@Flinstone dear, I wrote: In my opinion, being Punk is the attitude one has towards society and life in general, a way of being irreverent and nihilistic towards others and oneself. It’s a typically youthful phenomenon that finds followers among the ranks of young people, often unemployed, frustrated, certainly angry and lacking ideals, who form in the fertile humus of the suburbs and in the underclass in general, but also, to a lesser extent, among "respectable" families... this can be understood as an attitude, or if you prefer, an orientation towards life and society. In the review, I didn't use the word attitude, but I meant AlessioIRIDE's term in this sense. As for prominent figures, I mentioned several. Where it originates and develops, I wrote... in the basements and suburbs, referring to Garage Rockers, who essentially had a very similar approach to life as the Punks. You can talk about the geographical areas, you could even write another review about Punk, so people understand better. But perhaps it’s better if you write about Mozart, which seems more in your wheelhouse.

@Flinstone, I'm going out for half an hour now, but feel free to respond. Please quote the parts where you see sloppiness in the review; I ask you to be precise, you can even copy and paste.

@Flinstone, I wrote: Eddie Cochran, listen to his "Something Else" and "C'mon Everybody" that Sid Vicious reinterpreted by singing them roughly, while in his underwear. (It's been thirty years, so I might remember wrong, it could be "My Way")... Well, I wrote myself that I might remember incorrectly, 30 years is a long time. Moreover, during that period I was sending the reviews without breaking them into sections, because they were the first ones. The point I wanted to emphasize was: punk is an attitude, not music. Determining where punk originates is like determining when man shot his first load... agreeing with what alessioIRIDE wrote. Besides this nonsense, where do you see all the sloppiness you talk about?

@@alessioIRIDE, I share your opinion when you write: punk is an attitude, not music. Determining where punk originated is like figuring out when man first had a wank... it's pretty much the same concepts I've expressed in my review of All That Punk. Sorry for the self-citation.

Alright, let's leave it at that.

You wrote a long piece about intellectuals, but you didn’t answer any of the questions I was asking. They are three easy questions, so to help a dolt like me who doesn’t understand, explain it like you would to a 10-year-old. N 1 What does it mean... Look, life is malevolent in its essence and for everyone? N 2 Why do you think... Does laughter come from despair or stupidity? N 3 Why did you write... @bubi: but enough with the poor woman!!! I don’t like that we only see this aspect of Marilyn! Look, life is malevolent in its essence and for everyone. You should have written, @bjorky: but enough with the poor woman!!! I don’t like, etc. etc... I just echoed one of her comments, the second one to be precise. You read the comments, you get the email because it’s your review. (I’m sorry for bringing up bjorky who has nothing to do with this)

@happypippo, write: we are born without knowing why and we die; if all goes well, we die in bed. Laughter comes from despair or stupidity. The first part is a cliché that has nothing to do with: life is malignant in its very essence and for everyone... I expected you to clarify why you wrote it. The second: Laughter comes from despair or stupidity, is another nonsensical statement. It sounds like a line from a penny philosopher, eager to spout nonsense. Do I believe in happiness? Of course I do, millions of people are happy; they are the ones who show their joy simply because they are glad to be alive. You are not obliged to answer me, but I know you will do so using your usual intellectual dialectic. Are you capable of writing simply? Without using ten words when three would suffice? Your writing style only detracts from clarity; simple is better.

@happypippo, it is unknown who the father was, the mother had mental disorders to the point of being hospitalized in a psychiatric facility. The consequence was that Norma's (Marilyn's) youth was nothing short of tragic. I borrowed a phrase from Bjorky, with which I completely agree. She found success later, but she was fragile and unhappy; at 36, she took her own life. Does that seem like the life of a lucky woman to you? That life is malevolent in its very essence and for everyone, seems to me to be a lot of nonsense, you're perfectly entitled to think that way. I wonder why, like nik, you chose happypippo.

MuffinMan, I want to add that even though I asked you for your list of favorite Zappa albums, it's because you said you own his entire discography. But I'm familiar with the early albums; I looked through my records and saw that I also have One Size Fits All and Bongo Fury. Unfortunately, they are all on vinyl, and I haven't listened to them in ages. However, lately, I've made up for it because I've already downloaded about fifty tracks.

Hi Bartleboom, you slipped my mind. I'm waiting for your next review.
