Some or most of what is offered as music these days is like the business
end of a vacuum cleaner while it's in use. Is that better? ;-)

"creeping in"
How dare younger generations try to define their own ideals.
Personally, my all-time biggest hero is Frank Zappa, icon of my
father's generation, and I seem to recall him being pretty insulting
towards people who disagreed with him.

Yep. I went through a Sublime phase, and some of the best lyrics

Don't try to equate "cheap" language, as you call it, with foul
language. It's bad enough that I have to double check what I
write on lists like these to make sure I haven't dropped the
F-bomb without thinking about it. I'd have to censor the names
of some of my own songs just to mention them here, if I had been
all-Linux when I did them. So if I want to say something sucks,
especially if I have constructive suggestions for dealing with
its suckiness, I damn well will. Everyone else should feel free
to do the same.
I personally value the presence of people who may use "cheap"
language more than the presence of those who object to it, so
maybe you and the rest of the hand-wringers should update your
NetNanny block list or something. The reality is, while there
may be a preponderance of CS types and academics here, there are
also a lot of musicians, and we musicians tend to be both
eccentric and "cheap".
So now we have a meta thread about an off-topic thread. Lovely.
Can we get another meta thread going on top of this one?

My objection to those who use "cheap" language is:
It's an imprecise and frequently uncreative method of expressing one's
opinion.
Why not use one's enthusiasm and creativity instead.
My all-time favorite put-down is by Douglas Adams in The Hitchhiker's Guide to
the Galaxy. It came from the first episode of the radio broadcast, where the
narrator does a monologue on Vogon poetry.
"Vogon poetry is, of course, the third worst in the Universe. The second
worst is that of the Azgoths of Kria. During a recitation by the Poet Master
Grunthos the Flatulent of his poem 'Ode to a Small Lump of Green Putty I
found in My Armpit One Midsummer Morning' four of his audience died of
internal haemorrhaging, and the President of the Mid-Galactic Arts Nobbling
Council survived by gnawing one of his own legs off. Grunthos is reported to
have been 'disapointed' by the poem's reception, and was about to embark on a
reading of his twelve book epic entitled 'My Favourite Bathtime Gurgles' when
his own major intestine, in a desperate attempt to save humanity, leapt
straight up through his neck and throttled his brain. The very worst poetry
of all perished along with its creator, Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings of
Greenbridge in the destruction of the Planet Earth."
Now *that* is a put-down.
Or perhaps Adams was only teasing his classmate, Paul Neil Milne Johnstone.
Either way, it shows an astonishing level of creativity.

The economy of language requires the occasional cheap word. Sometimes
the "foul" word is the most efficient, cutting directly to the point
in one four-letter syllable as euphemism sputters feebly, only to miss
the mark by a mile.
Kind of like how sometimes a basic program like Audacity can come in
so handy for quick an dirty tasks like isolating your peaks and
bringing them down for optimal normalization, not to profane Audacity
or anything.

Straw man (no one here has said he "enjoys" cheap language,
merely that some of us use it and are not offended by others
using it) and false dichotomy (I would submit that eliminating
the "cheap" from your language reduces your creative palette,
rather than increasing it as you imply.) I never did debate

fallacies.

No, that's an entire stand-up routine in print form. You and I

He was far from being vulgar, but Hendrix is overrated in many
circles. Many guitar players were as creative and cool as Hendrix in
that era (Green, Beck, Santana, Clapton himself). Probably the problem
with them is that they never burnt a guitar in scene or performed the
american anthem in such a stupid way. Also I tend to underrate those
who die stupidly (happens to me the same with Jeff Buckley, I feel

OK. I find this disgustingly offensive. In a way it is moderately
fair, as he went swimming wearing all his clothing, but I would
venture to guess that you've done things as stupid, however you chose
a good day to be stupid, and you're still with us. I think that by
definition if your progeny dies before reproducing, you've failed as a
living organism, lumping Tim in with his son as an egregious offender
in the crime of oversight.
As an aside, I'm being more obscene in content than in language,
notice. Anybody interested in this distinction would do well to watch
the Dustin Hoffman movie "Lenny," about Lenny Bruce. Or listen to
Lenny Bruce himself.
On the topic of moderate fairness, there was a woman raped in my
neighborhood last week. At 9:30pm, my friend who was on the front
porch saw a 300-pound young man pacing her about 20 feet behind her,
and shouted to the guy, and she noticed that the man was following
her, and that my friend was trying to get his attention. She
continued out of the light of the streetlamp as well as out of sight
of the two men on the front porch, into the darkness of a nearby park.
Five minutes later, the cops were there, and she had been beaten and
raped.
That dumb broad can be written off, no? Or is this error in judgement
somehow different? Could you please notify me when one of your
children or one of your idols dies due to an error in judgement so I
can write them off? Thanks. I appreciate it.

Everyone has a different threshold of "foul language" - fortunately most
of the really really rude words I know, most of the people wouldn't

own, all you would hear was "fuck", "shit", "damn", and
"suck", regularly
used in normal conversation (though i have to admit that the kids used them a

Maybe a hundred posts one after another: That must suck, et al. I think

Since when is "suck" classed as "foul language"?
