Well you're getting all Zen lately, eh? And you're NOT "old", you bastid.

As for "why are we talking about this", it's because I made the mistake of starting a thread expecting a good share of funny stuff. Only Genteel Death's post put a smile on my face. But hey, a thread's gonna go where a thread's gonna go...

I mean, I wasn’t even referring to anything you’d said, I don’t think. More just the general response to her that I see on social media and in the word.

Yeah, I’m old-ish. Old by Billie standards. But I still think it’s kinda silly when people get up in arms about whatever she’s doing or saying, or how it’s not really music or what.

Anyway, I’ve made my point. Whatever it was. At some point.

Live and let live. Hard for me to do anything other than wish her the best and hope her life isn’t filled with drug abuse and decades of media hyper-scrutiny like the aforementioned Britney. Sad.

tw2113 02.10.2020 10:27 PM

my take: someone I'm not supposed to necessarily "get". Live and let live in this case

Skuj 02.10.2020 11:15 PM

FUCK.

I was sure I was done posting here forever, to become an occassional lurker of what has become a car crash of a forum. This thread exemplifies my stance.

1. Her album is fucking wonderful. LISTEN TO IT, BITCHES!!!
2. She is fucking wonderful. Google any interview.
3. Her brother is not a creep. Fuck you!! Google any interview.
4. Her brother produced the album.
5. Her brother did NOT write all the songs. He wrote 2 of them.
6. I can't wait to see what she does next.
7. Now I have to change my fucking signature.
8. Fuck you!!

!@#$%! 02.10.2020 11:48 PM

dammit, you lost the golden ratio

now you need to post 16,180 and get even

re 6. She will appear on the next SWANS album.

Maybe Skuj will start another account -jukS- and become a regular contributor to SYG again?

Severian 02.11.2020 08:55 AM

Is there some reason why some people seem to think her brother is “creepy”?

Again, know very little about all of this, but from what I’ve gathered through the Vanity Fair interviews, they’re just, like, brother and sister, and they work together.

Not steering this question one way or the other, just really curious as to why “creepy” has been thrown around. Is there some allegation, or some weird Mormon thing going on or something?

choc e-Claire 02.11.2020 02:46 PM

As h8kurdt said, he's dating someone who looks a lot like his sister. That's largely just it.

oh yeah.

I actually didn’t think they looked that much alike, to be honest.

But whatever

Now, what’s really weird is that the Osmonds look a bit like Romneys.

Families and cultus are crazy.

speaking as an ancient: santana back in the 70s had a crap song called “let the children play.” which, bad music aside, is good advice for everyone.

you should probably torment yourself with it for a bit, memorize the lyrics, and quit being a smartass pendejo :D

(i mean, if you’re having problems with a 12 year old maybe it’s you who needs to grow up)

I definitely don’t love her, just don’t really get hating her.

And I already feel old. Can’t put that genie back in the bottle. Hah!

:(

Genteel Death 02.18.2020 03:20 PM

Wait, isn't that louder username the bloke who looks like the singer in Depeche Mode and in the past has been attacking people for not paying attention to his poorly attended hip hop cafes because they're too old to get it? LOL. That's hilarious. Girlfriend left him or something?

Damn man. That’s kinda mean.

What the hell is he even doing?? First off, imagine taking that post to heart and attacking me on a personal level for it. His life can't possible be that dull, right?? Secondly, that dude is a creepy washed up man who has actually:

1. Complimented me on my hip hop knowledge several times before
2. Hit on me when I was a teenager, calling me attractive and obsessing with my looks

He also has no idea how I look anymore since I haven't posted my pic in a decade. I'm not surprised that he's curious about my dating life though, yikes.


The Depeche Mode singer was a sex icon in his early days.. so even though we look nothing alike atm, finding a slight resemblance to him isn't gonna crush my feelings.


Anyway, let that creepy grandpa be an obsessive stalker, and hold a grudge for a teenager on a forum rejecting him a decade ago, I guess. Pretty sure I wasn't even in my 20's at the time.. so yeah.

louder 03.07.2020 02:33 PM

Once I rejected him, he also used to spam my account with neg-reps, working the hardest for weeks in an attempt to turn my karma thing into red. Which he never successfully pulled off btw. All this effort in vain.. sad. :(


I'm not the first person he lashes at on here either. Gramps needs a good humbling lesson. You can't just randomly come at people like that, wtf?? In the real world, you could get your shit rocked for this sort of behavior.


Moving on from the manchild pedo attention-seeking troll.. how are the rest of y'all doing?

Peterpuff 03.09.2020 04:52 PM

I watched her Nardwuar interviews several months ago out of my own curiosity. She seems pretty grounded and legit, I thought.

I fucking love her in interviews. I don't know how anyone can watch that carpool karaoke episode and not conclude that she is a supremely wonderful person. And that album she made with her brother is damn good. Maybe I said that before though.

Calm down dude, I think you're confusing me with that Severian man.

louder 03.11.2020 01:05 AM

Pathetic try. The fact this was the highlight of your miserable day and you're getting a dopamine rush from harassing people online is pathetic too.



NEVER talk about me or to me again. Just fuck off for eternity, thanks.

My unofficial niece is obsessed with Billie Eilish. She's 10. Part of it is the same reason I latched onto Kurt Cobain at her age: gender bending. Cobain made it ok for me to be femme in the punk scene. Eilish is giving her license to be a tomboy and come out as les. She wants saggy pants. She thought she might be a trans boy. Between that and queer, she is pretty attached to me. She always sits to my right at tables, never fails. Adorable.

Her and her twin brother have pretty radical taste in music since their mom is big in the avant/experimental scene. They grew up used to noise. They genuinely love a lot of music too adventurous for most adults. I thought it was pretty funny getting out of the car and both of them finished the 100 gecs song we were listening to. The girl figured out the lyrics to Nobukazu Takemura's Falls Lake. I've never figured out all the lyrics. It's such a weird chord progression. Everyone I've played that song to couldn't stand it by the first verse. I love those damn kids. The boy already "wrote" his first experimental piece for violin. A string broke and he was using it to make scraping sounds.

And, um, the album When We All Fall Asleep Where Do We Go is fucking excellent. Have I mentioned that yet?

It's from before you joined the forum I think.


Anyway I said what I said, moving on now and hopefully he never tries to annoy me again..
If you want to talk about it or something send me another PM..

Could be. Accusing a gay person of being a paedophile on the internet would indicate you both suffer from the same type of homophobia you have both displayed on forums.

You being gay is not the issue here. I was literally a teenager when I posted my pic and you've been making unwelcome remarks on my appearance since.

If a heterosexual woman who's decades older than me did it, she would creepy and I'd call her out for it too.

Back when I was a kid I probably made a few homophobic posts. Nowadays as an adult I can attest that Sev and I are both well-educated people who know better. So nah. Your narrative isn't working here.

See.. once again you try to bait people like any other super bored forum troll with way too much free time in their hands. Go do something productive.

Nah it wasn't a goddamn joke.


Don't try to make the issue less severe than it is. The Genteel character rightfully got called out for their actions.

Dude tried to turn the tables with a false narrative so obviously I had to call bullshit.

Everything I said in this thread was in response to previous things that were being said.

Mind your business instead of blindly caping for your online buddy.
