this came to me in a dream

Floyd's emo ass and a techno troll could make scene kids...! Do you see my vision??? . . . Ravin is Happy Hardcore and Eddy M is Synth-Pop, that's how troll genetics work, right?

anyway...

i don't think floyd leads a proud life

who are these DIVAS 💜

okay so steph is definitely a music purist?

we can all agree on that right? like she's a 'said she was born in the wrong generation in middle school' fleetwood mac, david bowie, the mamas & the papas, niche modern indie artists and also chappell roan kind of music listener. obviously. but.... i dont think we've really considered pete's music taste?

pete, who is a science, left-brained kind of kid, so he probably does not actively go out to look for music and is instead just provided music by the people around him?

pete whose older brother is theodore spankoffski and so his earliest and most fond and nostalgic music influences from his childhood would have come directly from ted's cd collection???

basically what im saying is peter spankoffski has the most trashy, early 00's ke$ha, black eyed peas my humps era, all american rejects ass music taste in the world

that boy had bowling for soup's 1985 memorized at age four, his guilty pleasure music is hollywood undead's everywhere i go, ted did his first decent person move in years when pete came out as trans as a kid and stopped listening to grow a pear by ke$ha and pete forcibly made him play it because it's a bop

and then his only friends are a weeb and a theatre kid.

steph gives him the aux cord on a date to be nice, as a sign of trust, and is blasted in the face with the most uncurated mess of j-pop, sondheim, weezer, and like... owl city's fireflies and that's just a fact

OP is a mysterious one. I can't speak to that. Hair color or style to match the rooms we're in? Yeah. Chester died of canine appendicitis. Everyone pays between 20 and 30% of their income on groceries and cleaning supplies etc. for the house. T Q and D are vegan. None of us eat meat or smoke weed at home. M and W2 can't stand the smell of weed. And no, you don't have to be a certain size to join, it just makes clothes easier. Our families aren't worried, why do you ask?

Okay that covers most of what I asked. Pasting the mod of @am-i-the-asshole-official ‘s questions below:

and my additional questions, why does OP hate C so much if they are contributing in line with those expectations? and how effective is 20-30% of income when 80% of the household has no income at all? and isn’t all that hair dye/cutting and styling materials hard on the environment and rather wasteful for an anti capitalist household?

and YEAH what do the parents who own the house think of all this??

HELLO!?

I COULD'VE GOTTEN MORE MUSICAL CONTENT FROM THIS MAN THIS WHOLE TIME!?

WHO THE FUCK WAS GOING TO TELL ME ABOUT "BURN BUTCHER BURN"!?

SERIOUSLY!?

WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME!?

I am new to BO fandom, but I've been in many fandoms before so here's the question: what fanfiction is your all time favorite, the one that makes you think it's better of a book?

[bonelady]

god there's so much here... 'chkchkchk' is so fucking funny. i would also unfortunately be the type of guy to call into a station to let someone know how that's pronounced. i remember people listening to PWR BTTM and JPNSGRLS while i was in college. something in the era about taking out all the vowels and all capsing the name I guess. i remember when the latter changed their name after a decade because people thought that it was kinda gross and they were like 'no no no we just like Mass of the Fermenting Dregs'. god are there some names on that list though. how do you go about working at a radio station anyways? probably not much of a thing these days.

how on earth are you walking around calling yourself 'goo goo dolls'. don't even have the decency to put a 'the' in front. i saw that one post going around and went 'haha funny joke name' but then i realized it sounded familiar. this is some 'wet leg' bullshit. i would name my band something badass like 'patina my altoid tins' or 'twelve gay frenchmen'. something with guts, y'know?

ngl People really do exaggerate Creek as a jerk at the start of the film as well it has to be said given all he does is hit back against a guy who is openly antagonistic towards him and his friends.

Like we saw that Branch was openly hostile to everyone even when he's trying to warn them about the noise they are making attracting Bergens

He's still openly rude and hostile about it to which all of the snack pack do hit back not just Creek but he's the only one people seem to focus on for some reason?

I'm not saying Creek or the rest of the snack pack's behaviour was 100 percent the right way to deal with the Branch situation but it is perfectly understandable

Given he's just an acquaintance who goes out of his way to act hostile towards them and mock them for their way of life.

To which Creek rightly hits back at him for, given his many many warnings have turned out to be false which makes Branch's arrogance in insulting them all very misplaced tbh.

