Sometimes I'm negative because it's fun. Its infinitely more enjoyable to make a (seemingly) witty comment about an album or song I don't like than just shut up and not say anything. That said, people should take it for what it is. Its just my attempt at humor. When I see someone else joking negatively about something I like I just laugh and move on. The general feeling I get is that we need to lighten up and stop taking other peoples' (and our) opinions so seriously, myself included.

Some people will never get this.

Oh no...I "get it". I may be new to these forums...but I have seen your type of "humor" before. You two are the type that get enjoyment out of putting stuff down. Everything "sucks" or is "lame". I went to school with people like you. Your idea of "fun" is putting other people and ideas down. What I don't get, is why you claim to be a rush fan, but all you have to say is how much they suck...why waste the energy? Well I know why...because to you it is fun. This isn't a politcal debate, we aren't solving the worlds problems...we are all supposed to be here because we love Rush

Two posts in, and you've already got me all figured out. Well done

Wasn't that difficult

Some people just don't know how to have fun. biggrin.gif

No, some (in fact, most people I know) don't think being negative is fun.

Nobody is negative just for the sake of being negative. That would be irrational. What is fun is conflict. Conflict is exciting. It is entertaining. Can you imagine a movie with two hours of characters just hugging or sh*t like that? Do you know how boring that would be? Whether you like it or not, you probably enjoy conflict too. It is the spice of life.

"Nobody is negative just for the sake of being negative"? But earlier you said, "Sometimes I'm negative because it's fun." confused13.gif

Don't worry, I'm not being negative. I'm giving you more spice in your life. pokey.gif

The results are fun.

I don't know man. You mainly seem to say contradictory things. And it doesn't even seem like you realize it. I can imagine you posting these...

 

Your 1st post: Tom Sawyer needs to be dropped from their setlist. It's good but not that good. I've heard enough of it and I'm sure a lot of other fans have too.

Your 2nd post: Tom Sawyer is such a great song and a worthy staple to their live gigs. I can't wait to hear it on the next tour.

Your 3rd post: I think you missed my point about what I was saying about Tom Sawyer.

 

Catch the drift.

Not really.

How old are you?..

It's the reality of the internet that 99.99% percent of what people post here they would never in a million years have the nerve to say it in the person's presence.

 

If you adopt the rule "Would I really be able to say this to someone's face?" truthfully, internet forums would be a much nicer place.

 

I don't get the desire of some to come to sites like this for no other reason than to spew negativity. A (far) cry for attention perhaps?

It's a process.

 

I give out my age

People think "wow he's young! He must be stupid!"

My legitimate points get lost in the bias fest

 

So no, I do not give out my age.

Sorry I didn't make it more clear. Being negative in a witty way is fun. Just being negative for no reason is not fun.

I'll say Rush have been shit for 25 years to anybody's face, including the band. Mosbach thought he could stop me spewing my negativety and gave up.

If I really did meet up with Peart or the band I'd be the model of courtesy, cos I'm English and nobody does good manners like English "Old-Rush" fans...

The general feeling I get is that we need to lighten up and stop taking other peoples' (and our) opinions so seriously, myself included.

Some people will never get this.

Oh no...I "get it". I may be new to these forums...but I have seen your type of "humor" before. You two are the type that get enjoyment out of putting stuff down. Everything "sucks" or is "lame". I went to school with people like you. Your idea of "fun" is putting other people and ideas down. What I don't get, is why you claim to be a rush fan, but all you have to say is how much they suck...why waste the energy? Well I know why...because to you it is fun. This isn't a politcal debate, we aren't solving the worlds problems...we are all supposed to be here because we love Rush

Two posts in, and you've already got me all figured out. Well done

Wasn't that difficult

Some people just don't know how to have fun. biggrin.gif

No, some (in fact, most people I know) don't think being negative is fun.

Nobody is negative just for the sake of being negative. That would be irrational. What is fun is conflict. Conflict is exciting. It is entertaining. Can you imagine a movie with two hours of characters just hugging or sh*t like that? Do you know how boring that would be? Whether you like it or not, you probably enjoy conflict too. It is the spice of life.

"Nobody is negative just for the sake of being negative"? But earlier you said, "Sometimes I'm negative because it's fun." confused13.gif

Don't worry, I'm not being negative. I'm giving you more spice in your life. pokey.gif

The results are fun.

I don't know man. You mainly seem to say contradictory things. And it doesn't even seem like you realize it. I can imagine you posting these...

 

Your 1st post: Tom Sawyer needs to be dropped from their setlist. It's good but not that good. I've heard enough of it and I'm sure a lot of other fans have too.

Your 2nd post: Tom Sawyer is such a great song and a worthy staple to their live gigs. I can't wait to hear it on the next tour.

Your 3rd post: I think you missed my point about what I was saying about Tom Sawyer.

 

Catch the drift.

Sorry I didn't make it more clear. Being negative in a witty way is fun. Just being negative for no reason is not fun.

Wake me up next time one of your negative comments is witty

I very much enjoy recent Rush, the sonics of Vapor Trails not withstanding. As you say, folks are entitled to not enjoy what the band's done recently, as am I to say I don't envy being that person. That's different from loving everything the band does. If CA is shite, then be prepared for me to say just that. But I hate (and resent, more importantly) when it's perceived that anyone who claims to like the new stuff will like JUST ANY PIECE OF MATERIAL they put out there because it's Rush, etc. The whole sheep argument.

Well just because you're constipated doesn't mean I'm the one that's full of shit.

There's always a few people making the sheep argument that someone would love a Rush album if they ever put one out, but I think for the most part people are mature enough to know that people just like different things.

