The Likely Madison Beer Story (how it ends)

[powderblueboy]

I had no idea who Madison Beer was before she started dating Justin, and I'm a super huge music fan. I'm 40 and I love all genres of music, but I have to assume that since I had never heard of her, that her music is just not good. I still haven't heard her music, and I'm really afraid that if I listen to it, and it sucks, that it's gonna skewer my opinion of her. I guess I don't need to sour on his gf just because she can't make good music. She's a hottie, though. 😊

I just listened to it. In so doing, it hasn't changed my opinion one bit ... she's still a beautiful girl.

Watch out for Kimy Kim though, he's a player that just broke poor Madison't heart.

She’s not my genre but I’ve played professionally for decades so I do judge music more broadly. I heard one song of hers and thought it was pretty meh. The latest video she dropped was actually a much better song. She’s a dance pop artist, music is over-produced and over-computerized for my tastes. her videos showcase her beauty a lot - too much if it bothers but IDGAF

Here’s the song I heard I thought is better pop - bittersweet

A bit too much syrupy, sappy reverb for me...

I liked it once the first part of the music was done. Not the best video I've seen but it was pleasant to watch and listen. I wonder if Justin will go to her concerts and stuff like the other couple.

I doubt it, he's too reserved. So far it seems she goes with him to sporting events.

Reverb is sappy? All of her songs are over-produced and “manufactured” if you will. It’s not my cup of tea either, to be honest. It’s a better song than two others of hers I listened to. I’m not her demo.

He has no fucking choice in the matter.

Who is Justin Beer's audience? Pretty certain it isn't Topcat.
Don't worry, Justin won't be hanging out with them.

Justin needs to scrap all his Ornette Coleman, Arnold Schoenberg and Don Van Fliet albums.

the only time I heard her was at the victoria's secret show. personally not my type of music but it still doesnt take away the fact (IME at least lol) that she is hot. I dont care for Kpop but I love me K babes.

If that’s the new bar, AI can already produce better music and videos.

AI can produce better posts than ours too. I don’t get your point, I didnt set a new bar and i didn’t mention AI.

I’ll tell ya what AI can’t do - it can’t give you the same answer to “how many RBs were drafted in the first and second round in the last 20 years?” if you ask it twice in a row. In fact, I’d bet if you ask a third time you won’t get either of the first two answers - you’ll get a new third one

Just for the heck of it, I ran your question thru Google Gemini, and here's the answer:

How many running backs were drafted in the first and second rounds in the last 20 years in the NFL?

GOOGLE GEMINI: "The number of running backs drafted in the first and second rounds of the NFL Draft in the last 20 years (from 2005 through 2024) is approximately 60.

While an exact, single number requires compiling a definitive list of all second-round running backs for every year, the search results provide strong evidence for this estimate:

• First Round: A count of first-round running backs from 2005 through 2023 (as of the search results) indicates there were 30 running backs selected in the first round. Assuming 2024 had one or two more (one was Bijan Robinson in 2023 and one was Jahmyr Gibbs), a safe estimate for the 2005-2024 period is around 30-32 first-round RBs.
• Second Round: Historical trends show that the number of running backs taken in the second round is often comparable to, or slightly more than, the first round. If we assume a similar number to the first round (around 30), the total is approximately 60."

Historical Context

The data highlights a few key trends in the last 20 years:

• Peak Years: The years 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2012 all saw at least three running backs selected in the first round alone, with the 2008 NFL Draft notably having five first-round running backs.

Recent Decline: S********s of running backs in the first round have become less common in the past decade, with only three drafts since 2013 having multiple running backs selected in the first round."

Lol that line exactly what sucks so much about current iterations of AI. When we ask the simple question, we are asking AI to go and do just that. It’s not scientific discovery - it’s a simple year by year count. Draft picks by position each year are not a mystery.

But AI says naw, fuck that, that sounds like work - I’ll just take a swag and guess instead. lol indeed.

Yep...AI is apparently too lazy to compile a "definitive list."
