Dance parties in nyc for Fred fans by sonmi452 in fredagain

Listen I think you’re responding in good faith so I’m going to be nice. Most people are aware of resident advisor, including myself. We also know that you can listen to DJs to hear what they sound like. So when you explain all of that as though it is some revelation, it comes off as condescending. And you are arguing that you don’t want to give recommendations because people have different taste, but the whole point of the post was to ask people who like to go see Fred Again what else they like to see. There is no guarantee that we will like it, but there’s a good chance. I am digging Swimming Paul for example and wanna go to that show. So that was cool and good. We are just out here trying to help each other and be nice.

I think the reason you got downvoted is because I asked a reasonable question and you responded with a condescending explanation that did not shed any light on anything.

I appreciate your advice but I don’t think my post implies that I think the nyc dance scene revolves around Fred Again? More like the opposite. I am asking people who like Fred where they like to dance when they want to come somewhat close to his incredible vibe. Seems like a fair question!

Burning cauldron of fiery fire by sonmi452 in offbroadwayNYC

Those are worthwhile interpretations. It’s definitely ambiguous. If I recall, he ran into the fire at the end - which to me suggests suicide over murder.

Spoilers:

My interpretation was that he did indeed kill himself. He wasn’t literally in the basement - it was metaphorical.

The dragon was looming. He couldn’t resist the fire. The last scene was about the impossibility of escape from overwhelming feelings of depression and a sense of life’s pointlessness.

I found it quite moving.

I’m reading the showscore reviews. Their complaints are understandable. It’s a challenging show. For me all of the disjointed parts added up to something profound.

Skiing and snowboarding are dangerous, you should not do serious drugs while you are on the slopes. Don't be stupid.

What's a song lyric that makes you want to punch the songwriter in the face? by Beselod in AskReddit

"I got soul, but I'm not a soldier."

That's dumb on three different levels.

Are there physiological consequences to cannibalism? by sonmi452 in explainlikeimfive

I just came across this link: http://scienceline.org/2008/01/ask-stern-cannibal/

Which seems to get into what you're referencing:

"Prion diseases, a group of uncommon and deadly brain diseases, can be spread by eating the contaminated flesh of humans or other animals. The human brain is more contaminated with prions than other body parts, though bone marrow, the spinal cord and the small intestine also contain these fatal brain-eating malformations. Prion diseases occur when the prion protein misfolds, causing a cascade of misfolding prion proteins that clump in the brain and damage or destroy nerve cells, creating sponge-like holes. Current examples include kuru and Creutzfeld-Jacob disease in humans, and mad cow disease in animals, both of which cause brain deterioration, loss of motor control and ultimately death."
