I never thought that when someone busted my car antenna it would make my life better.
At some point, during the downfall of humanity, we somehow got around 100 country music stations in west Michigan. In my car, I get four radio stations, only one of which is country, so it is pretty easy to avoid. Unfortunately, whenever I get in another vehicle, I am typically assaulted by country music. In case you aren’t following, I don’t like country music, nor have a ever. The fact that it is rapidly gaining popularity completely baffles me. However, the fact that country music exists would not warrant this post.
My problem, is that if you get in someones car that has country music, you cannot just hit seek to get away. It seems that ever 0.2 you move on the dial you hit yet another country station. I was not even aware there was enough country music to warrant so many stations. I often find my self hitting seek for the first several minutes as I travel just trying to get to something other than country.
This is why I have become a fan of the knob. However, many of the newer audio systems only have the digital seek buttons. So, you are trapped jumping from crappy station to crappy station.
I have resorted to such extreme techniques as hitting power, or mute in order to spare my fragile ears. Unfortunately, the pounding silence is slightly worse than enduring country music for a minute or two to find something decent.
If anyone has any recommendations for a way to quickly get away from country let me know. I think what I need to do is map out “safe frequencies” so I can immediately find the shortest route out of country land.
In case anyone is wonder what exactly the picture of Katherine Heigl has anything to do with what I just said, well, I figured that I would make this a structural commentary on country music. As, I perceive it to be a combination of one or more hot girls in combination with incoherent rambley words.
this is the best post you have ever done
1) because country music does suck dick
3) Katherine Heigl has great boobs
I wonder what #2 on that list was going to be.
Also, I never thought I would top that last 24 post.
Just wondering what amazing script runs the “toggle width” link… very cool.
Yeah, it is just a little moo.fx script I threw together to fade out the sidebar and expand the content section.
You anti-country people are a bunch of idiots. You think that every song is about screwing your sister (which I’ve still yet to see any song on that topic) and being cheated on (which accounts for roughly 3% of all country songs). All that metal is a cranked up amplifier with a piece of shit guitar pattern involving 1 power chord played over and over and over. Your excuses for hating country is that it’s “Gay” and “Stupid”. WOW!!! Those are some heavy words there jackoff. Country music is gay and stupid , OUCH!!! There’s only two gay cowboys in the world and they live on Brokeback Mountain, (they’re probably gangbanger rappers and emo goths, not cowboys.) There’s no way that a rap or a death metal song could express as much emotion as a country song does. Brad Paisley has more soul and passion in the fingernail of his pinkie finger than Marilyn Manson does in his entire body.
You ignorant fuck. I’ll give you a good example why cuntry music sucks.
The “band” Glori(hole)ana sounds like lame ass warmed over Rick Springfield from the 80′s. It’s pop music for little girls. Maybe you are a little girl with a dirty mouth, who the hell knows….. Or better yet “i gotta friend from new york city, he never heard of conway twitty” He probably HAS heard of him, like a bad memory he has blocked it out. At least I don’t walk around imitating a cowboy with the boots & hats. Why don’t you rednecks dress like blacksmiths instead…..cowboys would’ve been walking without blacksmiths.
You stupid hick!Let me guess,your name is probably Bill,since half the hillbilly rednecks in this contry share that name,you probably have about an 8th grade education,are missing half your teeth,walk with dirty bare feet,live in a trail,and worship the civil war flag.You people make me sick!You give Americans a bad name!You are all on wellfar and disability,live like your in a third world country and don’y know how to respect anyone.I wish the Government would take all you losers and ship you ooff to another country.How dare you cure and attack some young girl in such an ignorant fashion simply because she does not like country music?You have no cooth,no personality and are dead from the neck up.I know you rednecks all too well.You all think that you are as tuff as nails,and yankees are pussies!Well let me school you Jethro,I would f–k you up so bad,you would be praying to God!
By the way this comment is to metalman for his ignorant,and inappropriate behavior.
