The Echo Chamber. That would be a cool album title.

...and you might do well to consider that, for some of the more critical people, it's more the opposite. Instead of being a die hard "this band changed my life" fan, Pearl Jam might be third (or eleventh) on the list of their favorite acts, and they just happened to end up on this forum and enjoy it here.

Being a casual fan can do a lot to foster disapproval where others might search for justification, as well.

Being on the low end of the quality vs. post count spectrum myself, let me add a lot of it can be just looking for people with similar opinions or occasionally seeking to justify already formed opinions through popular consensus.

At the end of the day you need thick skin to be here. Simple as that. Very few times have I seen an actual "fight" from one person jabbing back from a negative or sarcastic comment. This place thrives on back and forth and it is usually pretty fun because of it.

If you say you are not a dick, but a generally steady flow of people come through acknowledging that you are, in fact, a dick....

Well, then maybe you might just be one. you know?

Maybe RM needs to look in the mirror long and hard. Group therapy put on by B? Group BJ's from Chud?

Strat, at least 17 things in this little post are or could be seen as allusions to penises. You might need to talk to a therapist about that.

Some sort of analyst/therapist hybrid.

Everyone here is so negative about everything. Except for the really positive response in the Mind Your Manners thread & poll. And the Moonlander thread. And the Constitution Hall thread. And the excitement the people who did get tickets for the upcoming tour have for seeing the band this fall. And the fun everyone who went to the London & Chicago shows professes to have had. But if you take away all of that stuff, everyone is so fucking negative. What is wrong with all of you people?

Now I realise that by starting the General Pearl Jam Praising thread I was sullying the board's reputation :thumbsdown: :shake:
