One time on tour I ended up at an afterparty for the LA roller derby scene.  Lots of women taking their clothes off and waggling their bits in the faces of other women.  It was unexpected.

Nothing!  My wife loves PDA.  Shaming PDA is some WASPy BS.

Toxic heteroromanticism?

I went to a BBQ recently and asked if they had any fizzy water. They gave me one of these and I had a few sips before I realized it was boozy fizzy water.  Turns out it was the only kind of fizzy water at the party.

There’s way more similarity here than either Blurred Lines or Dark Horse - chord progression, melody & rhythm are identical - but it is also extremely generic and also unlikely that Lady Gaga heard this song.

“sorority” or “fraternity” would be changed to “collegiate Greek system residence,” 

That seems a bit like throwing the child under 18 months old out with the remaining liquid from the human-sized hygiene bowl after the cessation of sentient biped cleansing.

That’s a pretty tame rider.  No light or sound pollution, a reasonable humidity level, work surfaces, power outlets, accessible kitchen.  Sounds like Madonna is all business.

I used to spend months away from home as a touring musician and my SO most definitely did not like that at all.  Every time I came back it required a weeks-long re-entry period and it would have killed the relationship entirely.  Since I stopped, everything has been much better.  We never run out of things to talk…

I got a very M Night vibe from that trailer.  Also: James McAvoy.

I saw something similar years ago.  I was relaxing in a hot tub on a ranch in New Mexico, looking at the night sky, when I noticed the tiniest white light - it looked like a star or satellite - moving in erratic ways.  Zooming left, then up, then diagonally.  There was no way to tell how far away it was and it was…

The songs - excepting Patricia’s closing song - were the weakest part of this episode for me.  They felt like generic musical theater.  I liked Patricia’s arc, though.

Glad to see “Rain Dance” getting used again, though this song kind of feels like a copy of a copy.

I had finally come around to liking Hannah Beast and while I’m not surprised that he sent her home - mostly because there was no footage of him making out with her in a mud bath - I do think he is a numbskull who is making almost every wrong decision one could make in that scenario, specifically not listening to the…

More like Juliette Lewis (Cape Fear, Natural Born Killers, From Dusk Till Dawn).

Intervals are the only way I can stand being on a treadmill.  Otherwise it is way too boring.  If this means that treadmills will have programmable interval programs, that’s great news, because depending on the model it can be really cumbersome to keep changing the speed manually.

“Spotify does not treat music like art, but as a universally noncontroversial product that can be neatly organized by genre, sound, or situation. To them, they may as well be organizing Skittles into colorful piles.”

That’s just the music business.  Music has been and always will be nothing but a commodity product to…

I’m biased since I went to HS with Chris.  He was very popular but really, really friendly and just all-around decent.  I think he should be on the list.

My wife and I improvised a dance routine to “The Middle” at my mom’s Long Island cul-de-sac block party, emceed by a 70-year-old man who called himself “DJ Brooklyn.” Everybody thought we had planned out the choreography, mostly because I made a whipping motion before the second chorus.  It was amazing.

Will you be able to have a meatball and lingonberry lunch at this new location?  Because that’s the real value of Ikea.

I thought you were describing what the trailer should have been, because there was no way any of that was going to actually happen in the trailer.  But wow!  It did.  WHAT.  JUST.  HAPPENED.