Country sucks ass
get a life listen to LIL WAYNE
Lil Wayne?
is that joke cuz i rather listen to taylor swift for 3 days than to a fag w/ no flow, wack lyrics, and is fake as fuck
FUCK YOU
Get off bradleys nutts buddy country music is an excuse for lack of talent n for retards who cant get over their ridiculous accent country music should only be for the hearing impaired…
Country music is the worst genre of music in the history of mankind.. First off, every country song I’ve heard, the “artists” all sound the fucking same.. That excruciatingly irritating hillbilly white trash twang.. You all think that there is some “heritage” behind your culture and lyrics, but truth is, it’s just a bunch of nonsensical rants of a moron who has no idea what the world is really like.. Get real man.. Why do I care to listen to a dumb redneck talking about the dog in his backyard or the pick up in his driveway? Who cares about a redneck trash retard bitch that thinks a fucking TRACTOR IS SEXY? I don’t care if you said you wouldn’t call but because your a drunk whore you called a quarter after 1. Shit is ridiculous!
Some of you idiots think that city folk are “close minded” because we don’t like to listen to your dumb redneck talk, and all the subjects of life you like to sing about. Well, you ever think that city folk think you’re a bunch of dumb simpleton fucktards that listen to this senseless “music”? It’s pointless.. Take your lost heritage and shove it up your tractor…
Country music “artists” will sing just about anything and everything they possibly can and convey it in the most irritating way possible. Also, country music is “simple and straight to the point” because them retards don’t have enough intellect to insert deeper or hidden meanings behind their music. It’s boring, shitty, and talentless. Plus, I just can’t stand that despicable hillbilly accent.. It’s disgusting!
A lot of you like to compare hip hop/rap being shittier, more pointless, and degrading, violent blah blah blah. Fact is, and as much as I hate to admit, good/real hip hop has pretty much gone downhill these days. You have morons like lil wayne, drake, and all these other dumb little kids rapping and meaningless shit thats all the same. The only reason why all this is becoming more and more popular is because kids these days don’t know what life is about. “Gettin’ in the club, but you can’t and I gets money, I got bitches” Blah blah blah.. its all because kids like retarded shit. The true cold hard fact is that the real, good rappers are able to draw pictures in your mind, speak of higher causes other than being violent and degrading women, uplift the people around them, and come up with lyrical content that absolutely no country music “artist” can muster in a lifetime.
At this time, I can really only name a few truly good rappers. That would be Nas, Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Lupe Fiasco, and Saigon. No other music genre has the lyrical genius that these few men have. NONE.
Bob, did you even read my post? Your retort is completely off base and out of touch with reality.
Whats even worse then country? POP COUNTRY omg i have to hear this crap at work 8 hours a day and i HATE IT.
Reasons why its dumb.
He wants to check you for ticks
his son said a 4 letter word it started with an s and “he was concerned”
She thinks his tractors sexy
No shoes, no shirt… no problem. WTF?
Nuff said right there.
Taylor swift is hot and sucking at singing, but shes hot like 90% of them, save us the pain and just pose and stop singing !
Have you ever ACTUALLY listened to any of those songs you listed? Probably not. If you have then you would know that the songs ticks and she thinks my tractor sexy are actually about love. The song about the son is about how a son looks up to his father and watches everything he does. And no shoes is about relaxing and having a good time with someone you love. How can you honestly tell me that choking on a microphone and rapping about your ride and how many times you got shot up or how you beat you woman and downgrading women is music? That right there my friend is what really discusses me.
Yeah yeah okay you think that your genre signs about the right themes and they it is pure and simple and yeah yeah we all realize that there is a lot of rap out there that has awful themes that are indeed degrading to women and promote senseless violence. He never once suggest that this kind of rap was better than country; sure all music has it’s place, rock for angsty teenages, rap for troubled violent youths so honestly your comment on this really had no relevance. The purpose for his article was to address the inexplicable fact that country music is rising in popularity. This baffles me as well. I mean, i understand that you think these songs are all pure and good because they are about love and what not, but the way these themes are conveyed are so terrible that it overwhelms me. She thinks his tractor’s sexy may be about love but it is still talking about it using tractors as a metaphor, or possible literally, from what i’ve seen metaphor isn’t a common tool in country music (which is partially what makes it so bad, everything is straight forward put simply and obviously in front of you that it is painful, all subtleties are removed from the music and it is simply some guy talking about some glorified experience he had all over the repetitive, simplistic, and painful twang of the steel guitar. it is so simple it’s maddening. If you try to find a deeper meaning in the lyrics you will fail every time because there is no deeper meaning than, im sad, i enjoy drinking beer with mah girl, my son looks up to me. but i digress). The guy is still using tractors literally or metaphorically to talk about love and simply doing that is enough to make the song terrible. I mean, how uninspired do you have to be to take an emotion like love and express it as a tractor, it’s kind of insulting really. Anyway, my basic point is, while country my share common themes with other genre’s, the lyrics and the music are both so mind numbingly simplistic that there really isn’t anything to it. Leaving the genre, more commonly than not, looking like uninspired, unintelligent shit storm of bad vocals and over used rhythmic patters. but like i said, all music has it’s place and that holds true with country music; the unintelligent, uninspired, and untalented musicians appealing to so many people that are just the same as them. Simple music for simple minds.
