I also only do my job roughly 75% of the time and then pat myself on the back at the end of the day. Of course I didn't start off only doing my job 75% of the time - that's come from decades of practice and being one of the most celebrated and best paid workers in my field.

Just because it's trendy to be Zoroastrian doesn't mean every song has to be about Ahura Mazda.

gun firing sound effects for no reason skits on albums - almost universally awful, for every one good skit there's twenty lovely ones. also gently caress artists that even think to put a skit with the song instead of on a separate track. dj's that talk over a track and put all types of effects over it on their lovely radio stations (WESTWOOD EXPLOSION) thanks for making the song unlistenable rear end in a top hat

I get that a cappella music can be surprisingly versatile but every other band seems to be a one man a cappella cover act these days.

Too many cadenzas. Also, when the artist adds an ironic awards acceptance speech during the outro.

I don't like it when DJs put recordings of the rape and murder of their aunts in the middle of songs just as you're expecting the bass to really kick in. Like, I get that Mr Scratch has murdered a lot of people close to musicians, and I know he's never been brought to justice, but I don't go to clubs to listen to the slow death of innocent women.

You can have a bass drum OR bass guitar. We need to conserve low frequencies for our boys overseas.

call me old fashioned but I think there are some cliches that shouldn't go away. the power trio is a traditional staple of rock music, does replacing your rhythm sections with reanimated skeletons clanking their bones against each others ribcages really add anything to the music? Its just a fad people.

All these coded messages from the Illuminati in theremin solos need to stop. And so does my friends and family joking about not hearing them whenever I point them out, and that I'm "crazy" and they're "worried" about me and "that's not even a theremin". Real funny, guys.
