Kinetic

Oddly enough, I've never really cared for Big Star. It seems like something I would like and I know there are a lot of otherwise reasonable people who really like those first two albums, but they just don't do much for me. In fact, I think I like the song "Alex Chilton" better than anything its namesake ever wrote. The first Weezer album is nice enough, but it puzzles me how it's endured as a staple on the playlist with people around my age. I find the second Weezer album pretty nauseating now, but I really enjoyed it in high school. Also strange how that record seems to have been the catalyst for the wave of awful emo bands that emerged this decade. Everything of their's I've heard since Pinkerton has been really terrible. I liked the first Fountains of Wayne album a lot in high school, but it doesn't hold up well for me. Utopia Parkway was a crushing disappointment to me when it came out and it hasn't improved with age. There's "Denise" and "It Must Be Summer" and "The Senator's Daughter." I don't think I like anything else on there, although it's admittedly been years since I've listened to it.

If anything, you should be ashamed of suppressing your tears. Crying is good for you. It cleanses the soul.

If you had everything you wanted, you would eventually want for something else. You would realize that even those things you had longed for could not make you happy, and that life is just a one-way trip to Miserabletown with no relief to be found anywhere. It's all a lie, man. It's all just a bunch of bullshit.

This is why I'm hot. This is why I'm hot. I'm hot cuz I'm fly. You ain't cuz you not. This is why. This is why. This is why I'm hot. That one's for you, Byron.

Oh, it's not easy to resist temptation, walking around looking like a figment of somebody else's imagination. Taking every word she says just like an open invitation, but the power of persuasion is no match for ANTICIPA-SHUN! Like a finger...runnning dowwwwwn a seam. From a whisper to a scream! So I whisper and I scheme, but don't get me wrong. Please don't leave me waiting too long. Waiting too long. Waiting too long. Waiting too long. Oh, if the customers like it, then they'll keep on paying. If they keep on drinking, then they'll end up staying. I heard someone say "Where have we met before?" but the one over the eight seems less like one and more like four. (The fuck does that mean?) Like a finger...running dowwwwn a seam. From a whisper...to a scream! So I whisper and I scheme, but don't get me wrong. Please don't leave me waiting too long. Waiting too long. Waiting too long. Waiting too long. And so on.

Franchise Rper (Raper?) 4 Life turns 23 today. Cheers, mate! Should we have a OaO Such and Such is Celebrating a Birthday Today thread?

Yeah, I vomited up much of that pasta salad. We're just a couple of peas in a pod, King of All Blacks.

Frankly, and not that anyone asked, but this Trust album is probably my 2nd favorite Costello record, right behind Get Happy!

This was my mistake, as well. I had some pasta salad somewhere in there, but nothing else. Luckily, I was just drinking beer. If I had ventured into hard liquor, there's no telling how shitty I would feel today.

You need protection from the physical part of conversation. Though the pen is mightier than the lip, it adds the aggrava-shun! I got the password. I got persuasion! A proposition for invasion of your privacy. Give yourself away and find the fake in me. YOU'LL NEVER BE A MAN! No matter how many foreign bodies you can take. You'll never be a man. When you're half a woman and you're half-awake, with a face full of tears and a chemical shake, given half a chance that I can take. Are you so superior, are you in such pain? ARE YOU MADE OUT OF PORCELAIN? When they made you, they broke the cast. Don't want to be first, I just want to last. You strike a profile on the low side of my imagina-shun. My eyes climbed down to find the point of possible satura-shun!! I got the password! I got persuasion! A proposition for invasion of your privacy. Give yourself away and find the fake in me. YOU'LL NEVER BE A MAN! And so on.

No shit. I should smoke some weed. I found out yesterday that very few people in my life are familiar with the phrase "hair of the dog." But I was undeterred. I just kept on saying it.

A few things: *As Spiff mentioned, two defensive players who will not be on the field at the same time will now have radio communication with the sideline. *No more force-out rule. *No more five yard facemask calls. Whether this results in there being less facemask calls or just more 15 yarders remains to be seen. *The proposal to ban long hair seems to have died.

I'm not sure how to categorize today's hangover. Yesterday was something of a non-day; I woke up drunk, drank all day, and eventually fell asleep drunk. I feel terrible. I should eat some McDonald's, right?

I was too distracted to really pay attention last night. It doesn't sound like I missed anything too worthwhile.

I guess he had been campaigning for it. It's all fucking politics, man. Just a big popularity contest with these guys.

Benoit v. Retard Child and Life was WM highlight. More thoughts layter.

However, "Optimistic" rocks.

I've posted 39 times today. That's 6.69% of all board activity for the day! Let me be a cautionary tale for all young posters out there: Don't do as Kinetic done did.

The Dave Attell series Insomiac suggests a level of fun that is not present with the actual affliction. Do 'Head heads remember a song called "How To Disapper Completely and Never Be Found." The album version of that sucks.

I'm listening to Kid A several years after the fact in Athens, Georgia. This is probably not the greatest moment in my life. It is something less.

The phrase " I see you hating," which was introduced to me by former forums.thesmartmarks.com poster Incandenza, continues to inform my every interaction with people, be it online or in person. Those receiving drunken PMs from me should consider it a compliment. I only contact those who I hold in high regard.

I actually met some douche from pitchforkmedia.com at a Radiohead show in Italy back in 2000. I mentioned how I felt that the bears would figure heavily into the artwork for Kid A. He blew me off! There was a shooting star during "Pyramid Song." This was probably the greatest moment of my life.

I still hate this "Videotape" song. Remember the pre-Kid A live recordings of "Motion Picture Soundtack"? Much better than the album version. Oh, and "True Love Waits." This band is better than Gwar. My 16 year old mind was right on that much.

Agent is the best thing to ever happen to this board. Were he to be demodded, I would have to make a video depicting the scenario in some sort of amusing way.

Furthermore, the ability to change one's username is not a mandate for one to do so. Think about it, SpatulaNose McVegantreats.
