Selling out?!

KarriTheCannibal @KarriTheCannibal (2) • United States 22 Nov 10

I have been a hard core Green Day fan for 7 1/2 years now. But in the last 5 years I have seen a change in their style. Some say they are going main stream, and going soft for the money. Others say that they are simply growing up....

DasJaeger I think they've gotten mature. I like their old stuff, but I like their new songs better. "21 guns"...just "21 guns". Love that song. I don't think "selling out" exists...you just change your style. People say Metallica has sold out. Nooooooo. They've just...

driving, cellphone

irene66 @irene66 (1669) • Philippines 22 Nov 10

These days, I see motorist drive with cellphone on their ear. If not dialing or texting. Sometimes if I ride on a taxi, the driver does the same. It makes me nervous and irritated. One time, I tried to tell the driver the...

DasJaeger I can't stand when people do that--especially when I'm in the car. About a year ago, I literally chucked a cell phone out the window because the driver was texting with it. She literally swerved in an attempt to get it back--on a highway where she...

Has music lost it's flavor?

tuamora @tuamora (79) • United States 10 Nov 10

I am currently at a retail store and they are playing a song over the intercom. THe last three songs that were played ina row all sounded almost exactly the same. i believe it is in the same key and has relatively the same rhythm....

DasJaeger No way has music lost flavor--if you think I'm kidding, you may need to find more genres in your life. There will always be something new to hear. Even if two songs sound similar, they're not the same--each has its own "thing".

Are you Offended by the Implication of Merry Christmas in Commercials?

maximumgravity1 @maximumgravity1 (245) • United States 21 Nov 10

A pet peeve I have long held is the political correctness of the term "Happy Holidays". I personally hope to offend no one, but honestly don't go out of my way in being myself to ensure that I don't offend anyone. I often take the...

DasJaeger Your wife sounds like a very interesting person. ;) It really is frustrating to watch a nation that was founded on the principles of individual freedoms try to pander to everyone who they think gives two licks. Even if they don't give two licks. I'm sick...

DasJaeger I like how you didn't go as raving mad as I may have when writing something like that. Honestly, I find the hyper-sensitivity in the States (I live there, no biting off of the head, please) absolutely deplorable. I've taken up the mantra that "Politically...

Help! writing UCAS personal statement and need reasons of why study economics!

kylina @kylina (178) 21 Nov 10

It may seem like a stupid question, but I really don't know what I should write D= All the advice go on about showing why you're passionate about that subject but that's the thing - I'm not. I just want a degree in economics so...

DasJaeger You can describe your reasons for wanting to take up a career in finance, and connect that to your choice of major. If this is a graduate statement, you'll REALLY need to flesh it out, but definitely focus on your goals--what you'll do when you graduate. If...

Love is a decision not a feeling?

dhyeiii @dhyeiii (23) • Philippines 21 Nov 10

Love is our topic in our small group discussion. We are debating if Love really a decision not a feeling. Well, in my opinion it is a decision because it's up to you if you want to loved and be loved. What do you think is it...

DasJaeger Funny, I've seen it as somewhere in the middle. Love is an unexpected thing--think of how many people fall in love at first sight, all the crazy stories you hear about love. But still, it tends to not happen unless you actually want it to--I used to be a...

Do you have third eye?

mayrah @mayrah (1144) • United States 21 Nov 10

Do you believe in psychic? Do you believe that there are people who can see things that are invisible to us? I just wonder if they really see ghost or things that are not seen by ordinary person? Who among of you here who have...

DasJaeger I have always believed in "third eye" and psychic powers--and always wanted them. I've figured out part of the reason why too, and it's so lame: I'm just tired of being normal. Tired of doing and seeing the same thing everyone else sees. I don't think I'd tell...

How often do you write each day?

karinaisfun @karinaisfun (12) 21 Nov 10

I usually only write about 5 pages a week. However, it is my New Year's Resolution to write at least 5 pages a day, regardless of what those five pages are-- any writing is better than none! I have one novel I have just started...

DasJaeger I wish I had your kind of time, but I usually try to write an absolute bare minimum of a page a day--of anything, be it poems, stories, Role-playing posts or character biographies (which can get exhaustive, if you're writing them the way I do). Once I get into...

Best female rock vocals?

maezee @maezee (41988) • United States 22 Dec 09

Which chick rock stars do you think had the best voices, throughout history? I'm trying to find some new music to listen to and I LOVE music where there's a chick who has incredible pipes! The only few I could think of that fit...

DasJaeger I love female rockers. I'd go for: 1: Joan Jett of Joan Jett and the Blackhearts- Such a hot "bad girl" image. I like her almost rough delivery, she sings with a snarl. I'm partial to "I love Rock and Roll". 2: Christina Scabbia of Lacuna Coil- A lovely...
