Denial is not just a river in Africa. Anyone who has taken a basic college psychology course will tell you that each one of you has some sort of psychological disfunction. A chemical imbalance if you will. The recent behavior of some of the forumers can be clinically diagnosed and some sort of disorder could be attributed to it. If you take a look at Kubler-Ross model of grief (death or loss), you'll see that each one of you are at a different stage of it. Here's Wikipedia explaining this phenomenon in a much more detail. " The
KÃŒbler-Ross model, commonly referred to as the "
five stages of grief", is a hypothesis introduced by
Elisabeth KÃŒbler-Ross[1] and says that when a person is faced with the reality of impending
death or other extreme, awful fate, he or she will experience a series of emotional stages: denial, anger, bargaining,
depression, and acceptance." In our case we are faced with the reality of impending awful chemical fate, the next album. It's not hard to deduce from the current sounds coming from the chemical headquarters that the future chemical brothers release would be a big flop. Couple of songs might save it some face but overall it would be a humiliating and an embarrassing loss which will inevitably turn off all the current fans and chances of having new fans will exponentially go down with every release. Some of you are not taking this news well. Csar has shown multiple stages of this model, denial about the existence of anything wrong and being overly optimistic, some anger towards me (I'm just the middle man, don't shoot the messenger), bargaining when he says "well can't cant speculate just yet but I sort of agree with you about the quality of these two tracks". Eventually you'll see this bargaining will lead to depression from having the truth sink in and then finally acceptance. Then you'll realize the chemical reaction was right all along. Same thing happened with other forumers, calling me names like "shit silpvin" and just general hostility towards me, clearly in the "anger" phase. The sooner you'll realize where you stand the sooner we can treat you. The choice is yours.
Oh come on, chemicalreaction. This is getting out of hand
. You can't take yourself that seriously
. I've never been mad at you, surprised describes it best. I just felt to discuss my opinion here like you. Hm, maybe I've reached the stage of amusement. Ross shoild incorporate this as a sixth neutral construct to serve as a bias factor. Well, you certainly amused me however.
