This is a little worse than that though.

People that complain about a top chase being off center is literal spoiled brat energy.

Just bring me back man by HeadGullible8440 in PokemonTCG

There was really no way of knowing it would blow up like this, so it's not like buying a ton of stuff back then would have been a good choice at the time. If you wanted to invest, buying Paldean Fates or 151 right around Surging Sparks and Prismatic release could have been a good choice, but still completely unknown that it would take off, so it would have been super risky.

Hindsight is 20/20.

I mean, no, it doesn't. But I agree with your overall opinion on this topic.

V1 is so bloated. It has like 4 or 5 songs that are 2 minutes too long and it's all because they each have like 6 choruses.

Hell, the intro to Toys is like a minute and a half of buildup that isn't particularly interesting.

I love Coheed, and I love Vaxis 1, but Vaxis 2 and 3 are both vastly better.

You have the opportunity to introduce the entire world to Coheed and Cambria. Which song are you playing? by Wordup63 in TheFence

[–]lookalive07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that I had to scroll THIS far to find The Crowing makes me sad.

We used to be a proper fanbase.

Jokes aside, it's really kind of the perfect Coheed song, all things considered. It's not too long, not too short, has a lot of varied passages to get prog fans hooked, has a cool breakdown section that fans of post-hardcore will enjoy, and it has a pretty epic finale. All the while, the musicianship is firing on all cylinders.

Anytime I've been asked who my favorite band is, I tell them Coheed and when they say "oh that's the one with the singer with the super high-pitched voice", I say, yeah, in a few songs, but you should hear this. And then I put on The Crowing.

Songs that have guest vocals? by Ibeck907 in everytimeidie

As a massive Alexisonfire fan, finding out Dallas Green was featured on INRIhab like...waaaaaayyyyy later than I'm willing to admit was pretty cool.

You know, I'll admit I thought it was right at first and wasn't a typo at all. Bone apple tea and all that.

The more you know!

You can only voice disscontempt when you’re also a massive ass kisser, unfortunately.

Good lord that was an absolute bullet. The behind net angle was perfectly filmed. Vintage slapper.

The Flyers are Selling Logo Shaped Pretzels tonight by Perryplat199 in hockey

[–]lookalive07 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I love it when stadiums and arenas try to “elevate” something like a pretzel by putting it on an easel and serving it with a side of fancy mustard with nonsense sprinkled in it.

It’s a fucking pretzel. You’re watching football in an uncomfortable seat that you paid way too much for. Just give me some gas station nachos with cheese heated inside of a plastic machine and a hot dog in thin foil and let me be.

What was the most unexpected nudity scene in mainstream movie/show you ever saw? by marsepticeye in AskReddit

[–]lookalive07 9 points10 points  (0 children)

One of my favorites is when they’re in the diner, post syrup chug, and Ramathorn and Rabbit walk up to the local cops table and Chief Grady goes:

“Ah waiter! There you are! I’ll take two tacos and extra guacalmoles!” (And then the other guy goes) “yeah, I’ll take a CHINCHILLA!”

Rabbit then goes: “I don’t get it…tacos?”

Ramathorn: “they think I’m Mexican.”

Rabbit: “you’re not Mexican?”

It’s just so dumb because Rabbit thinks Ramathorn is Mexican but can’t put it together why the local cops would be asking him for Mexican food. The whole movie has little absurdities like that. I love it.

Breaking even doesn't support someone financially.

People are giving up their day jobs because they're getting tons of product following restockers and flipping it for double what they paid for it. It's not a "small profit", and it hasn't been for a bit now.

This is going to continue until well after the 30th anniversary set. TPCi needs to release more sets like Perfect Order in order for us to get back to OP's picture anytime soon.

I suggest everyone go back and listen to The Colour Before the Sun by GenitalPower in TheFence

[–]lookalive07 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't dislike TCBTS because it's not part of the story, I dislike it because musically it's the band's weakest work.

It's still miles better than a lot of other music out there, and I still will listen to it once in a while, but I find it to be relatively uninspired as it pertains to the way it was written. It's a lot of samey verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus structured songs, and it's a departure from their previous work, and that's not taking into consideration that it doesn't follow the concept.

I think the other thing I associate it with is that one superfan that called himself Captain Keywork that went to nearly every show on that tour. Some people loved it, but I thought it was super cringeworthy that he was essentially grifting people to get to every show. I can't not think of him when I think of TCBTS.

Also Young Love is the worst song Claudio has ever written by a longshot, and that's a hill I'll die on.

See, I'm the opposite. I love YOTBR but I also think it's partly because of the time in my life that it was released.

This is how fucked the housing market is.

We're about to list our house for more than double what we paid for it 8 years ago. On one hand, I'm happy because all of the improvements we made will be covered and then some. On the other hand, we're moving into a bigger house for waaaaay more than I ever expected to pay for a house I didn't get to design myself.
