dearest charles.

ok. i thank the good lord daily that it's not my job to educate fools like yourself about drum n' bass. it's my job to get idiotic mail out of my inbox. i'm no don of dnb, but i don't exert my uninformed opinions upon the public. that's like farting in someone's mouth. you don't hear me commenting on the relative influences upon idm development, because i don't know about them and i don't care to know about them. i tire of snob assholes like yourself judging and compartmentalizing a music on ridiculously subjective criteria. when you post opinions on a list you are going to offend people if you demean a music.

ok. prove me wrong. if you're so confident in your opinion then use my examples to prove your point. but it's my estimation that you can't back up what you said, that your lack of knowledge added to your general dislike of drum n' bass resulting in a tart and insecure rant. you post an opinion which you believe necessitates public commentary: this is a mailing list. if you can't handle the fire, get your hand out of the flame. you aren't simon reynolds, whose opinions i find banal but well-founded. you made generalizations and you got burned - that's the moral of the story. so, like i said before, shut up. - jordan --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
