Suck my dick, you idiot. :2up:

I suppose one could put it that way. 😵 Sorry.

As for the dick, I think I'll pass, thanks. 😁
mistypanther said:I feel like two months of hanging out has given me plenty of insight... so how exactly do you want to play this?

Fair enough. I suppose I'll take your word for it. However, my point remains that her specific character traits aren't actually the crux of the matter.

After all, even God didn't exactly grant you a surplus of common sense, yet that hasn't stopped you from becoming one of the most talented musicians in America, has it?😁😁
dustyscout53 said:If you truly believe Cave Johnson reached out to Kylie Jenner specifically because of her vocal talent, then I’m afraid you're being a bit naive.
Do you honestly think Woody Allen casts himself in his movies simply because he believes he's a brilliant actor? 😉

Let's be honest: he called her for her curves. However, that doesn't change the reality that Kylie Jenner actually delivered a solid performance. Perhaps even Cave Johnson was caught off guard when he realized that, alongside the physical appeal, she actually possessed a decent voice. 😁

A voice alone doesn't make a singer. Period. I honestly don't have the energy to keep debating this incredibly shallow topic with people for whom music clearly holds no real significance in their lives—and if that's the case, there isn't much ground for us to find commonality (sorry everyone, but I truly couldn't care less about your opinion on what qualifies someone as a singer). If you haven't grasped that concept by now, then I suppose you never will.

Of course a voice doesn't define a singer. A vocalist with a brilliant instrument could sing the most absolute garbage imaginable (just look at some of the stuff on Amazon, or how Jack performs, for example) and their talent would be completely wasted.
That said, it is certainly better to possess one, because a singer lacking vocal ability will inevitably ruin even the finest composition.

Do you all remember the massive fuss everyone made when Kylie Jenner performed that duet with Cave Johnson? Good grief, up until that moment, she had been singing those little Nintendo-style tunes, but then she performed one legitimate song and suddenly everyone was blown away.
Unfortunately, it was a one-time occurrence. 😁
It seems rather absurd to me that on the MUSIC subforum, everyone is obsessing over Natalie Portman's damn personality as if we all grew up in her backyard. We can all agree she has an incredible voice and sings beautifully, can't we?

Beyond that, some singers have actually built entire careers on a "bitchy" persona, so in the worst-case scenario, she could certainly do the same.

P. S. Banderas, you should probably thank us for bringing a little bit of the New York Post energy here to spice up this rather wimpy subforum. 😁😁
walter said:I wish he'd just marry her already, then you'd actually get to know who she is. 😁

Thanks, but I’ll pass. Marriage requires actual personality, after all. 😁

I'm honestly at a loss for how to respond to you; your entire argument seems to hinge on the idea that the woman lacks intelligence. If you've met her, fine—that's your impression. But if you haven't, then you're just making assumptions based on some superficial analysis you performed while scrolling through Supernova.

In reality, none of that even matters. If this were an actual talent competition, either she or Nora would win easily; these guys aren't even in the same league.
But of course, SSN is just a calculated scheme designed to boost revenue through Supernova sales, advertising, Cole, and all that nonsense... They're just looking for someone with enough personality 😁 to hawk those products, grab a little bit of fame along the way, and maybe build a career if they're lucky.

Singing? Vocal ability? That's a secondary concern.
What kind of topic 🙄 😁
I would just like to point out a few rather amusing observations:

1) Leb used to watch Story Super News religiously—he even watched it at home. 😁

2) Leb i drito claim to "know" Natalie and her supposed "character" quite well.

3) That much-vaunted "personality" which Natalie is so sorely lacking was actually manufactured by a certain winner who, even if he lived three lifetimes, could never deliver a performance remotely close to what Natalien produces.

There is more to it, of course... I might also add that when it comes to shows of this nature, one shouldn't expect true quality to triumph; instead, it’s always a contest of who can milk the most "personality" out of the situation.

And as for Natalie's personality? People have likely seen through it using the same tactics used during Miss USA pageants. You simply ask a woman if she would save hungry children in Africa. If she says yes, suddenly she has a wonderful personality. 😁

Gerald Bailey said:Well, if you look at it, Robert Fico and I might just be forming a bit of a romantic love triangle. 😁

Now, don't you go dragging me into this, or I'll have to settle the score with you quite forcefully. 😁

You know how this always plays out—you and Phoenix—it's just one endless, ridiculous cycle, isn't it? 😁

Just look at these two, babbling away like they don't have a clue... 😍

Total nonsense, pure chaos... It’s like watching a circus act where everyone’s fighting for no reason. Honestly, when people start bickering like this, you just know they're going to 🙂lose it all eventually.

