Electronic Music 411 - can someone explain this to me?

atum said: "ha! i spent a week in staten island last summer. the dudes there and ,new jersey all look like that. amazingly even when you think that they are the dumbiest ever, then you hear them talk"

I just want to clear this up - I am from NJ and I am not like that. At all. I'd estimate it's about... 25% of males aged 16-30 that are "guido". Then its 50% "emo" and 25% "normal".

there's probably 20 videos of 'normal' NJ peeps on youtube making fun of 'guidos' so there is a healthy um.. anti-guido comedy insurgency alive in kicking in NJ.

so let me get this straight,
I shouldn't hold a persons actions and views against them?
remember to speak nicely about hitler, then.

I can't believe the bullshit notion that
" a culture can do no wrong, and you're a racist if you say otherwise."

Cultural relativism blows

cultural relativism is a good thing when used correctly.

BTW, i have no problem with protecting their rights to act retarded. that desn't mean i don't wish they'd stop.

yeah well i never get it right.
that read way too soapboxy and self righteous.

what i meant to say was
"YAY! GEEKS BASH BACK"

or, i dunno.
i just find it sad is all.

Considering that for a large part of my life, I have been given shit from tossers who look those fucktards, I consider it my right, nay, MY DUTY to ridicule the fuck out of those in life who think acting and looking like a cunt is the cool thing to do.
