Second to

[BaneTheBrawler]

fiancee tried to get me to watch it




i lost interest pretty quickly. i like musicals but that one was just basically "look how poor they are. see? they're poor."

MOTHERFUCKER SO AM I I DONT NEED TO BE REMINDED OF IT

[Demosthenes]

Was a trip w art majors, imagine everything touristy art majors from rural VA would do in NYC and we did it, moma, the gugen, full monty, blueman group, statue of liberty, i left during intermission of Rent that shit is trash.

Man I fucking feel bad for you.

[Demosthenes]

Though moma is A+

[Demosthenes]

Still mad I never got those kraftwerk tickets.

[Day]

Man I fucking feel bad for you.

Its all good, honestly most of it was pretty amazing, there is literally no stop light in my home town, and that was my first time seeing a big city.

I do want to go back and see the "real" NYC w some locals sometime though. Mostly for the food lol.

[Ksandra]

Rent was my hs. F you people.

[Ksandra]

Actually, kinda sad in a way. My friend that passed was super into rent, but I never realized just how fucking badly he was until he passed. Like, I don't think he could ever move passed HS and since that was such a big thing with all of us, it was huge for him. He saw it several times. Was obsess with Idina Menzel.

I played my sims game recently, and had forgotten he made a character in the game. He made himself a teen that looked earily similar to Mark from the show.


We played him the music as they pulled the plug. ;;

Awards say you are bad and should feel bad.

[Demosthenes]

Awards say you are bad and should feel bad.

Whoa there, I don't hate rent but it is far from my kind of shit. Just remember that Suicide Squad got awards too.

[Zetanio]

wait really? for what?

[Demosthenes]

Don't recall. Doesn't matter.

[Zetanio]

true

[Mertron]

it won like the second award of the night for makeup or costumes or some shit

i know because i made a joke “suicide squad currently has more oscars than la la land” when it happened

[Mertron]

and yeah awards generally don’t mean shit

[Ksandra]

Whoa there, I don't hate rent but it is far from my kind of shit. Just remember that Suicide Squad got awards too.

You can not like something and still recognize that it isn’t bad. I’m not a rap person at all, but I respect a lot of rappers and their music.

And let’s not compare SS’s make-up awards to a Pulitzer.

[Ksandra]

Iirc there’s been only....10? musicals that have won a Pulitzer, (I remember hearing about it when Hamilton got it).


I think it can be argued that Rent is not timeless anymore, but for 1996 that shit was huge.
