    To expand on what I said about rap music; I also refuse to accept sampling as an art or DJs as musicians. They take a piece of music that someone else created and claim it as their own.

    A DJ is someone that plays music on the radio or in a nightclub, they shouldn't be releasing singles or albums.

    He's an awesome DJ alright.

    You should check out the track he did with the rapper FYP.

    although I don't like that they do that, I can't agree. Take Endroducing - DJ Shadow 0% his material, but brilliant album

    Nonsense

    What about all the great remixes. Nearly all the music I listen to wouldnt exist were it not for dj's. The tracks they release are almost always much much better than the original.

    Things I refuse to do:

    - Give a **** what other people think of my clothes/hair/make-up or lack thereof.
    - Bitch about people behind their backs, if you piss me off I'll tell you.
    - Get on anything that goes very high and upside down, either one is fine but combined is just not fun (re: carnival rides)
    - Not say "thanks" to a waiter, I know you're not supposed to, but I find it rude.
    - Laugh at Madeline McCann/Joseph Fritzl jokes, I really don't find other people's torturous pain funny.
    - Long division, more so that I can't, rather than refusing to.

    :D

    I refuse to conform to how we are brought up to believe all the sh*t we read and hear from our media. Most of the quacks writing for the papers dont even understand the topics they debate !

    As such I find people get uncomfortable when I discuss certain political and social aspects of society as they cannot discuss things beyond perceived conventional wisdom that they simply grew up accepting. .

    You're not supposed to? Since when?

    I was raised to always say thanks. It is appreciated by waiting staff, believe me.

    Another thing I refuse to do is care about how well Ireland does in a football match. You often hear people saying "I don't follow football except when Ireland are playing." If you don't normally care about football why suddenly care just because Ireland are playing? :confused:

    The same goes for when my county is playing in a hurling match. I really couldn't care less if Carlow beats some other county or not. Someone is probably going to read this and laugh thinking "not likely" but the fact is I have no idea or no interest in how good a team Carlow are.

    Like I always say, if you don't vote stfu complaining about the government.
    But I feel that regardless of the person or party I vote for the political results are going to be the same, if FG were in government, it'd be the same, SF the same, LP the same - so I don't vote for anyone because I don't agree with any of them in my area. Why vote for someone I don't agree with? There's more to it than just a "too lazy to vote" attitude. And it's not just based around our current government either, it's for every other potential government.

    Well tell me, AnonoBoy, what age do you think I am? (sounds like a set up for complimenting a woman :))

    I'm hoping that you're in your early/mid twenties. But I've a niggling doubt that you might be much older.

    Well a large part of the genre of dance/electronic music is made up of remixes or at the very least samples of other songs, with some brilliant mixing and effects etc added in. I listen to a lot of this type of music so I'm not going to agree with you.

    A DJ like Tiesto is as much a musician as any guitarist.

    Like I said, I wouldn't know. I don't even think of that as an insult. Someone insulting my countys sporting prowess means as much to me as someone insulting the Moon.

    A DJ needs someone else to create music first. A guitarist (or any other musician) can make music from their own imagination.
