@Shaw089 @onlineinsane For me it's 8 + 10 - 1, but the point is the question is badly worded. My own question is, "Why is Dad doing the kid's homework?" If he's going to write any note at all it should be, "Sorry my kid didn't focus in math class this week."

Do 78+25 in your head I guarantee you dropped the 3, did 75+25 to make 100, and then added the 3 That's all common core is, teaching kids mental math shortcuts, they just represent it poorly sometimes visually Boomers really need to stop clutching their pearls and pretending that putting 78 on top of 25, and then adding 5+8 to make 13, carrying the one, and then adding 2+7 to make 9, and then adding the 1 is somehow superior, it isn't. It's slow and it's gay and you're old.

I would never intentionally bore the audience like this. And this is from the 90’s. Slash still plays simple sloppy bluesy solos to this day. Zero improvement in the past 26 years. Go watch any BB King solo if you want to see excellence. This ain’t it.

@DylanoA4 To me, music is life. However, the overkill of today has me craving silence in my home, leaving me rarely wanting to listen to my extensive musical library anymore.

The constant pumping of music into every public space, every idle second of sport, every supermarket and café, speaks to an underlying sickness, a kind of cultural mental illness. As a society we are allergic to silence, terrified of spending even one second with our own thoughts

Kind of crazy that if someone says "I've got two tickets to Iron Maiden," Iron Maiden is not the first band you think of

@AusScreenwriter @benonwine That makes zero difference to our responses. It's not the cameraman's business what other people do unless they're breaking a law or endangering others. I respect the diners for not forcibly taking his phone and calling the police.

@benonwine So for the morons in the comments who don't understand, I stated it was the context of the person filming it thinking these people are Muslim's vs the person tweeting it making out he's just approaching people he knows aren't Muslims.

A man is eating in public and gets confronted because it’s Ramadan he calmly explains he isn’t Muslim The response? “It’s very big trouble” Sorry but in a free country you don’t get to enforce your religious rules on random strangers in the street The arrogance is unbelievable

@jrmamana Either you're quite thick, or farming engagement. Either way, smart people can see you're not someone worth following.

@Photomusicrock if you listened to AVH itcwll be a different lead singer if he agrees it. everyone else is old news. Wolf doesn’t have the chops although it would be cool to see him run the table with it

Alex Van Halen needs to 'find a singer' for the unfinished Van Halen album. Should Wolfgang take the mic?

@20th_Centurygal Rename it to "Rock & Pop Hall of Fame" and the problem is solved. By the way, at least the well-overdue Iron Maiden gives us something to be pleased about.

What exactly is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame honoring anymore? Most of the nominees don’t even fall under rock and roll, you have to ask what the standard is. Rock built this Hall. The guitars. The sweat. The rebellion. The live shows that changed lives... Boston belongs on this list too...It's a damn shame.

@MetalAnecdotes @EddieTrunk Not true. Dynasty is Australia's favourite KISS album. Charisma is my favourite track off that album, and is well loved by many.

@EddieTrunk In Mexico only two Kiss songs were listened to and broadcast: I was made for loving you and Charisma, a song that nobody knows in the rest of the world. Outside those two, it wasn't until recently that the masses listened to Rock and Roll all night. That's it.

@punt_rd Jeez, there are so many! Let's pick Steamrock Fever for today. Mind you, I could replace it with nearly any other track from their early to mid-seventies period.

You have a six-hour drive to your destination, and your playlist can only include three recording artists. Which three are you including?

You could have given me 1000 guesses and I never would have picked that I am the reason Carlton’s season is already over
Nic Negrepontis@NicNegrepontis

@maluckyday99 Carlton’s season is in the toilet because of Dan Gorringe and zoomer influencers narrating 63 seconds of isolated training footage 😭
