Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

The 90's were a throwback to the 70's, it was a reaction to the almost futurism and abstraction of 80's music. It's why EVERYTHING is an acoustic or amplified acoustic instrument. The reason the 80's nostalgia in music has been going on for so long is not that it is not nostalgia at all -- the progression of pop music from 50's-80's has been resumed.
edit* I mean, I love 90's pop music. But I think that it will be seen as somewhat anachronistic in the coming decades.
national embarrassment.
you need to find some new stuff quick man.

Tight End and Wide Receiver
I played Halo with him a couple times. We weren't huge friends and I haven't really talked to him since graduating, but I'd say he probably would remember my name if he saw me.
Ask him for money!

This is some bullshit right here. Everything is an acoustic? What the shit is this? Nirvana did more than just their "unplugged" concert.
The best music of the 90s was an outgrowth of the good half of 80s music. EG: Metal. You can trace it back to a very few pioneers in the 70s (Dead Kennedys, Queen etc...) but seriously: Fuck Disco
I think the "nostalgia" for the shitty half of the 80s is more a testament to the popularity and availability of E than anything else.
why is last.fm so dumb? I can't play what I want to play...

i dont get it.
The guitar is an acoustic instrument. Even an electric guitar has a pick-up that picks up the acoustic waves. There is a reason that overdrive (Big muff Pi, etc) came back in the 80's but you do not see a lot of bit-crushing, wave-table moduluation, etc. Distortion is simply a degradation in acoustic audio quality. Sooooo...you're wrong there.
Metal is not pop music. And people that say fuck disco are generally losers who don't like to dance.
Annnnnnd you might be right about the last part

Everything you just said about how an electric guitar works is either incorrect or stated sufficiently incorrectly that it would be unreasonable to expect people to assume you have any idea what you're talking about. Electric guitars are absolutely not acoustic instruments. The pickups translate fluctuating magnetic resonance into electrical signals, the sound happens at the amp. Distortion pedals can alter the electrical signals without degrading them perceptibly if it's a good pedal.

I'm gonna say no, unless for some reason your college has unreasonably hard intro psych classes.
Then again, I don't know how difficult intro college psych is for people who don't have school psychologists as parents.
Like, I did not show up to a single psych class and got an A in the class.
I'm confused. Someone explain it to me.
Okay. That's how it always was in high school but I wasn't sure about college.
Well, to be more precise, I wasn't as sure about the college courses a moment ago as I was at registration when I thought "Ha, these first classes will be easy, I don't need to wait until next term for 1101!"
into the shower I go
I mean if you have any psych background at all the baby psych classes will be especially retarded
I took AP Psych in high school and I took two concurrent 2000 level psych classes and did the same thing
Fucking humanities requirements.
Same old, same old then?
The teacher for the 98 class was an absent-minded dufus, though.
Oh, does a guitar cord turn the electroacoustic wave into a digital oscillation somehow? Oh, I must be terribly wrong. You're right -- it turned the acoustic forments into binaries. How stupid of me.
What about if they only take it up the arse a moderate amount, but are fat?
baby psych courses are usually taught by grad students or shitty stupid professors so expect the same
I've always spelled it doofus.
Though the concept of B-sides vexes me
What, losing one page of one of my tests and making me lose two points on my final grade?
Yeah that annoyed me slightly. I would have had a hat trick if I had gotten a 100 in that one course.
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
i get it
B-Sides are songs that may or may not have been released on an LP that are released on the single or single EP.
I see, I see. *scribbles notes*
And could you explain the tight end?
