Well this is just low

It is a well-known fact Alexi was more hot in girls' eyes when he was depressed. Since he got better he hasn't shown so much his fragility in interviews and such. Of course you're gonna say "well he's aged" or 'the music's not romantic anymore', which are part reasons as well, but I think his inner change is the most important thing (in backing up that statement). Of course the style has changed, too, as well as the dressing. Like Alexi said himself, they changed because they (he) didn't want to act depressed anymore.
 
Post count of 8.051 posts full of bullshit. Fact.

You have nothing to back this up with except our disagreement with RRF.

I confess sometimes I do think maybe I just suck and everybody left this forum because of my mental illness which I fail to understand...

Altough I was diagnosed with intoxicant addiction and undetermined personality disorder when I was 20. After that I could've had many other diagnoses, but I've become a decent human being and took three years psychotherapy since. Now at 28 I treat mental patients myself and know I'm a fucking genious when I know my stuff.
 
Excuse me sir, 8.053 posts full of bullshit.
To be honest... I kinda like you because without you, me and the other guys would have nobody to "argue" with and without your stupid comments, that forum would have gone to "insert word here". But you also have to admit that 10 of 100 people here can back up your comments (in which way ever) and 90 persons agree with me that your posts are always full of bullshit. But thats you. My forum activities for the last 3 years existed of posting some tabs/covers and bashing Joonas for his stupid comments.

Your main problem is your so called "facts". And propably all of your "facts" are based on your opinion where you almost stand alone with (and luck for you that my english always sucks when I drank some beer ;) ).
 
Well, the way I see it is "haters will hate", and my wild ideas are often somewhere between lunacy and geniousity, and nearly always correct in the sense it can be interpreted in. I don't even want to go soft, I want to shock, that's why it sounds bullshit at first, but when you think about it, it's usually true. Like you have to admit Laiho would lose some of his mythical shine and image if he was never depressed or any of this wild child stuff. We have occasions where tragic life isn't necessary to be a metal star, like Chuck Schuldiner, but the thing about him was the controversy of being an empathic animal-lover and releasing negative through music.
 
Ridicilous? Every bit is true.

True or not true? It's clear people are interested in art that derives from personal tragic experiences more than imagined ones.

I'm not argueing with you about that shit. I know you live in your own world but if you think that everything is true what you've written, that you're always right and that all of your facts are unworhy of discussen, nobody can help you. See, if all of your things you've said were correct, why is everybody against you? Why says everybody that you're a douchbag? Why can't you read anything positiv about you? Why did everybody say that you are wrong? Why did even the new members think that you're an idiot after one week? Think about it. I'm out now

Typically you can only write/sing in convincing manner about things you've experienced and really know. So I think people are interested in the art because it's delivered in a no bs way, not because the background where the songs stem from is full of real life tragedies.

I reckon people would enjoy the music just as much, if somehow the person, who has never faced any shit whatsoever, manages to outline the same type of tragic themes in the songs in a believable manner.

I, for one, don't take much interest in an artist's personal life. I just like to listen to music. But hey that's just me.

The purpose of a song gives it the emotional context. It's so important. Sometimes however the music rides the whole thing with such vitality you paint the story in your mind and lyrics or explanations aren't even needed, but there is always a feeling or a mix of feelings. The creative urge and atmospheric power comes to the art FROM the artist's personal experiences, the salt of his imagination. Usually there is symbolism, such as Alexi telling about his troubling past in the form of 'Hellhounds on My Trail'. You can't just start writing empty songs about wizards. Once again I could say there's no denying this, but it's the way I think.

I don't get it, what exactly is so wrong about what I've said over the years?
 
I wouldn't want to go anywhere near Russia either especially after that government civilian contractor Snowden leaked all that shit about the NSA then ran off to asylum in Russia. Not that that has anything to do with metal. Just that as an American I would not feel safe in that place unless I was a traitor. Not that COB is American, but I am sure they are in love with America(ns).
 
You're sure the entire globe is in love with muricans ain't you?
 
