So aside from Romeo, no one really knows. We know what we want our destination to be like, just not what or where it is.

I don't think bon jour is the phrase you were looking for. Anyway, if it's The Final Countdown cover by Norther, that's slightly more bearable than having to watch reruns of the Dresden Files TV show. Metal makes everything better.

Download it anyway or shut up. Don't waste my time trying to placate me if you have no intention of listening to me. If your next video shows no signs of any attempt at cleaning up and correcting the audio, then I will leave the room so you can whack off to your own videos in private. I've...

Then it didn't belong. And what I posted earlier were not complaints either. I was calling on you to change things. I'm not going to spoon-feed you. O Fortuna for example. Don't you think by my reaction that's maybe something you shouldn't use? Or maybe that you should download Audacity...

Rather than continuing my blow-by-blow deconstruction, I'm going to take a different tack before I leave to get a sandwich. If I was to continue in the previous manner through the whole ten minutes, I would need at least two margaritas. The first performance was bland and pedestrian. It had...

Thoughts as they occur to me. 0:02 - O Fortuna? Seriously? 0:11 - What exactly is the destiny alluded to? 0:22 - Okay the music needs to ****ing stop. Now. 0:23 - ****, my ears! You seriously need to Audacity and do some audio mixing, dude. 0:34 - A pose that reeks of Criss Angel...

Which is why I said not to clog up the thread with it. "Any sufficiently advanced technology would be indistinguishable from magic." -Arthur C. Clarke Make of that what you will.

Don't accept tips when you're working at a decent-sized restaurant. It cheapens what you do. What the hell does that even mean? You gave bad advice and someone contradicted you with advice dispensed from real restaurant magicians. Now quit your crying. God, everyone on the internet...

If you want to know exactly why I rag on that series, PM me. I'd rather not clog up the thread. For now, suffice to say that it's not innovation when you just randomly make things up ignoring all historical and mythological context and background, and then claim that you're basing your...

Character motive, yes. But perhaps also a consistency to the mythos?

People are being corrupted when I say, "Spectators are asking, 'What's in it for me?" Glad we got that cleared up. I wasn't looking for an answer that I then did not know. I was inviting discussion. I thought your argument was bad and I said as much. Quit your crying. And you failed...

Hmm. Didn't take nearly as long as I thought it would. Pleasure doing business with you. So my cardinal sin is being a contrarian with a big vocabulary. I can live with that. Now are you going to address the first post or not?

So wear tuxedos constantly!

No. Something you want to get off your chest perhaps? I was saying it was a lame argument because it's a strawman. So your response to thinking I might have said something less than flattering about you is to respond with a snotty, petulant dismissal of my opinions and statements? Very...

It's a refreshing change to be honest with people and not have all the drama.

Yes I do. The fact that's not entirely true aside, most people with an ounce of performing experience know that the say-it-then-do-it formula is generally bland and uninteresting anyway. And besides that, it's somewhat tangential to the point, relating only in that you failed to create...

So metalheads are **** out of luck, then? (sigh) Story of my life.

That would be the suspension of disbelief. So why aren't we shouting at the actors in a play? What do movies, books, plays, and games offer that you're not offering now? You're actually going to use that as an argument? Only if you're so bad at this you can't get them involved...

To clarify, I'm addressing the fact that some magicians are beginning to take the stance that the supernatural no longer belongs in the presentation of magic, that audiences can no longer buy it so they don't want to see it. But that seems to fly in the face of the run-away success of the...
