save the frogs

when running out of crap to talk about, Chomsky is a good safe topic to fall back on. to get back on your nonsensical topic. tinned food ie sardines was invented for times of emergency ... so tinned food is emergency food, not olive oil. then I decided to look up how long can the human body survive without protein and found this. https://www.diagnosisdiet.com/full-article/protein#:~:text=We can live a whole,days without eating any protein. We can live a whole lifetime (after infancy) without eating any carbohydrate, and we can live for 6 months or more without eating any fat, depending on how much fat we have on our bodies to begin with. However, we have no way to store proteins and can only live for a maximum of 70 days without eating any protein.

It's the same as asking if god exists. nobody knows, so people invent gods. and nobody knows what they're meant to be doing with their lives, so people make things up. like for instance, controlling other people. ever encounter a control freak? they're bringing meaning to their life by controlling YOU. edit: they removed the Location thingy. aseannow no longer cares where you're located.

noam chomsky is over-rated

I deleted my post because I thought I was banging my head against the wall. But thanks for your understanding. You understand how it works.

>never mind

grow up. you're not a teenager anymore.

sorry, I suppose I've been trolling the thread. but to be honest, the thread seems pointless. hasn't everyone basically shagged to dozens and dozens of love songs? and isn't there a high probability that there is overlap in the songs people have shagged to since we were all listening to the same radio stations back in the day? I almost get a whiff that there is a certain "kinship" when 2 people claim the same song they shagged to, which seems silly to me. But then again, I'm stressed out because of a lot of things right now. So maybe I should get off the internet. And my apologies for general disruption of the thread, the pointlessness of it notwithstanding.

you are arrogant and self-absorbed and most of your topics and comments have litte relevance to anyone around you.

but most people are not grounded in what they perceive as 'love'. also, why do people get so nervous when someone has a different preference in music and thinks their band sucks? there's some messed up psychology behind that.

yeah, sorry, just one more ahole comment from me.. clapton's layla is basically him stealing george harrison's woman away from him. good song, but story behind it wasnt cool at all. ok sorry, now I'm outta here.

yeah i'm outta here. i did post a few songs.

if the topic is outrageous, then you can never run out of ideas. that's the whole point.

most people don't pay attention to song lyrics. half of Zeppelin songs mention something about "leaving their woman". it's better than beating your woman, I guess?

Sorry, I don't know what Onward Christian Soldiers is. should I ask ChatGPT? most love songs are not representative at all about real love and relationships. maybe some are. most are an idealized courtship, which lasts 2 weeks at most. They are causing problems by creating fantasies and false illusions of what a relationship is. I'll tell you a story. My nephew's girlfriend went to see Harry Styles in concert and had to pay 500$ or some exorbitant price to sit in the front row. But this seems like it's going beyond just appreciating the artist ... looks to me like she is fantasizing about a romantic relationship with Harry Styles. And of course the more "romantic" a guy is, the more women he has. Harry Styles probably had a million girls. That's what "The Romantics" in Medieval Europe originally were .... a bunch of guys who came up with clever ways to woo other people's wives. Is it a coincidence that there is a divorce thread on here at the same time as a love song thread? What we have is excessive fantasyland romance in songs and movies AND excessive divorce rates. If you really want to get laid with loads and loads of women, write love songs. And if you're not good at writing love songs, become a divorce lawyer.

He promised he would quit the forum. But unfortunately he is not a man of his word.

at one point in the video I linked, he is singing "dream until your balls turn blue". I don't need crazy lyrics and I don't need music that is trying to jolt me into debauchery. If that's what you need, go for it.

oh, you just reminded me of this one. I just realized ... it depends who is singing a love song. most are cheesy, but this one is COOL.

I don't know. I give up. Linda McCartney? My main point is being lost here. And that is that most of these love songs are "fantasy land", much like science-fiction, Star Trek, Star Wars. It's not grounded in reality. Beware of cognitive dissonance. Pretty soon you will end up like Gamma believing olive oil contains amino acids.

they should have a "most useless and pointless thread of the year" award.

I love how people who frequent these places need to emphasize that they are "gents". Not judging people for going to these places. Been there myself. But seriously though, the word "gents" is comical.

I believe McCartney wrote "silly love songs" because Lennon made fun of him for writing too many love songs and claiming it was silly. Even though Lennon seemed to write quite a few love songs himself.

why do you even need "to rock"? and why is steven tyler screeching like a bat out of hell in this song at 4:14? someone please get me an acoustic guitar or a harp to sooth my jangled nerves from this noise.

Love song about reflecting back on the special moments in your own life

spanish train. love song for all lost souls.
