What the hell is wrong with people??? This cow should have been kicked off the plane. While it was in flight. And sans parachute. Jesus wept.

Here we go again - another nut job.

RE: I read the news today, oh boy! - CRAZY-HORSE - 06-09-2020
not reading the news butaccording the the TV news this morning it seems that the conspiracy theorists are at it again, this time theyre blaming the rise of Covid on the worldwide rollout of the 5G Cellular phone rollout.
RE: I read the news today, oh boy! - Jerome - 06-09-2020
I guess they haven't noticed that many, many countries that do have C19 outbreaks don't yet have 5G???? I am beginning to wonder what the ratio of normal to nutjob is on the planet.
RE: I read the news today, oh boy! - CRAZY-HORSE - 06-09-2020
i actually know a 5G conspiracy theorist.
he believes its a part of blah blah blah... i just switch off when he starts that crap
thankfully i only cross paths with him every few months at the shopping centre when i cant avoid him.
the thing is, he is a very smart man, highly educated but since his wife died a few years ago he hasnt had anyone to reign him in when he talks crap,
or it could be because he peddles "the watchtower"??? LOL

Elton John's thoughts on the modern music charts/artists: https://www.officialcharts.com/chart-news/elton-john-criticises-modern-pop-chart-music-isnt-real-music__30855/
RE: I read the news today, oh boy! - Jerome - 09-09-2020
He's right too.
The current requirements for getting to the top of the charts:
Dress like a hooker
Have a rap sheet
Programmed beats - must go 'doof, doof, doof' all the time, non-stop
Snare must sound like it's 'played' on a coffee tin
Bass must drown out all other sound when it's played
Must have 'featuring...' in the title of the track
Song must contain offensive lyrics written by someone with the mentality of a 12 year old
Song must be interspersed with stupid sound effects - 'Yo Bro' or similar 'words'
Dancers for the video that probably ARE hookers
Stupid makeup
No actual ability with a musical instrument of any description - this is probably the single most important requirement
Artwork for the single or album must contain one of the following - loads of cheap jewellery, flashy cars, bundles of monopoly money and scantily clad women. Gold dental fillings are a bonus.
Oh yes before I forget you don't have to be able to actually sing - you can just talk nonstop while some simplistic plink plonk type melody plays monotonously in the background along with aforementioned beats. And if you can't talk in key then there's Autotune to fix the problem.

Geez dude...
dont hold back next time, you need to be able to say exactly what you think LOL
RE: I read the news today, oh boy! - Music Head - 09-09-2020
yea, Elton nailed it
and I love his line about being more interested in what’s coming next than what went by
and Jerome nailed it too
RE: I read the news today, oh boy! - CRAZY-HORSE - 12-09-2020
im speechless....
