Originally posted by Ishkur I've never once advocated exclusion of sub-cultural social tribes from the masses. But I have advocated, MANY MANY MANY times in MANY MANY MANY rants, essays and articles, that we should NOT DUMB OURSELVES DOWN FOR THEIR BENEFIT. We are what we are. We should not kow-tow, we should not dilute, we should not water down, we should not soften our image, our style, our morality, the very existence of our identity, for the sake of mass acceptance. To do so is an abomination and a betrayal of what we are here for.

if trance didn't "dumb" down in 98-99 TA would never have existed in the first place...im sure swamper feels the same way

well the issues and controversy surrounding this will definately boost up his site ratings

I think this is hilarious.

The mere fact that people are reacting to Ishkur's list means that it has achieved its purpose. If people didn't take everything so seriously, maybe they could appreciate the irony and humour that is behind it.

Lighten up people!


This reminds me of a situation the other night. I was out with my sister and some friends. Someone told a hilarious joke and everyone was laughing their ass off, but then one of my sister's friends was like "THAT'S
DISGUSTING! HOW COULD YOU SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT!" Maybe if she wasn't such an uptight bitch and she didn't take everything so seriously, she could appreciate the joke for what it was: a joke.

Yes, that does make sense ... if ONLY this was a joke. And its not. At least thats not why people are laughing on this thread.

Is it still a joke if it ain't funny?
