even if he had just written that, he would have been a legend
love me some Schönny
it always amuses me to see Schoenberg and Webern become synonymous with the kind of music that causes people to flee that concert halls
when they basically epitomized romanticism in their early music
it's true! I think that Schönberg even sounds more like Wagner than Mahler.
I used to frequent a classical forum and there was always a handful of goonish anti-modernist types who'd dismiss most post-1912 composers as hacks
perplexingly, one of the most virulent of the group practically fetishized Wagner
I love it when modernist people get dismissed as hacks. It might be a valid claim for certain postmodern artists, but most of the early moderns were academically trained and could bust out the old beaux arts if they wanted to.
Man, I'm sorry, Arch, I didn't realize that that was a serious question. I was just fucking around.
Naw dude its cool
I kinda made him qualify it as a serious question before I actually answered it
I fucking hate the obvious jokes people make when hearing something like that.
Like I said, if I'd've thought he was for real, I wouldn't have said anything. I get the same fucking jokes about my name every time I hand a credit card to someone. It got old long ago.

I kinda made him qualify it as a serious question before I actually answered it
it was serious from the get go but it did cross my mind to joke about it once or twice
I understand, but the way it was initially proposed smacked of the kind of set up to jokes that I have heard since my peers realized what a blowjob was

When I hear jokes about my name, I just use it as an opportunity to drive home just how unoriginal the joke is. If I have to cringe hearing it, they get to cringe at my reply.

I changed my name because I was tired of getting the "Question, Mark? hahaha" line. WEll, partially. The other is that Mark just sucks for a name and Turing is soooo much better.

You... could have asked. But my name is really Turing, but I wasn't born Turing.

I felt it was rude....but in retrospect given who I would be asking I realize now that the barriers on what is "rude" in the context of asking you questions is kind of high

Thousands of hot, local singles are waiting to play at bubbulon.com.
The last few pages of the vegetarian thread make me glad I don't live on Planet Asshole.
Since that's the only way these issues could actually come up in real life.
"Hey, thanks for inviting me to a dinner party several weeks ago. Now, as it's mere moments before we eat, let me haughtily remind you of my very specific dietary needs and how the current meal fails to satisfy them, thus making you a horrible host and a worse human being."
"Wait, what? Why the fuck didn't you bother telling me any of this when you RSVP'ed several weeks ago? And why are you wearing an astronaut costume?"
"The answer to both questions is that I am a visitor from Planet Asshole!"

it was a little creepier than that
I just inadvertently flushed my coolant.
Much better.
Can't lob the bombs unless you know how they're made. Things will improve.
They were constantly annoying.
That's... not true at all.

Unless he's drowning in mercury because someone fitted him with some gold shoes.
it was serious from the get go but it did cross my mind to joke about it once or twice
But if he's on fire I might pee on him although other less derogatory methods of fire extinguishing may be available.

So someone merged XKCD and Achewood with the needlessly long form of VGCats.
That's funny.
I mean, in the meta sense. Like how you'd laugh if a dog, a cat, and a deck of cards were combined with Jeff Goldblum.
But not funny in content. No sir.

I really try to please you guys sometimes. I do.

Like get one of those pilot training g-force thingies the airforce or NASA or whoever uses and turn the cockpit 90 degrees.
Just hop in after every meal.
This may not actually be a good or healthy idea...

True story- I thought about this one time
I planned to test it by lying down on a merry-go round thing that kids can spin real fast.
You know, the ones that generate a lot of outward force?
Strap myself in, feet outwards and have someone spin it really fast after I ate to see if it helps
I don't think it would work. It would just simulate gravity pointing in a different direction. An inclined bed would have the same effect.
Or do you mean like, 5gs, forcing that food down. Because that could work...
worst case scenario I get really really nauseous, and thanks to both my lack of peristalsis and the nissin fundoplication I can't throw up!
win/win!
No first authors yet of course, still.
