Ahh, several things strike my mind;
First thing, a little recent, a friend of a friend of mine who likes most of the metal we do thinks Amon Amarth is abysmal compared to Cradle of Filth. Now, I don't mind people not liking the same music as me, but her reasoning was just...... flawed. "Amon Amarth sing about Vikings. Who would wanna do songs about Vikings? That's just ***. Like, with COF, they do deep songs about fictional stuff--" and the rest was just human dribble.
Next, also pertaining to music;
"It's all satanic and about the devil."
"It's all screaming and nonsense."
"Rap has more talent."
"Dimebag is a pussy compared to 50 cent. 50 cent got shot 9 times and lived. Dimebag got shot once and went down easily."
"Lil John is the closest thing to rock and roll any black man is today."
"No breakdowns? What am I gonna dance to?"
"If you can't understand the words, what's the point?"
"Hardcore is a step above emo..... or was it a step below? Either way, you're still falling down the stairs." This one I loved because it was so random. My friend was drunk when he was saying this, which kind of makes it funnier.
My other friend always says at least one stupid thing each time I see him;
Whenever we ask him about how his practicing is doing (he "supposedly" plays rhythm guitar for our band) he would say; "Dude, my days are so packed, I never have time to practice. I go to school, then afterwards I have to do my homework, then I play PS2 for a while, and then I have to go to bed. Between that and work, my schedule is just jam packed."
In a discussion about why Slipknot is nu-metal, his point was; "Whatever man, I still think of Slipknot as death metal."
Not only are the things he spews from his mouth stupid, but the **** he does; He broke all 3 PS2's my other friend had, and recently he had also dropped my other friend's laptop, causing it to lose ALL of our material; songs, fliers, and whatnot. Luckly, I had most of the stuff on my computer, but that **** is just dumb. And he doesn't apoligize. I know this is a "What dumb thing did you hear" thread, but I just think it's worth mentioning.
