Smoking infects the armenian community. Every single man in my family smokes besides me (yes, every single one). Like I listen to that song and think about these fucking white people smoking Turkish camel cigarettes and I wholly feel Daron's pain from the loss of culture.

I’m not, I recognise a lot of SoaD’s allusions to the Armenian community but I did not know this. I always assumed that they were simply talking about people who move to Hollywood to try and make it and end up sucking Weinstein dick. Thanks for the new insight!

When people are asked to name their favourite song they usually come up with something that they feel a deep resonance with. It’s a very personal thing and they have it separated in their mind from most of the music they listen to. You most likely can’t use that song as an indicator of their general taste, but even if you could, who are you to judge these people?
I think this place has made your brain sick. You’d quicker shit on people than lay out your own vulnerabilities. Learn to be nicer to people and in turn you will feel happier and perceive the world to be a better place

You are the same as those people who coat their own insecurities with layers of irony. by shitting on others you try to validate yourself. you are too insecure to post reasons why you think their taste is shit, afraid your opinions will be shit on by others like you.

music is one of the most ineffable thing there is. I don't know practically nothing to say about it. You can either try to imitate it as did Joyce in Nausicaa and some parts of Finnegans Wake, or try to make up something new from it and starts to write songs
