Always make sure to check your disk drives for errors before you have issues

Or in other words:

You best filesystem check yourself before you filesystem wreck yourself.

They didn’t want to open a portal to hell via a spirit of ~~shit~~

They think metal is all about devil and demon and hell.

Metal in reality: i'll make a journey and find this holy sword to defeat evil and uphold justice.

Alternatively: I'm a dwarf and i digging a hole.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I listen to metal with themes of "my life has go so horribly wrong and all i know is pain" and "hot goth vampire girls". Sometimes both at the same time.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 days ago

Metal is EVIL!!!! Also metal- 30min prog rock song about the singers devoted mother dying and going to haven to get her wings

And then there is a 91 year old Christopher Lee that is singing about his Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Great Grandfather, Charlemagne.

No, I'm not joking.

It's wonderful how misunderstood a lot of the 'evil' metal bands are. Bands like Cradle of Filth and Cattle Decapitation have ostensibly repulsive artwork and song titles/lyrics, but the themes and meaning behind the songs meander between tongue-in-cheek fun to philosophical pondering to outright castigation of humanity's treatment of the natural world. Judging a book by its cover and all that stuff...

Then again, there's Behemoth, who literally describe summoning demons and other pagan and satanic rites in their songs. But good grief, the music is so good.

The origins of metal have more moral correctness than the "Christian" US. Scroll all the way back to 1970, "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath. Song very plainly and literally about the corruption of the political establishment and the evil of war. That undercurrent never went away, all the way to the present.

It’s opening a portal to hell.

Oh god.

Oh god no.

One of the demons got loose!

No! Don't ask him about his private jet!

Goddamnit.

Now we've got to reboot Buffy.

I got a temporary suspension on that R-word site that shall not be named for using the word "retard" in the context of refrigerating bread to slow the development of mold and there was no way to contest it.

So, with that sort of shit going on all over the internets, I give folks a little grace these days when it comes to self-censorship.

Damn, American conservatives are weird as fuck.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 days ago

This is why I hate religion. It turned this person's brain to mush. If you are willing to believe a man walked on water why would it be hard to believe the bullshit Trump spews out?

Religion removes your critical thinking skills making you a prime target for con artists.

did anyone find out what metal they were listening to? 👀 asking for a friemd

[–] [email protected] 20 points 5 days ago (3 children)

I don't like metal. But if it rips portals open, I'll start listening anyway.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago

Rip & Tear!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Do they have to be ripped? Can metal not simply caress them open?

I thought I didn't like metal. A 91 year old Christopher Lee made me reevaluate that stance

https://youtu.be/0eeRBh7fiQ4

I can actually understand him singing it

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (5 children)

what you want to listen to is called power metal. they have amazing vocals and epic riffs evoking heroism and glory.

if you're interested in a journey, try Iced Earth - Dante's Inferno. it's like 9 songs in one. you can tell what it's about from the title.

If anyone's curious, it's Psalm 69 by Minestry.

My dad is a born-again Christian and he threw out all his Black Sabbath records when he (re)converted. I started listening to classic metal in college, and I eventually had to ask my dad... "You threw out this? This is some of the lyrically-mildest stuff I've ever listened to." He just kinda shrugged, and admitted that he overreacted a bit, but this is still 100% the way lots of the evangelicals I grew up with think about anything that's not explicitly marketed as "Christian."

[–] [email protected] 13 points 4 days ago

God damnit, I've spent all this time listening to metal and still haven't gotten my portal yet??!?

[–] ayyy 8 points 4 days ago

You have to use an LP and play it backwards for the portals to open or else it won't work.

Wait, does that mean that Doom 2016 is based on true events, then? Because the H E A V Y M E T A L always plays when a portal opens up with loads of demons!

Slayer is a Christian band, just saying.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 days ago

If you're into Satan, you're subscribing to Christian concepts. An atheist does not believe in God and in extension, Satan does not exist either.

Are they like a knock-off version of Stryper?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

What does the guy need in his life? There's a glitch with the photo that cuts off right when he says. Did anyone follow-up and ask him what he needed?
