TomWaits- Yes. Radiohead: Proving that people don't suck since 1997.
Kid A>In Rainbows>Amnesiac>Hail to the Thief>Ok Computer>Pablo Honey
I'm a Radiohead fanatic, but I don't really care for the bends, and to a (much) lesser extent OK computer either. Kid A on though is solid fucking gold.
I know exactly what you mean, and I'm the same way.
Man, 13 year old Snape was not prepared for that game. Thank god for the kid everyone (hopefully) had in their life who's parents just didn't give a shit.
I should clarify. Not everyone that says it changes their life is a liar, but they may well be blowhards.
A list
I think this idea of wanting to experience things for the first time again mostly applies to music for me. Mostly because you can't reread or rewatch anything to the extent that you can with music. So a short list of music:
LSD is always hyped up to be this mind-blowing, life-changing *event* and it's totally not. I hate talking about trips or tripping, but if I had to describe it I'd say it's exactly the same as sobriety, except different. It didn't fundamentally change the way I perceive things at all, and pretty much everyone I know…

It'd be nice to see it fresh, and be surprised again. Maybe I just won't watch it for a few years (right), or I could buy a motorcycle and start…
I'm almost glad I wasn't watching The Wire as it was first being played on HBO. The only real way to do it is to be late to the party, be blown the fuck away and then watch as much as fast as you possibly can. I'm not a strong enough person to wait a week between each episode.
I've shown my copy of Kane to a few people that were curious, and their inevitable reaction has always been "really? This is the best movie ever made?"

They know their market. Where do you fit into the holy trinity of marketing: college students, the morbidly obese, and homosexuals?
I laughed at "I'm looking for a locksmith"
To mix it up a little: Since your an ass, I'm going to sacrifice a lamb in the hope that Priapus skull fucks you
And I have no idea how he kept it hidden, especially from me, the one other smoker in the family. And when I told my little sisters, they had apparently known for years,
My dad smokes, and I didn't find this out until I was 18
I believe in australia they put pictures on the packs. Gross pictures. Of teeth (or lack thereof) and lungs and shit.
