Garlic

yum😍

dmj said:Hmmmm... nobody mentioned the whole family of scents that totally blow everything else out of the water: oil, gasoline, heating oil...

GASOLINE🙏
man, you have no idea how much easier it makes cleaning the windshield at the Shell station😁

dmj said:Let me throw in a scent that has absolutely nothing to do with cars: sherry with lemon mixed in.

sherry with rum mixed in. from this very specific orange metal pot. hand-beaten with some kind of wooden pestle by my grandma... 😘 who can't really do anything with her hands anymore.

another random smell:
the smell of (my) freshly aired out or just straight up sleepy and groggy dog

How on earth could I have forgotten this absolute, untouchable classic:
Xenia - my best friend
🥳
my best friend
she is just so gorgeous
my best friend
she is just so gorgeous
I am so incredibly proud
she is just so gorgeous
I am so incredibly proud
men can't help but turn their heads when she walks by
I am so incredibly proud
men can't help but turn their heads
for my best friend
men are turning their heads

men want to lay their hands on her
men want to hide her away
from me
men want to dream about her
men want to sleep with her
without me being there

khm.🙄

Ugh, I totally missed that! My internet connection is basically prehistoric—I’m stuck on this ancient dial-up setup where images take forever to load, so honestly, I don't even have the patience to sit there waiting for them to pop up... I just skip straight to reading the text. 😬
But hey, that's not even the point here, what really matters is the connection to Joy Division and the sheer genius of The Beatles

Ugh, finally, you actually remembered how the law works...😎

Top 3 heavy-hitting, soul-crushing American comfort foods:
1. cornbread and grits
2. coleslaw and cabbage stew
3. slow-cooked brisket

stormyviper11 said:They really weren't. After they played Zarjavel, they just finished up with those trumpets, packed their gear, and bailed—no encore, no Hallelujah... 😕

The setlist was honestly just bizarre. I mean, they blew me away with Prosim pazi da mi ne pohodi podočnjakov (even if Milanov’s solo was total garbage—honestly, nobody else could pull that off except Ota) and Za šizofrenike (I was going absolutely wild during that one, though it felt like I was the only person in the entire venue who actually knew the lyrics...)—but basically, after those first few tracks, I was left feeling pretty annoyed, just hoping against hope that I might finally get to hear Lipa or Pajac live... But nothing. Absolutely zilch.

Am I totally off base here, or is there still major tension between them? They barely even spoke to each other, and considering how short the whole thing was and the lack of an encore, I walked away with this heavy impression that they couldn't wait to get away from one another. And they didn't even hang out afterward, if you ask me (unlike us in the crowd, I'm still feeling a bit hungover this morning). Tiha voda was fantastic, and a couple of other songs were good too, but compared to the legendary standards they used to set, this concert wasn't even particularly great...

And there we go, back to being brutally honest again.

By the way, since we're talking about reunions of former superstars, Sanja went on record saying the new fossils are getting back together because "their children have a right to know what their parents did with their lives all along," which is such a textbook example of a terrible excuse.

Let's be real: they're all doing this for the paycheck, plain and simple.

a 🙂?
😁

Honestly, I’ve felt this way since my very first trips out to Hobbiton. It’s always the exact same pattern, just over and over again, and it always ends up being a total disaster in North Mexico... 🙄 😁

🤣
this whole forum has turned into a complete freaking circus 😍

Hugh 'n' Pepper said:you can shove just about anything up there....

