  1. jessi, I can’t log into Verizon, gmail, etc. at work for personal email since they are all blocked, and I can’t send and receive personal email from my work address in light of the recent email surveillance and crackdown here. m4l is right about the pack mentality, but I’m also beginning to feel like a prisoner for 12+ hours/day. Until they block this site, this is my only outlet during the day. I have to admit that the personal restrictions have grown tiresome, to say the least; I think it’s highly unrealistic to actually expect people to cut themselves off from their lives and the outside world for the entire day. Not what I signed on for.

  2. “Jay and Em concert”

    What is that? Is that some kind of band?

    “Whether it is true all depends on whether you are psycopathically religious or not.”

    No, truth is objective and absolute and doesn’t depend on whether you believe it or not. At least my truth is. I don’t know about your truth. I don’t even know if you exist.

  3. “If you can sell out 62,000 seats in 5 minutes, then you can judge whose “music” is supposingly shitty and whose not.”

    having more fans doesn’t necessarily make you more talented musically. record labels are all about marketing nowadays. i guarantee you there are 20 rappers out there we’ve never heard of that have way more skills than Jay/Em

    justin beiber can sell out an arena in minutes – Robert Plant is playing at a small local venue that holds 500 (Bowery Ballroom)

    Who has/will have a lasting impact on music?

  4. Damn, CGar, do they make you pee in a jar, too? Unless you are doing brain surgery, I don’t understand not being able to get away long enough to have a lunch break, and a few other minutes to yourself somewhere during the day. All the money in the world isn’t worth literally killing yourself for an employer, especially one who will dump you the second your presence is no longer needed, or their bottom line needs rearranging.
