I count 6 bands who I wouldn't mind seeing if they were playing near me for under 20 dollars, and no bands who I would pay fly to Austin to watch.

Addendum: Boring people describe their tastes as "eclectic."

Agreed.  Also, 500 Miles by the Proclaimers is great for virtue that you only need to put on a slurred Scottish accent and get the audience into the call and responses enough that they don't notice how out of tune you are.

Same for me.  Alice was the first one I heard, then I listened to Lost and fell pretty hard in love with that one too.  I like Upular an awful lot, though.

I wouldn't hate it if the new bond theme had that slightly-better-sounding-than-midi sound that karaoke tracks have.

Oasis seems like the obvious answer, but I'm not really sure.

Rock Lobster is my ultimate solo karaoke song because I do I pretty mean Fred Schneider impression, but Total Eclipse of the Heart will always be the best karaoke song.

Anyone want to explain what "Come on Edward, let's bang some walls" -Edward Wallbanger means?

I'm sure if you told someone in Chicago you thought of Lana Del Ray as an indie star, there would be an audible chorus of disdaining tongue clicking from Wicker Park.  The real horror of hipsterdom at this point is the recognition that underneath all of the metaness, parody, and reappropriation, there actually are

Not legally, but you have to see something inherently creepy and vaguely pedophilic about it all.

She will take notice of me.

Pills! Uppers and Downers! It's the next logical step for you, Dewey!

The conversations about marijuana that John C Reilly and Tim Meadows have is one of the funnier things I remember from that movie.  I'm not gonna quote it because of the effort that would require, but you get the idea.

In the interest of completeness, I'm going to bring up "My Teacher's Wife," the 90's movie about Tia Carrere (a metal working hobbyist and math genius) fucking her 18 year old pupil, who is her husband's star student in his high school class.  The whole thing was screwed up on its own coming of age themes that it

I think that animation was the exact moment I decided that Natural Born Killers was one of my favorite movies.

The last episode of Superjail, where suddenly  The Warden comes to life.
The Simpsons Treehouse of Horrors where Homer goes into the Third Dimension
One of the Family Guy episodes where Stewie and Brian are traveling through different dimensions

That's…accurate, but seems kind of diminishing considering how good a movie that was.

That one threw me because in every scene Elsa was in Nazi uniform, her hair was in a ponytail, but her hair is down in the illustration.  It's clearly the poster's fault I didn't get it.

Good lord, i only got 12, and I was surprised I even knew a couple of those.

That's quite a lot to ask.  Let's not forget last year when half of PJ Harvey's set was ruined by background noise from Kanye West's set.  I love Kanye and all, but I love PJ about a million times more, and the idea of him interfering with her set was fucking infuriating.
