Moon Man's been a huge Genesis fan since their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, he really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent.

No, that's not what I meant. I was referring to your comment on my reasoning only.<br /><br />I am unaware of why you think of her writing as mediocre. Might it be related to any ideological disagreements? Have you read any of her books?<br /><br />Are you talking about collecting social security and/or medicare? She paid into the system through taxes. It is only fair that one gets the money they put in back, especially since it was forcibly taken in the first place.<br /><br />Smoking was not one of her wiser decisions.<br /><br />I am not actually an anti-intellectual. Neither was she. What I am against is the elite western intellectual culture. The kind that worships power and hates the common man, desiring domination over him/her. I suggest you read up on Noam Chomsky, who had similar arguments.<br /><br />The concept of Galt's Gulch may seem radical to you, but America was founded on people who rejected their old countries to come to this one. One could argue that America was made by millions of John Galts.

In and of itself, your argument is correct. However, your analogies are not so good. Teenyboppers like Justin Bieber. Kids like Garfield. Complete losers like meth. Mostly adults and some teens like Ayn Rand's books. A great many of them are successful and intelligent.<br /><br />To top it off, they have to get beyond a great deal of peer pressure as well as snobs from the intellectual class telling them that they are bad people or that Rand was a bad person or some other stupid bullshit. Want to know why intellectuals hate Rand? Because she essentially exposes the great fraud they have upon society, that society does not need them to push them around. Society can benefit from suggestions, but not government bullying.<br /><br />And that's just secular intellectuals. The religious jerks, for obvious reasons hate her too. Baloney always fears the slicer.

God max and let's say 4chan totally undermined the intellectual integrity that made YTMND the outstandingly funny and relevant website it was back then<br /><br /><br />[i]this is what you mourn why do you mourn still[/i]

So basically, your defense is that in order for something to be racist, it has to be negative and/or hateful and/or ridiculing. Can't racism just result from plain ignorance? I do see what you mean about there being a difference between racism and racial stereotyping, but that doesn't change much for me. I don't find either to be very acceptable on its own.<br /><br />You have to make the very topic of racism the joke, not the actual content of racism. I thought your site about Asian baseball players was a fantastic demonstration of this. It played on a seemingly American stereotyping of Asians in such a way that the stereotyping perspective was the joke rather than Asians. In this site, I don't really see that.<br /><br />I think a better argument would be that you were contrasting the elements of the well-spoken, intellectual girl from Bill Nye with the crude stereotyping from long ago. Perhaps you could convince us that this was somehow satirical, that it actually had a point. Otherwise, it's just an out-of-the-way punchline that can only be funny because of just how out of the way it is. I suppose that's fine, but I'm sure there's plenty of other options you could have taken to get that effect.

Circ, Jesus was a libertarian? I guess that depends what Christian or Christopher Hitchens you ask. Some assert that because of Paul, he was quite authoritarian. Also, one could argue that he was an accomplice to a celestial dictator, or more accurately - threatened that you only need to swear allegiance to him to glean favor from that tyrant in the sky. What kind of sincere libertarian threatens you will eternal hellfire for disobedience?<br /><br />Also Lego, how can you say that Christianity was a corpse back in the 1950's? That's like saying football is a corpse in Texas. To this very day, most Americans and many Europeans are still Christian. In the 1950's, it was not only bigger percentage-wise, but the beliefs per Christian was much more potent. Atheism was next to unheard of in those days, while atheism, while bigger today only comprises 1 to 2% in 2011. So your statement on Christianity has no factual basis.<br /><br />That is, unless you meant that Christianity was discredited among intellectuals in the 1950s. I am skeptical of even that. Bertrand Russel might have been an open atheist, but you can probably count noteworthy people who spoke against Christianity in those days who were not communist with one hand.<br /><br />Also, you claimed that the philosophical community said that she was logically unsound. However, you did not provide their line of reasoning. Sorry. I need some evidence. I do not accept Argumentum ad verecundiam type answers.

what a vivid imagination you have. <br /><br />Too bad you don't use it to post original content. Instead you post direct rips and break copyright law. <br /><br />Seeing all the the intellectual property you stole from people with much more talent than you, then post it on a has been website and try to pass it off as your own original work.... wow, no wonder you're some 40 year old loser who sits at home all day collecting disability. Your life must be awesome.

sorry for the Hassan audio before, it was just too silly for the terrible tragedy that happened to this wonderful young girl. I decided to give YTMND a fresh, well educated perspective instead in the form of an intellectual with a spine of steel

Squaresoft failed miserably at life here. What they should've done is bought out the Chrono Resurrection project out and allowed the creators to finish developing it for Windows PCs. Then SS could've had them port it over to the Xbox, Sony Playstation 2 & Nintendo GameCube (or Xbox 360, Sony Playstation 3 & Nintendo Wii, depending on development time), and maybe even the Nintendo DS (though the original has been ported to the DX by now) and Sony PSP. Admittedly, SS had intellectual property to protect, but they could have made a ton of money on this game. Killing this 3D version made no sense whatsoever.<br /><br />WHY KILL IT? BUY IT!!!

