Has Trash Taste Changed? | Trash Taste

[@angelina3852]

I found out I was pregnant when Trash Taste started🥰 my daughter just turned 3 on April 3rd. It's crazy how time flys, and even crazier how you can get attached to people you've never met before, yet they still somehow connect to your personal life❤ I'm really grateful how something as silly as hearing 3 guys have a conversation can take your mind off postpartum depression, if even for just for an hour and half. ❤❤❤❤

hes so insufferable. the constant bs he spills is so cringe. literelly he cant even go one episode without mentioning "oh i have music background. only music people can appreciate some music" like seriously go f himself.

[@Purplepentapus_]

On "music is just beeps and boops," there are studies that have shown that some people don't really recognize lyrics/singing in music, it essentially just blends into the other instruments for them and they have a very hard time picking it out from the rest of the music. On the other hand, there are also people who essentially ONLY hear the singing, and the music falls away into the background. It explains a lot of why people will have such drastically different opinions on one song or another, regardless of stylistic taste, because theyre legitimately hearing different things. If the singing and lyrics of a song are good, but the music is kind of bad, one person might love it while another person might think it sounds awful Garnt and maybe Connor seem to fall into the "can't hear the lyrics group"

[@Purplepentapus_]

And of course there are still the people who hear the whole package

[@e-spaceofknowledge]

And then there's me, I cannot focus on the lyrics or know what's going on, yet I can't recognize the instruments either, like I'm just listening to a bunch of unrecognizable sounds that just fit each other, but from time to time I can become aware of the instruments or the lyrics but not both.

[@oceanicGrimalkin]

23:23 That's how I think about visual art too. As an artist, sometimes you just create something out of random whimsy. Some art, especially unexplained abstract pieces, don't have any inherent meaning. Some people argue that your background, interests, and ideology affect everything you produce, but that results in even more viewers arguing to each other about which interpretation is more "valid" or "true", even if the artist outright says their work doesn't have any meaning in it. Some people mistake "meaning" for "applicability".

[@abinjjaimon]

Unironicaly, I only started appreciating abstract art ,after I visited a Modern Art gallery with my friends, where we discussed the meaning behind seemingly shit art. At first this started off as a joke, but the more we talked, the more serious it got.

[@oceanicGrimalkin]

@@abinjjaimon Yeah. On a related note, there are plenty of pretty crap art (as subjective the standards of "crappy art" are) regardless of its intent, ngl. Some just... tape a banana on a wall or something and call it a day. Maybe it's a callback to Duchamp's urinals as a commentary on what people would consider as aesthetically pleasing or pretentiousness, but it's still crap. I don't like gatekeeping "bad" art from being art, though, as much as some people argue that only the conventional and the pleasing are the only ones to "count" as art. It's still art regardless, and bad ones exist with the good ones. For some pieces, perhaps it's something about the form, shape, texture, etc. that makes it remarkable to the viewer rather than the interpretation or meaning. It goes the other way too, like how some people are alright with enjoying a song just for how it sounds and how catchy it is.

[@abinjjaimon]

@oceanicGrimalkin I agree 100% bc there is definitely "bad" art, as art is subjective, but if I have a visceral reaction to something MANMADE, whether good or bad, it is art. If I saw the statues or Greco-Roman architecture everywhere, I would go insane bc it is everywhere, leaving the original beauty of it all to be too "samey." But if it's too different/avant-garde, it also has a weird feeling to it as it doesn't conform with society. Also, I am a firm believer that the audience controls the meaning, becuase our experience will always carry from one another, so if the author says " it has no meaning", that doesn't mean our interpretations are wrong because there is no way to disprove your meaning becuase you felt a special connection/feeling to the art.

