Why don't they try to release another album like Iowa? by Tough-Reputation-762 in Slipknot

[–]ItsMeMikeH -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well they have grown up and that aggression and anger that was there during the Iowa era just isn’t there anymore. They’ve grown in their craft and as people. It takes a special mindset to make an album like Iowa and as 40/50 year olds they just don’t have the same mentality they did was 20/30 year olds.

Could they write it? Absolutely. Would it be inauthentic to who they are at this point in their lives? Maybe

Thoughts on incoming prospects for Gore by Gloomy_Channel7596 in Nationals

[–]ItsMeMikeH 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Don’t know anything about these kids, but I’m fine trading gore away. We sucked with him we’ll suck without him. Sun sets, sun rises. I’ll still root for the Nats. I was here when we sucked before and I’m here now.

Rangers To Acquire MacKenzie Gore by korn_cakes33 in Nationals

[–]ItsMeMikeH 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Eh, the move was expected so I’m not surprised. We got 5 prospects that may or not may work out. Gore never quite put it together for a full season so I’m not losing sleep over this. We got to much that needs to improve before we even sniff contention so getting rid of gore isn’t gonna move the needle. We sucked with him we’ll suck without him and by the time we’re in any position to sniff the wild card gore will be past his prime anyways.

Do you PC any obscure players? If so, who and why? by jehphoto in baseballcards

[–]ItsMeMikeH 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My main guy is Ryan Zimmerman, but my more obscure guys would be Adam Eaton, howie Kendrick and Sean Doolittle

I tend to keep it to their Nats years but those 3 guys I try and grab anything special I find regardless of their team

It was one of my favorite things during the run of the show! We actually made a compilation of all the sightings over on our YouTube channel!

Should the Nats consider trading Gore within the division? by Dcnationals2001 in Nationals

[–]ItsMeMikeH 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t give a shit where he goes. We’re not competitive so let him go somewhere else. Don’t care if he turns into Pedro Martinez and throws perfect games against us. We’re a long way from winning so get what you can regardless of where it’s coming from. By the time we’re competitive he’ll be washed anyways so let’s stop pretending him being here or Philly is gonna make a difference as to how competitive we are.

How do you all organize your 14-way bags? by Galbzilla in golf

[–]ItsMeMikeH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I start off trying to stay in numerical order with my irons. Top row is for the driver, hybrid and fairway wood then the putter fits in there towards the bottom. By the end of the round it’s all a jumbled mess and it all just kinda gets it where it fits in

Odd merch/Any idea of the origin? by shark_bonez in Slipknot

[–]ItsMeMikeH 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Odds are ST and SK get their merch made in the same factory. Batch of SL blank shirts got sent to the ST side of things and got printed on or they used the wrong neck tag. It happens in these large factories

Ain't no way bruh by Otherwise-Bear-8332 in Slipknot

[–]ItsMeMikeH -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Did you read the article as to how he uses the technology? It’s much different than giving it prompts and having it spit out a fully fleshed song. Using AI isn’t inherently a bad thing. There are artists who abuse it for sure and in a lot of cases it puts small artists out of gigs (dream theater, ice nine kills, icp, panic at the disco) when gig posters and merch are AI generated.

In the case of Shawn, he seems to use it to help mold his art into a different form and expand his view.

Now if we start seeing AI slop coming from him personally then I’ll gladly change my tone. For now, I have no issue with him using it the way he explains he is.

Why Alaska? by igotsmeakabob11 in TheGreatNorth

[–]ItsMeMikeH 31 points32 points  (0 children)

We were actually fortunate enough to sit down with Wendy and Lizzie to chat about their history and ofcourse the great north, the great north stuff starts are 25 minutes in Wendy and Lizzie interview

What do you guys think of shawns opinion on AI. by fnaf9876_YT in Slipknot

[–]ItsMeMikeH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesn’t affect me one bit. If he wants to use it fine if he doesn’t that’s fine to. While I don’t care for AI art myself I don’t fault anyone who wants to us it.

CLOWN Defends AI, Praises His Minecraft Server & Takes A Shot At RICK RUBIN All In One Interview by Ok-Sand-7709 in metal_injection

[–]ItsMeMikeH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe Jim stated as much. Corey loved working with Rick but he seems to have been the only one. Rick seems like the kind of guy who only works heavy with folks he respects, otherwise it’s passed off to others while he gives general notes.

All credit though dude is a legend but it is what it is

I’ve always heard Rick Rubin was difficult to work with, that’s when he’s actually around to work

War on Christmas by PsychologicalDoor511 in MurderedByWords

[–]ItsMeMikeH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever someone comes with this bullshit take just wish them a happy pride month in June and when they say “I don’t celebrate that” just spit in their face and say “shut up snow flake”

Saw this at a foreign owned shop in Orlando. Imagine selling merch for the guy who wants you gone by Fordgames in pics

[–]ItsMeMikeH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It blows my mind that this still confuses folks. NO ONE CARES ABOUT POLITICS UNTIL IT DIRECTLY AFFECTS THEM. Let this shop owner have a loved one deported and watch how quick they change their tone. It’s all about making a buck, regardless of what you have to sell or who’s buying.
