"If someone smoked a '2pack' of joints a day, they wouldn't survive 5 years." I am living proof that it's not true, and if by "pack" you mean "about twenty," then I have far exceeded that, and it's been at least 9 years. I had to stop that pace because my memory was seriously deteriorating, but I didn't die, and my memory came back once I cut down those crazy habits.

<< the smoke from marijuana contains four times more tar and condensate than that of tobacco, and in any case, both cannabis and tobacco smoke largely contain the same carcinogens and tumor promoters. >> It depends on which tobacco plant and which ganjah plant those who wrote what you read have analyzed. In the little books that circulate, both pro and con, I've read tons of bullshit comparisons that if you're not an expert, you can't understand how bullshit they are. The "pro" ones analyze little buds for thirteen-year-olds and use the phrase "a moderate use" comparing it to strong dark tobacco smoked at a pack a day, while those "against" analyze Bluebarry purple like Paris Hilton's phone, hydroponic cultivation with fertilizers and additives, with daily consumption of about 10 grams smoked with a bong versus 10 grams of medium tobacco smoked with a filter. Anyway, yes, ganjah isn't good for you. Sugar, salt, pork, and dairy products aren't good either. I'm in favor both for economic reasons and for individual freedom, but the bullshit I've read in the "legalize it" booklets is truly Oscar-worthy; soon they'll be saying it's multivitaminic, improves memory, and enhances athletic performance. From a pharmaceutical standpoint, it absolutely needs to be legalized without ifs and buts, also because they would use modified indicas to achieve extremely high THC content, which even if they ended up on the black market wouldn't be easily smokable, both due to the mechanics of the situation (I want to see how you crumble a ball of resin in the street in winter at 5 degrees) and because of the high you get: heavy sleepiness, no desire to talk even remotely on the horizon, and reasoning at the speed of Peter Griffin.

Beautiful, although the album was a bit of a disappointment since the split with Nebula had even better tracks than those by Glass & Co. Lameneshma (or however it's spelled) I've probably heard 300 times.

I wanted to feel it well, at the right moment, the right number of times. But again nothing: Ben Chasny alone doesn't resonate with me, the snack theory doesn’t leave me.

You really get hung up on minor things. First, you want to close sections that "have little artistic value" or "little usefulness" (this is what I understood from your request), and then you tell me that debaser is nice also because there are people who come just to tell jokes or just to read (what usefulness, what artistic value!). Now I agree with you: it is nice for that. But you don’t emphasize the fact that it was you who wanted to limit the issue, you wanted to close "useless" sections. I was disapproving your limitation, as a lover of all the different things that are here. You could have told me directly that you had said something stupid, instead you attempted the slow overturning of the situation. And then I’m the poor one, right? At least you’re happy for me, from censoring despot to great altruist. What nice things.

"Here it seems to me that you're the only one saying this crap." And Cornell, who although "young" is an editor, so working for the site he has the right to say whatever he pleases. Let me help you count: One plus one equals two, therefore, plural. "When you write this stuff, you're a clown." I know, my nickname is clear, and someone has to do it. "Then that means I can also say what I want!" Yes, you can say it. But I show up to tell you to shut up. I've been programmed for this. Like a damn antivirus, that first lets your computer get infected, and after it creates problems, tells you to delete it.

On Soulseek, you can find all the original albums, all the reissues, all the EPs, and all the compilations that include the EPs. I just checked, for example, you can find this record at 128, 192, 224, 320, and even in VBR. Take the 224, it's from a user I know who uses a serious program for the rip, it should sound good.

"Or can some people write certain things here while others cannot?" We've been telling you for three days, and you finally got there. Yes, that's exactly how it is: Here - like in all communities around the world - some can say certain things, while others - like you - cannot afford to.

“At a sound level, it has nothing to do with that fucking nu metal, believe me.” For me, yes, I don’t believe you. “Either you don't own 'Betty' and 'Aftertaste' or you need to change your system.” I own them, and I play them on the same system I use for this, and it's not a Sony compact on sale at Unieuro. I'm not saying that Betty is "worse" than this or the other; I just say it doesn't have such a powerful sound, which isn’t a crime. I can listen to a couple of hours of Nick Drake without necessarily despairing in the futile search to blow out the speakers. Helmet doesn’t have those low frequencies, probably because they didn’t want to, preferring to come across as more "abrasive" than "powerful." And if we wanted to talk about "evaluation," I’d say I prefer any 90s Helmet album over any of the Refused or later incarnations. But we wouldn’t want to.

If you had bothered me, I wouldn't have said anything, I just found your way of thinking disgusting, that is: "I don't give a damn about this section, so let's close it." Because first you suggested closing it, then you explained that the reason is that you don't know more than half of the reviewed works. << reason in what? >> - DeBaser is not an online newspaper but a "bulletin board" where reviews are shared - This is written everywhere. Always. It's the only law. It's not difficult to understand: SHARING. You've shared two crap about cartoons, so you can't afford to demand the closure of a space where someone shares something, even if sometimes it’s "lowbrow" because at least they share. And sometimes they share great things, as far as I know. And yes, before you allow yourself to pass judgment on a community - of any kind - you should really engage with that community. And it seems to me that you are a damn nobody here (like me, who indeed cannot judge anything other than the contents and the users).
