Kanye West.

Who are some famous people you wish would just go away?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 19, 2018:

This side of the pond, Piers Morgan, Nigel Farage and Morrissey.

As a newcomer, I find Agnostics to be elitist.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 19, 2018:

Remember, scum always rises to the top! Look at me! I'm already a 5, and I'm fucking awful!

Complete this sentence "I wish I had someone with whom I could share..."

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 19, 2018:

Passion. It's been a looooong time, and I really miss that... heat.

Very first concert you attended?

Ministry - Jesus Built My Hotrod (RedlineWhiteline Version) [youtube.com]

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 18, 2018:

Christ on a bike, almost wore this ep out back in the day. That and TV song - Mike Scaccia at his frenzied finest.

Rock-a-billy? Yes? No? Reverend Horton Heat - Let Me Teach You How To Eat [youtu.be]

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 18, 2018:

In Oz, we had The Fireballs... https://youtu.be/pjmGUzXCMzc

How important is having the same taste in music for a relationship?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 18, 2018:

I have utterly appalling taste in music. I wouldn't expect anyone with a modicum of style to share it. Just let me drag my aging carcass to a frenzied mosh pit once in a while, and I'll be a happy camper.

Would you rather have friends or fans?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 18, 2018:

Friends. I've made it as far as very, very low grade infamy, and having random people accost you in the street is a thoroughly weird experience.

Given that assimilation and appropriation of external culture traits/features is a means through ...

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 18, 2018:

If you want to look at an example of cultural exchange without dominance, look at the west's cultural relationship with Japan.

Today at the gym some dude was yelling and screaming at the screen while running on his treadmill.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 18, 2018:

You have referred to a man behaving in an entitled and inconsiderate way negatively. I predict an avalanche of butthurt broflakes. In fact, I can already hear the distant cries of 'Misandry!' and 'Not all mensss!'

Confort or challenges?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 18, 2018:

I like comfort. Challenges seem to have their own way of seeking me out.

What are some of the biggest scientific breakthroughs??

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 18, 2018:

Plate tectonics - underpins all of earth sciences. The modern synthesis of genetics and evolution. Quantum mechanics.

How many places have you lived in your lifetime?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 18, 2018:

Moved around a bit as a kid, but mainly grew up in Nowra, a big-ish town about 100 miles south of Sydney. Beautiful surroundings, but the town itself is pretty white trash ('bogan' in the local dialect). From 18, various share houses around Sydney, mainly in the Epping/Eastwood area or the inner city. Then off to the UK, first Cambridge, now Manchester. Probably lived in around 30 different houses in my lifetime?

Manscaping???

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 17, 2018:

I'm a freakin' wookie. Way too much effort would be required to make me look good as opposed to just thread bare.

How often do you watch the news?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 17, 2018:

Infojunkie.

How important are someone's writing skills when communicating online?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 17, 2018:

I'm a big fan of wit. Too bad I've only got a half.

What is something you think everyone should do at least once in their lives?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 17, 2018:

Be orally pleasured whilst on acid. Like m&m's, you too can come in different colours.

Since this is my Facebook ?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 17, 2018:

I think about how motherfucking sharp I look when dressed up for an interview. Dressing up always helps with the confidence.

What are some great movies with philosophical meanings behind them??

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 17, 2018:

Mr Pickles. Even a satanic mass murdering border collie can have a heart of gold.

What's something that is popular right now that annoys you?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 17, 2018:

Working class people voting conservative. May as well just hand them the lube and say 'be gentle'.

Ok is it just me or does anyone else's skin crawl when they hear/read the much over used word ...

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 17, 2018:

Worse is the Australianism, 'yummo' (gags).

What are the articles of clothing you hate to wear but must at certain times?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 14, 2018:

Boxers. I hate flippy-flopping all over the place. In the words of Kramer, "my little man needs a house!"

Having a lonely night.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 14, 2018:

Jet, who's usually black but had been rolling in chalk drawings the kids did. Luna, pretending to be a plant. Two black cats, born on Halloween.