Every musical genre varies greatly and is not for everyone. It is very easy to generalize and stereotype all music in a genre as one thing or another (like all rap is “gangsta”). When it comes down to it, you like what you like. So…if “country” “sucks”…what kind of music do you actually enjoy listening to? I’m willing to listen.
Right on!! Country does suck, it always did suck even more then ever when I was a teen. I always enjoyed rock and even the new rock stuff today, not into rap anymore then country, but most country makes me puke! Let’s stomp out country red-neck puke music in our lifetime.
BTW, did I veer tell you how much I hate country???
I LOVE Ricky Van Shelton,Eddie Rabbitt,Johnny Duncan,Vince
Gill,Big&Rich and a lot of classic Country,but a lot of this new
stuff BLOWS CHUNKS!!!!!!And former WCW babe Lady
Blossom and The Spice Girls’ Mel B. have big boobs!!!!!!!!
(Which is why this 54-year-old black Canadian lad is bonkers over U.K. lasses.)
wow I couldn’t agree more. I think I know why there’s so many country stations.
1. rednecks can’t afford cd players/ tape players
2. they don’t know how to use them even if they could afford them
3. radios come standard in pick up trucks.
4. all country songs have a reference to listening to other country music on a radio in the song hence they subconsciously think that’s just the only way.
5. they have gay buttsex
I have to listen to country quite often at work and it’s gay and people that listen to it are absolute rednecks and all they talk about is getting a new truck and how much gay buttsex they had the previous weekend.
If I were you I would get a zune(b/c ipods are for people who like to get ripped off and have their media locked so you can’t even copy it to another computer or do anything you would actually want to with it).
Dude,I’m trying to be a Country singer/songwriter,the next Charlie Pride(I cer-
tainly don’t sing a fiftieth as well as “The Pride Of The Country,”but I AM re-
garded as classically handsome and I look great in cowboy garb.After all,
if Darius Rucker(“Hootie” of “Hootie And The Blowfish”)can launch a belated
career as a black Country singer,perhaps I can also.
Country music does in fact suck cock. There is no doubt it is the worst form of music known to man. I would rather listen to Gregorian Chant on repeat for 11 hours than have to hear one worthless fucking country song.
To the asshole several posts up going on about “soul” and some fag named Brad Paisley, it’s easy to have “soul” when someone else writes your songs. There are millions of dipshits out there who can play a guitar and sing, but it takes actual talent to be able to write a good song (which no country artist can, since it’s country music.)
Since you mentioned gangbanger rappers and emo goths, i’ll say that I believe that both rap and emo suck ass as well. However, most of those emo douchebags do in fact write their own music and many rappers do in fact write their own raps, so that alone makes them more talented than most country artists which have their songs written by someone else.
When it comes down to it, there is no denying that country music just flat out sucks fucking balls. If I had the desire, I could probably take my adequate guitar playing skills and mediocre voice to a songwriter, tell him to write me a country song and become famous. However, i’d rather rip my dick off and throw it in a river than play country music.
To rideablackcowboy, I don’t mean to be rude, but I sincerely hope that you fail in your quest to become a country singer. I only say that because I hope you find success somewhere that will benefit mankind, not hinder it. And just for the record, Darius Rucker can only launch his belated country career because of his successful career as a rock singer. Hopefully he’ll return from the dark side, as he has a great voice.
