You guys are idiots and I am a unique individual who will not bow to your standards. Well done you are now going to miss out on mah wisdom, nice going dickwad. EVANNESSENSE FTW!!!", before heading off to make 50 threads about how much this site sucks.
You seem like a reasonable guy with a few brain cells, so once everyone's popped in to tell you how much it all sucks you'll probably get along fine here. And there are some pretty good reccommendations on music, literature and movies to be found if you're interested in branching out.

I have never really taken any of the negative stuff personally, although sometimes I do wind up wording things in a way that comes off like I do. I don't let criticism or negative comments get to me. If I did then I would be a bit of a hypocrite because I'm the same way now and then. Besides, I can take a lot of crap.

Agreed. I'll look them up, thanks.

I think that would be rather pointless, since I'm going to be myself regardless of what is said or done towards me. I don't like everything anyway. If I did then Brittany Spears would be on the list as well *shudders at the thought of listening to her music*.
Only real reason I like Evanescence is due to a personal reason and I identified with a couple of songs. Nightwish, mainly because I like opera and rock and they were the only bands I know that is anywhere close to a mix of the two. I do suppose it was dumb to consider any bands my true favorites since I don't really listen to bands, I listen to songs. I tend to say I listen to this band or that band because it is easier than listing a bunch of songs I like instead.
Example-I only listen to about four songs that t.a.T.u made, eight including the russian versions.
