hooah posted:I understand that, but I just don't get the appeal. But as oldpainless said, to each their own (in this case). Used to be in pits a lot, and the appeal is the physicality. It's basically dancing, except metal, you know. Always left the pit sweaty and with some bruises. Stopped doing it though because the risk of twisting your ankle or something is too great, even if the people are good, and sometimes they're not good... And I guess I just got old.

In America, blaming everything on capitalism will get you closer to the truth than blaming everything on communism. But that might actually be true of blaming Mesopotamia.

Yeah 18 year old me was concerned when I was going to local shows and skinheads were showing up. Finally ended up talking to some of them and they're like "yeah we're not racists we just like punk rock". Pretty cool people all around.

This is amazing work. As a student of history I can say that I’ve seen hundreds of gifs like this, and have shown little to no emotion. The gifs were just windows to a past I’ve never lived in, people who I never knew or would ever know. But this gif made me stop and evaluate. Putting Storm Troopers in made me actually look at what is really happening. Putting something that everyone is familiar with in a situation that no one knows, and to make people feel those emotions well, that takes amazing talent. Thank you.
