Just don't mention around here that you don't have a TV, or else you'll probably be murdered.

In 1983, Einstürzende Neubauten released their second album, Zeichnungen Des Patienten O.T., in which the band began to move more towards actual music and away from giving you a goddamned headache.

The Bugle is taking a break so I've been listening to the first few episodes. It's interesting to discover what's changed since then, and what's the same. Also I finally get what they mean when they say a section's going straight in the bin.

1 is a surprising number, I guess.

Okay, so what is the Japanese word for "blowhard"?

I'm just hoping it'll be revealed that Oren Kaplan is lying. The band's image will still be tarnished, but not as badly as if what he says about Eugene Hutz is true.

Colored vinyl is awesome.

NTSF is on at 12:15. 12:30 has a rerun of Newsreaders. Newsreaders is a cool show too.

Yeah, I think I got a lot of those books from either fairs or the school library.

I've been reading Full House Reviewed and it's pretty much convinced me that Full House is the worst show ever, at least among shows that lasted more than a season. I don't know if the Papouli episode was particularly controversial, because by that time every episode was shockingly terrible.

How about that episode of The Simpsons that angered certain people in Brazil who didn't understand animation?

This article was a lot longer than I expected and also a lot more interesting than I expected.

The first book was about how they were starving but then their grandfather came and saved them. They weren't starving at all in the following books.

Yeah, I read those too when I was a kid. I thought it was pretty weird how the children aged in the early books, but in the later books they were suddenly back to the ages they were in the first book.

I have no patience for rhythm guitar. It's like it makes things too safe. I think Pixies is the only band I regularly listen to that has the traditional lineup of lead-rhythm-bass-drums.

I want to watch something where Liev Schreiber answers people's questions, just to see what it's like.

That happened in 2011 though, and the camera was probably made a few years prior. I'm thinking about this way more than I should.

Your paragraph was a pure joy to scroll past.

The image on the front page leads one to believe this article is about Matthew Broderick. Whoever edited that image must not know who Marlon Brando was. (Chrome's spell check knows Brando but not Broderick. Hmm.) Actually it's probably meant to symbolize how Broderick was there (in the press) while Brando was not, but

I don't think this show needed to continue, but it's a lot better than it was before… which is not surprising since the new guys were replaced by an old pro. Still, it's not great.
