Alignment memes are getting less and less connected to reality.

[–] Custoslibera 15 points 11 months ago

Sounds like a topic for the next alignment meme.

I’d agree with like the random aircraft ones, but do you disagree that listening to a musical on shuffle isn’t cursed?

[–] spittingimage 10 points 11 months ago

The idea of listening to a musical and not watching one honestly never occurred to me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

I feel like it depends on the musical.

Radio is chaotic evil for sure

No choice, no knowledge of what might be next in the library, very small track list so loads of repeats and SO MANY ADS

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago

But it's not chaotic but structured by editors. It's lawful evil.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Ehh… yeah, I see your point, what we really need is a musicals radio station….

Chaotic neutral here. One momment I'm listening to Sabaton, the next I'm listening to Chainsaw Man intro song.

I regret nothing.

Am I really listening to music if I don't experience tonal whiplash with each song? Is it really living if I'm not listening to a j-pop song only to have post-metal be next in the queue??

Not only that but I also just get a real good grasp on the music I listen to in general. It is a very fun excerisze to be able to guess the song that's playing within the first few seconds.

[–] NukedRat 5 points 11 months ago

Exactly what I do. I have over 500 songs on my Spotify paylist and just keep it on repeat. When I find a new song I like I add it on.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

See, I’m typically the same way. Recently though I’ve been messing around with how I store my music though and have been into (shuffling or playing in order) albums recently.

99% of musicals completely obliterate my suspension of disbelief. Like why? Why did you have to force songs into every single conversation? It's weird and unnatural

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Bad musicals are awful. Good musicals are amazing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

That disqualifies musicals from being lawful good unless further qualified.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Unless the song is super catchy.

Real evil is listening to /dev/random

$ sudo su -

People learn and sleep with white noise. It's chaotic neutral.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

I love how musicals are in both lawful good and chaotic evil.

[–] BedbugCutlefish 6 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Where's 'turning the music off and driving in silence'?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 11 months ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

The 4:1 upvote relation between music and silence, that's insightful.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I would drive in silence if I could. Traffic is loud but there are key audio cues throughout (honking, tram bell, protected railroad crossings, motor rot/min for shifting gears etc.)

Beyond evil: shuffling a playlist of multiple musicals.

[–] AllonzeeLV 2 points 11 months ago

I'd love You will be Found from Dear Evan Hansen to be randomly followed by Epiphany(we all deserve to die) from Sweeney Todd.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

reminds me of those Oklahoma folks. the real lawful evil.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

This is what we should replace death row with.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

As in, put the officers who tortured the prisoners on death row, and free the convicts?

Or torture more people?!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Where is shuffling all your musicals...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Chaotic evil