Did you proof read your post there smart guy? Pathetic…
More subjective BS. I bet that all who agree with this moron probably voted Obama and agree with him and Geithner that government should fix our problems. Your just too lazy like the rest of the country to do manual labor and have to have things RIGHT NOW. Impatient, imcompetent, impotent, dungeons and dragons playing slothful losers. I’d pick country any day over the music you listen to. Probably some type of sad bastard music or hardcore anti-social rap/rock.
Brad Paisley’s 5-3,122 lb.,I’m 5-10,212 lb.Add my looks,even at 55,and abil-
ity to write REALLY GOOD lyrics,and I’ve got little Brad beat six ways to
Sunday!!!!(And in that song,”I’m Still A Guy”-though I’m a girl’s size-Brad’s
“girlfriend” would be BEGGING me to lat it down with her BUT GOOD if I not
little Brad,were in that video with her!!!!!)
I am a lifetime country music fan. I mostly like the older country from the 60′s and 70′s. There’s always been two kinds, of what they call “country music”. There is the soft corporate, calculated, recycled, shit… Then there’s the “real stuff” that is different, innovative, creative and unique.
the reason the “real” music is almost NEVER heard on the radio is because the coporations that own the record companies and invest the money in new artist ..know NOTHING about real talent and real art. So becuase they know NOTHING about art and everything about making money… they are simply reducing RISK and insuring a RETURN on their investment.
…they have the least amount of risk in investing in artist who are similar to those artist who have already succeeded with a particular style, image or approach.
This has KILLED music everywhere and not just Country music…EVERY type of music made (through a major record company) like SONY, ARISTA, ATLANTIC, CAPITOL(appropriately named LOL), RCA…etc, etc…
is Calculated, Premeditated, Recycled, Reloaded and shot again CRAP!
The real music is in the small bars all over the country made by people who make music because it just “What they do” and they aren’t playing to be FAMOUS.
GOOD music is still out their, but most of will never hear it because of the fucked up world we live in
Well I wouldn’t say country music is gay…but I would say that it sucks hairy man penis and makes me wanna puke out my ass and into my nostrils…so it’s bisexual at best. I cannot travel with my mother or her boyfriend anymore because all they do is listen to country music, all my grandmother did all my childhood was listen to country music, some of my friends even listen to country music. It’s poison to my ears and slowly turns my brain to cow shit. I always knew pop music sucked, but ANYTHING is better than country music. It’s talentless, tasteless, and devoid of intelligence. If I had to choose between reenacting Brokeback Mountain or listening to 90 minutes of country music…..I’d probably just kill myself so I wouldn’t have to make that choice because both would ruin me forever. Country music makes cancer look fun. I shouldn’t call it country music, I should call it country horse shit, there’s no music, there’s nothing clever or thoughtful about it, it’s repetetive and headache inducing. I’m serious, people who like country music have no real taste in music, if they had a taste for something it’d be for horse shit, country horse shit. Country is the steadily growing cancer of society, it was made extremely bland so it’s safe for work with grannies who hate anything with talent and hillbillies with severe antisemitic views too. If they ever played country music at your school dance make sure to locate the DJ and castrate him in a methodical manner. True story, I almost shouted “country sucks” at this hootinany but I’d imagine that they would have raped my ears deaf and kept going until cum spewed out of every orifice of my body. If you think life sucks now then you have either just listened to a country song or have yet to discover the horrors of country and realized how horrific life really is. It’s great to express my hate for something everyone should hate.
this seriously made water come out my nose i was laughing so hard.
