[QUOTE=Tacosheller;45334276]I really don't get this
is this one of those fake nostalgia, rose-tinted glasses "Oh man pop music from the seventies is so good aaugh my dick" things? Music's pretty alive now and it's the same quality, forty years from now the same current pop and rock music you hate will be revered and treated like how you treat old pop and rock music
Like when people say shit like "buhh music is dead" it just reminds me of 12-year-olds that are just now growing out of pop music but haven't found underground music yet
If you think music is dead, look around, listen to more music, because you're obviously not looking at the big picture
If you're actually interested, there's a guy named Anthony Fantano who does reviews of less popular music. He's turned me on to a bunch of new stuff.

for me, music is very much alive too, my favourite modern reggae-rock band dropped a new album (the dirty heads - sound of change if anyone's interested) this week and some songs on the album are meh-tier but most of them are quality, polished tracks and i'm very happy with where music's going, at least for my home genres
we have trip hop for crying out loud
music isn't dying
and Russian Turbo Polka.
Like jesus Christ it's like music from God himself.

You sound like every kid I meet on YouTube when I listen to a popular song form the 90's or something.
[QUOTE=Zillamaster55;45337024]The 80s sucked. Bad for movies (other than blockbusters), had some pretty awful music, terrible cars, terrible political events, awful styles, awful fads. Fuck the 80s.[/QUOTE]
I'm gonna have to disagree on the music part especially. Every decade has lots of pretty awful music, you'll be hard pressed to top the 90s when it comes to shit pop music. And the 70s has lots of great choices as well, such as afternoon delight (A legend in bad sex songs written by people who probably need sex explained to them), You light up my life (This terribly boring christian song was one of the biggest hits of all time), and dare I even mention [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97RjuC9YeXg"]disco duck[/URL]. Though the 80s of course had terrible shit like Chicago and Lionel Richie as well, it's kind of unfair to pick on the 80s for having terrible music.

slipping and falling straight onto your ass sucks shit through a coffee straw. snow absorbs sound at least tho, making things nice and quiet
In states/countries that get a lot of snow regularly, I feel that you should be required to be licensed to drive in those conditions. Too many times I see people blazing through red lights because they thought it was autumn still.

Where I live the roads freeze over like, 1 day a year. It's a great day to stay inside and off the road. So many wrecks.
Vice "news" is incredibly shit quality journalism.

What I mean is where I live, where the roads can freeze over for days at a time.
Social justice warriors should really put a hyphen in "cissexism" so it can be possible to pronounce.

Here the standard driver's license tests include driving in the dark and driving in slippery conditions by default.

The Moba genre is repetetive, oversaturated and getting to the point of being a cop-out. The communities for most of them are highly toxic.
unless it's Awesomenauts
Awesomenauts>LoL
Also there is such thing as good emo. Emo as a label exists attached to 2 pretty different musical genres. (See: Glam Rock vs. Rock)

Uhh, why would MRAs create it? Cissexism is the belief transgenders are below other people.

p. sure emo died out pretty much completely early 2000's, latest. It did exist, but whether it was 'good' or not is a matter of opinion.

It's definitely a matter of opinion as far as whether it was good or not, but there were (and are) some good emo bands around after the early 2000's, such as Algernon Cadwallader, Snowing, Grown Ups and Into It. Over It..
Even now, emo bands like TWIABPAIANLATD still tour around the US and Europe, and You Blew It! is currently on tour with Say Anything.
Sorry, I'm a huge emo fan. Wait, this is unpopular opinions, I'm not sorry at all, fuck you guys! [sp]<3[/sp]

wow fuck im dumb i thought it meant that there was a systematic oppression of cis people going on which is what i've actually heard MRAs claim
i just assumed it was an antonym to transphobia rather than a synonym
Here's something.

I don't like football and can't stand how everyone is only talking about it everywhere now.
