I hate the Phillies. Their fans are all bandwagon obnoxious assholes. The team makes the World Series two years in a row, and all of a sudden, fans spawn out of nowhere. Mind you, I’m in Connecticut right now – Yankee/Red Sox rivalry land. Just because a few jokers from south Jersey or PA come to this school, they go nuts. You know what was ignorant and made me rage? Right after the Phillies won the ALCS tonight, people outside started screaming:
“Yeah Phillies! F*ck New York!”
What a dumbshit ignorant comment
- The Phillies just played Los Angeles. NY has nothing to do with anything
- The Yankees haven’t even gotten to the World Series yet – they still need one more win (in three chances).
- This isn’t related to anything, but why are the Mets your bitter rivals? The Mets are JOKERS. It’s not that hard to win a game against the Mets.
- You are still the losing-ist pro team ever, with 10,000+ losses, so die.
- I know a Phillies fan here. She’s really ugly.
So go away and stop yelling outside my window.
First update in a long time. I just woke up because I decided to sleep off a pissed off mood from a Yankee loss and a campus internet outage. I am posting this from a proxy because the dumb shits here at my school network go home after 5PM, and then the internet frequently goes down and no one is here to fix it. Very common occurrence.
So… I do some investigating, and websites do not load. But we do seem to have a live internet connection, since some other protocols worked. So what do I do? Tunnel to a server I administer back in my hometown (thanks KF-Dedicated) and proxy traffic from there to me. Works wonders. So what is wrong with our internet here? I have a feeling that it’s an overloaded traffic-shaper and it’s just dropping all web traffic. Either that or the DNS server died. Some encryption and tunnel action, and bingo, I’m the only moron here with a working connection. Now CNS, get your shit together, you are horrible people. So that’s my rant.
When the first single A Looking In View was released and over 7 minutes long, I didn’t know what to think. I wasn’t a complete fan right away, but it grew on me. Check My Brain was released over the summer and I first heard it while in a car driving through the Bronx. “This is more like it,” I thought to myself – maybe this album has some potential.
And now that it’s released and I’ve been listening to it nonstop, I’d like to point out that the album is amazing. Of course, it can’t be compared to earlier works like Facelift and Dirt, but even with a new lead singer, it does an excellent job capturing AIC’s original essence. DuVall and Cantrell have some haunting vocal harmonies that take you back to the 1990s. Acid Bubble is byfar the most melancholy and is comparibale to the song Dirt from the album Dirt. This is an example of true 1990s grunge being released in 2009! Other songs such as Your Decision and When the Sun Rose Again focus more on acoustic guitar work. It’s a great mix. Usually when I get an album, I only like 2-3 songs, but as I listened through, they are all unique in their own way and I can never skip any of them.
