I was waiting for something profound to be said by the peanut gallery. Forget the nut-swinging part, I sometimes forget that that slang I'm accustomed to isn't used everywhere. Instead of nut-swinger try sycophant, truckler, barnacle, adulator, or bootlicker. And just in case you still can't comprehend, those are all more sophisticated words for "ass-kisser" or "lackey." In calling you a sycophant I am implying that whenever Firebird has something flagrant to say, you are always right there to reinforce his senselessness.
Like you said, you personally don't care what music I listen to. Which is good, I would hope that no one gives a shit either way. Please allow me to apologize for misusing your definition of metalhead. I have always understood that a metalhead was a fan of heavy metal music. In association I have also understood that there are many different genres of heavy metal music. Ranging from Classic Metal, to Hair Metal, Thrash Metal, Viking Metal, Melodic Death Metal, Folk Metal, Black Metal, Hardcore, Neo-classical Metal, and Industrial Metal to name a few.
Classify the music that I enjoy and classify me as well, it makes little difference. I didn't post a reply here to argue about what kind of metal makes someone a metalhead. Or that only a "true" metalhead can make a valid point as you seem to believe. I posted because I'm tired of assholes like you two bringing all of this negative shit to Subkultures.net. If you don't want to read about peoples lives and how "my boss screamed at me, or my girlfriend/boyfriend is mad at me, or my mom and dad are fighting" then go somewhere else. Most people came here to meet people who have similar interests, people that they can call friends. If all anyone posted about was which guitar is better or how they just jerked off to the newest Zakk Wylde album cover then I guess you guys wouldn't have anything to complain about.
I hate to break it to you but this is an online community. For Christ sake the slogan is "We are Kultured." People are always going to post about what makes them who they are and what they're thinking and feeling. SK is full of "punk fags," emo kids, rivetheads, rockabillies, beatniks, artsts, goths, and geeks. So in conclusion this arguement cannot be won. I guess I just need to understand that along with the many subcultures one can find here, I should also consider the closed-minded, frivolous elitists who come and go from time to time and will forever be a vexation on this establishment. |
