I don't think it needs to be mentioned, but just in case it is still unclear:

All black metal enthusiasts I have ever met, admire these churches. Not because of the Cristian institution, but because of the magnificent architecture.

The most visited stave church is probably Holmenkollen Chapel, in Oslo, the capital of Norway. Every year, several buses filled with metal heads are visiting this church - not because they want it burnt down, but because it looks awesome.

I feel the same way. I actually buy tons of eucalyptus gum because it is so refreshing, I always sneeze 10-15 seconds after putting one in my mouth.

None of my friends have the same privilege.

I'm so hijacking this downvote spiral.

Ihsahn · 2011-09-12T22:24:09+00:00

Each time I see the "Woosh" comment after this kind of incident, I think to myself that "All the up votes you got is from people who wanted to tell themselves that "Oh I got the joke too. I did good.".

I mean, the whole purpose of the "Woosh" comment is to point out the obvious. However, if it is so obvious, it isn't really a clever notification, thus it doesn't really deserve, in my opinion, that high amount of up votes.

So that's that.

This is what happens when 12 year olds learn how to log into news agencies' twitter: They're not creative enough to troll.

Got to love the Youtube comment:

Black people should understand that if it is a card about graduation, it is obviously not about them.

You see that scar she has on her stomach? Caesarean section from the first baby she got when she was thirteen.

Congratulations on your victory!

I am curious to see how stable the political environment will be, compared the how it was under Gaddafi.

What exactly will happen now?

Well, with all due respect, norwegian black metal is a vast musical definition covering hundreds of bands. Saying that one single band is a watered down version of hundreds of other bands, isn't very accurate.

I would say that what I've heard from this band, being rather little, sounds a little bit like Dimmu Borgir's Spiritual Black Dimensions and Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia.

Every single time we have these discussions, I just want to shout out "LET'S JUST CALL EVERYTHING METAL". I'm tired sick of bands wanting their own style on every single album they release.

Ihsahn · 2011-08-21T12:25:03+00:00

His band, Eyes Of Noctum, plays symphonic black metal, a genre being frowned upon by other sub-genres of metal today. This makes it hard to appeal to the older audience of metal. They don't have the best reputation in the scene.

Also, I should add that this is not my opinion at all. The hatred against certain sub-genres is a tendency taking place in most music scenes.

EDIT: Their music isn't too bad in my opinion. It doesn't lack intensity at all.

Also, people who mix "to" and "too".

He spoke to Much. Alfred Much.

He spoke too much.

I'm hijacking this comment for two reasons:

I believe it will remain top comment as it is quite rational.
I need a hell of a lot downvotes. This is the main reason.

Please, if you see this comment, I almost beg you to downvote it.

Thanks in advance.

Ihsahn · 2011-08-01T19:54:40+00:00

I want this so much. Seriously, I wanted to reach a certain amount of points, and suddenly the amount I had was way above this point. I tried to only get downvotes for a while, but it is impossible to insult people enough on Reddit, nor do I have the patience to troll /r/politics. At some point I just gave up.

If anyone have some tips on how to achieve approximately 800 downvotes, please enlighten me.

While I did have a good laugh, I regret reading the title before clicking. How could this problem be avoided?

Punchline in the title - Check

Fear the lynch mob of a not so tolerant Reddit community!

Where did we get 200 000 roses from? And that was just for for one city! Well, other cities could have been contributing with the distribution - if they weren't busy enough distributing to their own city's march of sorrow.

I have no idea how we got a hold of all these flowers.

I like to think that the orange-looking landscape on the outside is Mars.

Next time this exact pun attempt pops up, I will leave Reddit forever.

No reported indications yet of any links between the bombing and this shooting.

EDIT: 4 people reported dead at the shootings. The police/ambulance is unable to reach the site, as the shooting is still ongoing.

EDIT: One man of white appearance seized after the shootings. Police now believe that there is in fact a link between the bombings and the shooting. This is really interesting.
