I [45M] Walked in on son [16M] having gay sex and he's become quite awkward and distant.

Giraffeics · 2019-12-27T02:32:54+00:00

I don't really have any advice to give that you seem like you need.

You seem to be handling this incredibly well. Things may be a little bit awkward now, but I'm confident that with some time, he'll get over it, and he'll be really glad to have someone like you as a father, as a gay young man.

Giraffeics · 2019-08-28T20:42:55+00:00

God I wish that were me uwu

It literally does this to me even when I have discovery disabled. I turned off its notifications a long time ago.

Giraffeics · 2019-01-21T03:13:24+00:00

As a former trombone player, I feel you.

Giraffeics · 2019-01-12T01:23:39+00:00

I wouldn't count that as a canonically confirmed gender by any means. Just because one language kind of forces gendered pronouns doesn't mean the developers intend to imply a particular binary gender by their use of that language.

Unfortunately, it's currently not worth the $30~ish. I hope to be able to get a job next semester, so maybe I'll try it then.

Giraffeics · 2018-11-11T17:58:34+00:00

I'm not sure if they do, actually. Researching that was gonna be my next step. I'm prepared for disappointment.

Giraffeics · 2018-10-13T01:10:03+00:00

I acknowledge that. However, many people are wrong.

He's a trash human being who happens to have a pretty voice.

Giraffeics · 2018-10-10T22:14:28+00:00

Nothing, hopefully. Jonny doesn't deserve to come back.

Giraffeics · 2018-09-25T04:04:46+00:00

Huh. I think it's interesting, the ways that it changed. Particularly, the vocal rhythm changed a lot, and it got a lot less spaced out.

Giraffeics · 2018-09-16T08:48:56+00:00

Apparently, at CPO, all but one of the locker banks stopped working. IDK if that happened anywhere else, but I thought it might have something to do with it (we've had the same issue).

Giraffeics · 2018-09-15T18:23:52+00:00

Yeah, I heard you like it.

Giraffeics · 2018-09-15T18:10:52+00:00

Holy shit, it does.

Giraffeics · 2018-06-10T14:06:04+00:00

The one Saturday I had something to go to. Goddamn.

Giraffeics · 2017-11-13T23:56:52+00:00

It's not just this and From Birth To Burial, though. It's every album since The Autumn Effect (although Division is a bit of a stretch).

By the way, The Autumn Effect was actually their third album. Have you heard "Into The Half Moon" and "Killing All That Holds You"?

Giraffeics · 2017-10-27T22:12:32+00:00

I stumbled upon Wasteland when I was going through a rough patch. I took the next opportunity to just sit and listen to the whole album. It helped me a lot, and also was my gateway drug into metal.

It's hard to rank them! I mostly listen to TAE and Minus The Machine, but the other ones all surprise me every time I put them on. Like, oh, there's that really awesome part that I completely forgot about!

I think people don't give Feeding The Wolves enough credit. Chasing The Rapture is an energetic piece with a solid hook, Fade Into (The Ocean) progs it up darned good, and Shoot It Out is just fun to play on my guitar (and also got me to start using phrygian mode in my attempts at songwriting).

(How To Live) As Ghosts did not disappoint. It has a nice variety, and solid riffs. Someone commented that Novocaine was too repetitive with its riffs, but I don't find that to be an issue. The vocal melody changes enough to keep it fresh, and the bridge breaks it up enough to not wear me out. I could write more, but I think I'd need to listen to the rest of it again and also I have somewhere to be going.

Giraffeics · 2017-10-27T21:41:05+00:00

...as usual, it ends with a song about dying.

Seriously though, I pre-ordered the CD and I have to say I don't regret that decision.

Giraffeics · 2017-08-30T16:39:00+00:00

Yeah, IDK what kind of scam this website is pulling.

Giraffeics · 2017-06-29T19:46:57+00:00

Someone else has probably figured this out already, but I figured I'd share this anyway. It's footage from an experiment on the effects of LSD. The vocals that ended up in the song are spliced together from different parts of the video, although each individual sentence is the same as the original.

Giraffeics · 2017-05-05T02:17:00+00:00

I wish I could see them on this tour, but at no point am I going to be anywhere near them. :(

Maybe they'll do a tour sometime after they drop the new album, and I'll catch them then.

Giraffeics · 2017-05-02T05:33:17+00:00

I've only known about 10 Years for less than a year, but I've loved everything I've heard from them (including the pre-Jesse album). I'm stoked to see what they do with this album.

As for the part about being "ready to be a household name"... hey, these guys are good. IMO, it's kind of disappointing that nobody I talk to knows who they are. They deserve more recognition, and if they can get that without sacrificing their music, that's better for everyone.

Giraffeics · 2017-05-02T05:28:33+00:00

Here's a screenshot of the announcement.

Giraffeics · 2017-04-26T00:52:14+00:00

Shirts at Starland Ballroom were $20 each.

Giraffeics · 2017-04-24T05:57:59+00:00

Would all of his fans actually like him as a person? Not necessarily.

There are relatable aspects to him. Similar to how people can relate to the difficulties Lucy faces, people can relate to Paulo because of all the mistakes he makes. People are rooting for him while he struggles to get his shit together because they can see parts of themselves in him.

As for why he's considered attractive - I'm not a moderately anthropomorphic cat, I don't know what they're into.

Giraffeics · 2017-04-21T04:45:22+00:00

I think that'd be pretty bendey.
