It's a consistantly funny episode, and achieves apotheosis at the point where Phil confesses to the camera that maybe his fear of clowns has something to do with when he was a child how he found the body of a dead clown.

I am forever thankful to Yaz for allowing this to come into creation (the song, not the video, which I only just discovered existed)… http://youtu.be/qgDKtLPp46s

Pre-"Nothing Compares 2 U" she was "that weird-looking bald chick in that World Party video" or "that weird-looking bald chick who sings that Mandinka song"

Later in the skit he calls he Cue Ball

I binged on them at some point and bought all their stuff used and then compiled my own best-of, which I still play and enjoy every so often… Fondly remembered songs that come immediately to to mind: Wuss, Sensitive Artist, I Wish, Jesus Was Way Cool, The Dishwasher

Hey, take it from one of the "Hey, I lived through it" Old-timers, Pretty Hate Machine had been out for a while before Broken… My friends and I loved PHM… It became the first "industrial" album to go gold, and genre purists were bashing NIN for being closer to Depeche Mode than Ministry or Skinny Puppy… And then

For, um, 'Best Metal Performance'… Still NIN was more "metal" than Jethro Tull.

Agreed… Some good shit on BOTH Hive Dweller albums actually (though the debut's more consistent)

Oh, and Bubs would DEFINITELY be the voice of The Wheelchair.

Just no more Strongbad first-basing it with The Ugly One

Possums…

The Cure's "Burn" > NIN's "Burn"

I expected the headline "Rob Zombie is directing a Groucho Marx biopic because of course he is"

So 'Women and Children first'… That's a Van Halen reference, right?

"Codex"… I mean, just… Wow!

Garbage's "#1 Crush" was from that album… Not released as a single, no video, no promo, but alt-rock & college radio played the hell out of it and it became one of their signature tunes. So, um, I guess it was Garbage's "Talk Show Host" then is what I'm saying.

Gatlinburg, where Sue and his father had that awful bar fight?

Hey, at least they used the weird turtle photo.

Okay then, what did it taste like to you?
