Springsteen on the cover of Darkness on the Edge of Town would be a no-brainer for hottest anyone has ever looked if not for his t-shirt being pre-cut at the top of that v-neck.

who are they?!?

-Civil War dead were thrown bareback into the dirt. No coffins (later plot points show why they did that).
-Mostly, especially around Fredericksburg in 1862, Civil
War forts weren’t a thing. If they were, the forts were earthworks.
-Most Confederate soldiers were way too old

I miss when this app was a plucky, weird, kinda fun twitter alternative instead of just a steady stream of information that makes you want to walk as far as you can into the nearest ocean.

Nothing Compares 2 U is a super hollow gesture. Lorne didn’t ban the song. He banned the person. And they died a pariah.

ChiveTV segment on dogs doing funny/cute things almost making me tear up at a damn Texas Roadhouse means it’s just about time to go home.

“You know, they really should be called pushboats.”

This also isn’t speculation. Apparently the drunkest guy here is the owner (a fact that can honestly go either way as a litmus test of success) but there is open discussion of whether they should even bother to purchase more receipt tape.

Lord cure me of the affliction wherein I walk into a bar that is, two steps in, clearly failing (amidst positive online reviews) and, instead of walking away, I order food and tip 50% because I know these people will be out of a job in 6 months.

It’s also a pretty good band from Richmond, VA

Didn’t expect to say this at the start of the season, but let’s go for that 3-peat!

Fuck. The. Birds. That’s some dirty shit.

One of my favorite books… finally read it about a year ago.

Things you send to your anxious partner when you’re traveling for work

The EPA guy from Ghostbusters looked a lot like the guy from Spoon when he was young.

Any barber who turns off their clippers to finish a thought should immediately lose their license (and probably go to jail)

I had a sore throat in late November that sounds kind of like that. Cold/flu symptoms as well, but sore throat was maybe worse I ever had. Never tested positive for COVID. Finally went to a doc, got tested for strep (was negative). Doc just kind of shrugged and wished me the best.

Myrtle Beach?

Right as they were starting to get good! smdh

I don’t hate Thurston because he cheated on Kim. I hate Thurston because cheating on Kim ended Sonic Youth.

Frosty the Snowman is fundamentally flawed because he never completes The Hero’s Journey

Wonderful Christmastime haters genuinely give me “the ick.”

More or less right, except nothing on Daydream Nation tops In Bloom

"So where are you from?"

"I'm from a place where we don't end sentences with prepositions."

*pause*

"So where are you from, asshole?"

Hate it when the convention center is a Pepsi house