Agreeable here again, just to say that…Hey, I’m from West Michigan too, what a coincidence! Is country music just a phenomenon that happens in West Michigan or is this a pandemic? Should I be vaccinating my kids for country music, the new AIDS? Well I don’t have kids yet but if I had some and they liked country music I’d disown them, actually I’d take that one step further and build a time machine to go back and castrate myself at the horror that I could produce such idiotic, stupid, dumb-fuckish jerkoffs from my own seed. Country music is the fucking antiChrist. Country music is shit, it’s shit taking a shit and I won’t stand for it. Put two retarded, inbred, mutant, zombie babboons in one room and record the sounds of them having passionate sex and put in some twangy guitar plucks…there’s just about every country hit single plus one, it’ll top the charts for years to come for country music fans. You know antimatter is the opposite of matter? Country music is the opposite of talent. I would like to say that there is nothing sexy about tractors, they are machines and if you are sexually excited by a hunk of metal then lady, you need help. What if I broke your achy breaky heart…with my bare fist? Square dancing is made for those that suck at life…sorry my witty remarks meter is running low. How can you spare the horse and straddle apon cowboys? I don’t see any cowboys, just assholes who can’t sing without their voices cracking. I seriously doubt this is what REAL cowboys were singing in the 1800s. You’re from Texas? Only steers and queers come from Texas and you don’t look much like a steer so that pretty much narrows it down. No offense for Texans, but all offense to country musicians, just pulling off a movie quote. Here’s a joke, what’s more disgusting than three cowboys taking a shit on the same spot and puking on that pile of shit? Those same cowboys trying to form a band. It’s funny because it’s true. Actually, most people I tell that to don’t even think it’s a joke but take it as fact, like they read it in some book and were like “Interesting, I did not know that.”. Okay here’s a new one…What’s loud, and dumb, and full of shit? Your mom. Oh yeah I forgot to add that your mom listens to country music, forgot that finer detail…okay yeah that one sucked, fuck you and everything you stand for, I can’t take criticism well.
Hey
I hate Country 2
what i would suggest u listen 2 is HipHop and RnB
Nearly all hiphop and rnb songs are brilliant
none of them have that whiney tone that country songs have
My mother listened to country music once, she died. Cockry just sucks that bad.
A man decided to go down to the morgue. Once inside he uncovers the first stiff and notices there is a cork in it’s ass. He thought it quite strange, so he pulled it out and music started playing! “…On the road again, just can’t wait to get on the road
again…”
He freaked out and ran to get the Medical Examiner and dragged him back to the table.
“Look!” he said, and pulled the cork out again. “…On the road
again…”
The Medical Examiner is totally unimpressed saying “So what?”
“Isn’t that the most amazing thing you’ve ever seen?” the man asked.
“Are you kidding?” replied the Medical Examiner. “Any asshole can
sing country music!”
Country hater, that joke was seriously awesome! thanks for the good laugh
I agree that country sux
Country music is like this to me: Remember the old TV classic “Gunsmoke” ? This is the dress code. The old west. Or maybe the local rodeo star. Hello? Can’t they be a bit more consistent with the times? I mean com’on, do you see people walking around dressed like Paul Revere? I think not. To me, a good example of a country artist is this poor dude with an undersized penis, who was made fun of and he once sang in the high school choir. (this may be a country cop as well) He wore Wranglers like the last 3 generations of his family did and dreamed of owning a truck. After a few years of auditions he landed a deal on a recording label.
But the most important aspect of succeeding with all this, was “playing the part”..being a country bumpkin and learning how to sing with a stupid ass “twang”. Plus aquire a cowboy-like name like “Bud West” or some shit. Seriously. If you really give a good listen to a lot of country on the radio (and have any musical expertise) you’ll recognize that it’s an abundance of ripped off rock progressions or recycled shit-kicking arrangements that they’ve been doing for years. And it sells to folks who love “good wholesome music”. What a fucking crock. They all feature that “twang”, even if the singer was raised in say, Denmark. And the tunes are utterly predictable. Not to say that all country guitarists are bad, many are quite skilled. But that’s as far as it goes with me. BTW, ever see a drummer in a country band look enthused? Here you will notice the most bored person on the planet. Being a drummer, I’ve often felt sorry for them. It’s an industry tailored for rednecks, plain and simple. The following things basically remind me of country music: I walk through the front door of a neglected, country-ass home. As I hear “98.1 Counrty” playing on a nearby JC Penney stereo, I can’t help but smell the ever present aroma of stale beer and the stench of dirty diapers. And I think to myself, “I’m sure glad this isn’t my life here”. This is what Country represents to me.
Cuntry music gives me a brain rash. It sucks balls and chugs cum. If you like cuntry music, then you are a moron, end of story, and I mean END OF STORY. MORON!!!
Oh, and fuck you.