honestly, I’ve had both the local cops and the guys from over the border hassling me at the state line more times than I care to count. they were always trying to shove something into my car 👎
they have these ridiculous little probes to check if I’ve accidentally filled up on heating oil or something stupid like that. then they grab my ID—which shows I was still practically a kid when I got it, so I look all innocent and wide-eyed—and they compare it to my actual face, and I guess I just look suspicious enough for them to mess with me... 🙄 😁

oh, and right, here are my top 5 eye-rolling moments you see at a rock club, for example:
1. when the crowd loses their minds over Dick Dale and that track from Pulp Fiction 🙄 and starts dancing around like Trav... ugh, I can't even deal. such a freaking cliché.
2. when everyone goes nuts for "I Will Survive." the girls always try to take center stage, and honestly, I kind of want to murder them when they get that specific facial expression while belting out those lyrics
3. when the crowd loses it over Passenger 🙄
4. when people freak out over Maljčik 🙄
5. when everybody starts vibing to Life is Life 🙄
5. when nobody actually reacts to Groove is in the Heart 🙄

dmj said:Has anyone else ever nominated Group 777 - If You Need a Friend?
I’m going to bed...

Wait, you have to sing it first 😁
No, seriously though, how does the chorus go again?
I seem to remember Josephine was singing in 777—and let me tell you, she was a total Lollobrigida type😁—plus "Lily, my white one" and "mamama-mamamariamama" are the only lyrics sticking in my head, even though there were plenty of others back then...

hmmmm

and I was just sipping on it...😁

Ugh, I knew something felt fishy about this Hugh guy from the start... remember when you actually reached out to me back in the day asking if I was ever going to part with that car? Seriously.
Of course I'm not selling it. ☕
😁

By the way, my grandad always says that with a BMW Isetta, you basically don't even need to know a mechanic because it's so simple 😁

Just wait until it breaks down on the side of the highway, then we'll see how much I'm bragging about this thing

Hugh said:Look, maybe it isn't the prettiest thing on the road, but you can't kill it, and it's one of a kind... an old VW!🙏

Preach!!!!11
And if it’s a diesel? Man, it's basically a tank.
Just tough, solid, indestructible, loud, and never quits...🙂 😁 😁

oktopod said:That’s just plain wrong. After years of that Zadar and Šibenik crowd running everything, San Francisco finally grabbed the crown this year.

Oh please, they’re constantly throwing massive parties out there anyway... and let's not even get started on Carmel-by-the-Sea, that tiny little town that's basically been a total drug den for years now.

jimmy jazz said:it’s like when those guys get absolutely trashed on cheap whiskey and start seeing ghosts... now they're all just stuck in their own heads and can't see anything else anymore...

I think he's actually onto something here.🙄 🙄

Oh, come on, I totally get what you’re saying on an abstract level, but I really want to know the specifics... like, what was old Miami actually like? What were those festive Splitters even about? That’s where the real soul is. If explaining it is too much of a drag for you, then just skip 😬

Carol Jackson45 said:She’s got that old-school Miami grit in her, which honestly feels like a dying breed these days... but I guess it makes sense, considering she’s Tom's sister.😉>

aaaa, instant points for that.🙂
But seriously, a buddy of mine from St. Louis was saying the exact same thing about that "old-school Miami spirit." Like, what does that even actually mean?

Oh, and by the way, the Multipla is hands down the ugliest car ever designed...
The Mk2 Golf is the absolute king.🙏 😁

banderas said:No offense intended, but honestly, this is one of the most ridiculous reasons I’ve ever heard for skipping a concert. I don't give a damn if they aren't being "authentic" or whatever—I just want to hear the music live, and if you want a deep psychological analysis, go talk to a therapist...😁

I don't know about you, but to me, that’s exactly what matters most when the lyrics are the whole point of the song. There is just no way in hell Oliver can belt out Tina's songs without it feeling totally fake. It sounds absolutely terrible, like it's just low-rent and routine, even if every single note is technically perfect.😠
I want raw emotion, I want the music and those incredible lyrics to actually hit me somewhere deep, and I want to feel like it's being performed from the heart. You can tell when it's real!

I just really hope they’re being genuine about everything they’re doing right now...
Honestly, I always end up getting all choked up listening to "Wait For Me." And "I've Got You." Man, Predin... 😳
I’ve never actually made it to one of their shows. Maybe it’s finally time🙂
