Ok, so it's a 90% equivalence. Green republicans become ents. Other republicans become dwarves, digging too greedily and too deep.

Zak S, Zak Smith, Dndwithpornstars, Zak Sabbath. He is a terrible person and a hack at writing and art. His cultural contributions are less than Justin Bieber's, and he's a shitmuffin. Go go gadget Googlebomb!

That song's not really dubstep. Sure, there's seven seconds of wubwubwub (the full 3:21 song linked in the description does that twice, for a whopping fourteen seconds), but nothing else about that song is dubstep at all.
The percussion in dubstep is slow (yes, really) and irregular. Dubstep comes from 2-step, and 2-step only has a kick drum on beats 1 and 3 instead of on all four beats. That makes it feel slow and tense. To keep it interesting, you use lots of rhythm tricks: you throw in offbeats. You hold notes longer than usual. You use triplets (or other weird irrational beat divisions). You put the accent on unexpected beats. (Irregular time-keeping like this also helps to build tension. Dubstep is really not relaxing music. I can understand why people don't like it.) Throw in a bassline, and you have 2-step and some really early dubstep, depending on what the percussion sounds like specifically. Dubstep is also slightly higher BPM, I believe.
Now, where dubstep starts to truly differentiate itself is when it introduces these synthetic extended bass notes with that vibrating quality (WUBWUBWUB; though, it's not always that heavy). If dubstep sounds fast to you, this is why; if you listen past this to the song's actual percussion, you'll find there's barely any there. Most of the 'energy' is coming from these synthetically oscillating bass notes. Of course, there's dubstep that doesn't do this at all (especially really early dubstep, it's characterized by its particular style of percussion, which is slightly distinct from 2-step), but all dubstep has a very unorthodox rhythm.
The song in the link is absolutely nothing like that at all. The percussion is totally orthodox and traditional. There's no irregular rhythm. Outside of the fourteen seconds of wubwubwub, there's none of those bass notes at all. Most of the song is the same two measures repeating over and over.

Seing this, I always remember a Dinosaurs episode where Earl gets to create shows for TV and one of his ideas is "box full of puppies".Stahlseele wrote:And suddenly, the world ain't as bad anymore . .

That's it, in the 90s, "box full of puppies" was some TV writer's idea of what the show's resident Homer Simpson could think as an awesome program. In the 2010s, "box full of puppies" probably gets 20 million views on youtube.

"But transportation issues are social-justice issues. The toll of bad transit policies and worse infrastructure—trains and buses that don’t run well and badly serve low-income neighborhoods, vehicular traffic that pollutes the environment and endangers the lives of cyclists and pedestrians—is borne disproportionately by black and brown communities."

Dated, but kind of informative in parts. Makes me think about modern, non-print media practices.

Defeat every opponent in Skyrim with your fists. (Profanity, Misogyny) It reminded me of Lago's old goal of winning D&D with a monk, unfortunately narrated by a madman.

He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.

Well, given that's already what every Sonic game does now (introduce a palette swap of Sonic who is a secret project/time traveler/whatever or some other character we don't give a damn about) I think this parody is 10 years too late.

I loved the rendition of Drunken Whaler and was very happy that the band lets you freely download the mp3 of it. Been listening to it often today and as I type. =-D
Ooo! Shiny!
Thanks!
