Explain to me what a "ram stein" is and why you would describe a person as looking like one.

And who or WHAT is a "goth"?

[ Brought to you by: somebody calling Kylo a "Rammstein-looking goth motherfucker." HE SUSPECTS IT'S AN INSULT. ]

Comments

[killthepast]

[ HUH. He doesn't know what 'German metal' would sound like, but in the full context of this comment, he can guess.

...

And he does look like he wants to murder people basically all the time. ]

I see. Then it's not an... entirely inaccurate observation.

[ SO APPARENTLY HE IS A RAMMSTEIN-LOOKING GOTH MOTHERFUCKER. ]

What kind of music is your thing? [ It takes considerable willpower to just type "your thing" without tossing quotes around it. HE'S HIP. HE'S WITH IT. ]

[muskeg]

[ well then, with the look of murder, one can see where the Rammstein comment might come from. Sage will try to find some for you later, you can make it your ringtone. you know, to be 'with it' and all.]

You have resting bitch face, don't you.

I prefer alternative music myself, though I don't mind metal. Just-- usually in a language that I understand.

[ so... English.

there is a pause before:] You have no fucking idea what that means, do you.

[killthepast]

[ 'Resting bitch face'?

Pauuuuuse... ]

Yeah, I probably do. Nobody's ever put it in those exact words before.

[ At least he has some self awareness. ]

No. Alternative to what?

[muskeg]

Really? It's kinda part insult part compliment when you think about it, but I get told I have resting witch face all the time.

[ see what he did there, DO YOU.

....dude, what the fuck. how do you not-- wait, alien moon thing. right. ]

... okay better, what kind of music do you listen to. I don't know if we are in the same universe here so, saying alternative isn't gonna make much sense.

[killthepast]

[ OH HE SEES WHAT YOU DID. ]

Witch face. So you have abilities? Power?

I don't really listen to music anymore.

[ And he hasn't in a long time, thanks to the miserably ascetic life he was living under Snoke. ]

Sometimes my father would play old recordings of flaunt and core drive bands.

[muskeg]

[ good, he wouldn't want his rare and terrible puns to go to waste on some poor idiot that doesn't get it. ]

Everyone has power, most people just don't know how to use it.

[ not a yes, not a no. you phrased that in a way that makes him a little ... ehhh. ]

Yeah see, none of that makes sense to me, flaunt is not music where I'm from. You should try more metal if you like the Rammstein. Alternative sometimes bleeds into it, it's basically just the antithesis of pop music.

[ because you totally know what pop music is...]

[killthepast]

I see.

[ The Force is similar-ish, in that it connects all things, and all people, but only few are sensitive to it. BUT WHATEVER, he's not going to elaborate on that just yet, because they're talking about something else now: ]

Pop music. That must be like sparkle bop.

[ Which he guesses from context; the little he knows about metal now, and thus what he imagines its antithesis would be.

Seriously, the musical genres in his galaxy are so dumb. ]

I'd be interested in listening to some of the music from your world. If you have recommendations.

[muskeg]

[ music is more interesting than the nuances of power and magic anyway. sometimes at least. ]

Sparkle bop? That-- actually sounds like a better description of pop than pop is. I'm so using that from now on, thanks.

[ ... you poor, poor soul. come let Sage teach you about music, granted not everything he listens to is considered 'good'. but whatever.]

Well if you like Rammstein, go for more metal. You might also enjoy rock and roll, there is also a genre called death metal. It can be... a bit much. Depends on how much you enjoy singing versus screaming I think.

[killthepast]

Rock and metal. Is there a reason they're named after inorganic materials? [ ASKING THE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS HERE. ]

No, I think I've heard enough screaming. [ Totally a normal thing that normal people say! ] What's rock and roll?

[muskeg]

Probably something in the history of it all but, I have no idea. They are hard materials?

[ that... doesn't actually phase him. not as much as it should. whoops?] Okay you know what, fuck that. We are going to educate you on the good shit, none of the sparkle bop. Rock and roll is fantastic, so.
