Pre-Order Thread

If it’s GDP per head of capita it’s a misleading figure. Ireland is third in the world because we have a very low corporation tax rate so US multinationals funnel their profits through Irish operations. We’re a relatively well off small country but that money Isn’t realistically staying here.

So many Taylors would visit, stay a while, and then leave.
 
 
I know there were people who missed out on these back when they were VMP AoTM and exclusives. Looks like they’re being given a wider repress. Were on an email I just got from my local so I’m guessing they’ll appear on a wider release, at least in Europe.

Figures. Just emailed their support asking if they can switch my order to this one from the blue
 
I know and realize you all are grouped up and have history
I read the room and fully expected to be the outsider who crossed lines
Being new means STFU as a general matter and stay in your lane
So this is what I expected
I prefer a group like this as opposed to a huge forum
It is incumbent on me to conform and not to expect what should not be

Eh, most of us are well aware of the whys and hows and wherefores of why sex is used to sell shit -- there's a marked difference between say, Shakira, who I am very sure would be offended as fuck if you didn't notice she was being 110% sexy at all times -- and relative unknowns who are not necessarily known for their use of sexuality to sell their art or call attention to their art. I don't think it's virtue signalling to notice this. Is it 'vice signalling' to have a snarky dismissal of these concerns as if they weren't valid or real?

Not for nothing… enough of us have interacted with you that this went much better than if it had been your first post.

Shit gets derailed here though.

I mean....lee's not joking, it's a welcoming place....mostly.
 
I am going to say it, I think Tolkien is a crap writer.

"But he is a linguist and a world builder!" Too which I reply, he named the scariest place in middle earth Mount Doom. How long did that take him to come up with?
the standards were lower. Look at HP Lovecraft (not too closely, not too long, definitely don't ask him his cat's name, jesus fucking christ, do not ask him what his fucking cat's name is,) -- "master of horror" and all his stories are basically "strangers are scary! so scary they drive you crazy!". Fucking Edgar Allan Poe is 'the father of the detective novel' and it's all fucking dreck from nose to tail. Dickens tells a good story but you're like OMG why is this so long and then you find out he was getting paid by tthe word and you're like well of course.
