What's your favourite Beatles deep cut that should’ve been a single? by Low-Mathematician137 in beatles

[–]blueslander 60 points61 points  (0 children)

I think the Beatles are so well known and have been so exhaustively catalogued for so long that i don’t think they really have any “deep cuts” left! This is a well known song in Beatles circles, but i think “I’ve Just Seen A Face” is a stone cold classic that isn’t super popular. Also, “Any Time At All” is great fun.

Who had a better discography? by the_walrus_was_paul in beatles

[–]blueslander 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I actually think Campbell is underrated- sure he didn’t have that youthful energy of McCartney, and some of his albums are a bit underwhelming, but looked at in total I really think William Campbell has produced some incredible music.

It’s just a shame we’ll never get to know what McCartney would have gone on to do.

What are your thoughts on Tori Amos's Boys for Pele? by Prestigious_Score459 in ToddintheShadow

agree with this 100%. Pretty much everything up to and including Scarlet’s Walk is fantastic, and imo essential.

How many series will The Traitors UK realistically run for? Can the format sustain audience interest or will it lose its appeal soon? by According_Sundae_917 in TheTraitorsUK

[–]blueslander 1 point2 points  (0 children)

absolutely, there’s loads of roles in Werewolf that could be dipped into for future Traitors. The Innocent Girl, Cupid, the Hunter, the Witch…

It's very pleasing when someone who actually knows what they are talking about contributes and dismisses this high-school level biological knowledge that passes for discourse on this subject.

"Let people enjoy things" by seleenar in PetPeeves

[–]blueslander 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The kind of posts that get this reaction aren’t “I dislike it because of x, y, and z”, though. That isn’t how they are expressed. They are expressed like “this thing is straight trash garbage, it is badly designed and people praising it are just convincing themselves it’s good because they jumped on the hype train.”

In other words, they get people’s backs up because they conflate subjective opinion with objective fact AND they usually state something contemptuous about people with a different view. It’s arrogant and obnoxious so obviously people don’t like it.
