Scarlett O'Hara

People like that really bother me. She wouldn't know music if it bit her on the ass.

On the topic of ignorant people, we're making top five lists in class, and my friend is doing "top five worst bands". He's putting my band in his list as a joke, and for number four he's doing Nickelback. He's like "hey, at least you're not as bad as Nickelback". Then this other guy is like "Yeah, but at least Nickelback writes their own songs", a stab at us because we cover songs. The total irony of this is that Nickelback started out as a cover band. But never mind this, what the fuck kind of a stab is that? Like, why don't you call out just about every other cover band? There's a difference between performing other people's material and recording it and releasing it as your own.

People like that make me laugh more than anything. Some annoying ginger freshman always tries to give me Skillet and Slipknot CDs because he thinks we have similar taste in music.

My friend the other day said I didn't have very good taste in music when she looked through my iPod. When I asked to point some out, she said first off, all the rap. That made me a little angry. It's like people think I'm a super poser that acts gangster while only listening to Tilly and the Wall or Between the Buried and Me or something.

But yeah, generalizing Rap is my button really.

That would be one hell of an useful skill.

What really annoys me is when people point out Soulja Boy as a reason to hate all rap/hip hop.

I've come to realize that 99% of people outside of MusicBanter are just plain not worth talking to about music. Which is why I spend time here. Hell, just yesterday my roomate said anything with a drum machine is automatically bad. I raged.

Wow, that really sucks. The music scene in my town is close to none existent, but I've socialized and drank my ass off to meet the few people I've found. Ironically, none of which attend the college I do. I meet people at local shows all the time, but you're right - these folks are hard to come by. It's almost to the point where I'm overly excited when I meet someone of interesting taste in music and come off as a complete ass. Also, I can see where your roomate is coming from, but I don't put it off as terrible music. For example, Buckethead - drum machine galore, but the guy can rip.