No. Quite the opposite. I am sure most of the globe hates us. That is why I stay here in Texas. I'd rather get sick half to death of my own sort that completely dead from someone else. Well, that and I personally signed up to spy on jesus freaks coming out of Waco. Can't very well gather info on domestic terrorists if I go abroad then can I? I like to come to places like this as part of my crisis of faith to see who will try to save me from the fiery damnation of bearing false witness. It's pretty easy having a crisis of faith really since I see so many 'faithful' breaking commandments like 'thou shalt not kill.' I failed to account for the fact that this would attract actual satanists. I was 'made' like nine years ago, and have been operating with a total lack of security ever since I garnered a satanist who wanted to marry me. So now the jesus freaks won't pay sufficient attention to me because they are all obsessed with satanists. And the satanists are pissed at me because they think I SENT the jesus freaks. So I mean shit is fucked here too. But I imagine it would still be worse if I went overseas. When the fog clears, what you see if fucked up beyond all recognition (fubar). And after fubar comes permanantly fucked (poof- the oo are your tits because when you are permanantly fucked you are 'tits up'). I don't want to go poof.
 

Oh sure ever since 9-11 and the london train bombings everyone is so quick to think terrorism is an international problem. People remember those incidents. They remember the names of serial killers like Jeffrey Dommer. But does anybody remember Timothy McVeigh and the Oklahoma City bombing? Or David Koresh and the branch davidian compound? No. People living in Oklahoma and Texas have even forgotten these things. Terrorism was a domestic problem in the nineties, but nobody remembers that now. Everybody is so quick to blame this or that other religion or other form of government. They ignore the real threat that could be living just down the street. The threat that could be sitting in their own church living a life that looks just like everybody else.

Look at Snowden for example. A man that leaks was always planning to leak. He couldn't do it in the nineties because everyone was minding to potential domestic problems. He couldn't do it in the early millenium because the hunt for international terrorists (aka the people from whom he would seek asylum) was too hot. But just as soon as we caught our suspects, pulled out the troops, and things died down what did he do? He leaked. Nothing changed in that time aside from perhaps he got increased security clearance. The whole time he was an epileptic with a drinking problem that did not listen to his doctors. The whole time he blamed his country for his medical problems. It is just what I am saying: take a closer look at the guy in the pew next to you. Is that veneer healthy or does it cover deep seated resentments? If given the chance would he turn tail and run? Does he have a spine or is he just another shit eating worm? Maybe he isn't a terrorist, but do you really want to trust him with secrets?
 
Lots of bad things have happened to me, but I can deal with it. I have really gotten a lot better. But there are some things that still bother me. I don't mind being called crazy so much anymore. I can swallow that pill. But I hate it when people blame me, and I get positively furious when people cry for me. If you have an issue, you need to take that tissue to some counseling. Because I don't want to hear about how bad you feel. If you aren't going to do something to help me and the millions of other women and girls (and some men too) that suffer just like I have then I don't want to know about it. Don't come to me with some pity bullshit because I will probably end up with an assault charge after I try to kick your ass.
 
Hey, i am totally hijacking this topic. Because i did rather fuck up my own plan over the years. I think i have broken every commandment. Let's see 1. I am the Lord thy God. Broke. 2. Thou shalt have no other Gods. Broke. 3. Thou shalt bear no graven images or likeness. Broke. Even faithful people break that. Who hasn't seen graven images of christ? 3. Not take the Lord's name in vain. Broke. 4. Remember the sabbath day. Broke. 5. Honour thy father and mother. Broke. 6. Thou shalt not kill. Ok, i have not broken that one. 7. Thou shalt not commit adultery. Broke majorly. 8. Thou shalt not steal. Broke. 9. Thou shalt not bear false witness. Broke. 10. Thou shalt not covet. Broke.

I mean so it probably would have gone the same way irregardless of the appearance of actual satanists. Since i really only follow the sixth commandment... you know but i could get baptised again, and that would fix that. Adult baptism is very popular around here. It is different from child baptism because that is a sprinkle, just a little christening. I could go in for the all out lean back hold under dunk. I'd have to start keeping the sabbath, and take some bible class for awhile. It'd take time. You know i haven't even had my child baptised. We opted to wait for her to ask for baptism once she is old enough for a dunk. She is just dedicated to the church. She is not even christened. It's all unusual to me. I grew up in catholic/methodist. But now my mom has gone back to the more baptist tradition in which she was raised. I don't know if they even take communion. It is all so baptism focused.
 
Who gives a flying fuck? Is this a mental hospital, cause it sure seems like it!
