hi guys this is a thread for appreciating the sort of music that trees would like

this is not a thread for posting what you're listening to right now because no one gives a shit

this is just a thread for talking about forest music of various sorts

if a tree would not like the sounds don't bump that jam in THIS internet hallway okay let's roll

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqS4BqikyWA

DAMN trees would love that song

there could be no wind and trees would be like "let's set to swaying!!"

why would trees love that song? 1:

reference to lions, which sleep in trees. 2: pretty lady voice 3: the rhythm four: the instruments

this is also not a thread for just posting a bunch of youtube videos of songs because let's be honest people only really listen to those when they are in a really good mood, and that is pretty rare b/c internet

so this is mostly for DISCUSSION of trees, this is NOT a forumer opinion thread

ok god bless

    There are acacia trees all over Seoul.

    They smell like grapes and flowers all smushed together.

    It's pretty cool. I'd never seen acacias before I lived here.

    They are pale green with huge clusters of drippy white flowers. Like bunches of grapes, only white. And flowers.

    I think I might be allergic to those or these crappy pine trees that spray yellow dust on everything, though, cause my eyes have been itchy as hell this week.

    I know, like, how people smoke weed

    I can see it going in the mouth

    I just don't know how people do it without spending the next ~two hours hating themselves

    also I wanna try ecstasy, I've decided. Would probably like it more than I liked acid

    I live in a neighborhood called Pyeongchang-dong. Yangjae is almost exactly opposite me in terms of farness-away. About 17 km as the crow flies, looks like. But seriously if she wants someone to hang out with, especially if she just got here, you should give her my email and we can get in touch.

    Hi, I'm Jack!! Long time poster, short time tree enthusiast. I'm from Iowa! :O)

    I think trees would like this song because it's about water.

    Trees need water to live! Most things need water to live.

    Trees also like cute people (I read a version of The Giving Tree that went a really lewd route once that proves this...) and those people are pretty cute.

    Hope you guys agree! Like, subscribe, and comment to this post... if you dare :twisted:

    is it weird that I legitimately can't figure out whether a lot of girls I know are attractive or not

    like it's easy to play marry/boff/kill with girls in the subway, but once I know them at all it's impossible for me to tell whether they're physically attractive or not

    so most of the time between one of them expressing interest and me saying no or yes is me going "? ?? ?? ? ?? ? ??? ? ? ? ?? ? ? ????"

    I think one of my greatest failings (and one of those I keep most secret in my Uninternet Life) is that I legitimately have this weird hang-up about dating girls that aren't generally considered attractive regardless of what I think of them, which is gross and I wish I were cured

    but I mean seriously though

    this is a serious thing that I am wrestling with in my life right now, and it is so shallow and stupid

    I think it's because my high school friends were so quick to rip one another apart for dating unattractive girls

    led to a lot of single guys

    (also I told my mom about some of my brain problems for the first time at dinner tonight

    and she was like "well when you're older and more mature maybe you'll consider coming to me for homeopathic treatment"

    which, like, I get where she's coming from, but thanks, mom!!)

    Willows are empathic-looking trees.

    Perhaps a willow can offer you advice.

    (I find that once I get to know someone I am more likely to consider them physically attractive because I know them and their personality shades my perception of their appearance.)

    (But you should probably get over giving a shit whether other people find someone you find attractive attractive.)

    I will give you advice through the form of a question

    what kind of jammies do you think trees would wear

    do you think trees care about what other people say about the "snuggie"

    it's pretty hard to tell a dude just to not care about something they're being neurotic about

    I mean, you got to know what you like

    like look at Hugh Jackman's wife

    240px-Hugh_Jackman_with_wife_Deborra-Lee_Furness_in_India.jpg

    personally I wouldn't call her attractive but I don't doubt that he thinks she's gorgeous

    yeah I should I just dunno how I was raised in a shallow family and grew up among shallow friends

    it's one of those weird doublethink things because as far as I go, I don't really give a shit what my friends' partners look like or judge them at all for the appearance of the folks that they date except for when they are really clearly just dating a guy/girl because they think he/she's hot

    and yet some intractable little part of me thinks that they are gonna respect me less if I date girls that ain't x/100 attractive?? I don't know, anxiety is a moron

    I mean I imagine that being surrounded by exactly that for any period of time is going to alter how you go about considering dating girls. And obviously there's something to just not being attracted to someone. But odds are you'll be a whole lot happier in your relationships if you can, okay, maybe not "get over it," but try to pare out your anxiety about the opinions of outsiders from that first "Should we go on a date" decision. Like, maybe they'll respect you less, but if they do and insist on vocalizing that...

    I mean okay, my grandmother put on weight as she aged, right? And once, my grandparents were having guests over for dinner and one of the guests came up to my grandfather and said, "Shouldn't Sandra really consider losing some weight? She's looking a bit heavy these days."

    And my grandfather told him that if he ever said anything about my grandmother's appearance to either of them, he would never be invited in their company again.

    I guess what I'm saying is, find someone for whom you're willing to be my grandfather in this situation.
