Flip Sorry had the best soundtrack of any skatevideo

[ballintoohard]

There was actually a Planet Money (I think) podcast about Nickelback's success despite being "the most hated rock band of all time). In the end it came down to the individual members of the band being really smart with their touring and song-writing. They paid good attention to what kind of shit white Americans liked to hear about and toured to low cost areas they could consistently sell tons of tickets in and once they had a foothold just wrote cheesy shit Nascar fans liked.

So their success has nothing to do with Nirvana.

what if you could kook/gnar individual posts. instead of people's accounts as a whole. idk. either way im gonna get kooked, fuck it. one day the world will understand, my promise to you is i will heal the world before i die, you save my words and you cry to this truth, as i type from basedworld

The people that can gnar or kook you are actually the kooks. Pal status is for nerds.  A negative rep means you are a free thinker and if you focus at Jr member you are a god.

thats the suck a frank guy avatar so im watching yall 

[BieberStance]

I always thought greatly about heath and he was on par my favourite skater with reynolds.
But the other day i rewatched Emerica Wild Ride. And my opinion changed.
There he feels super obnoxious and douchy and full of him self while being a pain in the ass to alot of people.
His "interrogation" thing after avoiding his team mates is super childish and cringey.

Transworld Anthology is the best skatevideo of all time

BamaHardy's story about Heath ascribed him to Marc Johnson status where I disavow all the cool shit I've seen him do in light of the real person he is hiding.

Straight up entitled prick

[Vomit Lust]

I’ve always kind of felt the same way. Without hard evidence or anything. Just got a heavy dickhead vibe from the dude. He rules, but I don’t think I’d like hanging out with him or vice versa.

Heath Kookart

[bad joke]

queef "dicklicker" Hoffart

[beatifk]

I don't like "shaped" decks including the newly resurfaced egg shapes.

I'm completely off them. I've had too many lately that were too weird and unskateable.

And I grew up skating in the 80s so this is a big revelation for me.

switching things up is never a bad idea.

Andrew Reynolds wasn't a part of it. It was Heath, Dan Rogers, and "Skate Talk" Bob Reynolds.

PALS who you use their special Kooking/Gnarring privileges to assert some kind of authority over non PALS are douchebags. You think anyone actually gives a shit about their “rep“ on a skateboarding forum?

I think a lot of people give enough of a shit to bring it up in their posts letting us know how much they don't care about their rep.

I thought the Beastie Boys doc sucked. And they were the soundtrack to my skatelife 85-95.

[close]

I’m a fan, but objectively they are not great musicians and the only flow they managed to make work was ‘Ch-Check it Out’, where they finally found an off-kilter cadence that tied up their amateurish rhyming with Jr High school humor, and faux-old school beats and made it work perfectly, and sound like something of their own.

Everything else has parts of good songs. Some have great beats ahead of their time (Paul’s Boutique and Check your head), some have good rhyming (but usually mitigated by nasally high voices) but mostly they sound second-rate at everything they did.

That amateurish approach was endearing, but not anything near the skill and quality that came from all other areas of rap.

[close]

There's good rhymes on basically every album from Paul's Boutique to Hello Nasty, mainly in the Paul's Boutique, Check Your Head, Ill Communication era. Specifically MCA had solid flow a lot of times. I would definitely not call it amateurish, just their own thing. Honestly for the late 80's and early 90's they were kinda on point - unless we're talking Tribe, De La Soul, or Public Enemy or something the rapping was probably kinda trash. We still had like LL Cool J type shit and Run DMC. This was a few years before Nas, Biggie, and Wu revolutionized shit. Fucking A the Beastie Boys had more solid flow than most of the guys in NWA.

Have you ever considered different ways to listen to music other than the radio?? you know about cd's and mixtapes-demos I assume?  The late 80's to early 90's is the highest point in history for this genre of music, from NYC to the south all the way to the west. There's more to rap than a highschool mixtape made out of the same 11 songs everyone has heard. Forget about "revolution", its called Progression.

I think pretty much the only time I ever Kook people is when I see them complain about Kooking, because that's the only time I remember it's a thing.

This, Nas style of rhymes already was made by Rakim and Kool G Rap in late 80s.
Beastie boys is overrated and white privilege. How many black groups was better and  hadnt the same recognition. Tribe, de la soul and the roots are better but underrated bands.

Breaking Bad was a dumb show too. My bad, I know the last episode was almost seven years ago.

[Billy Bitchcakes]

I just finished Breaking Bad last week and thought it was amazing, although my standard for good TV is pretty low and I've seen fuck all series
