We may need Hollywood to produce more terrible Highlander films to fill out the scale.

Yes but the specificity of that comparison speaks volumes to those who get it. The Highlander scale might not be for everyone, but for those who get it, the nuances you can get across is incredible.

I can imagine the world now

in the future let’s rate all movies on a highlander scale 

Meh, He has an issue a lot of guys in Hollywood do. He has a big gorgeous head that looks to big for his body.

It’s a song about, as our Britt Hayes put it, “a woman being held hostage by some guy who may or may not have drugged her adult beverage.”

On point. The song is a time capsule of the way adults used to flirt. Within the context of the song there is no rapey vibe at all. People of that time probably just thought it was a cute way to demonstrate the playfulness of dating in a more reserved society.

Remember when hyperlinks were used to supplement the context of a sentence with the information it referenced, and not to completely contextualize an oblique reference?

What could be more timely than a June 2024 post resuscitating a niche cultural debate from 2015 about a 1949 Christmas song?

‘It’s a song about, as our Britt Hayes put it, “a woman being held hostage by some guy who may or may not have drugged her adult beverage.”’

This is satire, right?
