i'm sure there are already kids who think that rock from the 60's-80's is nothing but the same five classic rock staples

rock is basically gonna die with people born before 2000

there's this one dumb kids react video with whatever new song metallica put out and one of the kids is holding his ears and complaining that it's too loud and harsh

that's our future

Oh, no! You mean Sanders wasn't perfect? He actually took positions that are somewhat contradictory? Of course that means he doesn't care about minorities. My embrace of HRC as a candidate notwithstanding, I now reject Mr. Sanders and all he ever stood for.

Eschers Basement posted:

To follow up on this - Tip O'Neill (who was Speaker of the House when Carter was President) has nothing good to say about Carter and his staff in his memoirs, lamenting about how Carter assumed he could just intimidate Congress into going along with his direction just because he was the President, and that even Reagan treated O'Neill with more respect and coordination than Carter ever did.

As another example - in 1978, Carter proposed a massive energy bill that would have seriously put more effort into renewable sources and put more taxes into oil producers. As O'Neill tried to find compromises so that the Democrats could get it passed over Republican objections and a near unanimous opposition from the TX/LA/OK delegations, the Carter Adminsitration offered no help, and in fact every once in a while threw out suggested "good idea changes" that would wreck promises O'Neil had already made.

In the end, O'Neill got it passed in the House, but it got filibustered in the Senate and the Carter administration agreed to let it die because they didn't like the compromises O'Neill had made.

Carter is like a case study in why you don't actually want an "outsider," even if the idea sounds good. Although presumably Sanders wouldn't really be an outsider in this sense, since he's actually a Senator.

Trump... well, if we survive to read the accounts of his administration, they'd probably the best thing to come of the whole ordeal :laugh:

Increased turnout almost always favors Democrats. Realistically, was the campaign manager going to go on a press call and say "Actually, we expect to do worse than the last couple times, but them's the breaks?"

Jazz is a bunch of first year band students wailing random notes before practice starts.

Rap is people talking angrily over a five second drum loop.

Country music is rich white southerners with bad accents who want to have sex with their pickups.

Considering the metal heads you see in record shops kids would probably be wise to stay away.

Get them hooked on something less damaging like dungeons and dragons or huffing model airplane glue.

I don't actually mind the music that's currently popular though, so it's all good.