[@oceanicGrimalkin]

@@abinjjaimon Indeed. Art, like life, can be said as having no inherent meaning, so people create their own out of it. Navigating the flame war about which interpretation is the "correct" one on a meaningless piece more often than not just results in people trying to invalidate each other's thoughts on something highly ambiguous and subjective. I'm not sure what you meant about the latter part about "no way to disprove your meaning", though. Did you mean that since the creator has unveiled the meaninglessness of the creation, there is no "wrong" or "right" way of seeing the work (correct me if I got it wrong, because I'm not sure)?

[@abinjjaimon]

@oceanicGrimalkin p much, yeah. The author may say that their creation has no meaning, but because of its supposed "meaningless" message, it doesn't hurt if we put our spin on it, as it doesn't hurt the art itself. Like you said, life itself is meaningless, but our actions and thoughts can certainly make life meaningful.

[@sleeplessknight173]

The new feature that lets you do 2x speed only when you're holding down left click on the video is great. It allows me to speed up a part that is maybe dragging a bit, like a boring tangent or something, then just let go of left click and go back to normal. It's basically like using the arrow keys to skip forward, but without missing any info.

[@skarbone1]

Same. They were cool with Canada but have no concept that upstate New York is neighboring Canada. Niagara is a huge source of drinking water. Exactly like you said, they think one tiny island on the eastern coast of the state is the entire state. So I guess London is all of the UK, and Sydney is the entirety of Australia.

Room temperature water is good for tasting the DIFFRENCE in between different types of waters. That doesn't mean it makes the water taste the best. Ice cream without chocolate fudge makes it easier to tell the difference in between the different flavours of ice cream. That doesn't mean it's better.

[@Ash_Wen-li]

It's like that with anything really. Coffee that's too hot or cold loses a lot of nuance in taste. Same with wine (don't know who's drinking hot wine tho)

[@lizardasslick]

and cold water is good for not tasting it. The cold just masks any property of the water

[@grey_f98]

Basically they thought there was aa contradiction when there wasn't. Yes the water sommelier is right, room temperature is easier to tell taste difference. Joey is right, cold water is refreshing because it suppresses impurities. Only Connor is wrong, no room temperature water doesn't taste better, it tastes gross.

[@RetroMines]

@@grey_f98 What the heck, i cant handle this room temp water slander, first of all you can barely taste cold water and with ice cold water theres no taste as you are freezing your taste buds and the nerves cant detect anything except for that its cold. And as you said the water sommelier is right and room temp water has way more taste meaning some people can find it tastier as you find it gross. As for it being more refreshing, thats just because it stimulates your nerves and you are actively burning calories to restore your body temp, which makes you feel more energised or refreshed but it has significant down sides if you drink it regularly as it contracts your blood vessels. In general still water is way healthier than running (cold) water. But heres the real game changer, hot water or even slightly hotter than room temp; it does effectively everything that cold water does just without any down sides. Even as someone who lives in India (a very humid country), I will always go for the hot option in the water dispensers just as Connor said. But for the normal joe, its as simple as neuron activation = good and for them cold water is better

For the 2x speed argument, not many people have a lot of time to spend 2 hours of their day watching a single episode of trash taste for example. So being able to watch this at 2x speed, thus only spending an hour on it, opens me up to an hour free to do something else. I am also a regular consumer of long form commentary videos / ttrg videos. Both of which tend to be many hours long, so I save myself a lot of time that otherwise would’ve been wasted.

Shamelessly got introduced to this show through the first henti ep, then went back to the start and listened to them back and still enjoying these to this day This show is what got me into podcasts in general

[@N4lax]

Its funny that i was watching episode 1 yesterday to rewatch the tsundere story of Garnt and Joey meet up just to laugh. I watched this podcast for a while maybe started at ep. 67? and i feel like you guys have built your careers more and managed the expectations of Japan really well for viewers and content creators making it realistic, made people curious about otaku culture and made hentai cool to talk out loud in public which is funny for how degenerative tastes can be 😂

[@carogueva123]

51:36 how are they going to say the female fanbase is scary when the guys have been horny on main every season over waifu or multiple waifus of the season 😅

[@alihassoun101]

Garnts take about not watching a show you know is good because you feel like in your current mood/headspace you won’t be able to enjoy it makes so much sense. I always end up watching isekai or something fantasy related or even scroll through shorts.

