Recently on the boards I have come to realize how there is an injustice of attitude going on. I pointed it out and was met with some hostility.It's funny how these days people are reluctant to discuss maturely about issues. It wasn't really a big deal ,basically in fun I wanted to point it out but once the ridiculous ignorant and narrow minded views came...

Wow! That was put beautifully.. I couldn't have said it better myself! I try to stay off of the boards that require any intelligent opinion.. It isn't worth it.

There really isn't any reason to discuss it. People show what they want to show, be they men or women. That's all there is to it.
lollypopsnaggler:
Yes and a very good point

I've been a fan of Fugazi since 1995, and I was first introduced to them as "Hey, check these guys out, they're emo too, you'd probably like them."
Emo died off in the mid 90's, when most of the bands playing it quite (ie, Jawbreaker, that was a big one). But there were little bands like Sunny Day Real Estate who kept going, and sort of kept a little bit of that emo vibe going in their music. They influenced other bands like The Get Up Kids and Saves The Day, who were more of a really soft emo band. They got tagged with the term emo, even though they weren't. Then those two bands got huge, and bands like Dashboard, and every single little "emo" band nowadays came out, being partially influence by STD and TGUK, and hence being called emo.
Emo nowadays, is partial emo, influenced by partial emo, influenced by late emo. I heard the term used quite a lot in 94/95/96... I'm sure I would've heard of it earlier had I been older, but I'm not.
In one of Fugazi's first interviews, the interviewer called them emo, and Guy said "Emo? Emo Phillips" and joked around with the term for a bit of the interview after that. Maybe you just didn't care to know the term that was being thrown on them, or you didn't care for genre labels at all, or whatever. But I know tons of people (my uncle, who played in a band that opened for Jawbraker, Fugazi, and others) who called themselves emo, and anyone in that scene knew it was referred to as emo, short for emotional hardcore.

heal soon, Bro
I am not going to automatically vote for Kerry because he's the lesser of two evils.That's why we have outside parties.It's the funniest thing to me that how immature both parties can be.I feel like grade school mentality is exceptable amongst adults.We live in a free thinking society yet people are so stuck and simple minded that they can't fathom the idea that just once...

Let's see what is Arlington like...I like it cause between Dallas and Fort Worth, it's ok the part I live in is full of rich snobs. Can't complain to much there are Sonic's on every corner!
I'm very excited! I just learned that there is going to be a feature made from the documentary about "Butterfly". Hopefully it will help open eyes to the needs that our planet so desperately cries out for! It will consist of an amazing cast.

Just seems like you and he were on the same visionquest to flame the p11 threads into oblivion, you, he, and about 15 others. Haven't seen flamin' like that since. Maybe people got spooked about the zot or something and are keeping their zippos in their pockets. But I definitely thought you two were sort of in cahoots. What set him off against you? (and when?)
