sounds like the hiring managers at some companies I know lets hire a bunch of consultants who barely speak english, have horrible person to person skills, piss without washing their hands and yell a lot in meetings because they know some java and come on the cheap

I think anyone posting things that don't align with indie-rock values will get the Yut label these days. Kind of reminds me of a book I read in the 2nd form (7th grade), where some pigs kick out a pig, and that pig becomes a sort of goat -- a scapegoat. So you see, it is completely possible for a pig to turn into a type of goat. Almost magical.

I too value saving 16kb of space in a database table vs. free speech. I mean, 8 profiles? Come on. But who's counting? I don't have the resources of say, a Google, with their cloud computing and thousands of servers. I doubt EAR does either. It is, after all, MySQL, and no one else's!

I saw the Musical Box do the black version of the Selling England By The Pound tour last week. It slayed.

If you're confused as to who Yut is/was, look up the Brian Eno or King Crimson threads.

Apparently, according to Steve, he's posted under many different aliases since last posting as Yut. I wasn't aware of that, at least for sure, although I did have my suspicions a couple of times.

Opinionated, likes Yes a lot. Has more respect for technical abilities than actual talent or good/interesting ideas.

Maybe he likes records where all the songs are listenable. King Crimson doesn't qualify -- even "good" ones like Larks' Tongues, Red, Starless.

Eno makes some nice atmospheres. I have some of his records. Maybe this Yut goat does too. But don't you think he may be a bit too evangelized, maybe more because he has a lucrative career as some producer type d-bag?

But yes, in the anals of indie rock (and the local hesher/stoner will agree) CRIMSON ROOOOOOOLS! Especially the first one. Has that "secret agent man" groovy riffage. Talk about interesting ideas! It's a fact, that one is the birth of interesting rock music.

The Rick Wakeman side of Tales From Topographic Oceans isn't really listenable...

What about Fripp's solo stuff, or even League of Crafty Guitarists?

You're YUT!

Steve, ban him now.

He might say something critical about AL GORE. Oh my. If word gets out about him selling federal land to Occidental so they can drill oil, or supporting ITW after writing a book about what a bad idea it is, people might think the Democrats are full of shit, and we might get ROMNEY! Cripes, that guy will dole out corporate welfare with much more fervor than any Democrat could possibly do.

I mean, after they stopped the war in Iraq, they deserve the White House, cuz we gots to go into Iran... I mean, these bellicose statements! We have to do something!

Wait, who are you? Snowball actually stayed in exile. You can't be Snowball and keep hanging around.

That's just poor representation of a literary character.

Oh... That "Redline" or Yut fellow might try to mention that Al Gore was the only Dem in the Senate to support Regan's invasion of Grenada.

He also supported the first gulf war.

But he wouldn't have led us into war after 9/11. He's an environmentalist hippie pacifist, at least that's what the bumper sticker on his 12 cylinder, 8 mpg limo says...

So, if you look at the newest Mario game's cover art and only read the letters with sparkles underneath them they spell out "ur mr. gay".

Fascinating.
