    When you eat fish, you become fish

    but what i really can't eat are crustaceans, from shrimps, crabs, crayfish to lobsters. i addition to tasting bad (and especially fishy in the case of shrimps) they are also disgusting animals with way too many legs. i'd rather eat a spider.

    haha i know so many friends and my father think alike

    yes, i mean the taste is not different but you can just feel the freshness in your mouth and the best part is I just add the spices in it that i want to marinate it...trust me better than canned ones... hard to explain in words you see...do you not have a local fish market or a supermarket where they stock fresh fish??

    What are you doing right now?

    I'm currently working in Japan, for an Eikaiwa company (foreign language instruction as a business). I've been here for 10 years now, watched the company go bankrupt an get taken over by another one. They cut costs, i.e. our salaries and made us work all the time we were being paid. It was a hell too much for a lot of us who'd gotten used to getting paid a lot to do close to fuck all work, a lot left for greener pastures, most to attempt to come back later as the ass fell out of the whole market. I stayed and ended up getting promoted for no extra money: lots of extra work for no extra pay was not ideal but after a year I renegotiated my salary back to what it was before.This year I was promoted to area manager of Tokyo which is by far the biggest in the country, no extra salary but the added bonuses each year makes up for the added work and all the fucktards I have to deal with, seriously I cannot believe the number of Americans who think they're the best thing ever while actually being semi retarded, the number of Brits that won't come to work for the stupidest reasons, the Aussies who can't keep from getting sick, the Kiwis who can't get out of bed to come to work and the Canadians who are so paranoid they won't even take the company health check.In my time I've done training, recruitment and management. During my time recruiting, I had a hit tonne of applicants who I couldn't believe could make it through a day without killing themselves let alone travel abroad and get a job.CVs (Resumes) I rejected:People who had had lots of jobs in a short period of timePeople who couldn't spellPeople with rotten grammarPeople far too qualified for the position and any likely future positionsPeople who had large gaps in their employment historyInterviewees I rejected:People who wouldn't stop talkingPeople who couldn't communicate at allPeople who slagged off their previous employersPeople who said they'd never had a problem in previous jobsPeople who had no idea about the companyThe guy who showed up in a tracksuitThe guy who was late because he got distracted using facebook (actual excuse)Everyone who was late for no reason.The guy who answered his phone during the interviewThe guy who came drunkThe guy who wouldn't believe the interview was no smokingI'm so glad I don't do that anymore, it was soul destroying to see how many different ways people can fuck up a job application.

    Wow interesting profile... I love the nationality bashing you did there...lol...you havent mentioned Indian's... I guess we have spared Japan ;)

    I worked in retail banking for 5 years for a Cypriot Bank In Greece, I quit and got a lump sum (AKA Golden Handshake) only 1 month before the Cypriot Banks collapsed and the ECB saved them (gotta trust your instict!!!!!)

     

    I now do a job that I REAALY enjoy, I work in the office for a company in the entertainement sales and services (professional sound and lighting sales and rentals), so I'm inside the Broadcasting and club/bar/live music industry... It's full of rotten people, very demanding but it pays well and it's very rewarding at the same time +++++ I get free entrance and/or drinks at all the concerts, live stages, clubs and bars.

    That's hell of a job mate...

    Sky Input is an album created by God. When I first listened to it I could't believe how it's possible so much awesomeness to fit in a single cd.

    wow this album is amazing... thanks...

     

    That's what I thought also. But then I read some folk's review basically saying that it isn't that special (I guess it depends on your taste but still it is pretty awesome.)

    I think that many people who enter the psytrance scene in the post-Golden Era (post-1998) times, myself included, initially find fullon to be pretty cool. After all, it's energetic, and to varying degrees melodic and/or psychedelic. But at some point people's opinions diverge; many jump full-body into the fullon scene, but others delve into the past of the music or into alternate branches of the present and find a wider variety of psytrance styles.

     

    For those of us in the latter group, fullon often quickly starts to sound homogenized, stale, uninspired, lowest-common-denominator tripe. Since we here at Psynews tend toward that latter group, we tend to have a pretty negative opinion of fullon.

     

    Of course, people here also tend toward an even worse opinion of dubstep... ;)

    absolutely i couldnt agree more... Initially after listening to the new school fullon i am of the opinion that dubstep is crap with no melodies (i still listen to it though lol)...look at what these psy music producers produce, so much creativity...

    but after i listening to the likes of duotekk's dunamis, cosmosis psychedelica melodica, i realised how creative and non repetitive old tracks were... I must have hardly listened to maybe 3-4 old school full on, but they indeed are mind boggling....

    Im sure that there's lots to discover for newbies like me in the old school genre...
