Drinking lots, horses, those hats, basically the whole hick/country experience XD;;;;; my area is civilised until the festival rolls around again, then the main streets are hax'd by utility trucks and... Australian country's probably worse than American country, but yeah. XD;;; It's dreadful! I tried to like it to fit in but... gah.

Keith Urban is from Australia though, and he's awesome and has pretty hair. <3 XD Other than him, if he even counts, I don't know what Australian country sounds like, so I dunno how accurate you are or not. And there's nothing wrong with cowboy hats. >O

And I wasn't saying you would get mad... more that everyone seems to get really defensive when the music they like is being insulted, yet they find it perfectly okay to bash country like it's nothing. It really annoys me. And it's not like I'm from a rural country-music loving area either where all you grow up listening to is country or anything... Connecticut is pretty much the farthest you can get from that. I've only really liked it for about a year and a half-ish now anyway. I'm open to listening to all genres though, and I mean that~

This post doesn't make much sense to me... so I'm not sure it'll make sense you anyone else either. Guess that's what happens when I try to argue at 3:30 in the morning... XD

Country music culture? By that you mean what exactly? Tailgating and drinking a lot? XD

Country music is associated a lot with alcoholic bums who tailgate; aka rednecks. Unfortunately.

The stereotype creates a big distaste for country music.

doesn't matter October 17th, 2006 11:39 PM

Well then you should really be asleep Ashley ... or at least rethink your studying habits :P

It's not just a stereotype; it's TRUE here.

Keith Urban is okay, can't say he's that good XD I probably hate it because it's shoved in my face.

I'm aware of the stereotypes... but that's just what they are: stereotypes. Sure there are a lot of songs about drinking and tailgating occurs at concerts and stuff, but all of the country music world isn't like that. Not at all. <<;

Well, I can't sleep until I get my paper done. And now that I've been distracted by PC, I probably won't get to sleep until at least 4:30. XD; It's a good thing I don't have any classes tomorrow until 12:30~

Kylie-chan October 17th, 2006 11:45 PM

What IS tailgating? xD;;

Meh, it's true here... it probably wasn't originally but people use it as an excuse to get drunk and drop their hygiene each January... can't wait until it gets here --;

And thus you hate it enough to admit you stay indoors while they have their festivities XD
Ashley: were you procrastinating or busy? XC

It's true in my hick town too. Unfortunately.

v. tail·gat·ed, tail·gat·ing, tail·gates
v. intr.

1. To follow another vehicle too closely.
2. To participate in a picnic that is served from the tailgate of a vehicle, as before a sports event.


Basically that, I guess. But it also would involve a lot of beer. Can't say I've ever participated in one before though, so meh. XD;

...and I was procrastinating. <<;;

Kylie-chan October 17th, 2006 11:52 PM

Ah... We have lots of tailgaters here, I can't see any link to country~ They *are* annoying, though.

The link is probably connected to that hicktown stereotype country music gets. I dunno, I don't live in that area of the US, so I can't really say much about it. But apparently a lot of tailgating happens before country concerts... but the only two concerts I've been to weren't by artists normally associated with the drinking songs and that kinda thing, so I have yet to experience this. XD;

Ha XD I don't think Japan has rednecks!

I meant America. Did I tell you I saw a Japanese magazine with a band on the front, and I thought they were all girls?

BUT THEY WERE GUYS!

doesn't matter October 18th, 2006 12:01 AM

I usually just get sick of procastinating though.

So I just do it at school the next day .... like I did this morning :P

Oh, and I'll advertise like Fuz too ... check out Pokemon Halloween Cosplay :P

Hah, don't procrastinate... it's bad. Really. <<; I mean, look at me... it's 4am the day my paper's due... and I still have another paper due today that I haven't started yet. And I would like to sleep at some point, but that's not looking like it's gonna happen. XD;;

And I didn't come close to beating Jorge on that, by the way. I may come across as lazy... but I'm really not that lazy at all~

Sure thing ^^ Hmmm.... I devoted a lot of time to mastering the art of procrastination... most of it involved learning how to steel myself and not let work get in the way of enjoying my other committments XDD Oh and not feeling guilty XDD
