Purple Snow really is chock full of good-to-great proto-Prince music… "Should I Or Should I Not" by Sue Ann Carwell is downright infectious.

Why couldn't they have gotten John Hamm as the voice of the toilet?

I have YouTube'd the final scene in 'Archie Alone' several times… haven't made it through once without tearing up.

Only lived in Tucson for like 6 months, but I enjoyed the vibe, the people were nice, and it seemed like it was an oasis of liberal democrats. And it's absolutely true that the triple-digit temperatures were surprisingly tolerable because of the lack of humidity.

"We brought dinner" was priceless!

Love his music… Deserves way more acclaim and fame… Alt-music fans mostly only know him as the guitarist on Morrissey's "Suedehead"

Yes, this!

Frida knows there's something going on with Phil.

"This sausage is probably eighteen years old… This sausage could vote. It could go to war and die for its country."

Melissa: Coach McGuirk, I was just wondering how come they cancelled the game after ten minutes?
Coach McGuirk: Well, because we were losing by 20 goals, Melissa. It's called the Slaughter Rule. You know, Melissa, if we

Mr. Lynch: The question was "Who wrote Hamlet?" You wrote "The Pope's cousin, Count Pope-ula, a magical monster with pencils for arms"….
Brendon: I'll be honest, Mr. Lynch. I made that one up.

He has hits? ;-)

My friends and I *loved* "Don't Mug Yourself" at the time… "Why should she be the one who decides whether it's off or on, or on or off, or on?" We used to bust a gut laughing… And of course it has one of the greatest song endings of all time: "She must have crab, and fuckin' shrimp in her teef"

Apologies if this has been already posted, but re: the Avril/Rubinoos "Girlfriend" similarities… It was UK shoegazers Lush's 1994 rather Brit-poppy cover of the Rubinoos' song that Avril was perhaps appropriating (title and chorus changed to "I Wanna Be Your Girlfiend")… I played them back-to-back for my wife a few