And as the meme above suggests ( all hail memes 🙏🙏🙏🙏) this is a bit of a blatant double standard certain people in the fandom have when it comes to jerkish behaviour towards Branch

Creek is an utter jerk and Branch's arch enemy for making snide remarks towards him after he was openly hostile towards him and his friends on no doubt multiple occasions over the years

But JD and Bruce are caring brothers who just made a whoopsie despite abandoning him showing no remorse for doing so and later being emotionally abusive to him for no real valid reason and people say Branch has to love them.

This line of thinking from people cough Tezzbot cough honesty kinda worries me because it really does seem like people only view Creek's behaviour towards him as worse

Because he isn't Branch's family and therefore it wasn't his bloodright to use him as an emotional punchbag and be forgiven time and time again like it is for Bruce and JD

Even tho Creek actually had a much more valid understandable reason for behaving this way towards Branch ( as he did for all his other actions in the film unlike Bro zone ) than any of Branch's Brothers did.

to be clear People liking Bro zone wouldn't bother me so much if they didn't try and whitewash their relationship so much and blatantly be hypocritical

With their reasons for disliking characters like Creek while going out of their way to defend Bruce JD Clay and Floyd from any fair criticism when their Behaviours really aren't at all defensible tbh.

Been thinking about Life on Mars. Not in any deep or meaningful way but like. Imagine being sent back to 1973. They didn’t even have Madness. They didn’t have Madness back then. Can you imagine being English without Madness.

[amygdalae]

Idk why (imposter syndrome I guess) but giving music recs kind of terrifies me. Like it's so fun to share and talk abt music but I'm also like oh no what if someone kills me with knives and hammers and stones and poison and acid and chemicals

Translation for Kuumaa interview for mtv3 on 20.4.2024

Original interview can be currently found here

Interviewer: Kuumaa-band's Johannes, Jonttu and Aarni are still here present. Soon we'll take audience questions, but before that, Aarni, I've understood that you have largely designed this visual side of the band Kuumaa.

Aarni: Yes

Interviewer: So this overalls that is now is this by your design?

Aarni: It is designed by me

Interviewer: Okay, where does inspiration start and why this look?

Aarni: Well, with the overalls, we wanted to avoid last year 120 outfit crisis, so the overalls were an answer to that.

Interviewer: So to a show when you just pull on the same overalls and it's easy to wash and change.

Aarni: Always the same overalls. Yes.

Interviewer: How many shows do you perform in the same overalls?

Aarni: It is two to three before it needs to be washed.

Interviewer: Okay. After that it walks to you.

*collective chuckling*

Interviewer: Understood. And a tough tour summer now too. I looked at your tour calendar- What was there? Parctically, on June 7th starts your summer tour and all the way to the end of August. You don't have any free weekends, there are of course weekdays there. 35 shows or something like that I must have counted. But you're experts at this. Last summer you did this same set.

Johannes: Well last summer we kind of told our booking agent that now go all out as much as you can, and we'll try if we can do it. And we can. So happily we're doing a new summer now.

Interviewer: We just went over that those cord conversations have been had, so what were you, Jonttu, planning on pulling next, somewhere around Mikkeli?

Jonttu: Maybe I'll have to pull some conversation cards or something along.

Interviewer: Conversation cards?

Jonttu: Yeah.

Interviewer: True. Hey, we've gotten a lot of audience questions. Finally we'll get some good questions to this interview. These have come in through our social media and I'll ask from you. Let's take the first one. Mikko has asked a question. This is probably one you've never answered before. From where did you get the name Kuumaa?

Johannes: The name Kuumaa comes from the midst of hundreds of name options and I fancied simply the tight form and this double meaning, the temperature and then these planets.

Interviewer: This double meaning has only gotten revealed to quite many here only a little later. What do you think of that?

Johannes: To us it's funny because it has been for longer quite obvious, that there- there all the way in the logo there is this kind of reading direction.

Interviewer: Yeah. And if I'm completely honest, then I've missed it. Yeah yeah. It took me really long to realize too the wordplay. But yeah. So that is the history, that there were a lot of options but that was the one that took. Do you want to say anything that was there in the... top 3? Almost ended up...

Johannes: Kärmes was one.

Jonttu: Yeah

Johannes: Maybe not so good.

