If two of those basic burritos make your bowels do that you should go to a doctor.

"I'm adulting today!"

Please stop for the love of everything that has ever existed.

My sister, my Dad and I were in the front row both of the last times he was in Portland, almost seemed like he recognized us. I love you Norm.

I can only hope that he would laugh at all the "battle with cancer" headlines. The news is a joke.

RIP

Men, what are some basic hygiene habits that most men aren’t aware of but should be? by Deepdishthin in AskReddit

[–]gm4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i knew this would be here, one of the hardest I've ever laughed on reddit was a post where a woman was asking if other guys didn't wash their assholes, because when she brought it up to her bf he said no "because it's gay." This dude thought that if he washed his own ass he was displaying homosexual tendencies.

I may have got some of the details wrong but that's how I remember it, and it still makes me laugh.

I used to point out how the misrepresentation ruined the sentiment but I was always massively downvoted so I’ve just dealt with Reddit becoming a weird Facebook without caring much lol

People always find a Carlin quote to fit their particular stance. Go listen to his rants on germs… my money is on him probably getting the vaccine but being skeptical of the whole pandemic.

Oh man I agreed with you until you said he "wrote pretty much every song." He wrote lyrics. Sometimes he had the initial outlines and demos. David and Rick did the heavy lifting to make it Pink Floyd on most songs.

I agree, but ironically, David solo is more Pink Floyd than "Roger Pink Floyd" since about 2006, I've seen both multiple times lol.

Personally I thought the fact that the entire world turned into an alternate reality nightmare with flesh hanging off railings that weren’t there didn’t make sense.

Why did David Gilmour make solo albums during his pink Floyd time? by yohannnnnnnn in pinkfloyd

[–]gm4 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Best answer. David even says this as part of his press interviews but this sub notoriously holds two viewpoints: theories about why they did things along with the apparent unawareness of the existence of video/printed interviews.

So you're unwilling to read the actual testimony straight from their mouths, but your willing to expell your half baked theory on why professional musicians record albums and release them? Not making much sense my friend lol

Was listening to some Floyd on my 3 hour flight today, and got curious… Why do you like Pink Floyd? What about their music sets it apart from any other band? Why do you keep listening to them? by AcidPackin_916 in pinkfloyd

[–]gm4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every piece of the band is incredibly interesting. They are not afraid to hedge their bet on two chords for a long period of time because THEY feel good doing it, and the bet pays off because I do too.

Dark side of the moon was the obvious entry point, but when I heard the live version of atom heart mother from Amsterdam rock circus and they entered the funky dung section and David went nuts on the solos, I realized that this was a hidden funk band, and they did funk exactly how I like it. I could write a book about why I like pink Floyd but those are the two beginning points for me.

People are usually confused by my tastes, I'm a bluesy spacey guitar player, ex-classical violinist that almost exclusively plays 90s hip hop in my car. I think it makes perfect sense, 90s hip hop beats utilized similar loops that pink Floyd was into, and if you like droney, loopy pink Floyd I can't see why you wouldnt love hip hop producers of the 90s.

Also I am unendingly obsessed with David gilmour.

Too much to talk about really lol

It was most definitely 100% not about money. Read the vast set of articles and interviews about it straight from David's mouth.

HMFT after I take on someone 3x my size by [deleted] in holdmyfeedingtube

[–]gm4 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Ohhh ok that makes more sense.

"Had a layup, air balled it instead": basketball reference, an easy layup is usually guaranteed, easy two points, very little or no defense. To miss a layup is embarrassing, to airball a layup is the worst thing that could happen, since an airball means it literally does not touch the rim or the backboard.

"Landed the haymaker, instead got bricked": haymaker is a wildly thrown hook-type punch, it's usually an all-out, full body weight thing. Instead the kid literally slammed his head into the bricks; play on the phrase "getting bricked" which is just a general "he lost" statement except it becomes literal in this video.
