To be fair, most of those were no-brainers. That one was mainly based off of the numerous job-related rant thread posts which led me to believe that it was only a matter of time.

No way. Foro only very rarely gets into some sort of argument online.

Surprising, I know! But I do recall witnessing some heated discussions on the proper way to rank things using the 1-10 scale..

Thing is, the job was a temporary thing from the first moment. I was never willing to invest much energy or ambition into it. Of course, I didn't tell my boss, and he thought I wanted to start a career with it. He kept appealing to my ambition during some of the tougher periods, and I really can't fault him for that. I think that's what frustrated me the most with all this.
Looking back, I don't actually have an emotional memory of the tough times. I remember what pissed me off, but I can't re-feel it. Looking back, it's the great personal things the job gave me opportunity for that dominate my memory, and I'm grateful for that.

I didn't see those. Where did they happen?

I think it was in the Judas Priest discography thread. Here is one example. There's also some other good stuff on page 40 of that thread.

When a hippo farts on someone's telly it could be a 5, when a dog barks at 8.12 AM it could be a 7? Who knows.

I'm not a fan of rating songs/albums to be honest. The first rating you give becomes a reference value for everything else.

Tell you something, this couldn't have been further from the first discussion we had on this topic.

 

[Black Wizard]

Do elaborate.

Actually I'm not entirely sure if the Diesel prediction fully came true

It didn’t really. The closest two to this are solo Bruce and solo Blaze, but I didn’t discover Bruce this year and I didn’t obsess over Blaze.

Looking at new carpets for the bedroom is tiring. Just sayin'.

Heaving like 50 crates of potatoes around is also very tiring and appears to have taken a painful toll on my back

Which letter did we reach for Maidenfans colds this year?

 

[Black Wizard]

I don't know. I wasn't keeping track. Sorry.

If you start The Chemical Wedding at exactly 23:06:04 on New Years' Eve, you'll enter 2019 just as the "Chemical Wedding" reprise comes in.

I know what I'm doing.

If you start Empire of the Clouds at exactly 23:06:04 on New Year's Eve, you'll enter 2019 just as the drums are about to come in.

23:06:04

Boy, you didn’t even do the damn math. Disappointment.

My bad. With those timings I reckon the solos would probably be almost on their way as the New Year begins.

The back-to-back Janickless solos, eh?
