I love it. Third wave, mostly, but second is also good. OG ska is fine I guess, but isn't as punkrock as I like my music.

okay so what are your favorite ska albums

Arrogant Sons of Bitches are pretty good

What did you drink?

Of the top of my head, the big ones are everyone's favs

The Specials - Self-Titled
Opration Ivy - Operation Ivy
The Toasters - Don't Let Bastards Grind You Down
The Beat - I Just Can't Stop It
The Slackers - Wasted Days
Streetlight Manifesto - Everything Goes Numb
Catch 22 - Keasby Nights
The Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Don't Know How to Party
Rancid - ... And Out Come the Wolves

i think Jeff Rosenstock is probably my favorite musician right now and I absolutely love everything he does. The Arrogent Sons of Bitches album is definitely ska, and I consider Bomb The Music Industry to be ska. His solo career is probably more punk than ska, but literally every solo album is at least an 8/10 imo.

my fav of Jeff Projects are

The Arrogant Sons of Bitches - Three Cheers for Disappointment

Bomb the Music Industry - Album Minus Band | To Leave or Die in Long Island | Get Warner | Adults!!!: Smart!!! Shithammered!!! And Excited by Nothing!!!!!!!

Jeff Rosenstock - I look Like Shit | Worry. | N O D R E A M

Bomb is great for hard and fast punk/ska. I'd recommend starting with Get Warmer.

solo is more pop punk I guess. Solid starting point is "We Cool" but "Worry" is his opus. No Dream is my personal fav.

Why did you drink Blue Moon instead of a better beer?

Well, we could add each other on Steam, but really, we just need to work out what you want and I could send you the key(s) over GameFAQs private message. Steam chat is faster though, so add me.

It's supposed to be really good. I own it but haven't played it yet. It has a mini game that's free and a sequel.

Neat! I think I've seen the cover art somewhere but not sure

A hippie speedball has nothing to do with heroin. It's caffeine (commonly coffee) and weed.

Update: I puked and so I'm probably going to just stay in my room.

Odd combo.

Blue moon is terrible (also by the time of purchased it's old beer).
Which rum? Never seen someone use Snapple as a mixer.
Root beer would cover up the gin.

Are you spicy in the bedroom?

I think it's fine.
captain morgan spiced I think? It was my roommate's so I'm not sure. I had a Snapple in the fridge so I used it. Would recommend.
rb and gin both have a plant taste. Good compliment

Not more than the average person. Normal kinks. Not a huge sex drive either though tbh

Interesting. Some when drunk can't perform however I find I feel more in the mood. It's some cruel irony though as I don't have nothing but my hand.
I'm still drinking.

It is an enjoyable game, the game is emotional, story driven game.

I'm hungover and my head hurts but I have a lot of homework to do. I'll never get drunk again

A little bloody mary will fix that headache for you.

idk a lot about music quality, but I've heard Jeff say in interviews and on tiwtter that because he wasn't concerned with preservation or fidelity of his music 20 years ago, a lot of early stuff (especially from Bomb) the master recordings were MP3s on not-great mics, and that's basically as good as it'll get

I can handle lo-fi, but that is a bit of a different issue than low quality MP3 files. I listen to a lot of music where the recording budgets were dang near non-existent and it sounds lo-fi. But I want to capture that in all of its glory, and a low quality MP3 further distorts the original idea.

It shouldn't be too difficult for me to find higher quality copies of this stuff. I could also purchase some stuff which I don't mind doing, to support the artist but also ensure I get high quality mp3 files or FLAC.

One of the easiest ways I've discovered to tell if an MP3 is low quality is the cymbals on the drums. They have artifacts on their sound in low quality mp3...like a low level whine that just shouldn't be there.

Somebody asked me once why care about audio quality when the stuff you listen to is lo-fi from the studio, and the answer is I want the artists actual ideas to come out, and putting basically a sock in the vocalists mouth with a low quality MP3 is not that original idea.

I am no expert into audio quality, so this may not be 100% correct, but thats my take.
