It's kind of abnormal to be that obsessed with the developments of pattern recognition tbh.

Babymetal are pretty basic modern metal sewn together with a very basic and stereotypical take on J-Pop. Definitely not a band that's all that musically inventive. They're just a sandwhich of two things.

My ex-wife was manic depressive / bi-polar. It wasn't easy. One time she stayed up for 10 days straight. Too many stories with bad memories attached to them. So was my sister [R.I.P.].

Maybe pushing people over the edge for your amusement isn't always the best course of action.

that's a theory I have at least (I'm sure I'm not the first)

Just want to re-iterate, the Dead Sea Scrolls, the oldest texts of which parts of the Jewish and Christian cannons are based upon, were found by scientists to be a fabrication. How is this not headline news?

When we start talking about religion, sepcifically, origins of religions, the sh*t can get pretty dicey. Sooooo many schools of thought that have valid representation and backing. Before I die, I want to have as close to a 100% accurate view of history as I can acquire.
