What the fuck is Heriot-Watt University? I do like how the good Prof. North calls his own research "significant." Sounds like one of those facebook quizzes.

Shoulda been a poll...

LOLOLOL
indie fans have low self esteem
classical fans are introverts
so basically there was centuries of introverts that came before us.

"One of the most surprising things is the similarities between fans of classical music and heavy metal. They're both creative and at ease but not outgoing."

maybe some of the heavy metal fans we're lying, possibly maybe

― CaptainLorax, Thursday, 11 September 2008 02:38 (eighteen years ago)

Perhaps when North described the results as "significant" he meant it as in the statistical sense, as in there was another variance to show distinct differences for each music genre fans personality. me being a stat major, and hopefully a statistician shortly, I have to call balogna on the mother fucker. I don't even want to see a blueprint of his survey and calculations, the results are obviously b.s. and non-inclusive.

No prog no ... ah never mind.

'gentle'?

― Patrick Leahy, (D)-VT (deej), Thursday, 11 September 2008 06:51 (eighteen years ago)

I've seen threads about this on approximately 5000 different messageboards while ILX has been down and every single one has featured people being as dumb as a plate of gravel and completely failing to understand how surveys work

"The general public has held a stereotype of heavy metal fans being suicidally depressed and of being a danger to themselves and society in general. But they are quite delicate things."

Eh?

― Tom D., Thursday, 11 September 2008 09:20 (eighteen years ago)

Um, suicidally depressed people who are a danger to themselves are indeed quite delicate things.

Who on Earth thinks of HM fans that way anyway? If there is a HM stereotype it probably involves hard drinking and motorbikes, non?

― the pinefox, Thursday, 11 September 2008 09:20 (eighteen years ago)

Agree, Tom D: it's bonkers

In the 70s maybe. Nowadays it's all LARPers and university computer programming societies and women who spend £300 on corsets but 0 on facial hair bleach.

Soul fans win. What would Geir think?

― Tom D., Thursday, 11 September 2008 09:25 (eighteen years ago)

I have nothing against soul. It is all the stuff that happened after soul that I have disliked. Soul is melodic and fine.

― Geir Hongro, Thursday, 11 September 2008 09:28 (eighteen years ago)

Generally it seems the self esteem is dangerously high among those who like bad music though. Like chartpop. :)

― Geir Hongro, Thursday, 11 September 2008 09:28 (eighteen years ago)

This survey fails to tell you which one to listen to if you want to get laid the most.

Fuck the Large Hadron Collider. Science has failed us again.

― NAZI MODS FUCK OFF (Matt DC), Thursday, 11 September 2008 09:29 (eighteen years ago)

I'm sure they mean "that stuff" as well (xxp)

― Tom D., Thursday, 11 September 2008 09:29 (eighteen years ago)

facial hair bleach?

Poll?

I think it's safe to say that blues fans get laid the least, though.
