Isn't the whole point of the website to find out if a music album has been leaked i.e. readily available to obtain illegally?

Do you have the chance to jump to a quieter or better paid role once you've proven yourself in your current role?

I just wrote this really inane screed on facebook in response to one of those inane 'name the brands NOW name the leaves' wistful wannabe hippy bullshit images that someone posted. But I am growing as a person and people don't know how to argue properly on facebook so I deleted it. Or rather, I CTRL-X'd and I'm pasting it here in order to expunge it from my bileducts in a safe and controlled fashion.
Fight me you bastard hippies!! Or don't whatevs, I just bored my mrs for a straight hour on a similarly fascist jag and now she's buggered off to skate and hitbitches - I mean ladies.
"leaves keep us alive passively, without our active participation. Brands are things we interact with daily, either personally or through others or advertising. I don't see a value judgement to be made between the two, you might as well do the same with types of rocks and hollywood a-listers, it means nothing.
It makes sense that someone would recognise these powerful pop-cultural images, that's what they're designed for. They have a far more active role in culture than vegetation, but they're just signs. What are we supposed to be tutting at, the signs or the signified? The things they represent exist for good or ill, and our participation in them to a greater or lesser extent is up to us. But whether we actively use the products signified, it doesn't mean that instant recognition of the things they represent is a bad thing. Can you imagine our culture without signs and the ability to quickly recognise what they are and what they mean?"
why do you think that people get so huffy when you challenge them on facebook? The written-internet is exactly for that, having ideas and calling bullshit on others. Maybe it's because of how intimate Facebook is, it's more like going into someone's house and calling their bullshit in their living room or something.
//realised I should probably have posted this a new thread, it would come under EviLore's idea for a bright new tomorrow of blogposts.

People don't like being called out on Facebook cos they're insecure cunts who don't like being told they're wrong/stupid, especially when everyone they know is able to witness it. They just want to say whatever dumb shit comes into their head and have everyone be okay with it.
Basically they want an echo chamber/hugbox.

everyone knows you're a girl, stop this charade.
Nah, I was the kid at school that full on walloped the idiot who kept antagonising people when he thought he was a hard man.
You know the type, loud as a motorbike but wouldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight.

Gangster Paradise is dead.
That "UGH FUCK YOU GUYS I'M OUT" post was lame when Segata did it and it's still lame now.

I've told him to join us in the BritGAF ranks instead.Tom's a cool guy, would suck for him to quit GAF altogether.
Yeah, the only times people seem to agree in Gaming is when they agree to hate something.
Where's the motherfuckin' love?

All of GAF can get right up its own arse sometimes.
I don't mean to poke the bear or anything, but I can understand why people are getting frustrated with GAF right now.
A lot of Gaming and OT seem to be full of people spouting their opinions and shitting on everyone else's and there's SO MANY posts criticizing other people's posts for no reason other than to argue or cause drama.
On top of that, I don't understand a lot of the modding that seems to be going on - like Tash getting a 3 day ban for asking "where's the funny" on a picture in the funny pictures thread that really wasn't funny (a lot of the pictures in there aren't even attempting humour - so much almost-porn and "oh look...a thing..." in there it's untrue) and I REALLY don't get when stuff like you closing this thread for a month (OK, you changed your mind, but still) happens. What point was that supposed to serve?
Again, I'm not looking to be a dick about it, but I'm finding a lot of where GAF seems to be right now to be less than comforting. It's like GAF has lost it's direction of late.
Fluoride.
Not sure what you're implying though, except I do and it's not exactly all that nice a thing to really be saying.
That's a rule for that thread because otherwise it would be even worse. It's in the OP
