@ SF

Wow... he made a lot! ^^
I've watched 4 for now. He's good. Will definitely watch some more (^_^)b
He also did Wrecking Ball ^__^ His version is great as well – but he can't top Ron Jeremys fine body! ;) (Even though Ron showed up in his video again)

@ Utoptia

You could always try google to find the videos... most of the French rap videos you link are blocked here in Germany as well. I just look for other sources.

Well... his great respect for women and his “appropriate” glorification of violence leave me no other choice! ^^

Edit:
@ SF

(Don't know if I should say that now... but I actually always loved that song... (☉__☉”)
Gotye - Somebody that I used to know...It's a really good song!!! ;) )

@ Utoptia

Good one! And reading the translation of the lyrics I can say in all honesty that he deserved it ^^
As if the video wouldn't have been enough already... but the lyrics are even worse... He's got some ego. Gotta give him that...
I just wish I could understand French...

Here's another one everyone will probably know already... but it's still a good one ;)

Not bad... sure... but it still can't beat Christopher Walken dancing around in an empty hotel lobby... ;)

Oh... that reminds me...

@ Everyone

What's the best parody in music form you've ever seen or heard...?
It can be the parody of a music video or just the lyrics... or even just making fun of someone or something with a song....

Stuff like this:

I want proof!

BEST MUSIC VIDEO EVER!!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kj2uPyHRiQ

(Don't know how I could forget about this for so long...)

That's what music does to people! (◦’ںˉ◦)

OH!!! Totally forgot... Sorry!
Alvis wanted to know what all the folks that named history as one of their favorite subjects in school liked about it... right?

Well, I can only speak for myself here. But history felt mostly like story time to me ^^
I'm always curious about all kinds of things, so learning about our past was really interesting...

@ Blackkitty

I just wanna leave that door open, you know ;)

You can show me a horror movie and I probably won't get frightened ^^ But the image you paint of me looks a little too realistic sometimes... Makes me go all: (ﾟДﾟ)
That is frightening... and I am egoistic... (☼Д☼)
But you aren't oblivious at all...

Where did the starving part come from...? (@_@)
I am pretty lazy, true, but I can live on my own without starving ^^
I can appreciate an exquisite meal every once in a while but mostly I'm a pretty simple eater.
But I do eat, of course. Not just cake or chocolate... ;)

Okay, will keep the zombie... (for now... ;P)

@ MattoMaindo

Well... can't reject someone for sharing the same hobby, right ;)

Regarding your question:

The first profile pic I used was Super Meat Boy! Simply because I love him ^^
I changed it 2 times but only for a short while and switched back to Meat Boy again.
But then I talked to Blackkitty and referred to myself as a zombie a lot, that's why I changed it to the current one... I modified it bit by bit and added the gay pride/hippie theme with flowers and all ;)
It was supposed to be just temporary but now I've grown accustomed to his cute little zombie face and don't wanna change it anymore...

Oh, and that Jeff Goldblum gif you posted is great! (^_^)b
Don't know who made it but they did a neat job!

Sorry to disappoint ;)
But it's a 100 % platonic love (^_^) But love nonetheless... ^^

@ SF

Also, Here's some more music - https://soundcloud.com/jasinski/jasinski-moto-lotion-osc-79. Its got a bit of a Funk feel to it ヽ(〃＾▽＾〃)ﾉ.

I really like that song! (^_^)b

@ Utoptia

Guess I'll share some music too :

Same here. You keep reminding me that I never really disliked rap... ^^

Can't say anything about the lyrics though... Still don't understand a single word ;)

@ CCL

Anon sama so mean to me ;_;

T_T No intention... Don't cry!!! (☉__☉”)

I have one monitor and I swear it too many wtf guys D:

(っ⌒‿⌒)っ Love you!

@ Rina

I'll put them on my list. Thanks for the recommendations!
Maybe I'll give one of them a try...

For a more random topic, who is everyone's favorite celebrities?

Difficult question... I like a lot of them but absolute favorites...maybe Meryl Streep! ^^ I always loved her!
And for the time being – (almost) every actor from “Stranger Things”! (^_-)v

@ Utoptia

Anon's gonna leave a comment about me being anarchist soon ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

No, I won't, you little rebel you! (`･ω･´)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBojbjoMttI

(^_-)v

@ Utoptia

(Don't tell anyone, but sometimes I can relate to that as well...)
;)

@ CCL

Because babies have to come to this world the hard and bloody way! ^^

Maybe you just make yourself believe that... Are you really sure...?

