Unpopular opinion time (super alpha no pony edition)

@Myoozik  
I was mostly just joking with my reaction, but ok.

@Myoozik  
Fair enough.
 
As for Birdemic, I think the first half is pretty darn terrible, but once the birds arrive, that’s when it becomes entertainingly bad.

Pineapple on pizza is delicious.

I get a kick out of the one character that sounds like he’s talking with two dicks in his mouth.
 
“Souular paaanals”

@Silent_Witness  
Excuse me what

@TheHappySpaceman  
I disagree with you that pineapple on pizza is delicious, but I eat BBQ chicken pizza, so the last position I’m in is to judge you.

Participatory culture is a mistake and is wholly embraced because people mistakenly believe that everyone can be everything but it’s wrong, the average people is exactly that: average and participatory culture made painfully average people believe they can be everything and unfairly journalist,artists,critics,philosophs or in the worse case that they have the authority to do justice themselves.When everyone think they are special,no one is  
Consumer culture is unfairly decried as being passive when there is nothing wrong in being passive and accepting that you just want to consume products and get excited for the next as the overused spammed meme claim

I couldn’t stand the birds, they kept squawking every single fucking second and it was driving me crazy. If it wasn’t for that audio torture, I would’ve definitely agreed with you there on it being entertainingly bad.

@Background Pony #1D54
 
I don’t think this has anything to do with what you claimed - you probably could find conceited amateurs even in the 17th century.

Power ballads aren’t all that bad. Some of them are pretty corny and softballs, like some of the later glam metal ones, but the song style isn’t inherently bad, and many bands, like Avenged Sevenfold, can still make kickass power ballads. (See: “Acid Rain,” “Seize the Day”)

@TheHappySpaceman  
I just hate hearing them over and over and over like theres no other songs ever made.  
Related note, at work today I heard Queen’s Radio Ga Ga.  

@Dex Stewart  
So what? It’s not the songs’ fault.
 
Also, what station are you listening to that plays that much Avenged Sevenfold? Because I kinda wanna listen to it.

@TheHappySpaceman  
I Meant 80’s power ballads.  
It’s like they have one 80’s best of glam metal cd that they just play over and over. If they played Avenged Sevenfold that would at the very least show variety. But store music is allergic to variety. For some reason repetitive in-store music makes me mad.

I stand by my belief that Queen’s Disco phase was cringe. They were too old for it in the 80s

@Dex Stewart  
There are still some very good power ballads. “Rodeo,” “If I Die Tomorrow,” and “Home Sweet Home” by Mötley Crüe; “I Remember You” and “In a Darkened Room” by Skid Row; “Wheel in the Sky” and “Who’s Crying Now” by Journey; “Guiding Light” by Muse; “Silent Lucidity” and “Anybody Listening?” by Queensrÿche; “Dream On” by Aerosmith… Just because some of these ballads are overplayed doesn’t mean they’re bad.
 
@Don’t  
It was only one album at least. And I don’t think the album itself deserved to flop as hard as it did; I think fans were just reeling because the anti-disco backlash was still fresh on everyone’s minds in 1982. The album had some good songs, too, like “Back Chat” and “Calling All Girls,” for example.

@TheHappySpaceman
 
I’d add Total Eclipse of the Heart and Still Loving You to that list.
 
And on that subject, i wonder if I Am Love would count as one, though on a completely different tip. Granted, the fact that there it features more of a sudden change than a transition might diqualify it…

@TheHappySpaceman  
Kiss and Rolling Stones did better Disco albums anyway

@TheHappySpaceman  
I’m probably pissed because I’ve heard some of these damn songs so often, it’s hard to enjoy them any more. Thanks alot,grocery store for ruining Poison for me.

@TheHappySpaceman  
Literally you can say that for any genre

@Myoozik  
Sure, but I just don’t know why power ballads or metal ballads in general get singled out when they aren’t inherently bad and many can be good.
 
Is this yet another thing we can blame on Euronymous? Dude ruined metal music in many ways.

@TheHappySpaceman
 
Tyr did an a couple of awesome power ballads.

@TheHappySpaceman
 
Probably not.

@TheHappySpaceman  
Euronymous did nothing wrong

@Don’t  
Euronymous inspired a whole generation of metal snobbery over what is or isn’t “true” metal.

@TheHappySpaceman  
That already existed before he even started a band
