Probably not the most popular opinion, but how about not do this all and leave the books the fuck alone?

I don’t care what anyone says, the Nutella you get in Germany tastes different and better than the type we get in the US. I always come back from trips with this love affair with Nutella and buy a jar at my local Safeway, and end up being disappointed.

Certainly not bad pop music.

Not if your office mate gets it as an earworm and sings or whistles it constantly during a 8 hour work day. I told him if he continued we’d make the “News of the Weird” with the headline “Woman strangles co-worker for singing insipid song from the 1980s”

The songs from that version are wonderful—by Jules Styne and Bob Merrill, both who had Broadway credits to their names. Its also a must see in the “Carol-a-thon” along with the English musical “Scrooge” with Albert Finney.

We have holiday tradition in which we take a weekend in December and binge watch every version of the Christmas Carol we can get our hands on. The Muppet version is up there on the overall list—pretty faithful to the three ghosts (for some reason the ghost of Christmas past always gets changed in some versions) and…

Right before you press that “purchase” button on the website for a Morrissey concert ticket, Clint Eastwood should appear and pronounce...

I really hope Lady Bird is still playing when my daughter comes back from the East Coast to CA for Christmas. If ever a movie stole lines (at least from the promo) from our parent-child relationship when my daughter was in her teens, this one hits the mark.

I have to concur, the Young Ones had some great live performances—and damn, I miss Lemmy :(

I have a few that came out of the SNL performances—Devo is definitely up there in the top three. I remember watching that with some friends and having my tastes in musical change overnight. Its still my favorite version of that song bear none. The other performance was Bowie singing “The Man Who Sold the World”…

I’d rather have some Bisgetti.

Being held down and having something injected into me. I have a fear of needles ( medical non tattoo ones ), to the point that I once passed out during a blood draw. We recently watched “Touch of Evil” and the whole drugging scene of Suzy freaked me out to no end.

Why? The original was funny as hell and was full of so many vampire tropes that it was easily portable to US audiences. ( I will say I did see this with my youngest child and we probably laughed harder than most in the audience, so maybe I’ve misjudged US audiences).

Personally, I think he’s one of the immortals, like Keith Richards. Un-killable.

I grew up in a family with six kids that crossed three decades of teenage life: among the few musical artists that seemed to cross sibling generations was Fats Domino. When I was learning to play bass, one of the first bass lines I learned was Mr. D’s “Mardi Gras in New Orleans”. It’s still up there in my list of…

Oooh, Trilogy of Terror and Amelia. Scared the shit out of us teens during a sleepover. Those were innocent times, 1975. My mom was not pleased when we stayed up the entire night because we were all afraid to go to sleep.

Will there be EXPLOSIONS??

I blame Miami Ink and all those related shows. They’ve pushed the idea that body art needs to “mean” something.

TBH, if you listen to enough western mode music, there aren’t that many forms and mash ups, and sometimes outright copyright issues are pretty easy to achieve if you’ve got any sort of ear for chord progressions. With that said, this is still my favorite mashup:

As someone with a decent amount of ink, I am going to smack the next person who asks me “WHAT DO THEY ALL MEAN”!!!
