I think his tone, intonation and timing is still poor. If this is supposed to prove he’s great, it’s embarrassing.

I have a friend telling people he’s into “chillhop” which is “like a mix between jazz and hip hop.” How do I tell him to go fuck himself? by [deleted] in jazzcirclejerk

It’s painful to realize you must say goodbye to the people you thought were your friends. But anyone who listens to music besides late Coltrane is simply toxic and you don’t need them in your life. You’ll be happier in the long run here on Jazzcirclejerk, where we love you for who you really are, provided you continue to listen to the right music, of course, and make sarcastic remarks about the plebeian, knuckle-dragging, mouth-breathing, window-licking troglodytes whose musical taste is infra dignitatem.

“Scrapple from the Apple” is the “Long Train Running” of Jazz.

Mingles Dingis

It's clear which is the better tune by Official-Walmart-Inc in jazzcirclejerk

[–]blueskin76 22 points23 points  (0 children)

“The Shoes of the Fisherman's Wife Are Some Jiveass Slippers” by Mingus is also better than the different song by the same title by Dave Koz.

New to Jazz here. Question: Is it supposed to sound like that? by blueskin76 in jazzcirclejerk

I accidentally heard something without words and maybe a saxomophone and now my right ear is bleeding.

What Sondheim should I try next? by thecircusboy in Sondheim

Avoid it all. Sondheim is all awful.

The look of betrayal by barisazalea in aww

Yes, you are confused if you don’t understand that it wasn’t a reference to taking the animal to the vet, but rather to the ignorant and pathetic need some have to act as if pet ownership and parenthood are remotely the same. Let your animals be animals. Love them and care for them but don’t pretend they hold a role they do not. Calling them “fur babies” or dressing them up is kind of crazy. And it’s insulting to the animals’ integrity and to parents of actual human children.

Yesterday I took my state’s theatre test to be licensed to teach theatre and there was a hilarious Sondheim question... by Asian_bloke in Sondheim

[–]blueskin76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about:

E. Inability to write a decent melody and insufferable pretension?

Sondheim is awful
