songs per side. I think I learned a lot about Vinyl People that day.

HMV is closing. They're the last record/DVD store we have here, aside from places like Walmart or Best Buy. They've been on a decline for a while, and were overpriced for a lot of things, but I'm still a little sad to see them go. It was always convenient to head to their store during lunch if there was something I wanted to get.