Any punk fans on here?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 13, 2018:

Definitely. I pretty much listen to anything fast - punk, ska, thrash/death metal, gabber house etc. At the moment, I need cheery stuff so it's NOFX and Frenzal Rhomb on high rotation.

If you could only pick one...

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 10, 2018:

No books.

Favorite Author? Just one!

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 3, 2018:

Iain Banks, by the shortest of noses.

Do you like to fly?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jul 1, 2018:

I love flying, but only during the day. I'm over 6 foot and have only ever been able to afford cattle class, so sleeping is out of the question. Yes, the actual process of getting on the plane is a pain, but I'll happily spend the whole trip starting out the window. I'm a geology nerd, so I love the perspective.

"Your western morality is based on Judeo-Christian values" If I got a penny each time I was told ...

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Jun 14, 2018:

Our morality is based on the philosophy of the Enlightenment, which was vigorously opposed by the religious establishment of the time.

Any Die Antwoord fans?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 23, 2018:

Yup. Shouldn't work, but does.

Trip hop mix.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 20, 2018:

1 - Love the Chris Cunningham video to Only You. 2- The Avalanches are from Melbourne.

Just putting this out there.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 15, 2018:

As a republican (not the American kind) Australian trapped in the UK, I have no skin in that game.

Do most men really like large breasts?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 12, 2018:

That's like asking a man dying of thirst if he prefers still or sparkling.

Basic survival skills

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 12, 2018:

I was poor. Repairmen cost money.

Famous last words. What do you think the best last words will be?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 11, 2018:

I like Tim Minchin's of a plaintive 'Who's the world going to revolve around now...?'

What do you to make yourself feel sexy?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 9, 2018:

I have a party suit. It's white, with a fine turquoise and yellow check pattern and a matching turquoise satin lining. It was made in the 70's by JC Penny and I have a matching trilby made of proper rabbit fur felt of the same vintage. It makes me feel pimptastic, and I've worn it to everything from painfully hip nightclubs to warehouse raves to death metal gigs, and it always gets complements.

What's the nicest thing you've ever done for another person?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 9, 2018:

I dunno, lots of little stuff, I guess. Lots of helping ladies with prams negotiate public transport. Lots of spending time with oddballs at uni who otherwise might have felt pretty isolated. Lots of making my bipolar/unipolar depressive friends cry with laughter when the black dog was visiting. Lots of sanctuary provision to geeky kids at the library I used to work at. Little bits and pieces - can't think of any grand gestures, I'm afraid.

What distopian world would you choose to live in?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 9, 2018:

As an Australian, has to be Mad Max.

Going down, down, down, down, down, with JJ Cale and Leon Russell. [youtube.com]

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 9, 2018:

Aww, I though that you'd posted this for a second... https://youtu.be/GSNgXDV62RQ

Here's one for all my blockees though they can't see it. ?[youtu.be]

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 9, 2018:

I haven't had to block anyone yet! Now, excuse me while I bask momentarily in the warm glow of male privilege.

My parents are very religious.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 9, 2018:

You're doing good, lass. You've taken huge steps, and the occasional backwards step ain't changing that trajectory. Strength and endurance to you.

What atheist music do you listen to?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 7, 2018:

Does blatantly satanic death metal count?

Mither to pester or annoy, usage stop mithering me I don't want to be a mither from Northern ...

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 6, 2018:

Never heard it until I moved to Manchester. Took me ages to tell whether it should be spelled with a 'th' or a 'v'.

I'm feeling a wee bit melancholy this evening.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 5, 2018:

https://youtu.be/Wtak7jJmv8o

I’m wondering if folks find it more difficult to have friends with religious beliefs, or friends ...

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 5, 2018:

Here in the UK there isn't the same 'religious bloc' thing happening politically.

Who likes jokes?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 4, 2018:

What goes: Clip clop, clip clop, clip clop. BANG! BANG! BANG! Clip clop, clip clop, clip clop. An Amish drive-by.