[@YellowJacket_10]

21:11 Hi Joey ..I hate to be that person. Sorry but Turning Japanese is about is about turning into something your mind can't comprehend ... A lot of people misinterpreted that song obviously because of the lyrics..it is a sad song...now every time I listen to it I feel sad ...at first I also thought it was weird fun, out there song. That's why I think your point is right that lyrics change so much about how you perceive songs... But I like Grant and Conner's way of listening to music by "VIBES"😅 sry my man Anyway congrats for 200+ episodes and great special Love you guys🎉

[@killerqueen4558]

this is literally like a summary episode of the past 4 years 😆😆

[@thegoods6122]

I WAS THINKING THE HITALIA THING FOR THAT WHOLE DISCUSSION I WAS LOOSING IT THANK GOD JOEY SAID SOMETHING! Also can yall please mark the videos as podcasts on the backend so we can listen on KZbin music with podcast controls? Would deeply appreciate it 🙏🏻

[@Lukai312]

Glad Joey is finally getting fact checked. It’s been a long time coming

[@VVS_jeezy]

i’ve never watched a youtube video at 1.5 speed before but to me it made the episode funnier😂

[@zorlich3000]

This podcast is the slop that I watch while I eat. I'm doing it rn Regardless, love your work TT boys

[@maineman5757]

The boys don't realize that Adam Sandler never stopped making movies. I mean everytime he releases a new movie on Netflix it's trending.

[@touchme8425]

Connor :" I don't like voice acting in my JRPG I wanna make my own interpretation of the story and dialog" OR (not in this episode) "Sometimes I prefer the dub over the sub" Also Connor literally minutes later : WHY would you not enjoy things the way they were intended to be enjoyed??!! I really like this guy , up until the point someone asks his opinions on almost anything 💀

[@GeebusCrust]

It said that room temperature is the best for taste differentiation, not that it tastes best. Cold water just tastes similar across the board, so it comes down to what taste you would rather have over cold water.

[@javi4591]

17:26 I think the perfect analogy for this is YOASOBI's Racing through the Night. The songs lyrics are depressing af but if you don't know what it means, the vibe is banging.

[@Avbuub]

I've been watching the boys since the beginning and I'm still here for it 🎉🎉. Congrats on the 4 years!!!

[@SnickMonster]

I can't believe Connor and Garnt are one of those people who didn't know what the song Pumped Up Kicks was about. Like I was thinking about it when they said they don't process lyrics or know what a song is about and glad Joey has that thought too. Blows my mind any time someone tries to say it's a "catchy light hearted and happy" song. Absolutely wild.

[@InugamiTheHound]

that is very common thing, especially with americans in high school didn't know that song was about shooting someone until they read the lyrics.

[@SnickMonster]

@@InugamiTheHound Or you could just listen to the song???

[@InugamiTheHound]

@@SnickMonster sadly i was one of smart people out of high school, who read the lyrics and wasn't shocked by it. I am not like the other millennial and gen z kids post high school who have no medial literacy.

[@dayman1730]

​​@@InugamiTheHound no way you said that. dorky 🤓

[@vindifference]

First time I heard that song I at least paid attention to the gun/bullet lines and told myself it had to be metaphorical cause ain't NO WAY we're literally chasing them kids to such a cheerful happy tune.

