Why am I listening to Less Than Jake?
More importantly, why am I enjoying it?

Less Than Jake - History of a boring town. Best song from my youth.
side note: had never entered the k-pop threads before and this was my immediate reaction upon doing so:
I love K-Pop threads.
The music not so much though

Oh the music is most assuredly trash with a few gems sprinkled here and there. Mostly from the 90s, but I am biased. Now it's just really creepy when I am in South Korea but even more so when I am in the states and the fans here are even creepier.
edit: I do like my sister's response when someone says "Hey you're Korean right, you look like..." and she answers "NO."

They tend to be rather....enthousiastic indeed. But they provide me with pics of hot Korean girls so who am I to complain.

I can provide you with pics of hot Korean girls ;_;
Who knew we'd see the day where the lyrics truly rang true.

But I was never really into them, which is the weird thing. I liked Automatic, but that was all I'd really heard. Also third-wave ska, outside of like Streetlight Manifesto and Arrogant Sons of Bitches (and Bomb the Music Industry if they count) is pretty much all trash so IONO WHAT IS HAPPENING.
EDIT: Also why the fuck is IE taking so long to load a login screen, where it's not even a login, it's just a button?

ESPECIALLY AS YOU'RE ON LOCALHOST WHAT THE FUCK.

I always had a guilty pleasure for them and Goldfinger. After that it was Bane, old Comeback Kid, Against Me!, and a few other random bands I would see in Atlanta, Georgia.

You like the concept of ska? I don't even know what this means >_>

Please do. You can PM if they are too hot for this topic
brass band + guitars and stuff
that just sounds righteous
but I listen to it and I get bombastic'd out pretty easily unless it's, like, the two less than jake albums i like or that one mighty mighty bosstones album i mostly like

I think piano punk should be a thing. It'd be amazing. Like this. Or this, kind of.
I just love the sound of piano.
EDIT: What do you think of this Mr J?

I LOVE the sound of piano. Classical remixes of songs are wonderful. Alicia Keys can have my babies.

Yeah Alicia Keys is awesome. She can have my babies too.
Will be easy for her with those hips though...to have all these babies.
Normally I would call you out for being crass and what for but the woman is seriously beautiful.
All My Best Friends Are Metalheads got me into ska/punk when I was a kid. Thanks Digimon movie soundtrack!

On a completely related note, since Hurricane Sandy fucked up Halloween for us, our community (Pittsburgh) is doing Trick or Treating tomorrow night!
Yay for late Halloween!
Training videos are hilarious.
But soon it will be MONEY MONEY MONEY

Dollar dollar billz y'all.
I don't really listen to ska much, but there are a few songs that I like.

So I got a bit further into 1984, it got really good, couldn't put it down, but where I am now, it's starting to drag on and I'm losing interest. Hopefully I'll finish it in the next 2 days, so far I'd say I'm enjoying it, it's just a little inconsistent. Next book I plan on reading, either Dune, Hyperion, or The Icarus Hunt.

Yeah, I still play it from time to time with my friends.
Cool. Well if you're interested in a game sometime I would be happy to play.
Add me on steam if you want. It's in my profile.

Dune is so much better than your other two choices it's like...not even a contest. And I love Hyperion. Read Dune.
I looked into this and yes they are still cool but only in an ironic sort of way. Officially, anyway.

This is where I get my Japanese ska fix.
Awesome, hadn't heard it.
Vaguely remember this band as a kid, crazy.
