You should become the NBA-GAF suen, start supporting another team. Their minds will be blown.
Pick Lakers.

I'm with Heat and Clippers right now. I can't go the Lakers :/
why would you support two teams in the same league?
Just caught up on the thread, so I'm a bit late to this one but I had to comment on this post. I've loved Radiohead since I first heard them when I was about 15. I've been told it's depressing, morose, etc. You're exactly right though. It's people confusing the sound of pure beauty with depression. To me, a song like 'Exit Music' makes my hair stand on end and my heart race. It's the exact opposite of depressing. And yeah, Reckoner is a stunning song. The sound of one of the best bands ever assembled at the absolute height of its powers.
It's similar to what people told me about Sigur Ros. They were wrong then too. You just learn to ignore them.
Arcade Fires first album really is incredible. They came out of absolutely nowhere and the damn thing hits with the weight of a lead brick to the heart. There's better bands overall out there, but no one in my lifetime has ever debuted like they did. Maybe The Stone Roses, but it's pretty fucking close. Everything since hasn't been on the same level (third album in particular) but they're still far better than 95% of bands out there.
As for what I saw about Joy Division earlier... I fucking love that band. I'm a bass player because of Peter Hook. He taught me that I didn't need Led Zeppelin style skills to perform songs. That a strong melody and rhythm were all that was required. They pretty much invented post-punk, which I think is one of the best genres in music.

I'm fine with bandwagoners as long as they stay with the team from that point on no matter what. Especially if you're foreign.
People calling you out are angry because the Heat and Clippers have only been good the last few years. It's hard to blend in with fans that have been there forever because there have never been that many compared to fans from other teams. Clippers especially have always been shit and most of their fans are only fans because they are hipsters. If you ask them why they are fans, and they will most likely say because they don't like the Lakers and their popularity.
NBA gaf is a lot like Football gaf and they know which posters are new immediately.
I guess you're right. I ignore it anyway. Not taking it so serious with them. NBA GAF is mostly gone anyway. They send me links to their new board but I dont have the time for another community.

If you keep posting, they'll stop teasing you.
NBA gaf is home to a poster that is a fan of the Lakers and Celtics. He still gets called out on it, but only occasionally.
The BBC left that bit out of the Pogba interview.

Go get him, FootballFan!
Congrats on La Decima.
Funeral is one of the best albums of the decade 01-10. Maybe the best. But as a band, I don't love them that much. They're just good.

I wish it was Chelsea, I have a feeling those 13+ years of Atleti losing to us no matter how bad we were is coming back to bite us. Just like last years copa del rey final.
I'm just happy we made it to the final.

Hardest working athlete I have had the privilege to watch. Truly all around great player.
When Ronaldo used to be a winger. Those were the days.
If we still had Higuain, he would still be so. One thing Benzema is good at is giving Ronaldo and Bale room in scoring areas.
I'm also Madrid fan. That was quite the beating we gave those fucking Bavarians on Tuesday right?
Glorious.

First person to quote this, who doesn't support City, Chelsea, Man Utd, Madrid,Bayern or Barca (with special exceptions) gets a Club Nintendo code from a game
Second person gets one from another game, which I'll give you tomorrow

Is this like one of those 'Expectation vs. Reality' jokes?

Wait, you can't use them universally? Lame.
They're for mainland Europeans it seems, and the UK. No Scandinavia

We need LVG now he's gonna need all summer to sort this crap out.
What's a Club Nintendo code?
I think it looks boring. People love to hype those PSN/XBoxLive games but I don't think it looks very special.
I'm not sure about it, mostly because of the Ubisoft name attached. It's almost a rule for me that I don't like Ubisoft games. Very few feel satisfying and fun to play. But it's still tempting me.
watch the giantbomb quicklook
I only feel that way about their big budget games.
I'm not interested in Child of Light because of the turn based battles. Not my thing.
