~Academy Community Thread~

What are your top choices?

SO FAR.... University of MD (College Park), University of Missouri (Columbia), University of Illionis (Urbana Champaign), Indiana University (Bloomington) are my top picks.

However, I have also considered Notre Dame and Brown University.


IF for some reason I need to stay in state, I will probably end up at Ole Miss (last resort).

So an Ivy league school is towards the bottom of your list?

Ivy league = ridiculously expensive!

Srs. How would you pay for that?

Kids that blindly call themselves atheists to be part of some counter culture trend are lolworthy.

Theres lots of those here. They're all god lovers, too.

Claim to be an anti-straightedge anarchistic atheist at school, go home and pray to god for mercy and forgiveness.


Also, did you read my post on the last page?

The only way I could go to an ivy league is if they made a GREAT offer. And I'm not going to be worth it for them, so it is just a dream.

Yes, I did.

Anyway, I was talking about that Sarah girl haha. I asked her if she knew who YHWH was. She said no so I went to her profile to see what her religious views were listed as. And I said it was stupid to be an atheist. She got all pissy with "fuck you"s and "fuck off"s. So I said "so since you're so knowledgeable on the subject, can you tell me how you know there is no deity like figure?" No answer. "It's a very simple question that anyone firm in their beliefs could answer" No answer.

Oh yeah, amidst her pissy-ness. I said "just like christians and atheists" And she says "I'm not a christian" and "I'm not like a christian" lulz and I said "To run away from a discussion, yeah, that's like a christian"

I had a few laughs.

Also, dunno if you saw "Skin Ripper" and "Maggoted" in your inbox on facebook.

Can't listen til later.

Yeah, she's a fat, pathetic fucking faggot. Her favorite band is Shop Boys but she pretends to like MSI and The Used because it gives her so many "goth points". Not to mention she actually drinks chocolate syrup but claims she has no idea how she got so fucking huge. As for religion, she's Christian. She goes to church and prays to the invisible people. But she says she only goes just to meet guys.

THE RRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGEEE

MSI and The Used contribute to getting goth points?

hahaha i was puzzled about the same thing!

So I was talking to this kid on the BDSG profile just now. I saw an Iwrestledabearonce video on a website, and I commented that I hope they break up because they're terrible. She said she liked them. And then I said it's sad that people hear and see that then think it's what grindcore or extreme metal is about. Then went on to say it's as bad as shitty deathcore bands like Annotations calling themselves grindcore. She says she likes both those bands. And I say kids should be listening to Carcass, Impetigo, Haemorrhage, Insect Warfare, Napalm Death. Never heard of them. I give a link to Carcass' "Corporeal Jigsore Quandary" and say 'that's some quality grindcore'. She says she doesn't listen to music with labels like that, she likes bands because she likes the music or because the members are interesting.

Ugh. Fuck these kids. Fuck every single fucking one of them.

Okay... she also showed me a site called scenequeens where she had her own page. So I asked her why she was proud of the term scene.

Her response: I dunno, just means we're different.
Me: no... its was a term given to people others saw as mindless trend followers who lack the ability to think for themselves... they're just following the current trend
Her: well thankssss
Me: that's where the term came from i'm just asking why you like being considered that
Her: if i have what it takes to be on a big site like that, it makes me feel good.
Me: thats not what i asked.. but okay...

Reminds me very much of that little atheist bit from last night.

I'm on her side for conversation 1, and on your side for conversation 2.

I really don't see why you'd hope that Iwrestledabearonce would break up.

They fucking suck.

They give a bad name to grindcore.

Mainly stuff like that. ^

It's not really that I hate their music THAT much. It's just these kids listen to bands like that, then they think they're all bad ass. They say like metal and you ask them what bands and they shit like that, Attack Attack, and I dunno. All these popular scene bands right now.

I admit I used to be into the shit... but it got old real quick. I can't even keep up with all those damn bands now.

I've seen and heard Oli Sykes being referred to as the 'god of grind'.

NOT FUCKING GRINDCORE AT ALL.

They've got a few grind-ish bits on their last album. But that's about it. I do like his vocals, though.

I liked their EP but didn't like the album they released. Bleh.

You defend BMTH and hate on Iwrestledabearonce?

BMTH is the biggest scene band out. They got old real quick.

At least they have good music.
