Some more examples of double standards:
A musician in any other form of music sings about a problem. Nothing happens. But when a singer in the pop music field sings about a problem, they get dissed, having the disser falsely believe that the star has everything and shouldn't complain.
At my job, there are quite a few male consumers who have female staff. But the number of female consumers having male staff is extremely rare. There are a couple of exceptions to that rule, though.
A woman rapes a boy and marries him because she is pregnant with his child. They appear on the news. A man rapes a girl and the girl is pregnant with his child. Nothing else happens to them.
A woman cries. Nothing more happens to her. A man cries. He gets taunted and teased because he's been told that men don't cry.
Black musicians get the Tv station BET. White musicians don't get anything like that. If they did, they'd be considered racist.
A disabled person gets made fun of because of something they do. The insulter gets away with the taunting. If the disabled person fights back, they get the punishment.

Get the double standard mug.Carry in, carry out is a great rule, but why do state parks provide trash cans after they post signs saying this? What gives?

Get the carry in, carry out mug.A misunderstood, but popular rock band from Canada. They are hated on by so-called "rockers" who claim that they have gotten softer as their career has progressed, and because the rest of them don't have long hair like Chad does. Maybe, but they still have hard rock songs on their albums as well as those power ballads that have influenced such bands as Saving Abel. Just because Chad Kroeger has chosen not to scream all the time and be blunt in his songwriting instead of metaphorical like your rockers do is no reason to hate on them. They are not talentless fucks as you would like to believe. It's not their fault they are so popular. It's the fault of the fans. If it wasn't for us fans, dedicated and casual, they would be obscure.
Everyone seems to hate on Nickelback because Chad chose to start being a blunt lyricist from "Silver Side Up" onward instead of metaphorical like he was on "Curb" and "The State". They don't just talk about sex, drugs, and rock n roll like Buckcherry and the like do. Nickelback have had topical songs. Have Buckcherry et. al. done that? Maybe, but not very often. You say that the women who like Nickelback only like their ballads. WRONG! I like their rockers as well, and I'm a woman, and their biggest fan.

Get the Nickelback mug.Nathan Gale must have been an obsessed fan of Pantera and Dmageplan, and killed Dimebag Darrell because of something he wanted that couldn't be fulfilled; or he was pissed at Dimebag for collaborating with Nickelback. Either way, he is burning in hell for what he did, and the metal community knows that he won't hurt anyone else anymore. Even I haven't done anything like that to anyone in Eve 6, and I was an obsessed fan of them.

Get the Nathan Gale mug.a season that falls between winter and spring in New England and Canada. Consists of snow in April. It ends around mid-April, usually.
This sprinter is confusing me. It's causing Donna and Josh to think we're getting snow on Monday when we're really getting rain.

Get the sprinter mug.1)Country and blues music for the punk generation
2) Mature artistry that is overlooked by people who prefer misogynic music like gangsta rap, pop-rap, hardcore rap, most hard rock, certain R&B, and pop that only cares about sex

1)Emo is considered country and blues for the punk generation because it talks about the same things country and blues talk about--your lover leaving you and you think you can't go on without them-- yet it gets dissed while country and blues don't. What is wrong with this picture?
2) Anybody who claims emo is overwrought hasn't truely listened to it and are just hating on it because they're told it's cool to not express your emotions.

Arthur: "I've always been a smoker".
