The intention was to make music.

It's imitative music. Bad and ingenuine music are both still music.

The intention was most likely to make something that would sell as music. And even if Dr. Luke actually cared, let's just assume that he gave literally 0 ****s, and not a single person involved in the making of it considered it anything but a product any more than a Ford employee considers a Ford car art. Is it art? Is it music? If it's not art does that mean it can't be music since music is an art form?

I assumed the size of my period would quell any further discussion but I guess that's what she said.

My ssd took a **** so now im reinstalling windows on what was supposed to be my gaming harddrive. Im not entirely sure my ssd is bad but my bios wont recognize it after trying multiple sata cables and ports that all worked fine with my 2nd ssd. Gotta find another comp to hook it up to for further testing. God i hate updating and reinstalling all my crap.

Went to work on no sleep from work yesterday. Still kicked ass at my job regardless of fatigue. Fed the danger noodle. Came home and took a nap. I'd temporarily left the job for like nine months. I met my replacement, who's coincidentally also just leaving for a new job. They replaced me with the identical twin of Jet Girl from Tank Girl. Shame she's leaving. I wanted a good excuse to say I work with Jet Girl fixing things.
