The Dink Network

I know all of us feel a need to compile some type of a list, but none of us want to be that lame person who starts the topic. I will be that person.

Here is the list I need to post:
Best long songs(6 minutes or longer)
In no particular order

Rage Against the Machine-Maggie's Farm
Kyuss-Fatso Forgotso
Led Zeppelin-Stairway to Heaven
Black Sabbath-Into the Void
Radiohead-Paranoid Android
Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five- The Message
Tool-Schism
Pink Floyd-Time
(I don't remember)-American Pie
I'm probably missing some songs so tell me what they are.

Proudest Monkey - Dave Matthews Band
Emotion Sickness - Silverchair
Free Bird - Lynyrd Skynyrd
Is This the End? - Creed

dang it's hot in here!

One - Metallica
The Glass Prison - Dream Theater
Aenima - Tool

The Goat Song-Adam Sandler

What I could think of off the top of my head:

Don McLean - American Pie, if you mean the original version
Tool songs - Third Eye ,Lateralus (the culmination of Tool's music and lyrics IMHO), Forty Six & 2, Push It (without the space), Disgustipated, and Parabola/Parabol.
Pink Floyd albums are essentially one song and not the same without listening to it all the way through, so I'd suggest the albums Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall.
Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata, 9th Symphony, 5th Symphony, everything Beethoven
Vivaldi - Four Seasons
The Doors - Riders on the Storm, The End
Jimi Hendrix - Little Wing (Extended version)
The Eagles - Hotel California
The Beatles - Hey Jude
Kyuss - Spiders and Vinegaroons
Eric Clapton (Derek and the Dominos) - Layla

And uh, yeah. That's all for now.

You guys can post some other lists too.

I forgot to mention
NOFX-The Decline
I know NOFX isn't known for making songs even longer than 3 minutes, but this is really long, in fact its longer than many punk albums(18 minutes).

Alright, argue about what the best movies of last year were. I nominate Gangs of New York.

Dumb and Dumberer all the way!

Last year, not this year. Besides, that was an awful movie.

I'm probably the only one who likes these songs:

Iron Butterfly - In a gadda de vida (17 mins.)
Richard Harris - MacArthur Park (7 mins, 25 secs)
The Doors - Light My Fire (7 mins, 5 secs)
Igor Stravinsky - Petrushka (9 mins, 52 secs)
Jackson Browne - Load Out and Stay (8 min, 59 sec)
Jeff Golub - Droptop (5 mins, 56 secs)
^ Hey, It's CLOSE!
So, yeah.

Films of last year...hmmm...I'm never sure what came out when...Gangs of New York was pretty funky though.

Police and Thieves- The Clash

I can't believe I forgot that song!
The Clash are awesome!

Ok, here's another debate:

Make a list of some things that piss you off
An example would be:
Dumb lists by safmoor
KI, especially when he talks
Dink Smallwood
WC(funny enough most things piss off WC)

you get the point

Melted ice cream, especially chocolate
Mosquitoes
Most people
The cast of friends
Anything that starts with a "U"
Pop up adds 's
DJ's, radio and cheesy occasion types
The jerks at Circuit City that have no idea what the (edit:[heck]didn't know the previously used word was copyrighted) they're talking about
Automated phone systems
The moron who stole my truck last week and left HIS wallet in it when he abandoned it (His parents should be forbiden to ever procreate again)
Spelling - usually my own
People that find it absolutely freaking neccessary to tap, bang or snore (yes snore) in class
That guy David that lives next door
Nearly anyone named Fred, Eunice or Wink
Mean, angry, hate filled list making people

Cloud Castle 2 pisses me of royally!

People who steal my words, especially "Feck"... I was saying "feck" long before I joined this network. Feh.

People who use tons of emoticons.

People.

When I'm walking down the hall in school and there are these groups of dumb preppy kids who just stand in the middle of the hall and talk and are like totally oblivious that *some* of us nerds have *classes* to get to...

when people online use those dumb abbreviations (ppl, u, r, c)... I find it difficult to believe that "r" is that much easier to type than "are."

Spelling errors (my own make me angrier than other people's...)

Braces (stupid inability to eat caramel...)

