Oooh boy! It’s been a while hasn’t it, folks?
Well I’ve just been trolled, and I’m here to share! I’m not an actor, if you’re rich, and my lack of celeb-trivia is testament to the fact!
(Formatting added for emphasis, everything was plain-text in chat.)

Music not really a good topic to talk to me about. I typically hate it. I find it to be distracting.
For the most part, now that I think about it, I just hate to listen. This extends further than simply lack of musical taste, however, into other areas. I prefer older games with written dialog (or even older games with no dialog at all) so I can mute the fucker, I prefer foreign films because when I download them illegally they come with subtitles, and silent films because… duh.
And this was because I find music distracting from whatever I’m trying to pay attention to. If I’m playing a game, I’m trying to kill things. If I’m watching a movie, I like to be able to think about the plot, or appreciate the choreography. To establish the necessity for this as clearly as possible: Resident Evil, Memento, Buster Keaton. I’ll get into why I hate attempts at storytelling in video games another time. Suffice to say that the voice in my head doesn’t speak loudly and does not like being spoken over.
However, lately it seems this voice has quieted. No longer merely a rambling whisper, it seems to have silenced entirely. The angry, critical inner-Editor-in-Chief has apparently stepped down. I’m much more at ease, and unfortunately much stupider than I once was.
Which means I can now enjoy some tunes.
I’ve started by downloading a bunch of discographies, and listening to albums through once, saving only the songs that are immediately of interest to me on the first listen.
Thus begins the “First Listen” portion of my iPod finally getting used for something other than porn.
