Well it was originally a play but the version I saw was a great film adaptation.

This is a heart.



Ah, Valentine's Day. The day when our capitalist overlords get filthy rich on selling us what's left of the diminishing chocolate reserves of the world in the name of love.

What's the point? Why do we need one day of the year dedicated to romantic love? Shouldn't love be something we share with each other throughout the whole year? Do we really need to make it any worse for those not in a relationship by littering pink decorations and roses everywhere? And those who are in relationships, won't they just get super jealous of the adorable couples presented in those Valentine-themed romantic comedies?

But I can't really say I hate Valentine's Day, either. Earlier today, while taking a walk in the park, I walked past a young woman, probably in her early twenties, sitting on a park bench: next to her was two bottles of soda, and a basket of food, I assume, with two pink heart-shaped balloons tied to it. I'm pretty sure she was waiting for her significant other
, and guess what? She looked joyful. This is what motivated me to even write this post. I'd all but forgotten that it even was Valentine's Day today, but then I was reminded that yes, to some people, Valentine's Day is a day of joy, and it really doesn't need to be taken that seriously.

And if Valentine's Day brings you down, remember that tomorrow it's over and you won't have to think of it anymore.

(try to)
Have a happy Valentine's Day!

36. Three dozen. The atomic number of krypton.

This is me and Linda's 36th Valentine's Day together. We were just sharing blown minds over that.

You should have yelled, "Hey, Boo Boo!", and then stolen her picnic basket.

Say what you want about Sabaton. This song gives me genuine goosebumps. Well, the Swedish version does. The English one is for plebs.

What's new?

Aight, some of you may have noticed by now that I've changed my username. This is because I never really liked "Briks" to begin with, but chose it for lack of a better idea. So I decided to change it to "Isbjørn", a Norwegian word meaning "polar bear", because polar bears are bitchin'.

Does this mean you're a pale, fat, gay dude?

The True Rules of MusicBanter


Aight, the members who register here can be divided into four categories. Some stick around. Some are spammers who get banned. Some lose interest and stop posting, and some stick around for a month or two before they get butthurt and leave in tears. If you're a new member, you probably don't want to end up in that last category, so here are some things you need to know in order to survive in the MB community. Drumroll, please...




  1. Thou shalt not speak of Butthead.
  2. Batty's ego is like a T-rex. Huge, and not to be stroked.
  3. Wait a second...
  4. Thou shalt not get in an argument with GuitarBizarre, lest thou embarrass thyself and thy family.
  5. Beware of the Grammar Nazis and the Political Correctness Army, or they will lynch thee.
  6. If thou feelest the need to ask whether or not that new member is Butthead, it's probably Butthead.
  7. Do not have a small avatar. Small avatars are for plebs.
  8. If "Anal Beads" is a poll option, thou art legally obliged to select it.
  9. Google seeth all.
  10. Thou shalt not use the band smiley.
  11. Thou shalt respect the younguns.
  12. Pet_Sounds is the Grammar Nazi. Isbjørn is the pinko leftist commie bastard, or so sayeth Batty. Josef K is the hipster. Machine is the one who maketh scary music.
  13. "Ja" > "yes"
  14. Thou must identify as a fan of Wolves in Sheepskin and Snake Walk, even if thou dost not like Wolves in Sheepskin or Snake Walk.
  15. Do not start a thread about an album.
  16. Or actually, do start one, but only in the "New Releases" or "Album Reviews" subforum.
