Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Let's Not Get Carried Away. Thanks That wasn't so hard now was it. I figured it was something I should know. My guess is that my humor will improve with a lessening of the pain I am currently experiencing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BigWheeledWagon Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 LNGCA... LNGCA Congratulations. You have just pushed one of my pet peeve buttons. (Please excuse the following rant, but my neck and knee are hurting, I didn't get much sleep last night, and you won the 'piss off crow lottery'.) So...LNGCA isn't ringing any bells. So, I go to the iPod to pull up my wilco albums...none match. LNGCA...Is it really that hard to type the song name? Or is it some sort of key to hipness to know or invent acronyms for every song, every album, every name, every venue...?What is being done here is exclude me (and other acronymally challenged board members) from a reasonably interesting and enjoyable thread.Like I noted above...I hope my tone isn't too pissed off. It's been a really tough couple of weeks. Sorry to hear you're having a rough time. ANYWAY, I don't know that I've ever gotten actively upset at acronym usage, but I wanted to confess that I, too, have struggled with this terrible affliction of being "acronymally challenged." When I first joined the board, I remember being completely confused at the use of "IAATRBYH," even though I had just gone to see that movie. It should have been completely obvious, but had it not been for the context surrounding the usage that gave it away, I would have puzzled over it for hours. The funny thing is, I'm usually pretty good with reading comprehension, word games, etc. Just thought I'd I offer you some support. You're not alone. I'm not sure I would agree that anyone is trying to exclude those of us with this little-known condition from the conversation, but it does sometimes feel as if "speakers are speaking in code."

I have had to scramble to look at the back of a CD to find out what song people are talking about. About converting a metal head to Wilco....Isn't there that line about "don't throw your pearls at swine", haha? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lynch Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Actually, I think the line is "to each his own."I was just joking around. I like alot of metal and harder stuff too, like White Zombie, Rage Against The Machine, older Metallica, Motorhead. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I like alot of metal and harder stuff too, like White Zombie, Rage Against The Machine, older Metallica, Motorhead. I'm not affraid to admit my love for the heavy stuff too.. Man, White Zombie was awesome in their day.. Love Rage of course (especially their first album), and old Metallica.. No need to even comment on them.. Legends... If you have a chance, check out the band "Cave In".. Their album "Jupitor" is just brilliant.. It's not all completely heavy.. Sort of Alternative/Hardcore or something.. Great band..

I can be ornery myself. I am one of those brooding artistic types......In my avatar that is David Lynch, the director/super cool film and sometimes TV guy. He is best known for Twin Peaks (the TV mini series), Blue Velvet, and a few more gems. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cash Posted January 23, 2008 Author Share Posted January 23, 2008 Thanks for the help, I just burned a whole lotta shit from KTV and threw, LNGCA (lets not get carried away ) in there for good measure. It's not that important that they fall in love with it, but in my mind liking wilco is inevitable, might as well smooth the transition everybody see's the light eventually... ... somebody respond: "what light?"

froggie Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 you could always lie to them and play Train, That Year, Flatness and Gun, and say its Wilco! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ChooChooCharlie Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 I would definitely go with EW from SBS which was recorded at the L in the CHI in the state of IL (you can get there by taking the EL).................now I'm just getting carried away. Cause, you know -- it rocks -- and maybe they love wilco, maybe they don't. Either they will or they won't. If that doesn't work, build up your musical cred by telling them the band Train's earlier stuff is really kickass, and you broke your hand during a beatdown at a Maroon 5 mosh pit.
