The Residents affect many people that way.

Yeah, but I like them.  Not exactly a regular in my music rotation, but I enjoy putting on Third Reich 'n' Roll or Eskimo or one of the others I have every now and then.

I need to hear a whole Residents album.  I've heard some tracks and they're awesome.  Some of their videos are awesome.  Even Vision Express have stolen their ideas.  That's how cool they are.

Friction behaves pretty nicely. Especially compared to what is to come.

It is a lot. And the labs are also 20% of our grade. Each of the 3 tests are worth 13%, the final is 15% and 6% for quizzes. I also missed a lab (and there's only 17 homeworks and 13 labs), so I'm kind of f**ked. SUCCESS. 

And yeah, I know friction is nice and linear but I'm retarded and it never fits in when I'm trying to work it out from the slope and mass.

They're pretty awesome. They're the Shaw of music.

Have to love Community College grading. 40% of the grade is effort based, outside of class material.

Can't compare upper level classes to intro classes.

Not really, they sounded like just boring deathcore to me, though admittedly I haven't heard [id] and it's supposed to be their least deathcore yet so I'll withhold some judgment until I hear that album.

Wow, JJ with the deathcore ninja

The Common Man's Collapse is the only thing I've heard. It's very interesting Deathcore.

Yeah that's all the good deathcore I really know of.  Deathcore is awesome in moderate bursts (Periphery) and bands like The Red Chord are okay, but otherwise it's a very meh genre for me.

I see you are upset that he is exerting his style in your sphere of influence.