[@allanc_me763]

What I learned is that, people dont hate 7 deadly sins, they hate themselves for liking it in the first place 😂😂😂

[@aelime7093]

music being beeps and boops is a thing in adhd individuals, its a symptom called auditory processing disorder

[@blackouthorus1519]

So connor probably has it lol

[@jatinchanchlani8982]

Thank you another random internet person for diagnosing me with ADHD because I am not a pretentious music analyzer or don't understand the lyrics and only listen to chill out and fill the silence in my room. The wolrd doesn't need actual therapists but you and you only

[@mart1saura]

Happens to me a lot, didn't know it was because adhd, in my head the voice and lyrics sound line the guitars and drum, as if i only enjoy the melody. If i try hard enough tho, i can understand the lyrics and their meaning

[@canadalovesanime3137]

Interesting. I was diagnosed with ADHD, yet I love music, and learn lyrics rather quickly. That is when I can actually hear them. I was born with about a 40% hearing loss. I love songs that make me think. I can't just have something in the background. I find trying to listen to the lyrics too distracting. I have to sit and enjoy it.

[@spainwithoutthes4376]

@@jatinchanchlani8982 Lmao the fuck are you so mad about? The original comment had no passive aggressiveness or high handedness whatsover, they were just dropping a fun fact. You can run along with that fact or not its your choice. Go touch some grass and get fresh air

[@criisjooy7805]

1:46:24 I hate to admit it, but I'm with connor here, my reason was that I was conditioned to prefer room temp water than cold water cause my aunts and grama told me if I drink cold water while I'm playing at heat with my friends, I'll catch a cold or something.

[@wolfikins2777]

The media literacy of Garnt and Connor is fascinatingly low lmaoooooo, bro they just have no media literacy

[@InugamiTheHound]

that's 99% of anime reactor community as well.

[@okand141]

I mean it's just music , why care

[@Equinoctes]

How did no one acknowledge that slick cigarette edit at 1:03:40 ?? I had to replay at slower speeds and it still looks great.

[@darkmetaknight7]

1:08:40 I have the feeling Connor is gonna love the Thousand year door remake in that case

[@Jojo_D_Northstar]

I agree with Garnt, it's easier to consume mid content you're not invested in, the one I am invested in ends up mentally draining me because I'm so locked in.

[@ArvidOlson]

Ericsson is a swedish telecom company, not a sony brand. Sony-Ericsson was a brand collaboration that made the Xperia line.

[@adriendesentenac]

Totally agree with Garnt, there are some content on KZbin (interviews, podcasts, etc.) where I'm interested in the subject but the delivery is too slow for me so I watch them at 1.5x/2x.

[@cray.z]

People have different definition of "Room Temperature", in that google result it says room temperature is 20°C, but here in SEA right now, room temperature is like 30°C, you touch stuff in your house and it's WARM.

[@J3ZU35]

Joey explaining that lyrics don't matter unless you've got good sound is a round about way of saying "music is just beeps and boops"

[@Karda_Nava]

I am an American, but I’m still 100% with Connor on the water debate. I’m a huge water drinker, & I hate ice cold water as well. I like it a little chilled & cool or just room temperature, but definitely not ice cold or with ice. I hate ice in general. Connor is totally right on that in my opinion lol.. Also, upstate NY doesn’t mean NYC like you guys were thinking there. It means the upper part of the entire state of NY which is vastly countryside & lots of nature. So that’s very believable that it has some of the best water for sure! Look up that part of the state’s nature sights & you’ll see, & understand why too. NYC is just a very small island off to the side of the state of NY.

[@cjsunburnedsavage2873]

The best tasting water comes from ground water springs. The rain water soaks through the ground until it goes bedrock layers. Then it travels along bedrock until it hits a point of exit. In this time from rain to exit, the impurities are filtered out and the minerals that make water taste better are dissolved into the water. The temperature of the water coming out of the spring is often about 46 to 52 degrees Fahrenheit.

[@enbo98]

YES, and that's a natural part of life.

[@Peeenos]

Connor's right about the water, room temperature water is ingested easier and hydrates you faster, thus making you feel 'refreshed'. Always known this as I work in the Australian desert for weeks at a time. Google - "When you drink cold water, your body has to get more energy from your body in order to warm up the cool foods and liquids. This makes the digestive process take much longer than when you drink warm liquids and could lead to indigestion, constipation, and various other digestive issues".
