How do you choose your type of music?

Wink24 @Wink24 (167) • Philippines 26 Jun 09

For me, life without music is kinda sad. But how do you choose the music/songs you want/love to listen? Me, actually any type of music is okay to me, as long as the volume is not too loud for the heavy metal or rock songs but, I...

oldmanhorrorfan It's whatever you decide to listen to, you decide what music makes you happen, what moves you, what makes you dance, what makes you tap your foot. Nobody else, except you can make this choice. I like to play music and when I hear a song, a song I like, it's...

Why do people refer to GOD as a HE?

tambrerocks @tambrerocks (123) • United States 7 Nov 09

I have found that when people talk about GOD they always follow it up with He is this or that. Why is GOD referred to as a HE? Why not a SHE or an IT? What do you think GOD is exactly? Why do you think that?

oldmanhorrorfan because that's how a lot of us were raised to believe how god was to be percieved. Some may say HE sits up in the heavens wearing a crown of gold, in a thrown made of solid gold. I believe a lot of people got this reference of he from biblical scriptor that...

oldmanhorrorfan To me, I live in a little country town, and our mall is not very popular. The matinees are $2.50, and the evenings shows are 4 bucks. The movies are basic, we don't get to see the 3-D versions, and the films are censored, thanks to management.

oldmanhorrorfan If I was given the power to destroy something it would be violence. Reason why? To me violence is the cause and reason behind many people, races, nations, countries being put into harms way. If not violence then greed, envy, or maybe the knowledge of self...

oldmanhorrorfan You should sleep as long as you need to sleep. Meaning it doesn't run over and starts ruinning your social life. 7 hrs @ the most in my book, but that's just me.

Should the Twilight saga be considered Gothic?

KAikens318 @KAikens318 (1) • United States 6 Nov 09

We are having a debate in my gothic lit class and I thought I would get other people's opinions on the subject. Frankenstein, Dracula, the Castle of Otranto are all considered gothic novels because of their motifs such as...

oldmanhorrorfan I would consider the twilight saga a soap opera, flat out. It's now part of the vampire genre and will always be mentioned when this era gets brought up. Nothing wrong with that. Someone saw a way to make money and went with it. They can say all they want...
