I hear ya @SubwayJustice:disqus . I feel bad anytime I'm dismissive even of the albums that aren't my favorite. It's like complaining about the person you love and have been married to for decades — maybe those complaints are valid but it doesn't paint the overall picture.

And all of the songs about being physically crippled (My Man, Destination Moon, Montana), emotionally crippled (Til My Head Falls Off, No One Knows My Plan, Whistling in the Dark, Can't Keep Johnny Down), and/or addiction & dependence (Renew my Prescription, Spiraling Shape, about forty others), and/or brutal breakups

"Don't call me at work again oh no / the boss still hates me I'm just tired, and I don't love you anymore / and there's a restaurant we should check out where the other nightmare people like to go / I mean nice people / Baby wait, I didn't mean to say 'nightmare'."

The new album is really good. Like the best and most cohesive album since Factory Showroom? I've liked a lot of the stuff in-between — the low points on Spine notwithstanding (but even that album gave us Wearing a Raincoat). But this feels like a really great head trip of an album.

As an unabashed Bard fan as well, I do think he'd approve. I mean he basically titled one of his plays "why's everyone so worried about the vaginas, eh?" He probably made lots of butt jokes about Coriolanus, too.

There's something about that horse, Twighlight Sparkle, it's like we looked at each other, and there was eye contact, and I was looking at the horse, and the horse was looking at me, and it hit me, I think, maybe, I was a centaur in a past life.

"Remember kids — if you're worried it's not working and maybe you should take more, wait 30 minutes first. And if you can't tell if it's been 30 minutes or not, then you don't need more."

@avclub-517d97b17c77bf9ad730910ce9d5ef69:disqus I know. WLIIA? was my Rushmore too.

But it's too late — I've seen everything.
