Is this your own list or one you pulled from somewhere? 

Regardless, it's very rare that I find an album where I can listen to the entire thing but I love Green Day's American Idiot.  I can listen to that entire album for days.

I made that myself.  I have listened to all of that new music (and a lot more) and I own several of the albums I list (about half).  I haven't gotten the others yet.  But I haven't caught up on what I thought was the best of 2001 yet for that matter, so...

I just saw Green Day on television.  They wear a lot of makeup.  So did Bob Dylan, sometimes.

Of the CDs I got from this year, the only one I still listen to is Clutch - Robot Hive/Exodus. Everything else is back on the shelf collecting dust.

Sure, but "whitey" isn't supposed to act black.  It makes him look pathetic and ridiculous.

define acting black

I don't know that there is a definition, there is a black guy in my Company he told me one day he was about to start "acting black".  I still haven't figured out what he meant, but it was pretty doggone funny at the time.

I don't know that there is a definition

there isnt...except to ingornant people like rome and big ed

and for the record its just as despicable for blacks to hold it against their own for 'acting white'

no but i easily could have said something to the same effect in another post

It's despicable to act what you ain't.  In your case igy, you talk ig'nant--like you're some kind of street thug stillupfront's mom, which you obviously aren't.  You're just making as ass of yourself though, it's not a big deal. 

Also, hearing you preach about racism makes racism look good.

my top (less than) 10 of 2005

The Craig Machine - Stephen Lynch
Haughty Melodic - Mike Doughty
Guero - Beck
We're not happy until you're not happy - Reel Big Fish (surprisingly good fun album)

I like the new Franz Ferinand too.

i dont think i purchased anything else made in 2005 that i really listened to more than once or twice.

Tom Cruise sucks, so it's not a problem.  The problem is that Beck's music is good, but Beck himself by virtue of his cultism is a problem.