@ CCL

You got a mechanical baby...? o_O
Does that mean you have mechanical intestines as well... (☉__☉”)

@ Utopia

Sometimes it feels like you quite enjoy to watch the world burn a little ;)

Hey now... don't be mean, okay?
Even though it does fit your profile pic... O_O

@ Blackkitty

If I ever was lucky enough to win anything that would make me rich enough, I'd start a self-help center for unmotivated and aimless people ^^
The bar would be there for the fun... (^_-)v

Guess I am ;)

o_O... your insight is frightening sometimes, you know... ⚆ _ ⚆
Guess you could say that... a way too old child but still... T_T
I've always refused to grow up... Don't know if that's a good or a bad thing though...
Work-wise pretty bad, I guess. Since I'm not good with too much responsibility and hard work...

@ Rina

Oh it wasn't an anime, it's a live-action J-Drama lol. But yeah, it's rather irritating that the story ended that way, but for what it's worth I would still recommend it.

That's even worse! ^^ I don't watch J-Dramas. Now I understand why I've never heard about any of them ;)

@ oliver

You would have become the near-dearth murderer we were talking about.

Well... in that case I wouldn't have minded, I guess ^^
When your body count goes past a few thousand... I'd say you lose all human rights.
He even killed kids and disabled people without flinching... Believe me, he wasn't worth saving...
It's a pity that no one managed to stop him sooner...

last edited at Aug 29, 2016 7:01PM

Told you you were a little anarchist... ^^

@ oliver

O_O You thought I loved Hitler and you still talked to me...? (☉__☉”)

Unfortunately there are still some that really look up to him and glorify what he did... but that's definitely not the majority! And definitely not me either!!! ^^

Hitler was a strange, little, deluded man with a lot of frustration pent up inside of him.
He was ambitious... I give him that. But there is nothing to be admired about him.

If I were born a little earlier I would have tried to kill him myself. I would have been killed anyway since I don't like listening to bullshit and I'm gay. He killed gay people as well. So I would have tried to make the best of it at least ;)

@ blinkkittylove

Here's a song for you!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-eclUz-RYI

And here's a song for everyone else

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKuMMXUROrE

(^_-)v

@ SF

Fair enough ;)
It's just always good to know which time zone we're dealing with.
But New York, wow... Could be worse, I guess ^^
Now I'm envious... I live in a small noplaceville in Germany where nothing interesting ever takes place... if I'd be willing to leave my family behind I'd move... but I'm clearly not ;)

@ oliver

Interesting question.
But it always depends on the situation, I guess.
What were the circumstances for the murder they committed?
If it was just a one time crime on impulse, then clearly, yes. Everyone deserves another chance.
But if it was a coldblooded killer who liked to torture his victims and killed several people just for his own pleasure... I think I would hesitate at least...
If it was someone like Hitler or Kim Jong-Un on the ground... I'd gladly wave them goodbye (^_^)/ „See you in hell, bitch!“
I'm not that good a person, I guess... ^^

@ Rina

… do I sense a little frustration here...? ;)
I would really love to discuss this anime with you but unfortunately I'm soooo not up-to-date with anything... T_T
That's also why I couldn't think of anything to reply to your last post.
Most recent anime I watched was One Punch Man... and it wasn't even yuri...
But it always sucks when producers force a story to go in a certain direction even though it doesn't make any sense... you see that a lot.

@ Alvis

English, of course! ^^
And foreign history and politics.

@ Galich

Imho "people making the same mistakes over and over again" is not a fair assessment, just because we have free will and don't share consciousness.

True but if mankind is unable to learn from past mistakes of previous generations then there's no reason for history books other than pure entertainment...
I'm willing to cut some slack on individuals but not always on the masses.

@ Utoptia

Let us know how you liked those movies when you've seen them.

I'm quite the hedonist myself so I can relate (and I'm glad that Galich enjoys this thread so much, I'm just trying to advocate some equal rights here ;P)

Regarding Pascal:
There's nothing wrong with concerning oneself with religion but he still always kept his logical approach to it (as far as I know). Whether we like it or not religion is a big part of humankind and their history. It influences people, even those opposed to it.
“The eternal silence of these infinite spaces terrifies me” That might have been the cause of his interest in religion.
And Pascal always believed that only the interaction of mind/intellect and heart/soul can be the foundation of a thorough human insight and comprehension. There's certainly some truth to that.
I don't know if or in which context he referred to animals as "soulless creatures" but since people had a totally different view of animals back in the day, I'd be willing to cut him some slack here, even though I really don't agree with this point of view.
But I also know that he said this:
“It is dangerous to explain too clearly to man how like he is to the animals without pointing out his greatness. It is also dangerous to make too much of his greatness without his vileness. It is still more dangerous to leave him in ignorance of both, but it is most valuable to represent both to him.
Man must not be allowed to believe that he is equal either to animals or to angels, nor to be unaware of either, but he must know both.”
And a quote of his that you might like:
“Lust is the source of all our actions, and humanity.”
Also Nietzsche paid a lot of attention to Pascal, as far as I know.

