I got one of these on clearance at Big 5 last year and it’s pretty great. The only problem is everyone else in my area also bought one, so there will be a dozen of them staked out on the beach and it’s hard to tell which one is yours!

Oh god. If you’re only doing five songs, you’re missing Aaron Burr’s MOMENT in “Wait For It” and it’s probably the greatest song in the whole thing. I cannot just play it once, whenever it comes up I have to listen to it at least 3 times.
I wasn’t actually talking about the performers either, though. I’m talking about the musical’s structure.
I have been saying of Hamilton “It’s like 1776 and Jesus Christ Superstar had a baby.” (JCS is my favorite and I’m also a Daughter of the American Revolution so you can see why it’s caught me)
My husband loathes rap (and country, but that’s another story). But he sat down and listened to it with me and he even got teary-eyed. He was impressed despite the fact that he doesn’t like any of the “rappy parts”.
YAY I MAEK FRAND
I saw the 2009 White House performance Miranda did, where he does an early version of the musical’s opening number. When the musical finally came out, it took me months to realize that was the same guy doing the same thing. I thought it was funny - I didn’t take him seriously when he said he was writing a musical. The…
Or maybe we listened to the cast recording and really enjoyed it?
It’s not even about the rap. Plenty of the songs aren’t even rap or hip-hop. Sometimes they shift partway through, like “Satisfied” - Angelica only raps when she’s expressing her inner thoughts directly to the audience.
ooh goody, I have a date to get drunk and binge-watch season 1 and 2 with a girlfriend this weekend.
Yeah, my daughter violates the dress code pretty much constantly and she’s never once gotten in trouble for it. Because she weighs 95 lbs soaking wet and is barely a 32A.
Seriously, I used to work with this teacher that had VERY large breasts and she was asked to cover up (because parents are the WORST part of teaching). So the next day she came in a crew-neck shirt and they looked EVEN BIGGER. And she got more complaints about her “inappropriate attire”.
That’s total bullshit anyway, because a high-neck shirt often makes large breasts appear MORE prominent, not less.
“Too skinny” isn’t necessarily a humblebrag either. My daughter has a digestive disorder that makes it really REALLY hard for her to gain weight and she gets a lot of shit for her “too skinny” frame.
I grew up in Southern California. Same thing, everyone is “dude”.
Eliza Dushku with a maxi-pad tiara and tinfoil bra is like my favorite thing right now.
I live in Seattle. A sprinkler head like that on my lawn would definitely be suspicious, as it’d be the ONLY sprinkler head in my lawn.

I mean, yes, he is very sweet. But I also haven’t actually hung out with him since we were both in high school so now we’re just Facebook friends. Growing up in So Cal is weird like that. Tom went to a different high school than I did, but I went to school with “Skull” from the original Power Rangers, and also a…
So I actually did community theater with Tom about uh ... I’m not gonna say how long ago. He’s like 3 years younger than me. He’s been doing this on Facebook since the Met Gala and it’s hilarious.
I hope you don’t mind, but I’ve reproduced this comment on my friend’s blog, as she was just talking about this article.
