Me: Okay um, so I guess you listen to American bands?
Person: Yes
Me: And do you understand what they're saying when they're singing?
Person: No sometimes I have to go on the internet so I can sing along with them.
Me: Exactly my point.

The exact same thing happened to me. One of my socalled 'goth' friends (he doesn't look or seem goth at all, yet claim to be so.) keep on bashing me about jrock. He's always over me saying ''How can you love a band and not know what they sing about'' and I KEEP explaining it as ''I do understand some of it. Lyrics are translated online. Yet I do not only listen to the lyrics. I feel the flow of the song. The atmosphere that the lyrics are sung in, are at least as important as the lyrics themselves.'' The retarded moron never gets it. He obviously WANTS to fight me.
