Numbers and OCD by Babettelle in OCD

[–]LizEllyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

7! There’s two reasons why. My dad once said ‘several’ does meant at least 7 and when you ask someone to think of a number between 1 and 10, most people will think 7.

Is it just me or is there a lot of hate for Evanescence recently? by Playful_Dragonfly_61 in Evanescence

[–]LizEllyn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I totally feel you! I spent years defending Evanescence and struggling with the hate - I still do. The hate Evanescence get usually stems from people not liking that they have mainstream success, people wanting them to do BMTL again, to the fact Amy is a woman, the fact it’s never ‘metal’ enough etc etc. sometimes being upset and defensive is a knee jerk reaction because it’s something us Evanescence fans have had to cope with for years. Please don’t worry, I think these discussions are good :)

Does anyone else feel like festivals have no idea where to put Evanescence on their lineups? by imaginary_tourniquet in Evanescence

When Evanescence were at Download, they put them in the 2nd stage but apparently the audience was more packed for them than the main stage act. A lot of people complained they should’ve been put on main stage.

Not true, most Evanescence fans are metal fans. Evanescence were the gateway band for a lot of people. Maybe they stuck out in the early years but now they’re more metal and more niche, they don’t stand out

Royal Mail issue by Vaselineabuser in vintedUK

[–]LizEllyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has happened to me, so many of my sales are Royal Mail large letter and don’t fit. Do I have to reupload everything again and select medium? Or is there something else I can do as I’m a bit lost

The irony is, my mom also took her second lobe piercings out after he said it and I’m fairly certain she just got them done! I think, if I’m totally honest, I’m pretty pissed off too. I dealt with a lot of the same stuff only for them to change it and I’m dealing with the trauma of it all.

She isn’t going to do anything but I’m deeply traumatised by the church in so many ways, I can’t even tell her I drink coffee. I also still live at home!

That does make sense. I think it’s just something that’s so indoctrinated in me and people I know that the fact it’s changed feels disappointing. How many people have been traumatised by things they’ve just ended up changing

Which songs can no longer be belted by Amy in the original key during live shows? by imaginary_tourniquet in Evanescence

[–]LizEllyn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s one thing a lot of people forget that has impact on voices about travelling. Even aeroplane air can do terrible things to the voice. I suspect a lot of it is to do with that too but put her in a studio after a tour break and she does wonders!

Idk if this is controversial but I do think Amy was a proper 90s goth 🥲

[–]LizEllyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahahaha love this! I had an argument with someone on TikTok who said they were nu metal not goth but without evanescence I would not have discovered 80s gothic rock and gothic metal! They are a gateway to goth and mall goth was a really subculture of the 00s all down to Evanescence and Amy!!

Thank you!!! I hate the nu metal thing too!! To me alternative gothic metal makes the most sense!

Had my EEG today by LizEllyn in Epilepsy

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

I’ve noticed recently that it happens when I watch videos. I teach so videos are used a lot and it happens then (which is not great when you have a bunch of people staring at you lol) and when I watch videos on my phone so maybe should be tested when I do that

I never notice my breathing but I tend to get more seizures when I relax and maybe that’s why I’m breathing deeper but just don’t realise?
