@aerozol

Rating: Doesn’t sound like 16 people playing accordion at once (disappointing)

[teethfairy]

@aerozol

In short, and in my opinion: If I put a horse in a holding pen that says ‘zebra’ it’s still a horse

@highstrung

Remind me not to buy a ticket to aerozol’s zoo…

@IvanDobsky

Does the Wizard also play Accordion?

man, trying not to make this thread an @aerozol appreciation thread is pretty hard, he’s a funny man!

[aerozol]

Thanks

The community has been getting a bit more ‘social’ in the last few years and I’m really enjoying it!

@jesus2099 has been a trailblazer, they have made their posts fun since forever! But I can’t be bothered looking for them

[jesus2099]

It’s just my name that can make any statement funny.

@ernstlx

I recommend a small microscope - very useful! (I’ve got it recommended by @IvanDobsky once)
But a magnifying glass is necessary too.

@aerozol

@Aerozol

(that said, I waste plenty of my time on other stuff hah)

@sound.and.vision

like fighting the good fight against punctuation

@Aerozol

Oh god. Hopefully not too much time on that!!

" here lies Simon, who fixed punctuation "

@sound.and.vision

ahem

you mean

“here lies Simon, who fixed punctuation”

cant even get the right punctuation on his gravestone, what is this world coming to!

@Aerozol

You’ll hear a ‘wwhhhhhhhhrrrrrr’ of me spinning in the grave

@sound.and.vision

we can use you to power the MB servers

curse you, Discourse and your automatic punctuation correction! had to learn about “hair spaces”

from the unofficial Discord again~

(also, Guess Punctuation is a thing)

[UltimateRiff]

@malademental

Sorry for the bad informations on some of the groups but they seem to like anonymity and drugs… haha

sorry for the double post, but I had to share this gem I found in the edit notes while working on some breakcore/speedcore

[aerozol]

@UltimateRiff

[UltimateRiff]

after a discussion about digital bootleg releases:

@sound.and.vision

i dunno - im going back to the world of tangible music

I LIKE MUSIC THAT I CAN TASTE

@ultimateriff

lol

I guess I’ve never tasted music before…

@sound.and.vision

man there’s nothing like unwrapping a shrink wrapped vinyl record and then just smashing your teeth into it right there in front of the record store owners eyes

and then asking

can i get a coke with that

man, welcome to the Discord promotion thread, I guess…

[sound.and.vision]

Request for a taste attribute field on release entities please

[aerozol]

@IvanDobsky

“Vinyl” is just a generic “I know its black, but don’t own a ruler” response.

Very good

[UltimateRiff]

@ROpdebee

Sometimes I wonder whether @chaban is actually a machine…

@chaban

Error: Couldn't parse input string

don’t we all…

[aerozol]

@IvanDobsky

(Sorry - have an idiot on the phone here… can’t focus fully)

Honestly. How many people here are being paid to sit around and edit MB

[IvanDobsky]

@aerozol

being paid to sit around and edit MB

If you had had to deal with this guy through your Bank Holiday weekend, then you’d understand. Editing MB was stopping me from banging my head on the desk. The truth is most of my hours on MB is because no one is paying me to do anything better at the time… it goes both ways.

I could have said to him: “Excuse me sir, please wait while I sort out the name of the 1970s Italian studio Ian Dury recorded Reasons to be Cheerful in” but he would have just assumed I was mad.
