| Bad Religion – Ad Hominem Lyrics | 9 years ago |
|
@[manchez:16122] I'm struggling to understand that reasoning. Jtpow addressed the idea of religious people often turning to ad hominems to defend their beliefs as an example. Which is a very legitimate example. In turn you criticised him of using an ad hominem, when he never addressed anybody personally; but instead addressed the idea (which we have already established as not being an ad hominem.) You then said that everyone uses ad hominems including his mommy and daddy. Then you persisted to say that no bad religion song will make his life complete. This is litterally the definition of irony. Instead of addressing the issue at hand, ---which was that you thought it was unfair that he used religion as his sole example; you attacked him by calling him close minded. |

| Paul Westerberg – As Far As I Know Lyrics | 9 years ago |
|
To me, this song is about how the narrator has created an image of the perfect girl in his head. The way I hear this song, it sounds like he builds his dream of the perfect girl through watching TV, and imagining the encounters he would have with this person. In the last part he says the dream he had as a kid came true, which to me refers to him growing up into the person he wanted to be; but the dream he has of the perfect person never came true. As far as he knows, that is. I really love this song. Possibly the best pseudo love song I've ever heard. |
