Yeah, he certainly wasn't a pleasant person, but that doesn't have that much to do with the Beatles' music. 

 

ok. if you believe this, and believe somebody gonna click on a 20 minute yoko ono song, then you are cuckoo.

He may have written shit like "Woman is the Nigger of the World", but that was in his solo career. The only sort of thing that's reflected Lennon's personality, as far as I can remember, in the Beatles' discography is "Run for Your Life" off Rubber Soul. It's pretty easy to separate Lennon the person from his music with his Beatles output, as opposed to someone like Grunt

 

17 minutes isn't even long! Yoko has a ton of other great material anyway

Yeah. Zorn's accompaniment isn't as fitting to her vocal improv as the krautrock-esque rhythms of Fly - it seems to take the forefront while Yono's improvisations echo it - but it's still pretty neat

 

Her more "normal" rock stuff is pretty great too

How do chicks wear dry denim without washing it for a long time

 

I've always been curious. Never dated a superfuturian/denim nerd but I'm totally okay with that

It might weaken the preservative, instead try a water-based lubricant. Happy humping!

for those who had people file chargebacks on them, is it normal for paypal to just take the money out of your bank account without even making a decision on the case first?

[ProfMonnitoff]

yes, paypal will pretty much always assume the buyer is right and screw you over

[only_time]

yes, paypal will pretty much always assume the buyer is right and screw you over

 

 

this gets thrown around a lot but has this ever actually happened to anyone here? i.e. you sold something to somebody and upheld your end of the bargain but they still fucked you with a dispute.

[e0d9n0b5]

yes

[ProfMonnitoff]

it happened to me before and i dont know what the solution is, paypal definitely won't change their approach to this anytime soon, i rarely sell online anymore and if i do then i insist on shipping with tracking/signature on receipt as well as marking full value

 

the fees you have to pay for doing that pretty much mean items under like $200 are hardly even worth selling, but that's just how it is

internet is throwing a fit over paypal's updated user agreement fwiw. mostly the robocall / text part:

yeah. my old paypal is still -300 after a couple of months actually, but i just use a family member's account. no way i'm paying it back unless i come into life insurance money. guy from brooklyn (of course) said my item was fake even though i showed them an official receipt from the flagship store.

 

they used call me like twice a day (just sporadically in the week now), but my phone is always silent and facedown so it's not that annoying.

 

sometime i transfer a dollar or two to be rude
