Personal Top Lists & Rankings

And then they’re all like, "How am I supposed to make that much money on a construction site?"... well, that’s kind of why you're working construction, genius...
I guess it bruised their egos just a little bit, poor things...
honestly, everyone's just obnoxious 🙂

Look, can we please stop overhyping "intellectual" careers? 😳 For the most part, they’re just deeply underpaid—and honestly, if I want to actually chase some serious money, I’ll probably end up on a construction site... because let's face it, I'm not an MIT grad, I'm not a marketing guy, I'm not a dentist, and I definitely don't have a background in trades. 😁

$67 I was pulling in more daily cash doing grueling physical labor 😎 than any other paychecks I've seen so far.

I guess you can get away with anything if you're as slick and cunning as the guys Hana goes for 🙂

Here comes a little midday sermon straight from Brooklyn.

Listen to me, son! You’ll find it much easier to scrape together enough cash for a car working construction than sitting in some cubicle at an IT firm. It’s the same story if you head down the wrong path—drugs, smuggling, all that—you might lose your sense of honest hard work, sure, but you'll have plenty of money for the nightlife and just enough scraps for the poor souls left behind. Besides, my boy, why bother worrying about a car or owning a house? You’ve got the United States to lean on... so just keep a smile on your face.

just bring back Kika🙂
even if they had to drag her back by those long blonde locks

Rick Lee said:But what about the Mars Volta diehards? 🙂 😁

As for Nirvana fans... uh, let's just say back then I was more dangerous than a guy on a watchlist.🙂 😳

Those people don't exist; they're just the leftovers from the old AT&T crazies.🙂

Heh, I'm just kidding...

Don't go watching any reality TV trash.😎

I mean, we totally overlooked the most alternative fanbase out there—RHCP

Oh, please.😲
Just wait until everyone starts singing along to Cabazon at the house parties.😱

paučko said:Man, honestly, the most exhausting die-hard fans out there have to be the Deadheads. 🙄

Deadheads? Well, you should probably reach out to Narančoid about that one. 😁 😁

...man! 😵

Sean Lee7 said:The absolute number one CD I’m perfectly fine losing forever.
Dizzee Rascal - Boy in da Corner

But hey, I managed to snag a Dinosaur Jr. album instead. Honestly, I think I definitely came out on top in that trade.

Wait, is this from that old buddy of yours—the one I keep asking you about, where you mentioned he owed you some messy cash or something?😉 😁

Hey everyone, I know these albums are considered absolute classics, but I just can't seem to wrap my head around them:

1. Lou Reed - Berlin (The songwriting feels pretty mediocre to me, and honestly, Brian Eno's production and those orchestral arrangements are a total nightmare) 😱
2. Ramones - End of the Century (It feels like Phil Spector got lost somewhere trying to implement that Wall of Sound; maybe he improved it a bit, but the material mostly sounds like a collection of fillers)
3. That second album by Peking Duck we were talking about earlier. I think Dr. Zelig already covered everything, except perhaps for that one idiot's idea to run a flanger/phaser effect over the hi-hat and just leave it running through the entire album. It reminds me of that old fable about the mouse and the hi-hat 🙂
4. Beach Boys - Pet Sounds. Looking at it from a bird's-eye view, the arrangements are legendary and the production is top-tier, blah blah blah—but if I actually pick out individual songs, I maybe like two or three of them
5. Paraff. I wouldn't go so far as to say it's bad; it's actually quite pleasant, but I just don't find it as good as everyone else does

I left out the artists I actively dislike because, well, a list like that wouldn't really make much sense, would it? 🙂

Nicholas Perez33 said:...seriously, man! 😵

I told you already: just go eat some ice cream! 😁 😁

Nicholas Perez33 said:2. Ramones - End of the Century (Phil Spector basically crashed into a Wall of Sound here; he tried to polish things up with that massive production style, but honestly, a lot of it just feels like filler tracks)

Yeah, I get that. End of the Century definitely hits a different note than the rest of the [😬] catalog, but there are some absolute gems on there... we're talking Chinese Rock, R'N'R High School, I'm Affected... personally, I think the whole thing holds up pretty well.🙂😬

A playlist for people who just can't stop apologizing:

1. REM – The Apologist
2. National – Baby We'll Be Fine
3. Sebadoh – Sorry
4. REM – So. Central Rain
5. Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds – Thirsty Dog

...I had to cut Husker Du's "Sorry Somehow" from the lineup—it just didn't quite fit the vibe conceptually.😬

My #1 tribute to my hometown:

Colored Program discography:

It's most important to stay healthy
That wall is standing crooked
I believe you because we're the same
And just 5 minutes ahead of you

With all luck, the General loves the kids
But if I'm no good, what happens then?
Is he even a man or just a machine?
🙏 👍 🙏 👍 🙏 👍

Man, that’s gross. Just sticky, puffed-up potato crap. It's like eating cotton candy with zero sugar.
