Hey now, I still like them. What I said was, "I was pretty excited for this band… before they got big." I just don't go telling people about them because they've become a very well-known entity. You're just putting words in my mouth, and it's understandable, but stop it.

"Dude, people are always complaining and bitching about how things aren't new—get out of here!"

"That's why I like metal fans; they're smart enough not to take these things literally."

Yeah, didn't Luke Perry try out for that role, too? He's totally gay, by the way.

IMO
This sounds like Joe Perry, Steve Perry, and Perry Farrell put together the Scratch Perry-produced soundtrack to a Tyler Perry movie, with Adam Perry of the Bloodhound Gang drumming and extensive Perry Como samples.

I'm not going to pretend I got into Clap Your Hands Say Yeah in any context other than Pitchfork's flavor of the week, and I can understand your semi-dismissal, but I think that, approaching music as you seem to from the sound angle more than the song angle, you could do well to give them a second chance.

In retrospect, that was not a good place for the word "vindicate."

Does it vindicate you to know that other people, as well as yourself, are aware of a track on a painfully ubiquitous album? It should not, yet you say it does. Baffling; just baffling.

"my wife and I were watching figure skating, and she literally said, "Someone should make a comedy about figure skating.' The next day, I get this call about this script, Blades Of Glory, and I was like 'Oh my God, that's ironic—and hilarious.' "

Personally
I was surprised that The Bourne Ultimatum won as many as it did, even though none of them were important, since obviously no Oscars are important.

Is Rashomon gimmicky? I thought it was an important and classic film, and therefore not really comparable to a dismissable, shitty thriller.

I think nearly everyone is too taken aback by the ending to actually notice the point. Over and over again.

I haven't, largely due to not using conditioner

Really? It looked pretty sick to me. This one looks exactly like I'd expect a big-budget revival of Indiana Jones to look, which is to say that if I was eight again, I'd rent this on VHS in a heartbeat. And damn if I don't love me some Harrison Ford.

that pizza
looks great

Oh, looks like they do. Just the first question then.

Do you have a recommendation for which of their albums to start with? Do they even have more than one album?

No Question
Mean Girls is tops.

Nestled between dips into this Agha Shahid Ali collection, your post seemed to me to be a poem.

Monty Python Week, huh?