When you buy a used videogame at Gamestop or FunCoLand and they have the price sticker *directly* on the case, so if you want to remove it, you have to freaking scrub the adhesive off.

People who constantly and relentlessly talk about something that no one else cares about, especially if said something is a pet.

The letter "c"... it's a dumb exkuse for a letter. All it does is mimik the sounds of "k" and "s". If we just wrote everything with "k"s and "s"s, we wouldnt need "c"s. "Ch" would be problematik, though.

Uh... there are probably other things. But I dont really want to think about them anymore...

So millions of gen X and Yer's all over the world have you to thank for the word "feck"?
Yeah, sounds reasonable enough.

That three word game thread.

When people use umbrellas, and they turn around and jam you in the face with it.

When people use umbrellas, and you're walking on a street next to them, and the water just slides right off of their umbrella onto your legs and shoes.

Those frickin' umbrellas.

When I spent five weeks at a summer college and told everybody there that I missed home, but when I finally got back, I realized I miss home more than ever..

When that summer college is several states and it's likely that all the wonderful people I've met and befriended there I'll never see again.

Parting.

People who despise any religion.

Cigarettes.

Certain qualities I see evident in nearly every single person I've ever known.

When I make a list of things that pisses me off, and it brings me down lower than I was before the list.

Leaving things or people behind, even those I thought I had hated.

I dislike..

People that seem to turn into complete and utter jerks after their partners die.

McDonald's.

Many Dinkers, including ones who relentlessly bash newbies when they do something wrong.

XP's virtually nonexistant DOS support.

People who see it necessary to seek revenge on someone no matter the circumstance. Also, people who blame others for a dispute while keeping the dispute going strong. (Yes, I contradict myself somewhat. I'm sorry.)

Constant pessimists. (Again, I may be contradictory.)

Egomaniacs. (And again, maybe..)

Non-constructive criticism.

"Oh, well I have it worse.." Shut the hell up. Just because your life is more miserable than mine doesn't necessarily mean mine is good.

Poser punks. (Good afternoon, Kyle) (edit: not the dinker..!)

The local Radio Shack and its outrageous prices.

Heat.

Pop-up ads.

Police, and their uncanny ability to kill anyone and get away with it.(note: I'm not necessarily an anarchist.)

Large quantities of mayo/salad dressing.

Not being 100% sure if I've listed everything I dislike..

I've never heard nor seen "feck" anywhere else except when I started saying it; forgive me if I have trespassed against thee, o high and mighty evil one.

Tal, you might want to download "Cops Who Make Big F*cking Mistakes" off of Kazaa.

- The First Time I ever saw feck was on Conker's Bad Fur Day, and I doubt the developers ever went on to the dink network.

First time I heard it was when I was 8. My grandfather (who I don't think I ever saw sober) used the word quite often. Because of that my parents eventually stopped taking us to see him. Anyway, it is a very commonly used word among the Irish...he grew up in Ireland.

Trespassed? I thought this was an off-topic, silly discussion. It seems you are the offended one.

Wow! I am now a regular poster. It doesn't mean too much, but at least I don't spam. Well, most of the time I don't spam.

i dont have any punk albums under 18 minutes. i have maybe two eps under 18 minutes. do you listen to like 7 inches or something?

long songs:
accept: fast as a shark
dead kennedys: riot
minor threat: straitedge

this that piss me off:
sluts
speeders. people who drive with their arm hanging out the window
fanny packs
cider drinkers
fake boobs

Well, I read on the NOFX site about a classic Bad Religion album that was only 17 minutes long. And I don't think it's the only one that short, because alot of really old school punk albums were short. And if NOFX put out an album with only 8 songs, it could be only 17 or 18 minutes.

I just had to say, Why waste your time eating, sleeping, going to school, getting paid and getting laid when you could be listening to Johnny the Boy? But seriously, that is one awesome song that you should download from or just buy the Desert Sessions. That is a song everyone should at least listen to once.

-Seriously, don't just think of this as another dumb post. You might think me ignorant, idiotic, stupid or whatever, but you should definitely listen to this song.

What do you think is the best song title? I think "Satan is my Motor" is the best song name of a non-Turbonegro song.

How about a list of what posts should be killed?

