  2. I will never understand how someone could do something like this. It just baffles me. How anyone could end the life of an innocent, undeserving human being is so beyond me
  3. In Video Games, I always heard: "You take it over here and play your video game" but its actually "You say get over here and play a video game" Not a funny one, but didn't notice I was wrong for a LONG time
  4. Go for it, if you think it's better merged I don't mind. I just wanted to start the discussion again
  5. haha well maybe the other one can just be deleted. Since this one already has more posts than the other lol

    omg I cannot believe this. I have actually listened to one of Baby K's songs before and I cannot believe that she has just copied the exact sound omg this is actually hilarious!
  8. I've gotta say, this instrumental does sound a lot like something Lana would sing over. After hearing this track, I really hope she is working with him. I think they'd make good songs together
  9. I agree to be honest. Barry was a great guy but I just don't think the relationship could ever have truly worked with him being even more depressive and dark than Lana. Franny was kinda cute but unfortunately I can't say that there were any other desirable features with him As for Jonathan, I think he seems like one of the better guys Lana's been with. To my knowledge, he's not a dickhead like Franny or moody like Barry... PLUS, he's a musician so I definitely think that if he is indeed dating her, things actually could work out.
  10. I liked the blonde better but whatever, if she likes the darker shade better then good for her. Just makes no sense to go to blonde for like 2 weeks then go back to the old ways? It's also kind of funny in a way to see her just going grocery shopping. Like, I know she's a normal human like the rest of us but it just seems so funny to me. On another note, poor girl can never catch a break. Can't even buy her groceries without being photographed!
  11. I feel the same way about Puppy Love. I'd heard it sped up and now the original sounds WAY too slow for me.
  12. A fourth theory proposed by Mullen (1983, 1987) explains the effect of group size on conformity in terms of self-attention theory (Carver, 1979; Carver & Scheier, 1981), which holds that the more attention is focused on the self, the more people will attempt to match their behaviour to salient behavioural standards. Where this is the majority norm, greater self-attention, will result in greater conformity. Mullen argues that increasing majority size will lead to greater self-attention, since the minority individual will increasingly stand out as the figure against the ground provided by the majority, and hence increasingly feel the focus of attention. oops it's my psychology research
  13. What a plot twist. There's speculation the killer was a closeted gay himself and he had supposedly been to the nightclub a number of times prior to the shooting & had sent messages to other gays on dating apps. http://www.palmbeachpost.com/news/news/orlando-shooter-omar-mateen-was-gay-former-classma/nrfwW/ Too bad Islam tends to be one of the least accepting religions in terms of homosexuality. It seems he had a clash between his religious identity and his homosexuality, which led him to being frustrated at other gays who could openly have relationships and in anger, killed a group of them. Such a horrible time.
  14. Interesting read! @@PrettyBaby I've never really thought of Lana as ISFP, but now that you explain it, I think it's quite possible that is her type. I suppose I've just always thought of her Ni as being higher in the list of functions, but I suppose it could just be that her tertiary function is highly developed. And considering that Lana seems to me a most intelligent woman, very in tune with her inner core, it wouldn't surprise me that she's managed to develop her third function to such a level. Your explanation of her Fi actually makes a lot of sense as well. Fe types tend to have more expressive personalities, while Fi types tend to be less charismatic and can sometimes appear more "cold" than Fe types - this actually could fit with Lana, especially considering that some people find her "fake" or "plastic" based on her interviews, performances and so on. Fi types also tend to be more private, which in a way fits Lana. I think that she never really likes to open up about details about her life (we all know how contradictory and confusing it is when she tries to recount her past). Thanks for your insight. I find personality psychology one of the most captivating areas of psychological study and love linking it to real-life people, especially celebrities, since there is so much information available about them. Plus, it'd probably be creepy if I started profiling people I know in reality, and I'd also have no one to discuss my ideas with!
  15. I think this also should everyone to be careful when going out. I'm not saying that we should hide ourselves all the time as LGBT+ but please, if you sense that you are in danger or in the presence of an overly homophobic person, please be careful. I know this couldn't have helped in this particular situation, as it was completely uncalled for and no one suspected this was about to happen. But just something think about. Again, this is horrible and may all the murdered souls rest in peace.
  16. Hi everyone! For those of you who have studied/know about the work of Carl Jung/Myers-Briggs, I'd love to hear what you think Lana's personality type is, using the Myers-Briggs type indicator. I know we've had a thread dedicated to the types of users on this forum, but we never discussed what we think Lana's type is. I've read on external websites but a lot of the posts were made during the BTD/Paradise era, and I don't think at that time we had the best view of Lana's personality, as a lot of people were still making comments about how she's "fake" and "inauthentic" and so on, which I think made a lot of the guesses inaccurate and biased. Personally, I think she's either an INFJ or INFP, but I'm not sure which fits her the best. I am an INFJ myself, so I'm not sure if that's subconsciously influencing my typing of her, and possibly making it a biased analysis. I do see a lot of INFJ tendencies in her, but also in some ways, I think she could be an INFP as well. I'll try to explain my typing. To begin with, she's easily an introvert - I really don't see the point in debating it. She clearly draws her energy from her internal world and this is clear in her art and through the way she acts in her interviews. Plus, she's even stated it herself: I definitely think she's an iNtuitive and Feeling type. The quote above could also be used to highlight her iNtuitive trait. She seems to fit this description quite well about the NF (Idealist) temperament: She always states she's a songwriter first, then a singer. I think this is interesting considering the above description. She's certainly an intuitive person, and you can see that through a lot of her work. She's certainly a feeling type as well, in my opinion. Remember that video of her comforting a crying fan (I believe this took place in France)? Well, she seemed genuinely concerned for her and stayed with her for a while. I think she takes on the emotional state of others. For example, I feel like Ultraviolence is such a dark album because she absorbed a lot of the emotional darkness from Barrie. He was suffering from depression, insomnia and a number of other things that obviously had a negative impact on his mental health, and I think Lana soaked a lot of that energy from him and took it upon herself. The J and the P is where I struggle to define her. A part of me thinks she's clearly a P. She seems to take things as they come rather than plan miles in advance. The "Ride" video in particular makes me think she's a P. But at the same time, I do believe that she often exaggerates her life, experiences and ideas for the sake of enhancing her music and her art, so it's hard to tell if the "Ride" video is "100% autobiographical" as she always states her music is, or whether there are a number of embellishments and a heap of hyperboles just to make the music more interesting and "cinematic", as she puts it. The reason I doubt she could be an INFP is because their dominant function is Introverted Feeling, and I feel like Lana has a lot more Extroverted Feeling, especially since she tends to absorb the emotions of those around her, as I stated above. I feel like her intuition is more Introverted than Extroverted as well. Sensing and Thinking I'm not too sure about. Personally I can only see her as being an INF- type, just unsure about the P/J. I've seen some people type her as an S over N, but I don't see it as much as her intuitive side. What do y'all think?

  18. how the hell did you find the email? queen of stalking
  19. My apologies, just saw this post and you're right. It wasn't a hacker at all
  20. I really doubt that's something Lana would honestly say. Maybe the hacker is pretending to be Lana, posting something that she would be likely to post. Who knows at this point?
  21. Bombs on Monday is the biggest bop and better than most songs on Cry Baby in my opinion. I wish she'd ditch this baby thing, it's getting old. I'd like some more songs that sound more personal and less contrived
  22. Thank you so much, glad you liked it!
