@literaryeric Vanilla Fudge was better than Black Sabbath, the Turtles were (much) better than the Beatles, The Rolling Stones at their early 1970s peak were worse than Billy Joel’s Uptown Girl, and Bruce Springsteen has been upstaged by The Turtles time and time again

You don’t regularly converse with a random sample of people in the US.
@exiled_kap@_sjax_@ok_hardo The first sentence of…Wikipedia 🤦🏾♂️. House is a dance music, and often (but not necessarily) electronic, but it is not EDM.

@Hitchslap1 Just because you can read the room doesn’t mean you can schmooze.
IQ doesn’t correlate with Trait Extroversion, or sociability. It does with Trait Openness, but there are just as many wallflowers as there are social butterflies among those with high IQ.
Dumbass!

@annakhachiyan Of course there is a “self,” unless you’re unconscious or a crustacean. If you feel bad and you don’t know why, then you’re lacking a sense of self.
