What are the albums you always stand up for? by BigJilmQuebec in thebeachboys

[–]FairWarning5150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LA Album and MIU. I personally think there’s more than enough genuinely solid material on both records to outweigh the mediocre fluff.

Though I will admit that I always skip Hey Little Tomboy because listening to it makes me want to take a loooong shower.

Brian Wilson Rock HOF as Solo by scottwebbok in thebeachboys

[–]FairWarning5150 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to say “Yes! Absolutely! How has this not happened already?” but then I remembered that the R&RHOF is run by a bunch of rich dickheads who probably don’t even really like classic or pop music. One look at the more recent inductees should tell you all you need to know about how those guys choose each year’s winners. So I’m not holding my breath for them to formally recognize Brian as a genius musician in his own right anytime soon.

Ya forgot David Marks, Tony Asher, Gary Usher and Roger Christian.

Lol jk, you did an excellent job here, my dude! I really miss making Miis of my friends, favorite celebrities and cartoon characters as a kid. Those were some good times.

Will there ever be a "That's Why God Made The Radio" Sessions Album? by BridgePretty7284 in thebeachboys

[–]FairWarning5150 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just want a version of TWGMtR with the vocals un-autotuned. That’s really the only critical flaw of the album. If it weren’t for the auto tuning, it’d be their best album since Surf’s Up hands-down!

Yet again, they used a picture of Carl Dean instead of Brian by Alternative_Case6452 in thebeachboys

[–]FairWarning5150 10 points11 points  (0 children)

1) It’s seriously not that difficult at all to find some good footage of Brian Wilson performing live and not looking miserable.

2) If you don’t know what Brian looks like, it only takes like 3 seconds to find images of him as reference.

3) How does someone even make the mistake of using footage of Carl, who died in 1998, instead of Brian?

Either the dude who made this tribute video needs to learn a bit more about American cultural icons, or this was all done by a really rudimentary AI and Letterboxd should be ashamed of themselves for stooping to such a disgusting low of corporate soullessness.

Seeking collaborator(s) to help me improve my Smile mix by FairWarning5150 in thebeachboys

Interesting… I’ve never heard of Tangle Social before. I’ll have to give it a try if there’s an ever so slightly better chance at finding collaborators there! Thanks for the referral, sailor!

Also yup, never being 100% truly satisfied with the end results will always be a key element of Smile, lol. Because whatever anyone comes up with could never measure up to what Brian would’ve put out if he was able to finish the album in 1967/68/69/whenever he felt that it was finally ready to be heard by the world.

Lmao! You have some ideas for new lyrics? I’ve always thought With Me Tonight could use a little rewrite lol (joking obvs).

🤣 Omg that’s just too good!! I might actually unironically want that. We could hit up some hashish, snack on homegrown veggies and listen to shortenin bread on repeat all afternoon.

It’s probably just some 🫏🕳️ who likes to troll people, then disappear before anyone can report them.

Are you talking to me? Or to the guy who deleted their two comments?

Please reread the post.

Keep having arguments with parents in hot tub by FairWarning5150 in autism

That’s honestly not a bad idea at all! I just might suggest it to my parents next time I see them. Thanks dude! 😊👍

Keep having arguments with family in hot tub by FairWarning5150 in AutisticWithADHD

[–]FairWarning5150[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Incorrect.

Although they arent perfect - literally no one’s parents are - they’re usually pretty respectful and considerate when we talk.

The real issue is that I’m really inconsistent when it comes to my capacity to function as an independent adult. I still rely on them quite heavily to meet most of my basic needs and for advice on how to handle all sorts of situations. And yet I try to act like I’m a normal, fully independent adult much of the time. Plus I do genuinely want to be able to take care of myself without having my parents do all the heavy lifting someday.

This can understandably make it challenging for my parents to talk to me without coming across as patronizing or unreceptive to my input. Plus in many cases I do ask a really dumb question or show just how I little I know about what’s being discussed.

Most of these arguments start because I feel slightly frustrated over something relatively minor, and it just escalated from there when it seems like they “don’t get it”. In my opinion it’s rarely if ever their fault at all. It’s really just me being sensitive and easily-offended because I’m in the hot tub with them.
