If you really wanted to hurt his feelings, you could tell him that he hasn't developed his style much since CtC. Gaudy pastiche once, perhaps, Bernard dahling, but why aren't you trying something else nowadays?Heston wrote:That's what I thought about Cut the Crap.Silent Majority wrote:I think that's quite sweet of the aging Bernard Rhodes to spend his time making something like that.

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Tragically, Bernie's latest aural opus ended in disaster when his Sound Blaster 16 driver crashed Windows 3.1's Sound Recorder. . .

True fact: I've seen people use multiple exclamation marks to emphasize urgency, outrage, or excitement, but I've never seen three sets of quotation marks to indicate … something.Rat Patrol wrote:Tragically, Bernie's latest aural opus ended in disaster when his Sound Blaster 16 driver crashed Windows 3.1's Sound Recorder. . .

Re: WAR AGAINST CHRISTMAS!
I wonder how much his friends will appreciate getting a "WARNING" as their Christmas present. :(
In addition to the triple quotes, I love how the repeated warning sentence in BOLD RED spills off screen. Almost like his voice trails off while he goes into the next room to get a glass of water, then returns in the middle of the same rant. And the "EVER" font just drips with delicious sarcasm.
Senile old men and MS Paint are the gift that keeps on giving this Holiday season.

I'm starting to think that Cut the Crap became the greatest album ever made in spite of Bernie's vision …
