Beatboxing
 

Hey does anyone like beatboxing. I wouldn't say i'm a massive fan but I restpect the people that can do it I think it requires a great amount of skill.

I vomit every time I see them do it on the fruit pastil advert.

Yeah that annoys me that advert there is a number of things you can do besides chew with a fruit pastille you can stick them to things, use them as ptrojectiles with a mini catapult, stand on them, jump on them, spit them out in disgust, stick them to cats, throw them out of a window, throw them out of a different window, swallow them hole, practice football with them, throw them at your enemies, offer them to friends even though its already been in your mouth, play snooker with them the list is endless. But nevertheless beatboxing is a skill.

I hate beatboxing and regard people who devote time to it as lowlifes.

I can beat box for about half a minute at a time. Then I have to wipe the saliva off my hands. As such, I don't bother about beat boxing that much, other than when I'm doing it for a joke (in which case, half a minute is far too long anyway).

I can listen to a beat boxer if he's (never come accross a decent female beat boxer) good. But only when I've no choice.

Real drums > someone spitting into their hand.

If you think someone spitting into their hand has 'skill' then you've obviously never seen a real drummer. It's funny 'cause they think fart noises sound like drums. Infidels.

sorry, but I reckon that REAL drumming requires WAY more skill.

Real drums require infinitely more skill, and sound a lot better too. Beatboxing is a joke.

It's not even a funny joke.

Exactly. Thank you, RV.

Beatboxing is a bad joke and not even a very good one! :P

Re-read that sentence, turn around six times, and re-read it again.

It was a joke :P You're worse than Ben :p

I am at yours a lot Daz. But you've got to say that people like Rahzel have got an incredible amount of skill as they can both beatbox and sing AT THE SAME TIME!

Your joke was almost as bad of a joke as Beatboxing is.

No I don't.

Can you beatbox and sing at the same time. Come on Daz you know what i'm talking about back me up here.

I can compose and publish complete tracks without so much as opening my mouth I'm that good.

Yes but thats where the skill comes in the fact that these people don't need instruments or anything else.

And that's why the music they make sounds like shit.

well you have your oppinion and I have mine.

But mine is better. It's all shiny and uses grammar.

I don't need to be shiny to be good my mum said.

The correct wording;

My mum said I don't need to be shiny to be good.

beatboxing is just a bunch of idiots standing on stage covering their mouths with music playing on speakers.

o.k. brandon whatever you say. I know I can't beatbox but I still think theres some element of skill in it.

Beatboxing sucks. Beatboxers suck. I'm sorry, but I have to agree 100% with RV on this. In fact, I'm no longer posting in this thread. RV now speaks for me here about beatboxing. :P

I second that motion.

Heheh, don't worry, they're banned now. :)

For two weeks.

Two weeks where you'll be the one with the worst linguistic skills, Ben :P

Linguistic skills I have learned to appreciate in the face of much, much worse :D

ah, yes, but you've got to admit, my linguistic skills aren't that bad (when I'm not smashing the keyboard :P)...especially considering their grammar, maybe being banned will teach them a lesson.

Which I did, in fact, admit in the last sentence in my post :P

Just like old times, eh? :D

ah yes, just like old times, I think I'm dumb, or maybe just happy :P.
You know, there is this band that I like, I'm sure you've heard of them, sadly they're aren't around anymore. They go by the name of...............................Winterville :P hehe.

Erm I'm going to request if someone could please close this obviously I can't change your mind so please somebody.

Beatboxers don't even *sound* like drums. yes, not a lot of people can do it, that doesn't make it a skill. I can touch my nose with my tongue, something not a lot of people can do, I don't consider it a "skill" though.

What ever you say Ronnie. will somebody please put a stop to this thread please.

just leave it inactive, it will automatically close after a certain period of time.

Good now I can go back to more pressing things like humming.

Closed, after request.
