I guess because it’s absurd you’ll remember it easier.

Kind of how people can recall a deck of cards playing placing people doing an action to an object in familiar places. It’s the absurdity that makes you remember.

This one looks stoned so it’s chill.

Happy cake day.

First time I’ve seen it.

I don’t think memes have to evoke laughter.

I live in Manchester. Which is an amazing city for public transport. I work in Cheshire which isn’t.

As I said. To take the train. I must walk from my town 20 minutes to the Metrolink, then take that 35-40 minutes into Manchester, then take the train 45 minutes to Cheshire, and then finally walk another 20 minutes to the office. That’s without counting any waiting periods in between. VS 75 minute drive.

We haven’t even factored in it rains 70% of days here. Or even the cost.

You can moan at my boss for not allowing fully WFH. But my point was some people can’t just commute everywhere. Perhaps when I’m more experienced I can find a job closer to home or more remote, but for now this is all I can do.

Edit: I have nothing to rebut to people online. I was merely giving an example. Get off your high horse mate.

Although I agree that using cars on pointless journeys is a waste and not good for the planet, but using public transport isn’t always an option.

If I’m travelling 6 miles in to town then I’m taking the tram, but it really isn’t feasible when travelling 40 miles to work and back 3 times a week. Sure there are trains, but I would have to get up an hour earlier, set off an hour earlier, wait 50 minutes for the train home, and get home two hours later. As I would also have to take the tram 40 minutes to the train station and walk 20 mins before that.

I have a car that I use for work. Outside of that I’m walking or taking public transport.

Yo mods why you remove my comment?

Edit: Essentially asking the same questions as JayTreeman.

Edit 2: It appears my comment was reinstated after I provided a source to counter the misinformation report. I would expect better of the mods to do some due diligence before just censoring comments. There is enough of this in the MSM and it does nothing to further allow people to see what is happening. Thank whichever mod undid the action, hoping it was little_cow but not sure.

Alls I can say is you’re listening to the wrong kind of music is you think all current music is vapid.

I’ve already mentioned Kendrick, who won a Pulitzer Prize I might add. There are plenty of people with conscientious lyrics. Dave would be an example from the UK, his album We’re all alone in this together is top tier. Three rivers is legendary and very political.

I don’t want to seem like I’m being aggy here, but perhaps you could take my approach to seeking out this kind of stuff as there is more than just industry knocking out clones. Sure there are plants and stuff but there are real artists out here still.

It’s honestly quite arrogant to think great artists stopped at our generation my guy.

Do you not believe that music, particularly the lyrics, is a snapshot in time of what the artists ideas and beliefs are?

You can use the zeitgeist to get a measure of how things change over time. As I believe music is the most emotive form of expression.

Motherfucker read the room.

The only person here with a weird take is you fam.

I think you might have my motivations a little confused.

I don’t want to be current myself. I want to keep up with current art, as it’s fascinating. Should I have not gotten in Beethoven and Chopin because those were before my time?

I don’t listen to vapid pop, pop music and what’s popular in different genres are two different things. I know I’m flogging this horse in a few comments, but Kendrick is certified lyrical genius and I never would have found him hadn’t I put the work in.

It’s not to make friends, hell I’ve got too many friends and I don’t need anymore. I don’t even share the new stuff with them as they don’t care, which is cool.

I do like what I like , hence I want to find more of what I might like you know.

I know you said it’s just your opinion, but I hope this gives more perspective on my intentions here, this is for me and me alone.

This is a weird take. It’s creepy to want to keep up to date with current trends.

Kendrick Lamar is a certified beast and my life is better having found his music than not.

Anyway, what does it say about a person if they don’t want to continually learn, grow, and move out of their comfort zone.

I hope you’re not projecting.

The algos are not all there cracked up to be, they get quite repetitive.

Because I wanted to keep up with changes in art, as well as understanding the younger generation more.

There is huge divide between generations from the elders and it’s usually due to ignorance or superiority and it achieves nothing.

I honestly think your view is weird. Why wouldn’t you want to understand your fellow humans more.

I meant relative to teens really, sadly I’ve got another 40 years to go before my forever nap.

I should have money, but I was very irresponsible and only the last 5 years have I started to progress at life. No family ever, I like being single and I couldn’t look after children I am too selfish with my time.

You’ve made me think now what period of my life I enjoyed and I honestly couldn’t choose. I guess now as I’m on a better trajectory.

True.

I also realise I have no idea why Drake is rated so highly, dudes goofy as fuck and his music is mid at best.

Bro I ain’t drake.

I am aware that at this age gap is have nothing in common with a 19 year old other than sex.
