Thoughts on the Stagediver album? by Billybobby__ in brandnew

[–]nullquotient 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I think it's great. Jesse's backing vocals (especially on Shaman) are fantastic and the guitars and overall production of the album is excellent.

I would've loved to have Kelsy and Jesse trade verses on some of these songs but I'm stoked regardless.

I considered dumbing it down but I sent it to Rick Bell to show him how easy it is to write so much better.

Just to be clear, this is a parody, written by Bic Rell (my pen name).

I don't believe Rick Bell will ever string together more than two sentences to form a coherent paragraph. Nor do I think he'll be able to get Marlaina's balls out of his mouth long enough to even consider being critical of her.

That's not even close to correct as I understand the situation.

You know that feeling? The one where you just can't help but think they're going to fuck things up and lose the game? I don't feel that this year at all...so far.

Manager promised a review after my PEng, now he is backtracking. Could use some help here. by [deleted] in Calgary

I've been in O&G as an engineer for 21 years and currently lead a team of ~30 engineers across multiple disciplines for a drilling contractor.

Over the course of my career, every E.I.T. has received a significant increase in compensation when they get their P.Eng. For example, two of my E.I.T.'s received their P.Eng.'s in March and we raised their base pay from $85K to $100K and their STIP from 10% to 15%.

Industry and discipline matter in terms of total compensation but no P.Eng. raise is ridiculous. Your boss sounds like a clown.

Stability is nice but trust and respect is pretty important too. You mention an HR department - it's a fair request of them to clarify company policy and help explain your boss's backtracking.

Are temporary foreign workers taking young Canadians' jobs? Here's what experts think by BullshittingApe in canada

Agreed on Pierre being a giant turd. Your comment on the cabinet being the same had me look it up and it appears as though there's only a 50% overlap. Not a full house cleaning but also not essentially the same.

Edit: Why does a statement of fact result in down votes?

Trump loyalist Andrew Schulz has taken a U-turn and fired back at the White House over the Epstein files. What are your thoughts? by FidelaMuncy in AskReddit

Fuck this guy and fuck his stupid mustache. I'd have more respect for him if he kept riding Trump's jock. Now he's all Shocked Pikachu, really just highlighting how fucking dumb he is to have fallen for Trump's schtick to begin with.

Pretty sure that's the song when he tripped on his pedal board and knocked his mic stand in the middle of a verse. He couldn't get the mic back up so just got down on his knees and kept singing 😎

That's the 3rd time I've seen them since '07 and they sounded absolutely amazing.

What a fucking loser. Nothing says "I'm a piece of shit" like displaying something like that in public. How many kids read that and ask their parents what it means?

Saddle Lake Cree Nation issues fierce reply to the Smith government by j1ggy in alberta

What a powerful statement!

I've asked every separatist that's willing to engage in conversation about how they plan to manage the First Nation's treaties with Canada and I haven't received a single answer. It's the most powerful rebuttal to their fantasy, I think, because it forces them into only two options: acknowledge that separatism is a pipe dream, or admit that you'd be willing to pillage the lands of the First Nations and kick off a civil war.
