SHUT UP!
I think we probably ALL understand what it’s like to pour ourselves into something totally and fully only to have no one give a shit. Just stop feeling sorry for yourself. No one else does – at least not because no one liked your shitty music festival review. If anyone feels bad for you it’s probably because you are having a pseudo-public breakdown on a music blog. But even still, I think the majority of people that read this website wish you no specific ills, just that you please shut up about whatever it is you are using to try to get attention and just get some sleep and relax and realize that stereogum is not the world. Even if your world is music blogging, it’s not the real world.
Seriously, Michael_ – do whatever the fuck you want. But I’m just asking you personally to stop making everything about you.
I came to stereogum.com and all I got was this lousy comment argument!
No one cared about this the first time you posted it last week. What makes you think anyone will care now?
Not trolling here: because it’s fresh in everyone’s mind and not only did it ban same-sex marriages, but civil unions and domestic partnerships for those in same-sex partnerships AND heterosexual ones. The feeling is that NC voters were either mislead, misinformed, ill-informed, or just so staunch in their feelings about traditional marriage that they (potentially unknowingly) hurt themselves.
Obviously your feelings and opinion aren’t wrong. But, unless I’ve missed something, Laura isn’t your parent, sibling, best friend, girlfriend, boyfriend, wife, or husband. So taking it personally is perhaps misguided.
You should be able to move on from this without it being a big deal. Because for you (and me, and probably everyone in this thread) it isn’t a big deal.
No one is saying “You can’t ask these questions!” Ask away. But every single one of these comments is the opinion of the person writing it, and as much as anyone has a right to question, anyone else has a right to answer. It’s internet discourse – something you all seem really god at, so let’s all just fucking chill and roll with the punches and have a heated conversation and we’ll all be better for it in the end.
Meh – what are you going to do.
Also, Pete Burns from Dead or Alive.
You don’t HAVE to say “YAY,” unless you feel happy about it. But what about objective reporting of facts? I suppose that’s not entirely why people flock to stereogum, but if your opinion may muddle up the writing, why put it (your opinion) in the article at all?
Anyone thinking about how this affects THEM should maybe not be so worried about it. You are probably the last person on Laura’s mind right now.
That is really selfish of you.
Yeah that line in the article bothered me as well. Very condescending.
Seriously.
You people wouldn’t know good Mado-medy if it bit you in the tits.
Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait WAIT! Back the boat – UP! Where’s the cover of “Get Together” I do in my head in drag AND the cover I did of “That Song From Evita” in the shower this morning?
I would venture a guess that Skrillex has more female fans than James Blake because James Blake made that pretty sexist comment about women not being able to like loud, bass-y dubstep.
Probably a little too clever. They really need their signs to say “fags” and “faggots” or it just isn’t a WBC function. But I would settle for a shirt that says “Faggot Queen”. “Queen of Queens” is too sapphic for my M4M leanings.
I kind of want a “Queen of Fags” shirt.
This song is really great. The whole album is, in fact. But this is one of my favorites.
men are pigs.
You’re projecting. I’m sorry we disagree.
STRAIGHT GUILT IS SO HARD – seriously all I can say is we disagree.
And I don’t know how many times I can agree with you that I don’t know you and I still respect our opinion, but as you keep saying things I’m starting to lose respect for that opinion because you seem to not be listening to what I’m saying.
Making an example of? To whom, exactly? The stereogum commenters? They haven’t cared about this since people stopped talking about Bon Iver and Lana del Rey. You and I are probably the only ones actively commenting on this anymore.
Stop saying “no homo” and maybe I’ll believe you. We’re clearly at an impasse – and I guess we’ll have to agree to disagree. Such is life. Please don’t be upset by my opinion. I’m one sad lonely person that disagrees with you. I still respect your opinion as a person.
I still don’t see it.
I should say, “I don’t care about your sexual orientation either way.” I do, in fact, care about this conversation.
True, but I think because Antony didn’t transition in the middle of or after their career. I also say “their” because, though I’m fairly certain Antony’s transition was male-to-female, I feel like I always read people using the masculine pronoun set. It is possible to be neither, and I think that maybe Antony is neither.