Things I really dislike:

Whiners

Drunks

People at TDN who think they are all that (but they aren't)

Sundays (boring as beans)

Clean Freaks

People in the Express Checkout with MORE than the alloted items.

Anyone who doesn't no who Lynrd Skyrd is

Chicken, Pork and anything that lives in the water.

Nosey Neighbours

People who really beleive that there sh*t don't stink

Rap Music

My daughter's idiot boyffriend

Pop-Up Ad's

People who don't think that everyone has the right to speak freely, whether it's about religion/race or sexual orientation

WAR

>^..^<

I'll second all of those except for the Sunday one and the Chicken one.

Things I dislike:

The cry of a baby

Mondays

People who talks too much

People who ask too often

People who ask the same question over and over

People

People who critice me not in my presence

Chilli

Those nasty errors of Kernel32

Those nasty errors of Windows

Explorer failing

Dial-up

Pop-ups

Priests who think 'donating' is giving your money to them forcefuly

My own errors

People who ask me things they don't care of

People who insult me 'in my back'

Fees

Scholar fees

Adding to the scholar fees the 20% of their original cost yearly

People who think they earn everything, especially women

Drunk people

People who think they are smarter than me when they aren't

Windows 95

Crappy d-mods (including my own POP)

Freackly pessimist people (like me)

Freackly optimist people

Aggresive people

Non-constructive criticism

Dogs

My own spelling errors

Sad experiences

December 4th

Heavy jokes, those which enter deep in my heart

Huh, knowing I have more thing that I hate, and not remembering them

When anime cartoons get too cheesy or pu$$y

People who think they can stand a joke and cannot

People who can't stand a joke, but makes jokes (maybe I fit on this)

People who tells other people what the other people don't care

People who thinks they have never done any damage on me when they did

EDIT: Oh, an important thing here: People who always think about something 'sexy' when you tell them something and didn't specify alright. (i.e You made some school project with a friend wich is female. You tell another friend "I did it with her.", and automatically instead of understanding it was the project, he thinks you did it with your female friend.

*SIGH* This list is LONG, maybe will never end.

Alli : HAve you never seen "Father Ted"? They say feck in that...and it's very funny to boot.

What else pisses me off...

Most american sports

Blood Blisters

Hammered teenage girls who sutmble into my pub screeching "I'm so wasted, blah blah blah, I don't give a f**k lbah blah blah, someone give me a cigarette!"

People who you let in to your life, and they stab/beat you in/over the heart/head with a knife/bat/chainsaw/harpoon.

N00b's who do'nt try. I don't mind those who learn, and don't get all abrasive when you try to help.

Religions.

AOL

Fishermen : Just LEAVE ME ALONE!!

Hammered teenage girls who sutmble into my pub screeching "I'm so wasted, blah blah blah, I don't give a f**k lbah blah blah, someone give me a cigarette!"

You have a pub? You're a little young to be owning such an establishment, aren't you?

Father Ted was fecking great!
Too bad that guy is dead now

Dinkmega: Just about all of those things are Microsoft's fault. Now you understand why I don't like Microsoft?

Sabre, I haven't seen Father Ted, but I'll have to now.

People who you let in to your life, and they stab/beat you in/over the heart/head with a knife/bat/chainsaw/harpoon.
*is overly amused*

I honestly don't know who "Lynrd Skyrd" is, but there's this band named "Lynyrd Skynyrd" that does some decent southern rock.

Maybe it's Leonard Skynard?

Heh, I don't actually own the pub, though I wish I did! I refer to my local pub, as my local. And if it's what you meant, I am old enough to drink.

though the girls in question weren't...

OK my spelling is bad too , and me with their CD right in front of me. Tal is right,it's Lynyrd Skynyrd...maybe you'll recall the song *Sweet Home Alabama* ?

>^..^<

I've heard of Lynyrd Skynyrd, but I have tired of it. For the first 12 years of my life, 99% of the music I heard was classic rock because I didn't buy cds and that radio station was the best one in town.
-I get kind of annoyed when I hear "Sweet Home Alabama".

Yeah, I feel the same way about "Hotel California". That song is so overrated.

That's kinda the way I feel about the bands with "One Hit Wonders". Hmmm...

Best One Hit Wonder:

Kung Fu Fighting from Carl Douglas!!

I can't help but agree with Dukie.

