My Friend a Musical Ass Bag
I have this friend who whenever I tell him about music he pretends to act like he know a lot and spouts random garbage whenever I speak to him, this pisses me off so much because he pretends to have expansive knowledge of the entire genre of bands I tell him about yet only barely knows about the small number I do tell him about. Here is an example of what I mean, here is a facebook conversation I have had the misfortune of having with this arrogant sack of ****. I would like to mention I am 1000% sure he has never heard one song by crass, except for the one on some facebook punk quiz he cheated on that was one of the questions, and the douche bag boasted about how he is soooo into punk, and that he only used his mp3 to help him. He also got UK subs from that facebook quiz. He said that he just found the songs on his Mp3 but i know its bs because he only punk bands he listens to are Bad Religion, NOFX, Sum 41, and Pennywise. I could barely contain myself when he said that the UK subs sounded like "a cross of crass the clash and .... the raincoats and steve jones", i will admit that I have only heard 4 songs by them but all he did was say they sounded like 4 random bands I have talked to him about, and when I disagree he says he simply says has a "strange outlook" and "thats just how i preseve them", if by strange outlook he meant deaf dumb arrogant compulsive piece of **** than yes, he does have a strange outlook.
Sorry in advance about the horrible grammar in this I was just po'ed when writing it.

lol
there really weird sometimes
8:07pmMichael
lemme check out some songs
8:09pmMichael
I don't really see it, they seem more like a traditional 70s british punk band
8:09pmTaran
thats just how i preseve them
i usually have a strange outlook on bands
like normal punk to me is all nofx or pennywise because ive listened to them for so long
8:12pmMichael
but i mean that they sound like traditional 70s british, im not saying they sound like just punk thats not really sufficient information as there are so many sub-genres
8:13pmTaran
what song did you listen to?
8:13pmMichael
4
hmm new york state police
cocaine
and warhead
can't remember the other one
8:15pmTaran
tomorrows girls?
maybe?
its one of there singles
8:16pmMichael
they sound little bit oi too
8:16pmTaran
have you noticed the slits vocals are really close to the yeah yeah yeahs in some songs?
8:17pmMichael
i don't think so at all, Ari up has a british/Jamaican accent pretty sure they don't really have much common ground
which songs?
8:18pmTaran
i know what boys like and maps
8:18pmMichael
that isn't by the slits not even close is it some kind of obscure cover?
8:19pmTaran
i dont know
perhaps
that would explain alot if it was
8:20pmMichael
How the hell did "i know what boys like" ever sound like "maps"?
From there he didn't say anymore thankfully.