Please explain to me what caused the big bang to happen... and what was before that. Scientifically. I was always wondering about that... ;)
I'm just kidding, of course ^^

Unfortunately I can relate to Schopenhauer's view of life as well... T_T

(You clearly have some anarchistic vibes sometimes though ;) )

Don't mind big posts ^^ You can't discuss serious things with just one or two sentences...
But nonetheless, sorry for those two wallposts... (^_^")

@ Blackkitty

I'm late – again! (^_^”) Sorry, but I was really tired last night... didn't manage to get to you anymore...

(^_-)v If I ever open up a bar or a club, I'm gonna name it Homolulu as well ^^
Here's another one of her characters:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eU9HSgHaZ24
I wanna be like that too when I grow old ;)

Your definition of cute really is strange ^^
Don't you see the serious issues I'm facing...? O_o And you think that's cute...? (◦’ںˉ◦)

Well... I think I had the same experience with my father. I know him, we lived with him for a while but he was never like a real father to me... So I guess I can relate.

A little chocolate every now and then can't hurt! :)
I'm one of the few lucky who can eat as much chocolate as they want without gaining weight. Chocolate and ice cream. But I'm not really a big fan of ice. I rarely eat it. But there was a time when I ate a whole bar of chocolate a day. Didn't gain a single gram... But that only goes for pure chocolate. I can't eat those candy bars with different fillings or cookies. Those make me gain weight easily too. Don't know why. But I don't mind ;)

I also like her voice very much it's just a shame that she doesn't have a lot of songs...

(I read everything you post! ^^)

Awww... I'm so sorry to hear that. Losing a beloved pet is horrible. T_T

And to end this on a lighter note:

@ SF

You never know ;)
There are some really talented people here on Dynasty after all... ^^b

So... how are you holding up on your end...? (`･ω･´)
Where are you from by the way...?

Coming from a teacher, I would have expected a more moderate approach. ^^
But subtlety is not for anyone, I guess... ;)
And she died soon enough anyway unfortunately...

Well... watching the news every day... seeing people repeating the same mistakes over and over again... and all of that evil in the world, it is hard to prefer all that over my dog. Whenever I look at her she just makes me happy. Can't say that about mankind as a whole.

@ CCL

@ Utoptia

Sorry, I tried several places but couldn't find it anywhere...
You have your eyes on some very rare stuff, I tell ya ;)
But it's not even out on DVD yet... maybe you just need a little more patience... It'll eventually show up.

Regarding your question from last night about philosophers:
I guess, I admire the first known philosophers the most because back in the day, talking about more than 2000 years ago, it was quite a different challenge than it is today and in more modern times.
People like Aristotle and Socrates... they were the foundation for progressive civilizations.
“Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom”
Is one of my favorite quotes and I also find it to be so true.

I also always liked Pascals logic, I guess: “It is man's natural sickness to believe that he possesses the truth” and of course: “The more I see of Mankind, the more I prefer my dog” ^^

I'm really not an expert on philosophers, but Rosa Luxemburg was also an impressive personality, Never afraid to speak her mind in not always easy times (to say the least) ^^
“Freedom is always, and exclusively, freedom for the one who thinks differently.”
“The most revolutionary thing one can do is always to proclaim loudly what is happening.”

Can't forget Nietzsche, of course. That little rebel and pervert (^_^)v
He's probably the most interesting one from those last few centuries... and he helped quite a bit to form our modern civilization.
Of course, I also totally agree with him when he said: “Without music, life would be a mistake.”

And maybe I'll end this post with another quote by Pascal “I have only made this letter longer because I have not had the time to make it shorter” ;)

So what about you? Who are your favorites...?

@ Kyonne

I'd really like to listen to that song but sadly I don't have a spotify account and I really can't find it anywhere else...

@ SF

I thought that maybe you used one of those mix and mash programs... ^^

@ Rye

I don't really think that it's an evil thing to do per se – as long as you treat that „rich“ person with kindness and respect (- okay, that should be a mutual thing actually...). Marrying rich has always been a thing throughout human history.
But it's not really my kind of style.
I'd like to be independently lazy (^_-)b
I don't mind helping others out financially whenever I can since I know how much that can harrow people but I don't like taking money for nothing. I don't like receiving gifts in general. So I need to laze my way up on my own ;)

@ EkichoSHIFT

Who's that...?
Don't think I know them...

Unfortunately I can't afford to not do anything at all... But I'd like to get to the point were I can take some jobs just for fun or for contributing something really meaningful... not just to pay my bills...

@ Rye

What's wrong with having dreams...? T_T
Just kidding ;)
I know, I'll probably never win anything but I like the thought of it ^^
That feeling of hope right before you realize you've lost again...
Only the lottery can spare me a life of actual hard work! I don't wanna overwork my lazy ass, you know (`･ω･´)

@ CCL

Sadly you're not the only one with a weird sleeping schedule... (p_P)