 

I listen to Caravan and the song just sounds awful to me, Ive never liked a single thing about it, but I know well enough that the next guy/girl may think it's the best song they ever wrote, which obviously is totally fine.

 

I'm sure I like a lot of stuff many here would hate. I'm a big rap fan. Not of ghetto rap, but smart rap. There's a lot of intelligent poetic rap artists out there, but I'll bet many people here think it's talentless crap which I really disagree with.

Re; negativity... yes. There is too much. It comes from the same people and it is childish in the extreme. RUSH have grown and matured and, yes, aged. I know that really pisses some people off because it reminds them that *they* have also aged. Don't take it out on the band - they can't change physics (at least not yet).

I think it's more childish to not be able to take others' opinions for what they are: opinions.

It's the reality of the internet that 99.99% percent of what people post here they would never in a million years have the nerve to say it in the person's presence.

If you adopt the rule "Would I really be able to say this to someone's face?" truthfully, internet forums would be a much nicer place.

I don't get the desire of some to come to sites like this for no other reason than to spew negativity. A (far) cry for attention perhaps?

I'll say Rush have been shit for 25 years to anybody's face, including the band. Mosbach thought he could stop me spewing my negativety and gave up.

If I really did meet up with Peart or the band I'd be the model of courtesy, cos I'm English and nobody does good manners like English "Old-Rush" fans...

So you would say Rush was crap for the past 25 years to the band's face...but you would be courtious about it??? How does that work exactly...?? Gonna do your best Ricky Bobby "With all do respect" line?

 

And if you think they have been crap for 25 years...why are you still a fan? This is a "fan" forum, isn't it?

 

Have you just been holding out hope that they will release Moving Pictures II all these years?

 

And I sure would be proud of your never say die attitude when it comes to negativity...don't let 'em bring you UP man!

I give out my age

My legitimate points get lost in the bias fest

 

So no, I do not give out my age.

Yeah ,that's what I figured.

Careful, your bias is showing.

Come on - admit it AEW - you're a high functioning 5 year old. Just give 'em what they wanna hear.

 

Just try and avoid the phrase "I made a boom boom" in your posts

I love it when people accuse the band of carelessness. What the fk have YOU ever done? Have YOU spent 40 years recording music professionally, touring and being generally awesome? It's one thing to say you don't like the finished product, I totally get that. There's *lots* of music I don't like, some of it from Rush. But to say they were careless is saying that you know enough about their workflow to know that they just weren't paying attention. How unbelievably arrogant. It says far more about the person making the accusation than it does about the accused.

I'm saying that they are aware of the weaknesses in their songs, but decline to invest the necessary energy into resolving them into what would become excellence.

And I'm saying that you're an arrogant troll who doesn't know the first thing about how the band works.

You take these things so personally, I don't even understand.

He is questioning their character, work ethic and dedication to their craft. Rush have earned respect and everybody on this board should be pissed by comments like that dazed025.gif

Precisely. Thanks.

Sometimes I'm negative because it's fun. Its infinitely more enjoyable to make a (seemingly) witty comment about an album or song I don't like than just shut up and not say anything. That said, people should take it for what it is. Its just my attempt at humor. When I see someone else joking negatively about something I like I just laugh and move on. The general feeling I get is that we need to lighten up and stop taking other peoples' (and our) opinions so seriously, myself included.

Some people will never get this.

Oh no...I "get it". I may be new to these forums...but I have seen your type of "humor" before. You two are the type that get enjoyment out of putting stuff down. Everything "sucks" or is "lame". I went to school with people like you. Your idea of "fun" is putting other people and ideas down. What I don't get, is why you claim to be a rush fan, but all you have to say is how much they suck...why waste the energy? Well I know why...because to you it is fun. This isn't a politcal debate, we aren't solving the worlds problems...we are all supposed to be here because we love Rush

Two posts in, and you've already got me all figured out. Well done

Wasn't that difficult

Some people just don't know how to have fun. biggrin.gif

No, some (in fact, most people I know) don't think being negative is fun.

Nobody is negative just for the sake of being negative. That would be irrational. What is fun is conflict. Conflict is exciting. It is entertaining. Can you imagine a movie with two hours of characters just hugging or sh*t like that? Do you know how boring that would be? Whether you like it or not, you probably enjoy conflict too. It is the spice of life.

"Nobody is negative just for the sake of being negative"? But earlier you said, "Sometimes I'm negative because it's fun." confused13.gif

Don't worry, I'm not being negative. I'm giving you more spice in your life. pokey.gif

The results are fun.

I don't know man. You mainly seem to say contradictory things. And it doesn't even seem like you realize it. I can imagine you posting these...

 

Your 1st post: Tom Sawyer needs to be dropped from their setlist. It's good but not that good. I've heard enough of it and I'm sure a lot of other fans have too.

Your 2nd post: Tom Sawyer is such a great song and a worthy staple to their live gigs. I can't wait to hear it on the next tour.

Your 3rd post: I think you missed my point about what I was saying about Tom Sawyer.

 

Catch the drift.

Not really.

How old are you?..

It's a process.

 

I give out my age

People think "wow he's young! He must be stupid!"

My legitimate points get lost in the bias fest

 

So no, I do not give out my age.

Yeah ,that's what I figured.

Careful, your bias is showing.

Come on - admit it AEW - you're a high functioning 5 year old. Just give 'em what they wanna hear.

 

Just try and avoid the phrase "I made a boom boom" in your posts

All these meanies keep hurting my feelings and it hurts as much as my boo-boo on my knee cuz I fall and scrapped it on the grund.
