Forever.
Outside that reads like a chemistry exam?
Butter comes in salted and unsalted forms. Just by unsalted.
It's interesting, but a lot of the decades that music is associated with often has less to do with the actual release time and more with the style that that decade is saddled with. Nirvana is considered one of the big grunge successes that defines 90s rock. And Spoolius Maximus likes to bring up GnR from the 90s, though I would personally say they were the last bastion of 80s arena rock during the big alternative push.
That list of ingredients is horrifying. Just buy unsalted butter.
it's right on the goddamn label
unsalted butter!
GnR was an 80s band, really. use your illusion, though uneven and bloated, was the last thing they produced that was even worth listening to.
Jane's Addiction was really more an 80s band too. I'd say that Janes Addiction & the pixies were sort of the apotheosis of 80s post-punk before it transitioned into the grunge movement.
not a big fun of counting crows! i remember liking them in like 1994 but they haven't really aged well.
natalie merchant, the indigo girls and other lilith fair circuit preachy lady singers were one of the things that made the 90s especially terrible!
as for rap, the 90s were the era that made gangsta rap the only real option in the rap game. it was, i think, a real disservice to the genre, and it wasn't until the 2000s that rap started to become playful or innovative again.
Ira Glass has the most un-imitatable speech impediment and it drives me crazy because the whole time I listen to him, I try to pin down the way he talks and I can't.
This Smart Balance stuff is a steal. Just look at the number of ingredients I'm getting for the low low price of $3.99.
Yeah I guess I should just buy regular ass unsalted butter.
This is definitely true. The band that created "Suck My Kiss" sounds vastly different from the band that mad "Scar Tissue".

I feel like this only works because he is already an attractive dude.

Well it's good that it has no trans-fat. But it's really just oil and processed flavoring and they are fucking with you on the serving size chart comparison with butter. Their serving size is 1 tablespoon, and that is a HELL of a lot of butter. Like, you'd only need to use a teaspoon for making eggs, or less.
So it's fatty oil with processed flavoring and nearly as much salt as butter, and you need to use more of it than butter to get the same effect. And they even say you shouldn't use it for cooking - probably because it falls apart and is gross when subjected to heat.
Please do. Sometimes in America we get very sad because no one else in the world seems to have crazies louder than ours, so it seems like we are the only ones who have them. But I just know that can't be true! Because every once in a while, I hear about, like, the French hating on muslims and I just want more of that in the news so I don't feel alone anymore!
WBUR 90.9
so much better
I have the hair for it, but I'd look incredibly silly in it.
I have to disagree with the accuracy of this statement quite heavily, and I'd say it was the other way around. 90s meant experimentation and coastal influences, 2000s meant ATL/HOU dominance and stagnation of the game
But I have to finish something up which sucks because I'm enjoying this discussion!
You can do some practice-outrage by reading this.
Will the EU let you?
also we should all be naked or maybe wear a belt
I feel like having cheekbones helps that look.

Dee, were you one of those kids who thought NOFX was the ultimate punk band? Man, I got into so many fights when I was in my punk stage because of that shit. I liked to pretend I was so much enter because I listened to real punk like DKs, Crass, MinorThreat and stuff like Citizen Fish (if I could include all incarnations of the groups, my top 3 bands are Sublime, Subhumans and The Clash.) and my aged friends would go on and on about Pennywise and NOFX and The Ataris.. I kinda distanced myself from punk because of all of that, and just went more horn heavy. Less than Jake, MadCaddies are excellent bands, I don't care what you guys say!!! 8-)

Inquiring minds want to know!
Like CCGs? Check my CCG's Thread in CF and help me playtest it!
This weekend, a top-level Italian soccer match was suspended for awhile because a sizable portion of the crowd was signing racist chants at a black player on the opposing team.
I agree with this - the Dirty South crowded out a lot of more interesting rap in the early 2000s. It wasn't until later that folks like Mos Def and Common started to get the recognition they deserve.
I can hear him from here.

I actually had never seen this before. I mean, it's been working fine in my eggs up to now, but maybe I've been getting lucky?
i only followed ska kind of casually - madness and desmond decker and like the english beat and the bosstones. i think i saw a skatellites show. but yeah the 90s were probably the high point for ska.
frankie liked ska a lot though.
the 90s were an okay time for pop-punk. like, green day and the offspring and nofx get shat on a lot because it's not REAL PUNK but it's fun music that doesn't take itself too seriously which is what punk is supposed to be.
Slint! They were barely a band though