Here we go.. will this office serve non religious Americans?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 3, 2018:

Let's all join the Church of Satan! Statues of Baphomet in every school!

Help! I just asked a nice old lady in a hardware store if she knew if they had good hoes there.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 3, 2018:

Hel is a seaside resort in Poland.

Sweden makes sex info films for immigrants - The Local

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 3, 2018:

How to really annoy conservatives: respond to every point they make with "But Sweden."

Anybody listen to Moby?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 3, 2018:

Know who he is, but not a big fan. If I want downbeat groove, I'll stick to Massive Attack, Portishead and Lamb. Maybe Bjork.

When I was a kid, hardly anyone talked about plastic surgery.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 2, 2018:

When my wife came back from the beautician, I told her they'd overplucked her eyebrows. She looked surprised.

Three songs that meant a lot to me when I was a teenager [youtube.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 2, 2018:

Debaser is perfection.

Chemtrails your thoughts

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 2, 2018:

I think they are evidence that basic science needs to be taught more effectively in schools.

When I was a kid, hardly anyone talked about plastic surgery.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 2, 2018:

Badoom tish.

Does anybody like progressive music?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 2, 2018:

I was in a short lived band that did progressive death metal versions of the first three Star Wars soundtracks. Does that count? It sounded like this... https://youtu.be/T72JBPdk0aQ

What are you guys listening to at the moment?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 2, 2018:

Punk in Drublic by NOFX, a split LP with NOFX and Rancid, and the Distillers first album. Going through a bouncy punk phase.

How long...?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 2, 2018:

Two years and counting...

How do you date?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 1, 2018:

I don't know. I've never been on a date.

What are two things you would change in your life that you know would make it significantly better?.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 1, 2018:

Double my income and halve my temper.

So, I was driving (in Australia) back from Canberra to Goulburn last night.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 1, 2018:

Weird. Especially as there's pretty much bugger all between Canberra and Goulburn. Possibly one of the locals from those little decaying towns that got bypassed when they redid the Hulme Highway. Mighty strange folk left behind in those places.

How would you respond to this?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 1, 2018:

So God had a plan for everyone, right? Then why is his plan for so many to die of malnutrition in a refugee camp before they reach the age of five?

Seeking more adjunct or teacher advice- I’ve said before that I’m a teacher at a prison, and ...

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 1, 2018:

A completely inexperienced teacher dumped into prison with no support?! They should be kissing your feet for finishing the semester.

Korean Peace I don't think anyone wants to see efforts to calm things down on the Korean ...

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 1, 2018:

It's nothing to do with Trump. North Korea is entirely dependant on the good will of China. They've had a 'quiet word'.

[youtube.com] A little drunk, so as usual, I am re-living the 90s.

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on May 1, 2018:

Downtime hobbies

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Apr 30, 2018:

I'm trying to manage a divorce and help raise 4 kids, two of whom are on various spectrums (spectra?). What is this "down time" you speak of?

Politness and Courtesy

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Apr 30, 2018:

When I was a shaven headed, goatee'd metalhead dressed head to toe in black I went out of my way to be polite. Never lost the habit.

"Mom, what are those black hairs sticking out of your nose?"

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Apr 30, 2018:

I had my first nostril and ear wax about six months ago. I'm ludicrously hirsute in the facial department - untamed, my ears could challenge a koala and I look like I sneezed my beard. The upside is that I still have a full head of hair in my mid-forties.

I went for a walk along the San Andreas fault line yesterday and felt an overwhelming transcendent ...

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Apr 29, 2018:

I'm with you on that one. Many moons ago, I climbed Mt Rinjani in Indonesia, and from the top you could see the entire volcanic arc curving away. Very glad I did a geology degree.

Which news site you trust most?

MrBeelzeebubbles comments on Apr 28, 2018:

Guardian for a left-ish perspective, The Times for the right.

Flat Earther relative?
