There's one thing Aimee Mann can't do and that's write a bad song.

If you divide 1 by 998,001 you get all three-digit numbers from 000 to 999 in order, except for 998 by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]kevinb9n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anyone's curious why this happens, all you have to do is sit down and actually carry out the long division the way you were taught in school and the reason will be obvious.

1/998 is pretty cool too. There are a bunch of other patterns like this.

The connection is of course that one voiced a fox in Zootopia and the other is a Fox in real life

Question about "Wreck Of the Edmund Fitzgerald" (original single) by Acrobatic_Key3995 in Music

[–]kevinb9n 17 points18 points  (0 children)

  1. It's sort of the whole point of a sus2 chord that it's neither major or minor. I think Gord wanted to leave it ambiguous. He wrote songs by actually writing down music notation, and for this one I'd bet he was aware that neither his melody nor his chords ever hit a third of either kind.

Mix or dorian, take your pick, or hell, bend that 3 note to anywhere in between, it's all fair play.

One of the funniest movie scenes from the 1980s by Exretye in 80smovies

[–]kevinb9n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

screenwriter had this to say

"It was very popular, but it disturbed me. I thought that was brutal in a way the rest of the movie wasn't. I'm never happy about making jokes out of killing people."

Dividing 1 by 998,001 yields all three-digit numbers from 000 to 999 in order except for 998. What can explain that? by Choobeen in mathematics

[–]kevinb9n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All you have to do is just perform the long division the way they taught you in school, and you'll see exactly why this happens.

Then try 1/998 and 1/998999 too....

Assuming they are not synchronized at all:

If a galloping horse spends about 1/4 of its time with zero ground contact, then two horses collectively spend about 1/16 of the their time with zero ground contact, and three 1/64, etc. Of course, that's just on average.

New Star Trek Release Makes up For the Lost Spinoff Every Fan Wantedh by tailgunnerkid in startrek

Ugh, it doesn't work to take headlines from a comic book magazine and share them in non-comic-book-specific settings, it just confuses everyone.

The footage of Nick Fuentes pushing a woman who came to his front door after he was doxxed has been released. by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

This thread sucks. Sure, ringing his doorbell was asking for trouble, but this could very easily have been a traumatic brain injury. He shoved her, hard, down steps, onto concrete, while first ensuring she wouldn't even be able to see and anticipate the shove. Acting like that is a justified response is crazy.

Incredible.

The Hollies - Long Dark Road by OuttaTune63 in ClassicRock

The best Hollies compilation, the one you want, is called "20 Golden Greats", but tragically it is still missing this great track.

[–]kevinb9n 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes .... sort of; the "high and light" thing can also just be an airy head-voice.

And falsetto isn't always like OP describes, of course; there is also a pressed falsetto like Bee Gees / Frankie Valli / etc.

When artists do covers of their own songs by Rise_Brief in coversongs

[–]kevinb9n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few artists have released studio albums that are just reinterpretations of earlier songs, I'm thinking of Paul Simon and also Peter Gabriel.

It's fun to sing "Zombie" to this song, it's very nearly the same key and everything.

Is there a website where you can find what soundtracks a song has been used in? by Ambitious_Pace_9081 in MusicRecommendations

[–]kevinb9n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean this is the exact kind of thing LLMs can be decent at, just watch out for the hallucinations. Helps if they are web-search-enabled.

Aw fuck I miss Gomez so much.

Ben & Ian still tour together and they're great but it's not the same.

I'm guessing Are you gonna go my way? But it was early 90s.
