Gah...fuck double posting and this slow-ass PC I'm on (not mine).
What are you going to do.
A couple weeks ago there started being a huge spike of double/triple posts on this site. No idea why though.
I really feel the urge to cut myself again.
Man, you really need to talk to your doctor or your family.
I would've said this last time you were talking about this stuff but I felt like I was beating a dead horse for posting so I ended up not posting.
If you have a family doctor that you've had your entire or most of your life, SEE HIM/HER ASAP.
Pay for a one or even two hour session with her and tell her EVERYTHING about your life. (Social life, newgrounds, Metal, the FBI, etc, etc, etc.)
This will make you feel shitloads better yourself, it will result in you getting whatever help is necessary, if you ever do anything stupid like kill someone or something(Which I REALLY hope you don't) she can back up that your insane(You said you were losing touch with reality, no?) also this makes it so if a cop arrests you for "Assaulting an officer" when no one sees you and there are no cameras you have NO way out and telling the doctor everything makes someone know that these people are after you.
And if you are in court against a cop with no evidence, witnesses, etc. It becomes your opinion VS a cops opinion and the cop will ALWAYS win.
Also, it sucks ass that I don't have enough money to go to Maryland Deathfest this year.
I'd really appreciate a link to all the bands playing there or a copy + Paste list or something.
A friend of mine is driving all the way down there and offered me a ride to and fro as long as I paid for everything related to me(Ticket, Food, etc.) and that I confirmed that hes over 18 to all chicks he meets. (Even though hes really 17)

"Metal sucks" is not an argument. You want an argument? Here it goes. Metal is the definition of diversity. You can have clean vocals, high pitch vocals, growls, screams, opera vocals and many others. There is so many different genre and sub-genres, a life time is not enough to learn even half of what the metal scene as given us. During one song you can ear 6 or 7 diffent riffs or even 20 different riffs when talking about progressive or ambiant metal. Mastering metal drumming is probably harder than learning any other type of drumming. Along with Funk music, Metal is the best music for great bass lines. The greatest bass players are found on the metal scene (death metal and progressive metal). Therefore I just fucking win. Metal is art, Lady Gaga is just the same shit over and over again... put it in the microwave, press on reheat and here we go."
Ummmmmmmm....................no mention of guitar work? No mention of HOW difficult is to sing Falsetto? No mention of how complex and meaningful some songs are? No mention that metal can make you feel just about any emotion possible?
But those aren't the main problems I had, it was your lack of examples. You see, some times when people argue with metal fans online they give a similar argument to what you just gave, only they include examples for everything that said.
This makes the other person pissed enough by not to either:
A.) Listen to said bands(Maybe 1 - 4 songs on youtube or whatever) so they can retaliate with blatant personal assaults on said band and make themselves out to be an even bigger douche.
B.) Shut the fuck up, since the examples make you look a lot smarter, maturer, dedicated to metal(So no one online could change your opinion) but most of all, it makes your comment BIGGER. I don't know why, but if people post a LONG argument online sometimes people don't take the time to read it, or at least reply to it.
C.) Listen to said bands and actually LIKE them. There is always a 1 in 10 chance when they check out example bands they either can't find ANY problems to criticize and in a even rarer case, they might come out loving the said band or bands.
Just a few suggestions to improve your future arguments.
Now go get em tiger, argue with people all over the interwebs.
Just PLEASE don't do it in this ONE thread. :P
