Illidan, are you the pseudo intellect of the forum? Why the are you referring to me as “dude.” Are you in the fifth grade or have you seen too many beer commercials? What defines a forum amateur; is it someone with 5 posts or is it someone with under 100? Are you a forum master cause you have almost 800 or are you some loser spouting too much empty rubbish and nonsensical crap to other one sentence typing forum rubes? Furthermore, who the fuck would want to be a forum expert or master? Its not like typing these lines is some sort of skill, you fake forum elitist fool. As for Nazism, I was drawing a comparison. I notice that you singled that one out, but not the one on Bush and the Patriot Act or Catholicism cause it favors your moron tirade while ratifying you as a pathetic forum elitist.
Regarding the 2nd paragraph, of course they are “your personal sentiments;” do you really have to show us what a buffoon you are by adding the redundant solipsistic adjective “personal” to that sentence when the pronoun “your” is already a sufficient possessive? As for the rest of that sentence, it is utterly pretentious of you to write: “if you come onto a website with an intensely controversial opinion and state it objectively and rudely, attacking the board users with unprecedented rancor, and invite attention and pointless responses (like this one). It doesn't help your case that your name is Blowpeth (though I think we've got to give you a little credit for that one).” Do you know me? How would you know what tone I am writing in unless it is based on your biased interpretation. You mention stating an opinion “objectively”, but that is stupid for the fact that objectivity is a philosophical impossibility because any time you compare something whether its cars, hotdogs, or Opeth you are leaning on experiences from the past for a comparison (
http://www.iep.utm.edu/o/objectiv.htm). I wasn’t rude, unless expressing an opinion hurts your little feelings, which it does, obviously. How was I “attacking the board users.” By definition attack (Go to dictionary.com) means- “to set upon in a forceful, violent, hostile, or aggressive way, with or without a weapon; begin fighting with: He attacked him with his bare hands.” How does what I wrote consist of “unprecedented rancor?” Can you give me several examples of “unprecedented rancor” to draw a compare and contrast? Additionally, “rancor” implies that I have some sort of malice for you all forum fools, but I am only having fun writing. Too bad your own insecure hateful minds are incapable of realizing that as the case. Heh, you all couldn’t laugh at yourselves if the reward was a million dollars for each person.
Then you go on another foolish rant about the baseball bat and guitar contrast. No, you guys are the types of fanatics that would bash someone with a guitar. My proof is all the unadulterated “I love Opeth” threads and responses on this site. Most hilarious about your sanctimonious statement is your attempt at wry irony with an undercurrent of phallic loving homosexuality by writing “I don't think we're capable of being so beautifully ironic - baseball fan gets attacked with the tool of his own pleasure.” In other words, you dig pugilism and hard wooden objects, but I am going to throw you a bone in half that regard for the fact that I despise anthropocentric cunts.
As for Britney and Avril, c’mon is there really a difference between their crass commercialism and that of Opeth who has bent their sound and style to fit the modern conventions of pop-rock with ‘Watershed?’ In addition, as I stated at the bottom of my last reply, I took that review off Metal-Archives, but made the mistake of forgetting to inform the board. Obviously, you didn’t read what I wrote since you associate me with being the writer, you idiot. And yeah, Opeth does suck, but calling me an asshole ain’t gonna fix the band or your poor taste. Furthermore, “asshole” by Linguistic and English morphemes is not a swear word unlike shit, which is what you have for brains.
Finally, Opeth have defined nothing with their music, and they are not an aesthetic art despite all their melodrama. But they have bent, stolen, and shaped the music of bands like Caravan and King Crimson enough to sound genuine to 13 to 25 year olds that never listened to the music of their parents enough to know they are getting shammed by Blowpeth.
And so fuckin' what if I call them Blowpeth, to me it ain't any different that calling Roger Clemens "Juice" or Bush a "buffoon." Again, you guys take this band and yourselves way too-fucking-seriously. Anyhow, they are already on the downward spiral just like Metallica.
