She said it to be first on the Conan backlash, plain and simple. With each new tolerability index it becomes more and more clear how infantile and useless this feature is. Amelie is nothing but a gimmick commenter who posts above the comments.

Well, I'm a bit of a sucker for analog synth interludes, so there you go. I do see what you mean about the atonality, though it doesn't bug me enough to sour me on the album.

In the commercial
it sounds like Diane Keaton is telling Rachel McAdams "Welcome to date rape! Enjoy the pain!".

Ok, that was a little dumb. But I think they're good. I'd listen to Blueberry Boat first, as that seems widely considered to be their crowning achievement.

In shorter…really.

I enjoy Widow City, although it does drag a little. Their last one I only listened to once, and then never really felt compelled to do so again. Blueberry Boat still always makes me happy though.

Well whaddaya know
They use "slobbering" as a euphemism for masturbating now?

Oh shit, guess I'm in the big leagues now.

Dang
This feels like when you're a kid in school, and there's the one kid who you and everyone else just relentlessly picks on, and he just kind of takes it, and you don't really think about it, until one day he finally just melts down and bursts into tears, and you feel that first ever horrible twinge of guilt in…

The ammo-wasting and needless attention-drawing was also quite vexing. Also, I completely forgot about this since last week, but what was up with Rick not wanting to leave the police station until he could shoot that one guy/zombie point blank in the face? Like this week he gets all squeamish about chopping up a…

Yes it was.

I liked the episode over all, but there was some bad fucking dialogue, and I think all the hate for Merle and T-Whatever is completely justified. This is kind of exactly what I was worried might happen when I heard Darabont was involved.

Oh, damn it all.

Hmmm…
I hope the new season is more in the vein of the premiere than last night's episode.

Agreed, BFG. That dog deserved a rawhide Oscar.

You know
there are plenty of great bands who make great music that you guys don't review. Maybe you could review something by them instead of putting up these useless schadenfreude pieces patting yourself on the back for being right about how bad Good Charlotte is back in 2002. I guarantee you that no one who is a…

Correction: he was being an asshole in a slightly quieter tone.

wow
I'm sorry, I just walked in to find a ton of people bending over backwards to justify a video of a man in his 50's having some kind of weird anxiety attack brought on by young people being nearby and excited to see him, so he decides to yell accusations at them.

"It whizzes along at a breakneck speed"
…not unlike this write-up.

Exactly my expectations for and reaction to this album as well.
