SMEE's Random Banter #97 of gender bending and closet bursting

[Cobra_Ikari]

Please, don't diss the beer While I admit that tequila is a fine beverage indeed, nothing tops the taste of a cool beer on a hot day.

...umm...yes, there is.

I hate the taste of beer. That, and for some reason, tequila is the only alcoholic thing I've had that doesn't give me a splitting headache. *shrugs*

[Nychta]

Playing in a group is trickier, but you'll be fine seeing as you kept it simple, no worries.
Also, that's a lot of letters. I remember when I was about 5, I always wanted a lot of letters after my name... my dad told me that I could use my last name, and nobody would even know the difference.

[Shraik]

I'm a RACECAR!!!
*RING-DING-DING-DING-DING-DING*

[Dihan]

It's making my four solo pieces last 8 minutes that is really making me nervous, and making silly mistakes. Or injuring my wrist as I was leaving my house for one of my grade exams a while ago.

Something will go wrong though. It always does when I'm involved.

[Uncle Festy]

Ah, piano. I really need to start playing again.
Oh, and playing in groups without a lot of practice is a pain in the nether reigons.

[Raiser Blade]

Beer tastes disgusting. I would rather my acoholic beverages not taste like piss.

Strawberry daiquiri's on the other hand...

[Player_Zero]

You're all way off, nowadays it's cooler to be straight edge...

At least, I wish it was...

I half-agree. I like Dark Beer, it tastes sweet.....er.

The fancy fruit mixes are always good, though.

[Nychta]

According to dubious blogthings quizzes, I'm a strawberry daiquiri!

You're clearly drinking the wrong beer.

I'm not going to advocate that everyone like all beers, it can definitely be an acquired taste, but I will say that there are so many hundreds of varieties that to lump them all together as "taste like piss" is wholly unfair. And if you've never had anything other than a macro brew (Coors, Budweiser, Miller) then you've only tasted the garbage anyway. It's like declaring all seafood is rehashed fecal matter becuase you ate at a Long John Silver's once.

*hugs*...now now, Zeb. Look at it this way. More beer for you.

Well I guess what I mean by beer is a macro brew. I have never tasted a beer I liked so from my experiences beer recieves a general thumbs down. In the future this may change but I will wait to see if I can find any good tasting ones before changing my opinion.

The only beer that I like is root beer!

I dislike alchohol in general...

In fact, short of a few sips of wine, no alchohol has ever passed these lips!

[Dragonrider]

Anyway, CSK, how can you hate disney? They brought us Pixar! Pixar is perhaps the greatest movie producer in the world! And definatlly the greatest animators...

I could be wrong (and I'm sure I will hear about it if I am ) but I'm pretty sure that Pixar was originally independent but was bought out by Disney in the last few years. Unless you mean that Disney was the original pioneer in the field of animations, in which case, yes, I will agree with you.



Regarding piano: I wish it were still near the top of my priority list () but I barely practice anymore. I've played since I was six but now look at me...I've hardly touched the keys in months.....

Here! Here! Although I can truthfully say that I have never imbibed alcohol.

As for piano, I wish I knew how to play. Then I could pick up chicks.

[North]

Yeah theres a lot of different types of beer out there. Some tastes like horse piss, others like liquid heaven.


Mmm.....beer.

Still safe to say I only like Dark beer. I've tried several types of beers from around here, and the one I really like is "Indio", whose Wikipedia article seems to be missing. There is Corona, but......... meh.

I guess I just like stuff when it's sweet.

The dark beer is a lie.

Seconded!
Heck, I don't even like wine that much. The stuff is bitter like you can't imagine.
Or, you probably can, as most of you've had wine. So, forget it.

That was the gayest thing you could have said.
Pshaww, girl. Have some dignity. And another daiquiri.
*gives you mine*
*cracks a tall, dark, handsome beer with its label hanging half-off and beads of glistening condensation dribbling down its long, slender, graceful neck*

Nkay, while the subject is still remotely hanging in the air, I'm working towards a grade 8 piano exam at the end of summer. I haven't played an exam since I got too cool for lessons when I was 15.
...any advice?

[Zakama]

I have wine all the time at church. Communion and all...

[Recaiden]

Any beer that i've drunk? has tasted pretty bad. Root beer though, may be the best drink ever.

Kneenibble, I've only just started doing exams, at around the grade 5 level, so I don't know how much help I'm going to be.
But my advice would be to stand out. The examiners get really bored, listening to piece after piece - and there isn't much selection. Make it different. Shake it up. It's just another performance, really. Even with scales, play them dramatically - you'll think you're overdoing it, but your marks will say otherwise.

EDIT: Hang on. 'Mr. Cobra' isn't a 'real live person'? I've been virtu-hugging a thing? What??? Note the extra exclamation marks. I'm serious.

I made it all the way back in 5th grade. To tell you the truth it's FAR better when you make it than when you get it from tap, or bottle.

Pixar was what again? Shrek, Nemo and that stuff? Because that was horrible.

*Double takes*

What! Shrek! No! That was Dreamworks! I'm talking Monsters Inc., Toy Story, The Incredibles!

Have you actually looked at their stuff? Their animation is top-notch!

EDIT: Yes, I am a Pixar Fanboy...
