Having, collecting and hoarding

[arewethereyet]

Please, do tell us more about your heavy metal lifestyle.

Do you think Jethro Tull should have beat out Metallica in that category at the Grammys?

Ha ha ha, I had many stages. 

In the 70s I was into disco, Charlie's Angels, 6 Million Dollar Man, Bionic Woman, Gilligan's Island, Love Boat, CHIPS. In the 80s I was into Family Ties, TJ Hooker, Rick Springfield,  Journey, Buck Rogers, Hunter, Moonlighting, Blondie. In the late 80s I was into the Ramones, Metallica, Megadeath. Living Colour. I in the early 90s I got into Manhattan Transfer, Harry Conic Jr, David Sanborn and Candy Dulfer. 

Is it impossible in old age, to look back at one's entire life and value each part of that journey and value all of it, even with the changes?

YES I love ABBA, and Pat Benatar, and The Bee Gees and Metallica and the Ramones and even this classical music song.

I had a couple of years in High School where I would mix camouflage military issue fatigues with white collared shirts and argyle vest sweaters.

I notice your life stopped 'evolving' in the 90s.  Not a big surprise.

How does liking a variety of things mean i stopped evolving?

I cant lie and say I like most of pop/rock/rap that young people are into today. But that isn't claiming they are wrong, just in that times change. 

Today's youth in 20 or 30 years will look back on their parents music the same way I did with my own mothers. Now you tell me why was my late mother wrong for liking this song. 

That was a popular hit when she was a kid.

Ok, so we not only get a rundown of what YOU like, you have to drag your dead mum into it?

Nice low there asshole.

I wasn't bringing it up because she was dead. I was only bringing it up because times change.

She also was not into my music in the 70s or 80s as a young kid, BUT we did find common ground. She loved Abba, she loved a couple of Blondie songs, and our collective favorite was "My Life" by Billy Joel. 

I have every right to bring her up, I lived with her, I knew her, YOU DID NOT!

I only bring up that Bing Crosby Song she grew up with, not to hide behind her memory, but to remind every generation that times change, and don't say that they do not.

You miss my point, which is that no one cares.

To be fair, though, you’ve once again managed to hijack a thread by making it all about you. Well done.

Yes the entire universe is centered around me. BOW TO ME. OBEY ME, SUCK MY LICK.

Or get a grip.

I should return the favor and go talk about guns on one of his ABBA lovefest threads.....


It'd only be fair....

Somebody has a long memory. good for you. But if you are not barbecuing kittens or recording the NFL without their permission, you are not completing the trifecta.

Am I tripping or just stoned when I need to make the call?