Sadly, neither can I!

"At The Drive In" are the best one hit wonders. Kung Fu fighting is a song that will be remembered forever, though.

at the drive in had a hit???????

"One Armed Scissor" was never on top 40, but it was on the rock charts. You'd have to be pretty lame to never have heard that song before. Too bad they broke up.

ive never heard that song, you are calling me lame??? you jerk. i have only heard like two songs from that band and they are pretty good, but not really what i am into.

I've never heard of that song either - though I'm not exactly an audiophile. I agree with joshriot - you are a jerk.

If it bothers you, don't listen to what I say.

(Teenagers....jeeze)

I've only heard of about 2 of those songs. Oh, Chumbawumba has another hit song - I get knocked down. Remember? It was a hit sometime around 1998.

Also, Kat - Disco died. Or is that news just getting to you in Canada *now*?

How about:

Mambo No. 5
by Lou Bega

True, Lou Bega has other songs, but nobody really knows about *them* now, do they?

And, The above are classics, and I'm probably the only geek who has them on my computer.

I don't know the names of any other Lou Bega songs, but one of my friends bought his cd. Also, I have heard before that "Mambo No.5" was actually a cover.
-Tubthumping was the only hit by Chumbawumba, it said "I get knocked down" in the song.
-Contrary to popular opinion, Canadiens are way ahead of us. When the ice age comes, and all of us are playing football, baseball, soccer, and basketball, the canadiens will laugh at our freezing while they play hockey.

whats funny is if you know what chumbawamba spent the money it made off of that hit song on. they are anarchists.

Although it doesn't quite compare to Ice hockey (obviously), playing football (soccer) in the british winter is pretty dang harsh. I've ripped myself to shreds ENOUGH times.
I have always wanted to try Ice-hockey though...looks fun.

You poor englander...Never played ice hockey? Never even been skating?? Yes, ice hockey is cool, and that statement is two-sided...

Terry Jacks - Seasons in the Sun

*drifts into wistful nostalgia again*

Hey! Now don't go insulting *me* now. Here where I live, an ice cube melts in less than 3 minutes. How long do you think an ice rink would last? It'd be lucky if it would be half-an-hour.

Indoor hockey rinks do exist in places where snow is a sign of the apocalypse, and you can play in-line hockey too, although it usually isn't as rough.

Heh, there's one about 45 minutes away ... in the poor part of town. Too bad, it would be a nice place to "chill".

Though I wish I had played Ice-hockey, football is the best sport in the world. Soccer that is, not that silly amercian game.

Here, when its warm we just play floor/street hockey. Its great. We've tried to organanize a competition but we've never finished a season, and its been running for the last 6 years. Too much violence they say.
Now really, it was just one little fight... no need to nuke the entrie tourny... hehe

I guess its about time I do my hate list, so here it is:

Brand Label clothing(Tommy Hilfiger, Old Navy, any type of clothing that is really just advertising for a company)
Dragon Ball Z
Michael Jackson and in general, pop music
Dumb PG-13 movies(I remember when it used to be dumb R movies)
Plumber's Crack, or any man asscrack for that matter
Disney Movies(They're not always that bad, but they always seem to have the exact same plot in different settings)
Showtunes
99% of Musicals
George W. Bush
California Elections(Any election that has 135 people running has become a joke)
Michael Savage
Rush Limbaugh
Hicks(I know plenty)
Jim Norton
Howard Stern(I only hate him about half the time)
Biology(making you collect bugs and leaves)
Pokemon
Bring It On(I think I hate that movie more than almost any other)
People who borrow 70$ and dont pay you back(not for a long time anyway)
Virgin Record Store for not even having some of Kyuss's greatest albums, and not having Queens of the Stone Age debut
Alot of the dinkers from time to time(I won't name names)
Professional Wrestling(mostly because I'm not strong like them and I don't get paid to fake injuries)
America and pretty much the world, so there, everyone hates everyone and for that reason there isn't any true prejudice
- I almost forgot, I hate the XBOX, I don't hate the gamecube because I loved the 64 "back in the day".

How can you hate Michael Jackson? He is a superstar!

And the X-BOX rocks!

things i hate: people who spend too much time caring about stupid shoot.

Doesn't that include Dink?
