Or the music when you see a documentary on something like Jack the Ripper. *shudders* Who wants to hear a horror-related piece of music? It would also get annoying if you wanted to listen to music on your iPod, but the background music just won't stop. That would drive me crazy.

The soundtracks of the old Silent Hill games are amazing in their weirdness and creepyness, it's "beautiful" in its own sense. Any song that actually inspires dread or uneasiness, without using common horror-flick clichés, is interesting in my book.

Hahaha, yeah, I can picture that happening.

Lol, I wish.
I'm serious.
Yeah it's this thing Guru built in for fun, I almost got that feature too... Dunno why it's 4 years and 3 months, just random guruness I guess. Reason it takes so long is it'd cost a lot of bandwith to give it to everyone from the start.
Yeah, I can't wait until mine kicks in. It's less than a year now, for me.

Look at Gametoast. Examine the name. Game
toast.
Remember the tofu and salmon jerky copyright on the bottom of the website?
Now ask again why such a random number
Haha

I thought people knew about this. Guess not. Ah well, just another reminder that I've been here significantly longer than pretty much everyone else.

Heh, or imagine when you're trying to sneak up on people.
Dun dun.... dun dun dundundundun....
That'd never work again...
I once saw this hidden camera show where a pianist played a song matching what unsuspecting shoppers were doing in a mall, much like pianists did in silent movies (he saw them through the survailance cams, and his music was played in the entire store, adapting the musics speed, volume and complexity to their actions)
Most people freaked out and went away, 'cept for a small child who started dancing

Would that be on youtube by any chance?
And dang, I've only got 3 years and 4 months down. Just 11 more until I have John Williams music marking my dramatic logging in to GT.
