britpop was probably the last time the old media monoculture controlled popular music so it's unsurprising that all these freaks are desperate to retvrn there were a ton of other music scenes going on a the time which have become far more influential and important in the long view imo britpop gave us landfill indie which gave us mumford & sons, it was always a path to ruin

Tesseraction posted:The splitting and refactioning of Rhapsody is still very funny to me. I haven't ever honestly figured out what is going on with the names, everything on youtube seems to use them interchangeably and I can't hear much difference. There is also at least one gloryhammer song that I think must be an intentional style parody because it sounds extremely similar.

The keyboardist and guitarist are founders and had a friendly split in 2010, with the keyboardist Staropoli maintaining the right to Rhapsody of Fire and keeping the original vocalist, Fabio Lione, and the guitarist making Luca Turilli's Rhapsody, and then that group split up and Fabio left Rhapsody of Fire to join Luca in a new project Turilli / Lione Rhapsody. And yes gloryhammer are a comedy band who play into the silliness of metal.

Ebola Dog posted:This infuriates me so much, I went to the GPs with tonsillitis, throat covered in ulcers for over a week before I went, barely able to eat or drink anything without significant pain. Get to the GP, he has a look, says it's probably tonsillitis, and then asks "what do you want me to do about it?". I had the same in my mid 20s. My throat looked like it had two bunches of white grapes down it. My flat mates took me to A&E because I was in a terrible state fever & all. The triage person put down 'sore throat'. Then when I got to see the doc, it turned out to be tonsillitis + pharyngitis + laryngitis all at the same time. Anyway, as I had had several bouts of tonsillitis over the previous couple of years, each worse than the last, I was finally able to get them taken out after a lot of arguing with the doc because they kept saying 'it won't stop sore throats'. It wasn't a wretched sore throat I was worrying about it was more and more time off work with fevers and extreme pain! Having them removed was a dramatic improvement to my life. In the 60s it was a pretty standard operation for kids, many of my class-mates had it done before they were 10 and were allowed to eat megatons of icecream. By the 80s when I had mine done we were forced to eat scratchy TOAST. Aargh. Had to take painkillers to eat! Where was my icecream (making up for it now  )

When I go to the garage I listen to the garage man and take his advice. That's why we have experts.

I hate when the doctor asks me what I think I’ve got and if I already know what I want them to do for me, because if you spend more than 5 minutes on webmd all roads lead to cancer anyway

Doctor_Fruitbat posted:If anyone thinks that the private sector is better or more efficient for healthcare then force them to watch this video and demand to know exactly which part is preferable to the NHS even in its current state. I wrote out a bigpost about the private provider I saw yesterday, but unfortunately I was mad and on my way back when I wrote it so it came out as an infodump that reads like one of those guardianista 'cromulent fuckcrustable' threads. Short version is in a unified NHS, I could visit my GP, who would look at my medical history and wrist and say "yes you need steroid injections" and then book me an appointment with a practice nurse who injects it. Even with 2 week delays you're looking at a month turnaround and staff and premises the NHS is already paying for. I now have to self refer to a company who don't trust my self diagnosis and can't access my medical history, and they refer me to another company who are apparently trying to administer physio to the entirety of oxfordshire, who don't trust my self diagnosis either, so essentially want to restart a course of physio before they'll even consider steroid injections. They were so shoddily run I had an anxiety blowout and left. So the upshot of the new, efficient private NHS is two companies that didn't loving listen, four months wasted and still no treatment.

They're so good - and prolific! They released 5 albums last year and there is not a single filler track among them.

Jaeluni Asjil posted:I had the same in my mid 20s. My throat looked like it had two bunches of white grapes down it. I think they'd thrown out doing it on the NHS at the slightest sore throat by the early/mid 90's, some girl I was in 6th Form with nearly died until they finally decided 'Oh yeah, this will sort you out'. Despite her repeatedly pleading with them to take them out and missing about 2/3's of the lower 6th year. Ah the pustulent Britpop head of Roll with it vs Country House for the number 1 spot, the worst songs by two bands with a lot of lovely songs. The comments on that leading to 00s Indie landfill murk is amusing too, like Sleeper/Cast/Menswear et al weren't mediocre guitar slop with no value whatsoever. At least Kula Shaker trailblazed the entire 'Rich Mum so I'll be in a band thing' that every charting band with a guitar's been for the last 15-20 years.
