oh I didn't take it as any kind of personal thing you said directly to ME..
I'm just stating that that's not the reason or even a "bonus" as you say it
to why I like IDM.

how old are you? If you don't mind me asking...

I don't believe they are the same.. I believe yes some adults are quite
childish, but we aren't the same as children.

although in the wise words of green velvet's preacherman:

"in most games of house there is no marriage ceromony, we go right into
bein' mommy and daddy.. and this same mentality has followed us into our
adulthood.. we live with for whom we have no intention of marryin', we sleep
with for whom we have no intention, of ever marryin'.. we have kids with
those for whom we never had any intention of marryin' ... YOU'RE PLAYIN'
HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!" :DDDD

I sometimes call them songs.. but technically yes, they are not songs.
usually I call everything tracks "b/c" ;) I think it's also appropriate, and
it avoids that confrontation of what a piece of music must have to be a
song, etc.

>not a reason, a bonus.

it's not a bonus either. I mean, it would be pretty cool if there were a lot
more ppl here who liked this kindof stuff. I mean, you also always have to
find people with similar interests.. to bond with, make friends with, etc..

as for girlfriends, It's like totally futile to try and find a girl who
likes this kind of music, although.. when I look for a girl, I don't look
for an IDM logo on her chest..

yeah hehe, in the early days :)

yeah I see what you mean.. but I still say that not one ounce of my being
likes being alone in here in liking IDM.. well I know some people here who
are into it, but the number is less than 10 :) i'm talking IDM.. of course
there's a shitload of ppl here who like trance, house, jungle, blabla.. in
the rave scene basically everyone does =)
