If you look closely, you'll see why this very smart scholarly LARP from King Bazinga pisses me off so much. (hexbear.net)

I'm a former English teacher. You don't need to be an English teacher, however, to know THE ILIAD AND THE ODYSSEY ARE TWO DISTINCTLY SEPARATE STORIES.

This lying fuck did a wikipedia search of "the classics" and wants smart people points for name-dropping THE WRONG FUCKING NAME.

He hasn't read either. At best he's seen a bunch of bleached Hellenistic statue avatars on the internet and nodded along to their RETVRN prattling. biggus-dickus

Ever meet that annoying kid in grade school that said "I am very smart. I know that E Equals Em Cee Squared!" young-sheldon Fifty years later, one of those became my-hero

melon-musk "I love this new genre of music I've invented called 'Hustlegrindcore' which is just audiobooks played back so fast that they become a background whine. But you can still say you read the book! Like, I read Infinite Jest in 3.5 minutes last night, it was great!"

I imagine it would pretty much just turn into extratone/splitter but without any underlying rhythmic structure since the sentence lengths would all be different

Wait so it would just be noise probably since extratone is pretty much all about converting rhythm to pitch by going extremely fast and not having regular rhythms undergirding it would just make noise

There's a guy who goes by CHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOPCHOP and he hooks up a bucket full of metal objects and smashes it through some kind of audio equipment. You're not making it sound bad to me

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
