Me too, now.

...or otherhow prepared incorrectly, yes, this.

Happy birthday! (party favour noise)

Yeezh. I hate strep. Drink plenty of fluids, make sure you are fed (your immune system needs fuel to fight the good fight), get plenty of rest.

Popcorn by "Life by Dallas" "Garlic Overdose" flavored In other words, addictive as crack

I like the sound of that.

Shape of Despair, Monotony Fields -- a nice return to form after Illusions's Play (2004 album that followed the epic Shades of... and Angels of Distress) and Shape of Despair (2005 album). There's also Written in My Scars EP which I will have to check out, but it's not on their bandcamp. And apparently they have a first album/demo, Alone in the Mist. Doom Metal -- the slowest, most funereal doom metal. Spine-tinglingly great. EDIT: Oh, okay, it (Alone in the Mist) is by a previous incarnation, "Raven":

Especially considering it wasn't that successful a movie. Was it? I mean, I saw it, but that doesn't mean a whole lot, I was seeing a movie a week back then. But I don't remember it generating a whole lot of discussion.

I think that's all relative. My tolerance for cruft has seriously declined. I mean, besides, isn't it all about the signal to noise ratio?

Cardiacs, Sing to God -- unholy carp, this is gloriously mental.

Listen, chaff, blow elsewhere.

Sounds like squeezing blood from a stone.

Why even post that? I think we all know that. I think his point was that if you believe in the manufacturer's aural vision , then the best way to achieve it might be to find the same source and amplification. The way you said it takes all the art out of it. Now I don't personally believe that all manufacturers of high end audio are artists, but I think at least several of them succeed.

Aw yeah! I'm so happy for them.

Let's call the whole thing gone and in mah belleh! I wish.

It proves that the rumour monger is the bigger troll? It's just macho/juvenile bullshit, and it's pervasive across the internet.

But it would presumably impart their intent, I think was his point.

You say, 'schnitzel', I say, 'tonkatsu', Let's call the whole thing off...

Damn, dude, you're ahead of me.

Happystyle Pooku Yay just for the delightful name. I mean, just think about "presentation" -- you'll be smiling before you even put them on.

Yup, the power of suggestion. ...AND IT WAS DELICIOUS. I'm definitely going back there. It's only about 20 minutes due South of me on Route 1. Very authentic, they even spoke to me in German. "Auf wiedersehen", indeed. Kudos to Yelp for picking out a good one for me.

You just watched 3 episodes in a row? Wow. I found every episode draining. (At least as far as I've gotten.)

That's correct. As I already explained, it's encoded into the bitstream, so the bitstream needs to be untampered with. Think about it, they're putting a signal that has nothing to do with the audio into the audio, so if you do anything with the signal at all (including mixing it with nothing), it's going to disappear like a thread of string in a volcano.
