The day the music died

Term used to describe any day in which a musician of critical acclaim passes on. The term generally refers to the day Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper passed on when their plane crashed, but has in recent times been used to describe the passing of other legendary musicians such as Elvis Presley, John Lennon and most recently, Michael Jackson. The term originated from Don Mclean's song 'American Pie', and the event itself is a very emotional time for the music industry, and of course the many dedicated fans of the icon themselves... but it is important to remember that although they are physically gone, the musical contribution they have made to our lives and the music scene in general shall remain with us always...

The day the music died:

Buddy Holly
The Big Bopper
Ritchie Valens
Elvis Presley
John Lennon
Michael Jackson

R.I.P :(

Please note that my opinion is not above other people: you may have your own musical icons that deserve to be up here, which is perfectly fine- but this only refers to the most famous and recognisable musicians where a day the music died has been made upon their passing.

Atheist

Any person clever enough to take a stand against inconsistent religious theories and practices and instead live their life independently from alleged divine authority figures and lifestyles which enforce unjustified regulations upon their existence. Atheists generally believe that there is no god- although reasons for this choice of opinion differ, many revolve around logical thinking and lack of scientific proof, which concludes that no such being exists. Just because someone is an atheist does not mean that they do not want to believe in god... it just means that there is no realistic evidence to support any claims of god's existence- and therefore no reason to believe in god itself.

An atheist is a person of logic and sense, independent of religion and it's customs.

tripping

A state of mind brought on by experiencing a different state of consciousness- mostly through vast changes in perception, senses and thought patterns. Tripping is usually experienced through the use of psychedelic drugs such as LSD, mescaline, and psilocybin- but can also be experienced naturally as well. This is because psychedelic drugs are supposed to break down the filters of the mind i.e 'thought at large' which are believed to eliminate unnecessary thought patterns. Because the mind (including the alleged filters) were not fully developed in youth, tripping could sometimes happen naturally as a result. And if you don't believe me or think it's impossible, then read the example... you'll know what I'm talking about :)

When I was younger, the world seemed a more vibrant place. It was much easier to daydream or lose myself in my thoughts, or imagine things as though they were real. Music felt really alive, as though it connected with me somehow, and I could spend hours following every crevice in the pavement on the way home from school... where now I couldn't care less. That is how I viewed the world as a child... but having matured since then those abilities have been lost as a result. Tripping makes you more aware of all the details that pass us by- and whether it's through drugs or natural causes, tripping is a great way to realize all the finer things around us that we normally take for granted :)

Justin Bieber

The ultimate archetype of everything that's wrong with the music industry. Country boy turned wannabe gangster. Succubus to legions of parasitic humanoids who feed off popularity, i.e tweens. Worshipped by armies of fans who wouldnt know a decent tune if it came up to them and slapped their face repeatedly with a wet fish. Also has a legion of haters who seem to realise this also. Doesn't know what Germany is. Has a weird crush on sex crazed Rihanna, exhibiting typical stalker behaviour. Is one of a growing number of music figures whose real talent is overshadowed by their ability to sell an image of 'the next big thing' (if any). A corporate tool for music companies who should get the hint and realise their marketable teenybopper trash is killing off what is left of decent music.

Dont you just want to punch Justin Bieber in the face when he states 'who wants to make out with me right now?' during his Never say Never video? I know I do...

Housewife Telly

Television shows usually watched by the stereotypical housewife. (note the word stereotypical, I'm not implying they all watch it). Some of these shows include:

The Jeremy Kyle Show
Katie and Peter: The Next Chapter
Katie and Peter: Stateside
What Katie Did Next
Kerry Katona: The Next Chapter
Big Brother
Gossip Girl
The Only Way is Essex

Basically any program that adheres to our modern culture of glamorised mediocrity. See also: Daytime Television

Woman: Oh look, Katy Price is moving on with her life, isn't that interesting dear?
Man: Hardly, now get that housewife telly off and put a decent program on...

School

Where the impressionable youth are indoctrinated to prepare them for exploitation by the established order.

The Man: Under the mores of the capitalist system you shall attend school. Through academic rewards and personal choice you will go forth and choose a suitable career, to which you shall persist for a substantial amount of time. A vast majority of the money you earn shall be given to the ruling class to keep us in power, and in return we shall sustain your need for this career so we can exploit you until such a time that your ailing health makes this practise immoral and you therefore become incapable of serving us. Once you retire you will no longer pose a threat to the system and our goal of keeping you blind to everything will have been achieved. Over the next few years you shall come to the realisation that despite the pleasures life has given you it is a hollow victory in the face of a reality where you could enjoy complete freedom. Although you now know the truth you shall no longer live to warn others of it, and the cycle which you became a part of shall endlessly repeat itself with the participation of subsequent generations. There are no exceptions and no escape. Our existence is built on this agenda: to keep you so devoid of possibility and/or alternatives that you submit and resign yourself to this reality, whether you agree to it or not.
