Haha, someone was playing some of their music and my Indian flatmate asked if it was "Sting the Police". :laughing:

Just so you all know, Northern Ireland is part of Britain and I am northern Irish...

So I moved to england to study drama and English at college, and at first my English tutor was convinced I was American, then asked me if I had a 'catholic o or protestant accent', then one day when she was talking about the British National Anthem I asked her what it was, as I never learnt it and she said, "Oh don't be so stupid Rachel, why would you ever learn someone elses National Anthem?!"

This being a woman who went to Oxford Uni...

^ no its not

I beg your pardon?

I think he means it's not stupid

lol nvm i was going to wait for your response saying that yes it is part of Britain , and say no it is part of france, and make up a random fact to be ironic
seeing as its the stupid thread

oh i only wish i had 1/3 of your intellect.

i am bored
hence
i will now post this

me; yes 1984 is a quite a good book, the movie was alright dude
Guy: how did that guy go back and write about 1984 and have the events turn out totally different, then when he was in 1984
me: palm face

Me: Do You listen to Elliott Smith?
Friend: I think i've heard of her.

Another one...same friend

Friend:ya know I think Morrissey might of been gay

wow... that had to have been the dumbest thing i've ever heard. how the f*ck does someone come up with such stupid questions??? what the hell was going through his mind??

Guy on another forum I use to go to: You have to know music theory or else you're not a musician

pulled this from a forum on myspace:

"o.k. so the other day i’m hanging out with my friend and one of his friends. i’m wearing my CANNIBAL CORPSE burtchered at birth t-shirt(greatest shirt ever to wear in south phoenix), and i mentioned the song jumprope spraywater by BAD ACID TRIP. then my friend’s friend starts yelling at me about how i should only listen to one genre and how i can’t be talking about a band like BAD ACID TRIP while wearing a CANNIBAL CORPSE t-shirt . so i just wanted to know when these music nazis came about and what the **** is there problem"



i don't know why he didn't do it, but if i were him in that situation i would've beaten that guy's face in until it was as concave as i could possibly get it. seriously, how could you be that IGNORANT!!?

wow, whoever said THAT must've been a complete retard!

Actually one girl has told me two of the stupidest things I've ever heard in my life:

1. "Hey you know how we can dig to the other side of the earth?"
"sure"
"so why can't we dig to the moon?"

That was so serious I couldn't laugh.

2. "yeah well I guess on the upside, the cold weather does kill all the mosquitoes"
"the cold doesn't kill them, they just migrate"

One time, waaaayyyy back in high school, this girl on the bus was talking to me about how she couldn't decide whether to be a vampire, or a vampire slayer. I thought she was joking, so I chuckled, and then she got offended. Yeah, that was pretty weird...

Wow, totally queer. Although theory can help, you sure as hell don't need it as much as you need air to breathe to write a song or play an instrument. Just a basic understanding of it.



A few stupid things, some said sober, some said drunk, some funny, some not.

"Hardcore is a step above emo, or a step above it. Either way, you're still falling down the stairs."

"Slipknot is so death metal."

"How can you like listening to that music? They can't keep a beat and you can't understand the singer, if you can even call him that." (In reference to almost every band I listen to, even ones that have clean vocals and simple 4/4 beats. People just can't ****ing hear.)

I'll have more later, I'm tired.

some dumbass at my school asked me if its possible to piss in your ass.

I was like wtf


haha

**** **** piss ass **** ****

One time my friend said that Led Zeppelin was the first metal band.

I hope they get hit by a bus.....anybody that ignorant doesn't deserve to live.

So I was just watching "So You Think You Can Dance" (yes, I watch it and love it!), and this girl who auditioned is convinced that she didn't get through because "the judges are racist against tall people".

" Are there trees in the rainforest?"

I have one somewhat like that:

"That kid's so homophobic, he's afraid of straight people."

...we never let him live that one down.

Not really that stupid since it's actually true.
'Steely Dan sounds like some sex toy'.

my friend didn't know that mickey d's is mcdonald's and that IHOP stood for the international house of pancakes! hahaha so funny!

One of my best friends asked me: "How old is a deer before it turns into an elk?"

And another:
Me: Dude, who cut this pizza, Hellen Keller?
Friend: Haha, I don't get it.
Me: Are you serious...?
Friend: Isn't she a model or something... why can't models cut pizza?

abba - a very good rock band.

haha, wow. Don't you hate when people don't get the simplest jokes? Then you have to explain it and it just ruins the joke. Then you're mad at your friend all night.



One of my friends said that some of Behemoth's material sounds like old Cradle of Filth. I haven't heard anything before "Cruelty and the Beast," so I can't vouch for that, but my friend thinks of Midian as "old" Cradle of Filth.

Same person was also listening to my guitarist play an Immortal song, and he said, "That's too dynamic," without bothering to elaborate or anything. We honestly believe he has no clue what the word "dynamic" means.

he probably thought it meant good

EDIT: if so thats ****ing weak

A little homeschooled 16 year old seriously asked me how to spell "the" ....

Friend: Ok, if you had to rate me what you I be?

Me: um...On a scale from 1-10?

Friend: Yeah

Me: Ok, on a scale from 1-10 you are Hitler.


Actual conversation haha.

Actually, what he said makes perfect sense, though I'm not sure if I can think of a "dynamic" Immortal riff. A riff can have a notable amounts of change or complex activities in it, and someone's taste might permit for too much change or complex activity within a riff.

But here's the dumb thing. He doesn't know that. He's just spouting these words out like he's the know-all of music theory when he spend most of his time playing Guitar Hero, time he should be using to practice playing his bass for us.

Who are nirvana?

I mean, COME ON.

thats pretty bad

That's nothing..
Once my friend's phone went off in the middle of class and her ringtone was Imagine.. and after she got her phone taken away by the teacher I said to her "John Lennon is ruining your life," and the kid next to me asked "Who's John Lennon?" Turned out like 3 people around us had no idea who The Beatles were.

Sad times.

That is incredibly sad.

Three Days Grace is better than GNR............:crazy:

I said something pretty stupid. I called a Jewish girl a Nazi for not selling me cigarettes.

I had an argument with a girl who insisted that Madonna was:

A. A rock singer
B. The most influential musician ever
C. The greatest musician ever

Yeah I have a kid at my job who calls me a "Hippy-Nazi" all the time.
