Pretty Hula Hoop Part Deux

Dubstep has the capacity to set up some fundamentally deleterious vibrations in a human body at high volumes. Been to quite a few venues in my city, varied settings, and most have one thing in common: Poor sound engineering and too much Db for the space....
The evolution of Dj's styles goes hand in hand with the kind of durgs available and popular nowdays-Less pot and hallucinogens and more pharmaceuticals and bathtub amphetamines has created an evolutionary path for the sound. The music was more creative and ethereal, beneficial to the psyche when the majority of the crowd were high on natural drugs.
The genres' turning to complete shit IMO, sort of like rap and hip-hop did (although in a much shorter amount of time) and this time I blame the drugs first, and the idiots who abuse them next-
Dubstep it seems bees morphing into an un-listenable schizm whose fans are as hollow and vapid as the creativity it takes to rub two cuts together and drop an angular, hypnotic beat in the "release all bowels" range of hearing

You know...you could just say, "I don't like it." No need to get all hipsterish on us.


Gad. I had no idea my opinions could be considered hipsterish!!.....i feel like I need to wash now

Cats: How does the Sift feel about our furry counterparts? (User Poll by UsesProzac)

Fletch says...

I love cats. It's the videos...

DFT wrote a tonque-in-cheek (I think) guide for cat videos in the cat puppet thread*, but I think it should be taken more seriously than it was meant. Cat videos of cats doing funny and interesting things are funny and interesting. "Look at this cat because it's a cat" videos are not.

Then again... I can somewhat relate to those who find any video with a cat in it worthy of an upvote and an "awwwwww". I'm a knife collector and there are gads of knife videos on YouTube that are nothing but other knife guys panning over their collections. I LOVE those videos. I think cat videos probably fall within a similar "to each his/her own" category, and I will no longer rip on them or downvote them.


*More accurately, the Sift Talk Blankfist sock puppet thread, not the cat in a sock video.

Season's Siftings (Sift Talk Post)

Waiting A Decade for Duke

schlub says...

Dude DNF is just not a good game - honestly. If this game gad been released a decade ago it would have even been a disappointment then. You know, they talk about it "being in development" for 10 years, 12 years, etc... but it wasn't. They slapped it together within a year, probably used the Doom engine they used a few years back. There is nothing revolutionary about this game. It's a rehash of D3D plain and simple. I think they used the same AI as D3D... apparently monsters can't see OR hear. Friendly NPCs won't get the hell out of the way.... and WTF is with the facial animation!?

It's tough to live up to your own hype, but I think in this case, they didn't bother. They just told themselves: "It has Duke Nukem, it needs nothing else.".

Variable Speed of Light? (Science Talk Post)

MycroftHomlz says...

Dude. The universe contains videosift. I know your name spells Gad backwards and you have complex and all, but seriously dude. Videosift is not on a separate plane of existence.

>> ^dag:

Interesting stuff. It's hard for me to get my head around a universe with no beginning.
(btw imagonna move this to the science Sift Talk out of the main - this is interesting but not VideoSift or video related which is the nominal qualification for being in the main Sift Talk)

Guy Movies (Cinema Talk Post)

Ryjkyj says...

Drax,
I couldn't agree more about "The Hudsucker Proxy". I can't tell why people don't like this movie. I think it might just be hard to take in all the rat-a-tat, fast paced banter but this really is one of the Coen's gems.

However:
It's funny to me that I couldn't disagree more about "Event Horizon". It's just Hellraiser with a space ship for gad's sake. How is it that people can associate "pure chaos" with just chains and razorblades? It would seem to me that pure chaos would be just that: something that you couldn't possibly understand any part of. You wouldn't even fear it after you got there because it wouldn't make sense. After entering, no part of you would be in order anymore. Thus, you wouldn't really even exist.

It's just like that movie "Sunshine" that I was excited to see. Great initial concept and then all-of-a-sudden there's a freakish looking sunburned guy chasing people around with an electric scalpel. WTF? Isn't the initial concept, i.e.: falling into the sun, entering a reality of pure chaos scary enough without all the fish-hooks and blood spattered walls?

Anyway,
I think I agree with most of the suggestions above. Especially "Conan" or: The story of one young man's struggle against adversity in a harsh, unforgiving world and how he wrestles a giant snake and eventually cuts off James Earl Jones' head with his golden sword-phallus.
Best Movie Ever, Period
