Thank the gods.) wow way to denigrate music videos as an art form when i watch music videos i take it holistically; if im listening to the album im just listening to the music urbandictioanry 2nd definition for legit: 1. (adj.) A modern synonym for words such as "cool," "ill," "tight," or "dope." Used to describe a noun that is of a particularly excellent quality. The slang use of this term is slowly but steadily increasing in popularity. like this is clearly legit + Show Spoiler + | ||

it kinda carries the connotation of the word "legitimate" without actually requiring it to be technically legitimate if that doesnt make sense its fine | ||

in my mind i can interpret anything as art, it really depends on my own frame of mind more than anything else like there are quite a few interesting shots in that miley cyrus video again though you probably just have a higher standard for interesting i mean i definitely think the director, diane martel apparently, was aiming higher than "we really need a music video, 'cuz else we'll get less views on YouTube and MTV will broadcast us less, so let's film some random stuff" considering there's even a directors cut that slightly differs, but clearly she failed in your eyes | ||

I don't have any strong opinions one way or the other on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, I've just been reading a lot about the Crusades this year and there are some striking similarities between the Outremer and Israel. | ||

I don't have any strong opinions one way or the other on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, I've just been reading a lot about the Crusades this year and there are some striking similarities between the Outremer and Israel. It depends on the context but I doubt it's ever worth to use that comparison unless you're sure the conversation is about history and not about the clash of cultures. Saying someting like that in a discussion about modern politics is just asking for a flame war. | ||

I do not see any tweet posted on TL, I always have to guess that there is one, then 'quote' the post to copy-paste the URL. Is that a known problem, and/or is there a fix? | ||

Otherwise go to tech support subforum. | ||

Is that a known problem, and/or is there a fix? Same problem here (using FireFox), I asked for help some time ago without results. I also found out that this applied to other embedded tweets - on LeMonde.fr, for example - while it works on other browsers, like Chrome. | ||