REAL country music doesn’t suck. Its just that there has never been a real country song made since 1990. Every before then was really good. That garbage they play on the radio today that they call “country” is nothing of the kind. Its a hijacking. A bunch of no-talent bums who couldnt write a real hit if their life depended on it.
give me good ole black sabbath any day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It’s not that country music “sucks” because if it did it would have absolutely no fans. It’s that if you don’t want to hear country music (as I do not) you REALLY DON’T WANT TO HEAR COUNTRY MUSIC. The annoying characteristics of the genre are so pronounced in every song that it’s the equivalent of nails on a chalkboard to me. That retarded hick accent that the singers don’t even have in real life, the twangy steel guitar (seriously can there be one country song that doesn’t use a steel guitar? One?), and the subject matter (tractors, jeans, dogs, etc) all culminate into a smörgåsbord of pain for my ears. This mainly applies to what was once called “young country” in my mind because I rather like artists like Johnny Cash. In fact if you can honestly say you hate Johnny Cash simply because you hate country music, you are probably ignorant and have no grounds for commenting on American music.
I can’t stand country music because they goddamn bitch about how much life sucks. I call it bitch music. It’s not just country music that sucks, it’s most of today’s music. Rap sucks for pretty much the same reason country sucks. The music and entertainment industry in this country doesn’t give a fuck about art. They’re only in it for the $. Plus, the industry thinks anybody who likes today’s entertainment is between 2 and 25; therefore, they cater only to that market. I’m a musician, and I know what music sounds like. Another reason why I can’t stand today’s music is because there’s no talent; thanks to technology, so called artist take the easy way out and let a computer do all the work. Plus, today’s music is depressing, not just rap and country. It’s obvious, people today just don’t know how to be happy. If they could take away the singing; then country music would be a joy to listen to.
Country music doesn’t suck because of what It’s lyrics are expressing, it sucks because it sounds HORRIBLE.
I find it quite hilarious to read all these posts about the “degenerate” nature of country music..especially when the authors of the aforementioned posts have such a hard time with correct spelling. It’s tedious, I know. How can you honestly say that country music sucks???..that leads me to assume that you believe Lil Wayne, Kesha, Nirvana, Metallica, Lady Gaga, Buckcherry, Soulja Boy, and the countless other flavor of the day R&B acts are legitimate artists. That is the biggest pile of fecal matter ever digested out of some Jersey Shore wanna-bes that I have ever heard. Maybe it’s the gel?..or the incessant tanning? Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. How many of you even have a college degree? For your information, we do not all live in trailers..in fact..Texans, I would say, listen to predominantly country music..and we are in better shape financially than just about any other state. Our economy has held up a great deal better than..oh, say Califonia..Texas is full to the brim of its 10 gallon Stetson with intelligent businessmen/women. How come? Do some research and I believe you will find that the lowest income areas and sub par education in America are not full of country music fans. The South Bronx? The 9th Ward? Camden? Is it just me or would Conway Twitty not be a big draw in those areas? Neighborhoodscout.com listed the 100 worst performing public school programs in America..WOW!! Texas…the largest state in the continental U.S. …which is full of those “degenerate” county musicians and fans..did not make it on the list..In fact, the majority where from Northern cities. Is it raps fault? Of course not! Is it rocks fault? Of course not! However, as far as in music being detrimental to society, rap and rock tend to glorify habits and practices that are damaging to one’s community and one’s self. I cannot stand it when people from the North fancy themselves as some sort of uberclass. These people you are downing are everday Americans. They are the ones farming this land and keeping your mouth fed, busting their asses on an oil rig because they are not afraid to work to take care of their family, starting businesses that will buy your savvy little biz out when it fails, helping others in their community when they are down on their luck. In any state you will find a wide array of people. Some good and some bad. You have every right to dislike country music. You have NO right to generalize the people. That makes you the ignorant one. I am not trying to be disrespectful..I apologize if I came off as such. God made everyone and we are all of a common thread..the amazing part of it all is that we each have our own set of ideals that make us unique. I will never criticize you for the genre of music you listen to. I listen to just about everything. Country is the music that moves me. If that makes me an idiot..well, then I am an idiot!(that knows the importance of having their facts straight and spelling words correctly when posing an argument)
BTW-Brad Paisley writes about 90% of his lyrics. Even if Bob Dylan had only written one line of one song and just gave up..it’s better than a million Soulja Boy Records..as far as lyrical talent. You cannot disagree with that. Sex, Murder, Drug Abuse, Suicide, satan worship, Reducing women to sex objects, Beating women and endorsing Crime are far better than talking about Love, Family, Struggles, Faith, Morals, heck even the occaisonal hokey tractor song. Sarcasm!
