See, syc. I told you about that revelation where I understood I was totally out of the demographic?

Hmmm.

Best way to disarm one who attempts to fence is to take away his best weapon ...

See, I revealed one of those deep dark secrets that probably should have stayed dark and deep.

I went to the Lilith Faire.

Mostly voluntarily.

So sorry - bad me. No bias/slander intended. Just thought it was a widely known assumption - Lillith Faire = feminism = implied lesbianism - PLEASE forgive me for my stereotypical remark. I was at one of those points in my day where the poison darts fly out involuntarily.

AKA the dick cutter tour? that is what a group of us called it because our lovely brides all came back prepared to castrate us. strange phenomenon.

Thanks Lookout. I feel much less evil now.

I totally left you out of this conversation...no one told you that you had to open your mouth.

And I still have some weapons left.

System of A Down's Mesmerize.
This is just as good as Toxicity, and B.Y.O.B has meaningful lyrics, if you bother to look them up.
They scream about "Why don't presidents fight the war? why do we always send the poor?!" They mention oil, and sing that we are being "fed lies from the tablecloth". At that point, the song becomes poppy and happy and they sing "la la la, everybody's going to the party to have a real good time, dancing in the desert, blowing up the sunshine..la la la la la la la la la la."
I love their use of sarcasm, the fact that they sing about us being lied to and brainwashed, and "Cigaro" seems to be written from Bush's point of view:
"My cock is much bigger than yours" ..."We're the propagators of all genocide
Burning through the world's resources
Then we turn and hide "
The lyrics are meaningful and the music ROCKS!

Don't steal it- Buy it!!

I've been listening to Stevie Wonder mostly the past few days. The man is a genius.

Elspode · 06-10-2005, 03:59 PM

I'm *trying* to listen to Bob Dylan's "Blood on the Tracks", but my cheapass RCA unencumbered-by-any-features-mp3-player's output jack is toast.

I haven't been able to figure out a way to approach the Mrs. about needing something a little better...or at least actually functional.

elSicomoro · 06-10-2005, 04:03 PM

Oh, that's easy! Just tell Mrs. Ep that the gods have told you to buy an iPod...who are you to argue with them?

Unfortunately, Mrs. Ep is on her own wavelength with the Gods, and I'm afraid there are few divine arguments or recommendations that I could slide past her without her doing a bit of checking up on her own...

Bah, metalhead, headbanger, all the same. Just something so people know what I'm talking about.