Interviewer: Kärmes?

Johannes: Yes.

Jonttu: Yes. But we were really excited about it.

Johannes: Yeah. And now apparently there was on Spotify some artist called Kärmes, so-

Jonttu: We wish them...

Aarni: Good luck to Kärmes.

*collective laughter*

Interviewer: Well then, Ansku is asking, first of all with the reagrds that 'You're the best', that has there been any fights? So, Jonttu, has there been any fights?

Jonttu: Well- Just- What we talked about our conversation culture, so we try to open everything so, like, at an early enough stage—is early a word? Yes— that no conversation developes into a fight, or that no held back things rupture in a way that necessitates a fight. So maybe our latest fight was when I in Brussels ordered myself a hamburger and it surprised you in some way that you attacked.

*Johannes bursts into laughter*

Jonttu: That dude is out here eating some hamburger. That was our latest fight.

Interviewer: This story- This story we need. So what had happened?

Johannes: I don't even remember that, because, I assume, it wasn't a long-tempered case. But, like we just- so, we were up north for over two weeks on tour, and I was very proud of it that there were a couple times there was a situation where it almost boils over and we somehow, very maturely deconstructed it right away. Like 'Hey, I got a little bit upset because you looked at me like this *mimics facial expression* at the same time as I was looking at you like this *mimics a very different expression*'. Like those are like tiny nuances that we're deconstructing like as they come.

Interviewer: And Jonttu is careful with those hamburgers in the future.

Jonttu: Yes, exactly. What then is the right time to eat a hamburger? I don't know yet, but it surely- but it surely will get revealed here sometime.

Johannes: Maybe you didn't ask for premission for it or something.

Jonttu: Yeah. *Looks up an away from johannes* I'm so sorry.

Interviewer: Well then. Here comes the next question. Anita I think is this nametag. Do you want to sometime make collaboration songs with some other artist?

Johannes: Does Anita mean like feature?

Interviewer: I think yes, that could your song have in it, like, Gettomasa or, what- whoever.

Jonttu: Or Kärmes

Johannes: Or Kärmes!

Interviewer: Or Kärmes!

Johannes: Well- Like, that idea has, like, nothing wrong with it. Quite the opposite, it's like that collaborating is quite an inspiring thought. But we're asked a lot like 'When will you do a song with this and this and this and this?' And we've always answered that, well when from a sincere basis a song is made, that serves the, like, thing of each artist. That like the idea that we make a song and the grab artist X, like, for 8 bars for it, just so we could have a feature song, that hasn't felt inspiring. And on the flip side visiting on others' songs if the idea there is just to get two artists under the same title.

Interviewer: Yeah. Well then next weekend you have the ice hall show.

*Johannes blows a deep breath*

Interviewer: Sari here asks if you can reveal something about it already. Of course you've already done big shows and in the fall you have arena shows ahead and everything, but like the ice hall is the ice hall.

Johannes: Well, I can reveal that the preparations for no Kuumaa show has been anticipated* this much.

*Anticipated could be read as anxious, nervous or exciting depending on connotation. Here it is most likely a mix of the three, like 'made me as nervous/excited.'

Johannes: Our entire new album is getting perfomed there, like- which means that a horrible amount of new material in it's debut performance at once. It's- It has a first and a second act, that we can reveal. And an outfit change is coming up. What more? Let's reveal something.

Jonttu: Well, kind of, we're performing an unreleased song as well.

Johannes: That's true, yeah.

Interviewer: Kind of unreleased?

Jonttu: Kind of.

Interviewer: Alright. Okay one more question, Aino-Maria 5yo sent us on our facebook page that are there any all-ages shows coming up?

Johannes: Yes. Actually during the fall we're doing only 7 shows. They're like arenas. They're all all-ages. So Aino-Maria, you're welcome to come to all of them

Interviewer: They're also asking here if it'd be possible to get Johannes' autograph, so could we after the show arrange this and send it to Aino-Maria?

Johannes: Absolutely! Of course.

Interviewer: I think we might manage to get the rest of the guys' autographs as well. Big thank you that you could make it here! Do you have Karonkka up aheade?

Jonttu: Apparently.

Interviewer: But you don't know what's going on?

Johannes: No.

Interviewer: Well, neither do I. But it was nice to have you here. All good things to you, good luck to the ice hall.

*Collective thank you's*
