Jazz is my least favorite genre, and I literally have never heard I song I actually liked from it, so my second least favorite genre is rap, which does have a few songs/artists I do enjoy, my favorite being

Second year in college, the stars aligned and my small group of friends either dumped or were dumped by our girlfriends within 3 weeks of each other, and this song helped lighten the mood about the whole situation. Still has a special place in my heart.

Hello! I'm a medical student from the US, but I'm going to school in Europe. I enjoy playing the guitar, discussing politics, drinking cheap beer, smoking cheaper cigarettes, and occasionally playing computer games (currently Factorio and Cities: Skylines.)

This website caught my attention with the recent upheaval at reddit. I'm not really looking to immigrate, but just to explore new communities and ways of communicating. Reddit has kind of gotten a bit stale for me, and this seems like a very unique way to organize discussions and content sharing. I'm looking forward to seeing what this community has to offer and hopefully becoming a productive member of it!

Rand is an interesting case... The cynic in me thinks he is riding into the libertarian camp waving his father's name as a truce banner but not really meaning it, and the optimist in my thinks he is "playing the game" so to speak, something his old man never really got right. The realist in me thinks Jeb Bush is going to get the nomination and nobody with Paul as their last name will ever get through a primary anyways.

Is Rand perfect? No, of course not. Is Rand a politician? Yes. Does Rand stink as much as the rest of the pack? Mmmm... I would say no. I promised myself I would never hold my nose when I vote, and I think I'll be able to do that with Rand.
