Alignment memes are getting less and less connected to reality.

[–] Custoslibera@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Sounds like a topic for the next alignment meme.

[–] hai@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I’d agree with like the random aircraft ones, but do you disagree that listening to a musical on shuffle isn’t cursed?

[–] spittingimage@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

The idea of listening to a musical and not watching one honestly never occurred to me.

[–] Belgdore@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

I feel like it depends on the musical.

Radio is chaotic evil for sure

No choice, no knowledge of what might be next in the library, very small track list so loads of repeats and SO MANY ADS

[–] trailing9@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 year ago

But it's not chaotic but structured by editors. It's lawful evil.

[–] hai@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Ehh… yeah, I see your point, what we really need is a musicals radio station….

[–] Gorvin@lemm.ee 30 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Chaotic neutral here. One momment I'm listening to Sabaton, the next I'm listening to Chainsaw Man intro song.

I regret nothing.

[–] Caesium@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Am I really listening to music if I don't experience tonal whiplash with each song? Is it really living if I'm not listening to a j-pop song only to have post-metal be next in the queue??

Not only that but I also just get a real good grasp on the music I listen to in general. It is a very fun excerisze to be able to guess the song that's playing within the first few seconds.

[–] NukedRat@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Exactly what I do. I have over 500 songs on my Spotify paylist and just keep it on repeat. When I find a new song I like I add it on.

[–] hai@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

See, I’m typically the same way. Recently though I’ve been messing around with how I store my music though and have been into (shuffling or playing in order) albums recently.

99% of musicals completely obliterate my suspension of disbelief. Like why? Why did you have to force songs into every single conversation? It's weird and unnatural

[–] hai@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Bad musicals are awful. Good musicals are amazing.

[–] trailing9@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That disqualifies musicals from being lawful good unless further qualified.

[–] pancakes@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

Unless the song is super catchy.

Real evil is listening to /dev/random

People learn and sleep with white noise. It's chaotic neutral.

[–] dessalines@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

I love how musicals are in both lawful good and chaotic evil.

[–] BedbugCutlefish@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Where's 'turning the music off and driving in silence'?

[–] Capitao_Duarte@lemmy.eco.br 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] trailing9@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

The 4:1 upvote relation between music and silence, that's insightful.

[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

I would drive in silence if I could. Traffic is loud but there are key audio cues throughout (honking, tram bell, protected railroad crossings, motor rot/min for shifting gears etc.)

Beyond evil: shuffling a playlist of multiple musicals.

[–] AllonzeeLV@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I'd love You will be Found from Dear Evan Hansen to be randomly followed by Epiphany(we all deserve to die) from Sweeney Todd.

[–] yozul@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I guess I'm lawful chaotic, because I like album shuffle.

[–] webghost0101@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I was 100% expecting album shuffle as evil.

Listening to a playlist in order is super valid if its a proper build playlist.

[–] leaky_shower_thought@feddit.nl 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

reminds me of those Oklahoma folks. the real lawful evil.

[–] hai@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is what we should replace death row with.

[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

As in, put the officers who tortured the prisoners on death row, and free the convicts?

Or torture more people?!

Where is shuffling all your musicals...
