Offended by Posers?

Discussion in 'General' started by Raoul II, Nov 19, 2007.

  1. Does anyone else get offended when people talk about drugs who you know dont use them? I walked into my school's lounge today and these 4 white girls were sitting on the couch listening to some really bad hip hop song about weed, I really wanted to say something. Then I have this friend who claims that Comfortably Numb is about acid, and when I explained to him why it isn't, he just says that its about some guy getting high and it doesnt matter what drug. Now that pissed me off. It's slander against one of the best songs on one of the best albums ever written.
     
  2. I can't be offeneded by myself. :p
     
  3. To each his own.

    To those that try too hard, maybe one day reality will bite them in the face.
     
  4. What if I called you a bitch? :p



    Just kidding, but it kinda pisses me off when I hear people talk about things they have no idea bout, and with the people I know it's most of the things that come out of their mouths.

    I just try to ignore the ignorant.
     
  5. Now-a-days it's kind of hard to tell posers from non-posers. I feel like one from time to time. I feel I'm only 100% truthful about who I am when I'm alone, I often feel I'm just a reflection of other folk's perception of me. But, when it comes down to it, I try to stand true to my beliefs, under any circumstance. Oh, I also can't stand when ignorant people hold such strong beliefs about things they know nothing about.
     
  6. At least the blatantly ignorant are obvious and they can be dealt with accordingly.
     
  7. ya, I know what you are talking about. You can't argue that Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds isn't about lsd though. I hate it that people thinking smoking weed is called tripping. I only once smoked myself to that point. The visuals were however, very fucked up. It was obviously sativa.
     
  8. As far as that goes, I'm pretty sure the Beatles themselves argued that it wasnt about LSD...
     
  9. The Beatles did argue that it wasn't about LSD.
    True.
    But, whatever.
    We're allowed to interpret things how we please.
    In every drug song collaboration for download it is usually included..but if it's about a painting then why does everyone reference it to acid?
    Well, because it's too damn similar not to make a connection.

    Back to the issue on hand..
    Yes, I feel the same way.
     

  10. What IS comfortably numb about? I have a few Floyd albums but damnit if I don't know what any of them are about :smoking:
     
  11. It's about illness.
     

  12. Oh? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comfortably_numb woah.

    I mean I love Pink Floyd and they make my mind spiral but I never really paid attention to what the lyrics were saying, they just became a part of the whole of the music, undifferentiated, if you know what I mean?
     
  13. COmfortably numb is about heroin imo. But to each his own, I dont give two shits what anyone else says, It's all about what I have going on, as long as I have a smart head on my shoulders at the tyime, I'm straight
     
  14. what? posers?

    if you smoke pot, how are you a poser. a poser is pretending to be something. if you smoke pot-you smoke pot. I don't listen to any of the classic rock bands on a regular basis, and I think comfortably numb is just another old song.


    does that make me a poser?

    if anything it makes me not your typical pot smoker.


    edit: maybe if someone wears t shirts with pot leaves on it but never even tried it. then ok i see your point
     
  15. I tend to ignore idiots like that. But sometimes it gets really frustrating. But I cnt really say anything though. Cuz we all used to be silly and childish and brag about things we think we know.
     
  16. I got into an argument with a group of hiphop shwag smoking fools about weed being the countrys cash crop(They insisted it was all imported) and they thought you could overdose on weed and die
     
  17. All I gotta say is, Dextromethorphan. :hello:
     
  18. Lol no one said ppl are posers for smoking weed. He was talkin about some dumb girls listening to a rap song about weed when they obviously dont even smoke. But i guess you can still read a little bit...
     
  19. no i could honestly care less
     
  20. Ya why would you judge those who act like they do? Because if you think about it, then that makes you a poser too.
