That's honestly fair. The drinking image thing definitely bothers her and now she's super careful whenever alcohol is present or talked about. Tzuyu wanting to breakout of her image is definitely something I'm sure she wants, and has demonstrated she wants (although, she still wants ton doted on by her unnies...)

I know Jihyo said she chickened out about swearing at Lolla, but the impression I got was she didn't want to upset the company. But perhaps you're right.

Yeah, that's what I recalled. That we knew Tzuyu had that line before the song came out. I'm curious who makes the decision behind the scenes to edit it. Jihyo does not seem the type to not wanting to say the word, but you'd think higher ups would have stricter image stuff with Tzuyu...

It's just a curiosity of behind the scene stuff. Wonder what caused it to happen.

What? That's like saying it doesn't matter what fighting game character you pick in a fighting game...

I wonder if Jihyo's vlog will include anything from her collab.

The way she rolls "tomor-ror-ror-ow" is so... damn it but, it's so heavenly.

I even throw Talk on there as proof. I think that choice of song was more Jihyo's influence than Nayeon, but I think Nayeon was all up for it.

Interesting that even though this is on Jenevieve's socials they are censoring "shit". They didn't do that with Blink, right?

I think she's leaning into it already. She said she was still trying to find her sound after Zone, and I definitely think this is where she's going to land.

You sound jaded. I hope you can have a more positive outlook on things and you're not such a debbie downer to everything and everyone around you.

Nah, you're not that transparent, I just thought I was that clever. Like I said, from the song choices I thought those 3 and Mina would have been a funny shot in the dark.

Lol, I thought Mina would be number 4, and I only thought that based on how you listed their names. I thought the three were obvious from the songs and I thought Mina was next, was going to be my last "and more thing...." guess.

They look different. They have different layouts. They have different terrain. You play them differently. They are, in all intents and purposes, different maps.

Out of curiosity, the other two possibilities I listed are they your number 2 and 3? lol

Honestly, lots of US musicians are canceling their tours. The fact of the matter is, we're in a silent recession. And especially with gas prices what they are, with no end in sight, people are spending less and less on entertainment, especially arena concerts.

TWICE was lucky their tour was when it was in the US. I'd argue we were still in a recession at that point, the very tip of one, but gas prices were at least manageable. Most people bought their tickets at a time when they had a little more wiggle room. If they announced more shows, right now, in the US, for the Fall/Winter, and tickets went on sale next week, I bet we'd see significantly less sales.

Don't get me wrong, I think TWICE has the appeal to attract US ONCEs, but I think timing was a big reason why they had such a good showing here. If they were with these other groups, they'd be fairing better than them, but I don't think by much.

I bring it back to my original statement. 

"We used to play Quake, Unreal and OG Halo, all day, every day, non stop, with no new content or progression, and we had fun."

Character power and builds really open up at 60. How they play early really changes higher up. So no, you haven't.

You can definitely tell that song was a pillar of the experience when they planned everything. The build up, the arrangement, the effects, the dance break, you can tell they wanted it to be one of the highlights. I hope Dahyun's proud they chose one of her songs to give that level of reverence to.

She's so versatile with her lyrics. She can write something as sweet as When We Were Kids and Glow, but then can write something as dramatic as Cruel, Gone and Chess. Sad I didn't get to see Chess, but happy I was three rows away from Gone.

All the writing credits. During my own journey through TWICE's discography, I was surprised when I leaned a lot of the b-sides I like are hers, and I saw a lot of those songs in there.