Oops I found two spelling errors..I left out an r in country..and an i in occasional.
and i put “where” instead of my intended “were”. it was 4:52 in the morning
I moved to texas from NY.. True story, most texans are mildly retarded. I can really only speak for the San Antonio area, but yea, the mild retardation stands. People in texas are terrible drivers. No sarcasm or exaggeration at all, right when I entered texas from Tennesee, people started driving worse and worse as I got deeper into texas. People here need state-wide driving lessons. You are all afraid of your own speed limit, you stop and rubberneck on the highway because someone is pulled over on the side of the highway going the OPPOSITE DIRECTION. Very few texans understand the “fast lane” concept, and I reckon that those who do respect the fast lane are probably from out of state. Country music is talentless.
I’ve encountered quite a few ignorant rednecks who were born and raised in small town areas that are racially close minded. Also, texans are probably some of the most ignorant people I’ve met. I’ll give you one thing though, texans are surprisingly friendly and not as rude as those you’ll encounter on an everyday basis in NY. That’s just about the only credit I’ll give texans.
texas really only has 3 major cities, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, with San antonio being the worst out of the 3. The metropolitan area in san antonio is pathetic at best.. In the whole city, you have one area thats really alive and popping which would be the Riverwalk. Other than that, the rest of the metropolitan area is a ghetto ghost town with buildings and building designs that look like they havent been updated since the late 80′s early 90′s.. Don’t even try to tell me they’re trying to “preserve” the culture and heritage and the old boringness of it all. It’s just an excuse for being so absolutely lame.. Texans are too proud of their state for whats really a no good reason. It’s so cheap to live there that you better not be homeless or poor, otherwise you might as well end your life.
Most southern stereotypes of dumb ignorant fucktard rednecks you hear from us Northern folk are pretty much all based on texas and not many other southern states.
This one would fit right in: “Well I’m Proud-To-Be-an-Ass-Hole-from El Paso.”
The reason I can’t stand Country music is that it is just BORING. Good musicians can’t make up for that. I am very well-rounded musically and have given Country a chance. I cannot dance to it or even get excited about most of it. To be fair, Big And Rich’s “Save a Horse, Ride A Cowboy” is tolerable. Jace Everett’s “Bad Things” is an awesome song but it is really a Blues tune, not Country(even though he is a Country artist).
I listen to about everything under the sun. Yes…I do listen to Hip Hop. Mostly old school or very creative artists. Not Lil Wayne! Garbage! He’s as bad as Country to me. However, at least Hip Hop has some stuff that is very, very good. Can’t say the same about Country.
Rock still has some great tunes.
The number one thing about music, to me…If it can’t make you get up and move….It ain’t good music.(God, I miss the Funk era of R&B from the 70′s and early 80′s. Sigh.
I used to work graveyard at a convenience store. The lady that I had to work with – one of those that shave off her eyebrows and then paint them back on – forced me to listen to country music. I began to notice that this particular station would announce the weather every 20 min. So one night I stopped and said to this lady “Hey, I just figured out why this radio station announces the weather so often”. When she asked why, I answered, “That way it gives the simple-minded people that listen to country something to talk about.” BOOM!!
typical country haters. you can’t be a good indie kid and like country i suppose….
I absolutely hate country music with a passion, sounds like dying cats to me.
My solution to country music, you get an FM modulator from thinkgeek.com, a cheap mp3 player and put your MP3 collection on random and set the dial to a clear frequency (or a station that you can drown out). Also gets by those commercials.
Works great at family events too, I speak from experience.
Bob,I’m a life-size Brett action figure,i.e.,a boyishly handsome,57-year-old black Canadian lad said to resemble a handsome black cowboy-I’m 5’8”,218 lb.,171/2” biceps,so think steer wrestler or “bull-dogger,” -and as a sometimes Country lyricist(if you’d give me your e-mail address,I’ll send you some examples of my 100+ Country lyrics which span the gamut from Traditional Country to rockabilly to cowboy songs to ballads,and I’ll bet I could write better material(and likely sing as well) as little Brad Paisley!!!