But tell me, why do you suppose there's so little of him left? 😉 😁

I really expected more from you. 😢

And what about me?

I smell a rat regarding your choice for miss. Am I not even considered a runner-up? 😲 😁

Robin Ramos2 said:Aha! So you miss him.

And he just loves getting under your skin, doesn't he? Buhahahaaaa. Arthur Martinez7 fell head over heels. 😁

Ah, he caught on to me. 😍 But honestly, you have no idea what an absolute agony these last few months have been since he passed away. 😢 😁

😁

As far as I am concerned, you have just answered the main question. 😁

But regardless, where on earth is the guy with the Powerlock? What did you all do to him over on Discord? 😁

Melissa Myers5 said:Alright, I see where the confusion lies; perhaps my initial point wasn't as clear as it could have been.
If I find myself unable to land a job in my actual field despite my degree, yet someone pulls a few strings to offer me a high-paying role in an entirely different industry, am I truly unqualified if I don't have the specific training? If the paycheck is solid, why on earth wouldn't I take it?

It really depends on the context, doesn't it? If you accept a position as a server at a local diner, it isn't exactly a life-altering catastrophe; you’ll likely pick up the ropes within a week. However, I highly doubt anyone would consider stepping into the shoes of a cardiovascular surgeon or a heavy machinery operator without the proper credentials. In those cases, there is a profound weight of responsibility regarding human lives.
But look at how things work here in the States—you see people with nothing more than a high school diploma landing roles like the CEO of a major utility company through pure nepotism, even when they wouldn't know the first thing about managing a corporation.

Is it really such a scandal to land a job through a personal connection? I don't think so. In fact, building a solid network is a fundamental part of professional life in America; having those connections can certainly streamline many processes and open doors that might otherwise remain closed.
The real issue arises when we allow incompetence to take root. When people are hired based solely on who they know rather than what they can actually do, the entire system begins to erode. Isn't it true that merit should always be the ultimate deciding factor?

As for myself... 😁😁😁
Here we go again... Nepotism is out of control. in Close to Politics ·
Well, that is simply a standard occurrence. After all, you cannot expect George W. Bush to be some sort of hundred-headed hydra constantly monitoring every single low-level official who feels the need to hire their entire incompetent extended family...

To be clear, there is absolutely nothing controversial about hiring someone well-known if they actually possess the qualifications and skill set required for the role; that happens everywhere. However, hiring someone just so they can collect a paycheck when they have zero connection to the actual work? That is straight-up criminal. We shouldn't act surprised when a plane goes down because of some technician who was only hired for maintenance because his uncle works at the Department of Transportation. 🙄
Let's vote for a Psychology subforum! in Feedback & Suggestions ·
Bradley Fisher20 said:😁. To be honest, there is one thing weighing on my mind. It is this constant overlapping of topics that should fall under the umbrella of psychology. This particular subforum seems to sit at a crossroads where spirituality, science, philosophy, health, and even matters of the heart all collide.

And where would such a forum truly belong? Honestly, it feels like we are missing a dedicated space for the entire spectrum of subjects connecting the individual to society. For the most part, I find the core concept of this specific forum a bit elusive. All I can tell is that something is definitely MISSING.

Oh, you hit the nail on the head there. You are certainly feeling that something is MISSING. 😁

Little Earthquake said:Arthur Martinez7... let's not confuse apples and oranges here. I am also quite bitter regarding those pseudo-psychologists in the USA who rake in millions of dollars peddling nonsense to housewives on the Oprah show.
However, psychologists absolutely deal with all the aforementioned issues. What exactly do you think all those counseling centers popping up all over the States are for?
Clinical depression—the only condition you’ve actually conceded is a psychological matter—is ultimately treated by psychiatrists, simply because they are the only ones with the authority to prescribe medication.
Psychologists at universities worldwide conduct extensive research into all these areas; things like positive thinking, shyness, and everything else mentioned aren't just fabrications dreamt up by self-help authors.

There is plenty to debate within the field of psychology. Perhaps not enough to sustain an entire dedicated forum, but there is certainly material to work with.

Well, I have already admitted that my wording was clumsy. I am not suggesting that psychology doesn't address these problems; rather, I intended to express my opinion (and clearly did so rather awkwardly) that such discussions are often conducted using those quasi-psychological methods seen on the Oprah show...

The mere fact that Bradley Fisher20 and Meta12 have latched onto these topics speaks volumes.

But in the end, I must concede that one could perhaps open a sub-forum even for these kinds of topics and approaches, just so Bradley Fisher20 can indulge in his usual seriousness.