I used to eat Elmer's Glue in the 4th Grade, which was intellectually engaging for me at the time. i think.

when i was in about 4th grade i hid in the bushes outside my house and sprayed passing cars with my super-soaker. i thought it was a really funny, bad thing i was doing. i suppose it might have been a little dangerous, but mostly i'm sure it was a minor distraction for drivers.<br /><br />[i]what was that? huh...[/i]<br /><br />seems pretty similar to this whole site spamming stuff, doesn't it?<br />it also seems like my water gun playtime was about as intellectually engaging.

hey lickit, say whatever you want about me, but leave LSD out of this. as far as philosophical shortcuts go, it deserves your respect. <br /><br />"i'm proud of the site and even prouder of the low effort that went into actually making it." you may not recall, but i've said before: your comments on other people's sites often point out their structural elements and deride their use of formula. i did the same, and you call it mocking and mean-spirited. and if you haven't made all your mean-spirited and mocking comments in one place, it's only because you spread them out. oh well, so it goes. <br /><br />i really believe that i like you and your sites more than you do. you are one of a handful of users that make this place worth visiting. sorry if you're so insecure that you find my ramblings to be "intellectual" and think they need to be knocked down a peg or two. (i only made the comment about your literacy bc usually you respond with "didn't read") stop confusing your sense of subtlety with cynicism and sarcasm, and you'll be fine.<br /><br />and do i contradict myself? then i contradict myself. ... i contain multitewds. so suck my contradictions, and take it if you're going to dish it out.<br /><br />u mad? nah, we cool.

@lego<br />i am not "most proud" of that dumb star trek site and yes i told a handful of nerd friends about it because that dumb joke is one of those rare ytmnd occurrences where an average, non-ytmnd internet person might understand whats going on. and i happen to have made it. i might also point out that i cannot recall a single other place on the internet where i overzealously posted more contradicting, mocking and mean spirited comments in one place.<br /><br />but we know you have a problem with subtlety, which is why nearly all of your "intellectual" blocks of text seem like they came from a twenty-three-year-old college "super senior" who just discovered lsd and habitually internalizes flat out incoherence as some pretentious level of high art.<br /><br />[i]subtle joke[/i]: i just viewed one of your 20 weekly sites, and was surprised to notice it was a montage with sound clips thrown together.

face it, your act is boring, it proves no intellectual property whatsoever, and not in a millions of years your sites would be considered classic due to uploading shitty things no one likes on ytmnd. face it, your shooting in the dark, just face it!

The American right is intellectual bankrupt but that doesn't matter when you have fear and hatred on your side.

true story. intellectual, my growth has been stunted by school/college. All college does is mold and sort people for the modern economy.

personally (and more abstractly ideologically) i think it comes down to two definitions: that of people and power. if you are seen as less of a person (as in the case of women, minorities, foreigners, rivers, robots, etc), then the material conditions of your existence can be threatened wo compunction. and nothing will be done about it until power is no longer considered in terms of controlling a given limited resource (even intellectual resources) but rather redefined as the ability to bring people together. anyway, lol.

sorry, but i really don't feel like directly responding to this. what really just turned me off was your whole talk of order > chaos, which is the most painfully broad and vague concept to support and argument.<br /><br />it's like i was standing in mud and i realized there's no definable barrier between the matter that i understand as me and the matter i understand as mud. the universe is just all mud. we're all just mud, man.<br /><br />you also seem to be trying to bring my exact words back into some long winded discussion of what a "trend," instead of interpreting what you believe i am saying and responding directly.<br /><br />or maybe youre just trying to post some quasi-intellectual joke comment that never tries to touch on anything coherent. sorry.

Are you sure you didn't mean to put the Declaration of Independence? 90% Tea baggers don't know the difference between the two. I know these because I’ve gone to tea parties and asked people questions and to no avail for their cause 99% have no clue what their talking about.<br /><br />Tea baggers are the dumbest of America. The represent the most closed minded mislead microcosm of the intellectual bankrupt conservatives in America.<br /><br />They protest Obama raising taxes when in fact he has lowered taxes for almost the complete majority of them.<br /><br />They protest the expansion of government but were silent when Reagan and Bush expanded the government more than any other president since FDR and they even go as far as to demi-god both of these former presidents despite their so called “distrust of government”(Which only applies when a Democrat is in office)<br /><br />The restriction of 2nd Amendment (Which 99% don‘t understand). Where nothing has happened.<br /><br />Other than continuing the warrant less NSA domestic spying program where has Obama violated the Constitution? Try reading and its secondary documents as opposed to regurgitating what you are inundated by conservative pundits on television, internet, and am radio.<br /><br />This is exactly the type of partisan stupidity that is killing any chance of a better future for our country. Would you have made this for George W. too?<br /><br />I know this will fall on deaf ears because the only thing now days a so called “conservative” holds dearly on to is the opinions and world views given to them by their political puppeteers. Many liberals have the same problem however it is not endemic in liberal communities.

That was pretty petty. It was my own way of being secretly mischievous, apparently you were wise to my game.<br /><br />I don't really care about the minus'd comments. I don't spend my time looking over my ytmnd stats. To be honest I'm surprised you noticed. I'll change them all to 5's if you ask nicely. Or if you like you can 1 all my sites. There's not that many of them and they aren't that good anyway. That is of course if you haven't done it already. If you have, then why don't you open up an alternate account and do it again?<br /><br />But seriously dude? I'm "hiding behind a veiled pretense of intellectual curiosity and sharing"? For someone calling out another for not getting a joke (I admit it), you do seem to have a problem grasping sarcasm.

are you sure it wasn't after some passive aggressive question showing your own ignorance of a couple different (albeit bad) throwaway jokes followed by a link to show that you're not really asking a question at all but rather acting like a condescending doosh who's hiding behind a veiled pretense of intellectual curiosity and sharing? nah, just kidding, you're alright. relax.

At some point beyond Kindergarten, when kids are taught that their aimless scribblings are art, the anti-intellectual seed planted by some unknown 'real Americans' tells a large number of people that art is a sub-category of art, and that it is something which someone has to decide is art - not they themselves, of course,