By the way,isn’t little Brad Paisley 5’4”,118 lb.? If so,he’s four inches shorter
and 100 lb. lighter than I.(and nowhere nearly as good-looking!!!)
metalman,I’m into metal(AC/DC,Sabbath,Poison,Twisted Sister,Quiet Riot,Zeppelin,etc.)but I LOVE COUNTRY!!!!(well,NOT the jingoistic crap some of those Bubbas put out to attempt to build/salvage their career after Sept.11,2001.)And,as noted above,I wouldn’t mind making some ca$h writing Country lyrics!!!
Texas,the “salt of the earth” you describe(FAR TOO OFTEN Southern ones)
are backing the racist,crypto-fascism-excusing-if not in some cases ACTUAL-
LY SUPPORTING-Tea Partiers,voting for a biigoted,union-and working-class-hating,misogynistic,homophobic (have I omitted some of their prejudices?)
“Rethuglican” Party,attempting to deny that the U.S. Civil War was about the continued enslavement of African Americans(full disclosure:When my mother was 10,in 1927,she met her great-grandfather-MY great-great-grandfather;
AN ESCAPED SLAVE FROM MARYLAND!!!),spewing the term “forced integration” as a code for support of racial segregation.That said,I LOVE
Country music-and those buxom cowgirl who can be found at Lone Star State bars.(Texas,one question:are these luscious ladies into handsome
older black cowboys?)
I honestly don’t believe country music is that bad. For starters I love all music besides rap. The reason i hate rap is because it talks about how many feminine dogs you have and what tricks they could do. I also don’t care about how fly you are or why you ate a fucking cat last night. The lyrics won’t even make sense, all they do is rhyme. Here’s an example.
Yo i had some 25 dolla
Give me a holla
Naw bra get ya own
Go and get yo shirt sewn
Some times they don’t even rhyme. Other than rap all other music gives off a certain emotion.
Rock= somewhat angry, hope, and rebelism.
Metal= somewhat same as rock but also shows sadness
Country= happy, sad, and humerous
Pop= something to look forward to
Jazz= calmness
Blues= real life situations

I agree man It is awful Almost every station were I live is country and I can’t understand why it is so popular either. All of it sounds the same and they all look the same. I miss the oldies stations. We used to have a couple of stations that played 50′s and 60′s music and now its like they disappeared. The worst thing that ever happened to this country is when clear channel took over the FM and AM dial. Now you are almost forced to buy satellite radio. If you have no satellite radio its either country or the same classic rock songs you have heard over and over again. Its a good thing I got Sirius or else I would go nuts in the car. I like the oldtime radio show channel it is great on a long trip. You can hear old Jack Benny shows Amos and Andy and more. Now thats radio to me.
And PS that chick is hot. But that seems to be the only thing making it in music today. Its not talent at all just looks and I think that is sad because the quality of music has gone way down.
It seems like any country song can make it as long as you add 911 in the lyrics.
for example and this song may make it sadly, and yes feel free to steal these lyrics if you want.
I am ropin a goat made love to my 2nd cousin sittin on my horse chewin my tobacco wearin my six gun oh yea 911 911 I shot my horse couse it got to old made love to my 2nd cousin again still chewin my tobacco wearin my six gun oh yea 911 911.
Thats about all it takes to be a country hit.
Country music sucks. this is also so true when your confined at work and some ass hole plays country and you can’t escape, or complain. I have quit jobs where this has occurred! This incessant catter walling is more than I can stand! I’d rather not have a radio than listen to country all day long! I don’t want to listen to rap all day long either! There used to be good country, but not for many decades!
Country music that comes from Nashville sucks, i agree. If you even can call it country music? It is so much pop and rock in it you can’t even hear difference between Britney Spears and Taylor Swift.
It is still many artists that still has roots in their music, what do you call that? Roots country?
Actually im really embarrassed to say the word ” country “, that im listen to country music. Cash and Merle has nothing to do with Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift and Keith Urban. Its like if you take whiskey and pour water in it more and more each time you drink. I mean if i want water i drink water, and if i want to drink whiskey i drink whiskey. Keep them apart!
First of all country is whiny pussie rap does not degrade wemon lil wayne sucks an its funny dat rap is top genre of music country is gay an rap
O an refering rappers 2 gang bangers is racist country u cant understand
