His publishers and others have sometimes echoed the unconventional capitalization in his poetry by writing his name in lower case and without periods. Cummings himself used both the lowercase and capitalized versions, but according to his widow did not, as reported in the preface of one book,[1] have his name legally changed to e. e. cummings. He did, however, write to his French translator that he preferred the capitalized version ("may it not be tricksy").[2] Today, one Cummings scholar considers that for the poet to have signed his name all-lowercase may have been a gesture of humility, but for others to do so would be an act of condescension.[3]
That said any campaign saying you need to donate to somebody to prevent imminent dictatorship is the kind of shrill hysterics that gives non-mainstream political movements and candidates a bad name and nips their chances at success in the bud.
Quote from: Dagny TaggartMoney is what elects people these days. If you like a candidate, donate. Or at least buy a bumpersticker. Something.
Furthering the advancement of politicians = you suck.
Ron Paul's cool, but I NEVER donate to politicians. Or freeware.
Quote from: FlaskI hope you stop being an asshole to me. I haven't actually done anything to you, so if you could wrap up those emotions quickly, that would be great.
And yes, I am being an asshole too right now. It's only fair.
Yes, be an asshole to me so I'll stop being an asshole to you. Your logic amazes me.
Yeah, I've seen the not code'd version of that pic X___X
The list is missing Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band
Nick Drake
The decade had it all. Landmark punk, post-punk, alternative, shoegaze, electronic, new wave, and much more albums were released. I'm not talking about the hair metal here <_<
And just to humor myself, I'll list some o the stuff I'm talkin bout
for punk, Minutemen - Double Nickels on the Dime (undisputedly one of the best punk albums ever), Delta 5, Dead Kennedys
tons of post punk, Gang of Four, Public Image Ltd., The Fall, Echo & the Bunnymen, Mission of Burma, Joy Division
Shoegaze took form in the 80s, stuff like Cocteau Twins, My Bloody Valentine, Jesus & Mary Chain
Tons of great alternative, Dinosaur Jr., Pixies, Smiths, Sonic Youth, the Replacements, Smashing Pumpkins, Husker Du, I could go on forever!
New Wave was huge, with Talking Heads, Devo, and XTC being personal faves
And then you have, of course, the beginnings of Nick Cave, in his wilder years with The Birthday Party and first records with the Bad Seeds, all very very good.
Yeah, I love the 80s >_>
