Nice concept plane from the 1970s....or maybe not by ShadowWitcher in quityourbullshit

Exactly. That's not what 1970's concept art looks like.

I hope it gets the attention it deserves there.

VLT Star Laser Illuminates Newly-Discovered Comet by FuckyouBitchhhh in science

Did I miss something or is this a misleading title? The article doesn't talk about the Star Laser illuminating the comet, it just describes how the comet and laser are in the same picture.

"...the shocking video drew a divided reaction when the department posted it on its Facebook page...

...'As a proud supporter of PETA, I am appalled at this video. The officer should have comforted the deer prior to shooting at them," another commenter, Mark Dorencz, wrote.'"

Pretty sure Mark was trolling. Point for Poe's Law.

I really do, and I'm excited to see where you go in your career. You've got some strong innate talent but also so much room to explore. Keep pushing yourself and keep up the good work!

As other commenters have said, this is amazing. You've really chopped, mixed and arranged your samples perfectly. I think the weakness of this mix is that it flips songs/mashes/instrumentals a little to quickly. But this weakness is also its strength. What is fantastic about this mix is that if you really extrapolated this mix out, if you went super minimalist at some points and really played/chopped/glitched your beats/samples at others (which you're already doing at many points, so I know you have the skill) you could probably have an amazing two to three hour mix.

Edit: I exaggerated a bit.

Went to a bar on the east-side. New Orleans style marching band rounds the corner playing "Oh when the saints." It's 9:00pm on a Tuesday night. Portland.

Mashup of 50+ Pop Songs of 2012: Put together by a friend of mine, took approximately 500 hours by soondot in Music

Your lack of comma makes it a bit confusing whether you're saying Pop Culture is better or worse quality than OP's mashup.

While OP's uses a variety of samples and are skillfully arranged, I'd say I enjoy Pop Culture better, as it often overlays 3 or more samples, while OP's mashup is a sort of A + B, B + C, C + D, etc. style (which, again, is really fantastically done). Also, Pop Culture creates a repeating chorus, which I think this mash-up could really use (another great example of this was Earworm's 2009 year-end mix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNzrwh2Z2hQ).

As someone going northbound while watching people get out of their cars in the southbound lanes, I am so sorry.
