I get a weird sensation when I hear music I listened to when I was teenager, and it is not nostalgia.

Some may say it sets off my Title Fight or Flight

You can call him Al, but Paul Simon can call her, β€œSome roly-poly little bat-faced girl” ?????

Please.

It’s sooooo fucked. Hiring freezes have happened pretty regularly, but not with recensions of positions. Several of my moms friends have been radicalized because they had to rescind offers to people amidst onboarding that already have notice to their previous employers

I believe β€œChristmas Wrapping” by The Waitresses to be the best Christmas song for the sole reason of the first lyrics being, β€œBah humbug.”

I mean, I have a pretty severe allergy to nickel, so coated strings are legitimately life-saving for me

They’re coated so they may as well be

A very funny phenomenon is that after posting this photo, learned Ken Marino grew up in my hometown (West Islip) and we went to the same MS/HS. My mother graduated 2 years ahead of him, and my old music/arts teachers remember him as a student and the lead in Guys and Dolls in middle school.

i love that blur wrote the woohoo song to make fun of american grunge rock and americans were like "wow this slaps" and then continued ignoring blur

My biggest issue with the HBO Yact Rock Dock-umentary is that for some reason Fred Armisen was the first person to speak?

Every time I see β€œLimited edition OCD” my brain goes, β€œHm yeah I wonder if it’s like contamination OCD or the kind of OCD that makes you think you hit someone with your car and you constantly look in your rearview to make sure you didn’t” and then I’m like oh….it’s just a drive pedal

Not much of an opinion, mate. They used a bunch of minors to run their record label for free work and also never paid them on top of tons of other issues. So just because they were nice to you (while obv being on their best behavior since the outing) they’re fine? Low bar

They’re been focusing more on overseas where they are more forgiving and excited to have a β€œUS band,” on their soil. Unfortunate indeed.

Cancel culture didn’t finish them, then being absolute twats on top of their friend being a creep finished them.

This band is a sham. Used to be pretty big and their drummer, son of Billie Joe Armstrong, was ousted as a creep. They all knew and their entire image was being, β€œprogressive.”

Thank you Rao’s Sauce for having a giant Macy’s float with a fire breathing dragon named, β€œArrabiatta.”

You’ve really outdone yourself

I follow all who I could find and it still sucks so I will be seeking out the music people. Even when I select β€œshow less like this”

When are the funny people gonna join this app? All I’ve seen is a bunch of millenials posting things they posted as FB statuses a decade ago
