I will be leaving this forum.

Apparently, you're a liar.

Ok, I haven't been around much in the last couple years....I come back and many of the old timers are gone and have been replaced by douchebags. What the hell???

I took the classical spelling.

I was under the impression you taught yourself English.

-I was born in Argentina and moved to the US when I was 16.

Were your grandparents in PNF before they escaped to Argentina? It would explain where some of your aesthetic principles come from. I guess we are a bunch of dumb negro-music lovers to you. What else you don't like? I bet modern art and specially expressionism. I'm sure you also loathe Buñuel, Pasolini and Godard while you and your pals, wearing Hugo Boss suits screen (in a big art deco hall of course) positivistic black & white pictures from the 30's where haute bourgeoisie folks are portrayed as the salt of the earth. Please tell me I'm wrong!

1. I did teach myself English. I was bullshitting about taking the "classical spelling" of the word. (I have always been fascinated with the American Revolution, and love the way they wrote back then.)

2. My parents, and their parents, their parents' parents, etc., were all born in Argentina. In the 1800s, many Europeans moved to Argentina. (So ethnically, I am Italian, German and Spanish.) I didn't flee there, and I am not rascist. I just think I should be able to say music sucks today without being labelled as such. Even classical music today is bizarre, with people trying to make it sound atonal.

Yeah, he did... But even dead, he's still better than you.

Having a strong opinion is great. Presenting your opinion (especially about something as subjective as art or music) as an objective fact is idiotic and immature. There are two reasons people do it: they are either that stupid and immature, or they are intentionally agitating (aka trolling). Either way, people pick up on it right away, and it will only result in you getting attacked or ultimately banned when the admins get tired of you. It's message board 101, and you're failing miserably.

There are probably plenty of people here who agree with many of your points, but they understand that they are opinions. They know how to discuss their opinions in a mature manner, respect the opinions of others (or have at least learned to act like they do), and understand that sometimes it's OK to agree to disagree.

You hinted that you might understand some of this in your brief moment of clarity (post #66), but you're either lacking something or just don't have any respect for the people here. In either case, you should probably just take a hike at this point.

Looks like he did after all.
