so... I bought my little sister a DVD for Christmas but that just didn't seem personal enough

so I'm giving her a 12 disk box set of punk rock albums that I think are important for her

Descendents, The Dwarves, Misfits, The Undertones, Tiger Army, This Bike Is A Pipe Bomb, Anti-Flag

am I being cheap or is this actually a thoughtful gift?

get her an mp3 player with that music loaded on it. Also, put some good music on there.

12/20/2007 12:57:40 PM

for family, its thoughtful

for very close friends (only best friend or two) its ok

for gf's its cheap (not your fault, cunts are materialistic)



I think that's a kickass present for your sister

12/20/2007 12:58:26 PM

she owns an mp3 player

I considered burning all of these to an mp3 disk - it would have been easier

but I know that she still plays CDs in her car and that's where I want these to be
she should ride around town listening to this stuff

^please don't call my girlfriend a cunt
that kind of vulgarity makes you look like a piece of shit

I think it's very appropriate and well-thought out.

12/20/2007 12:59:58 PM

Depends on how much you personalize it. Some people will think its sweet and some will think it's cheap. Basically, if the person is materialistic they won't like it

12/20/2007 1:01:46 PM

ambrosia are you talking about his gift idea or my use of the word cunt?


and snewf, I apologize if i've offended you, I don't know your gf and didn't mean anything personal, maybe she's the one woman on earth who isnt a cunt

12/20/2007 1:02:34 PM

you need some Against Me!

then it will be complete.

As The Eternal Cowboy

or

Reinventing Axl Rose

^^What makes you think 'cunt' is a well-thought out word?

If I were replying to your post, I'd have added "^^" to mine.

[Edited on December 20, 2007 at 1:07 PM. Reason : like I just did, given that someone posted between this one and yours]

awesome gift

I love mix cds, free albums and anything of that nature

12/20/2007 1:08:50 PM

i'd say thoughtful. i've done this for my dad before, he really liked it. of course part of that is because he doesn't own any cd's, and I burned him 5 cds of his favorite bands/songs

12/20/2007 1:09:22 PM

I'm always showing music to my sister... whenever I show her new music she's commented that 6 months later her friends are into it or it is popular in some way

this happened with the gypsy punk and it happened with power metal, so I think I am actually a few steps ahead of some highschool kids

I wanted to expose her to the progression of musical trends in punk rock so I started with some rockabilly stuff


^^^^ yeah I really like Against Me!

he didn't

he called all girlfriends cunts




oh and

nice gift idea

12/20/2007 1:19:49 PM

I think it's sweet and a totally acceptable gf gift if you pick out songs along some theme.
Like, "I'm sorry I fucked up so bad" songs or "Wow I really love you so much and even though we have problems I know we can make it" songs or anything by the Beach Boys.

12/20/2007 1:22:27 PM

^^I agree with everything 392 said

12/20/2007 1:26:17 PM

I think if you find yourself having problems with EVERYONE you should look inward for the source

and my girlfriend is a subset of the group "all girlfriends"

also, my mother was once my father's girlfriend and my sister can be a girlfriend too

so watch that fucking misogyny

12/20/2007 1:46:46 PM

hey i tried being civil, but fuckoff

Misogyny is my right as a cock wielding man, and expressing it is my first amendment right

12/20/2007 1:49:34 PM

that's fucking bullshit and you know

you're just another part of the problem

12/20/2007 1:56:51 PM

what problem?

The women's rights movement has ended, they can vote, fuck like animals all day and night, pop bc pills, scrape their uterus like a blizzard windshield to avoid responsibility, and hell we may even have a cunt in the oval office (not under the desk blowing the commander in chief)

I think its safe to say they're on equal (IF NOT BETTER) footing. Bitches don't open doors for me.

you obviously don't see women as equals

its evident on the most basic level in your language

you live within an oppressive conceptual framework
and as such, you're part of the problem

I'm sure that this stems from your relative lack of success with women
maybe if you were nicer you'd develop a meaningful relationship with a woman
maybe she'd even suck your dick

12/20/2007 2:01:52 PM

Dude I got my dick sucked last night so obviously your line of thinking is wrong there

And I do look at them as equals

12/20/2007 2:03:57 PM

but you obviously have a problem with women's reproductive rights

honestly, man
guys like you make me understand why there are separatist lesbians

12/20/2007 2:07:00 PM

I like jerkin to lesbos occasionally myself, I just wish non-pay dykes werent so irate all day

I did meet a nice dyke last night, she was actually pretty civil, so +1 for real deal lesbos

12/20/2007 2:08:17 PM

your suggestion that she might not be civil suggests that you understand that she could have reasons NOT to be civil with you
