Personal Top Lists & Rankings

ruggedcrane22 said:For someone to actually catch my eye, they’d need to:
-be a hardcore leftist
-believe in Buddha, Rastafarianism, and still show up for Sunday Mass
-rank Giant Steps and Black Saint & Sinner Lady as their top albums
-have a degree in German Studies
-know how to play at least some bass

Looks like you've really messed up in life. 😁

Here’s the absolute baseline for when a girl actually catches my eye:

1. She can't be a smoker. Period.😈

2. Having killer taste in music.
3. Being funny and actually having some brains.
4. A little bit of baggage—you know, being slightly messed up.

Man, that's the dream girl right there.🙂

Sean Lee7 said:I've come to the conclusion that you’ve completely screwed yourself over in life. 😁

Well, that's assuming I ignore my own Zen and just don't give a damn. (which she'll surely love reading when this pops up😁 )

Timothy Jones85 said:The absolute baseline requirements for a woman to even catch my eye:

1. Absolutely zero smoking.😈

3. Needs to be witty and well-educated.
4. A little bit broken inside.

Now, that’s a dream girl right there.🙂

I'm missing one leg or a wing myself.😁

Timothy Jones85 said:The 4th bit is kind of messed up...

Oh, for sure, you absolutely can't get by without it.
But honestly, I feel like we only actually start getting smart about this stuff as we get older... or maybe we just don't. 🙄 😁

What I was really getting at there was the whole headache of trying to make a choice, obviously...😬

My top 3 picks for the best Beatles covers/reworkings:

1. Roy Orbison - Help!
2. A local rock band from the Mississippi area - Help!
3. Residents - A Day in the Life

Look, every single chicken comes with two drumsticks and two wings—for crying out loud... I'm not Paul McCartney, I can't just conjure parts out of thin air.😲

The real trick isn't the anatomy, it's finding one that doesn't squawk all night long😎—if you find that, you've hit the jackpot.😁

Mr. Wrong said:The best music genres for a girl to listen to if she wants to be interesting to me:

5. Goth (as long as there isn't any pathetic drama)
4. Harsh noise (as long as she's sweet)
3. Techno (as long as she doesn't do drugs)
2. Rap (as long as it isn't that weak stuff)
1. Power pop-punk like Stiff Little Fingers, Neurotic Outsiders, or Exploding Hearts

What kind of requirements are those? A goth girl without the dramatic outbursts!!!😁
Techno, but she doesn't do drugs?!
You're being quite naive, 😁
Though "sweet" could describe someone who likes The Primitives or Transvision Vamp, for instance.

stormyviper11 said:For someone to actually interest me, they must meet certain criteria:

1. Be female.
2. Waste their time on things like makeup, hair, and other trivial nonsense, while having zero interest in music, literature, or comics.
3. Not be overly gifted at intelligent conversation, yet not be completely dim-witted either.

Clarifications for points 2 and 3 (point 1 is self-explanatory, I assume):
If she shares my interests, I will want to talk to her, and we will become friends. Period.
If she has different interests but possesses a strong personality, we will argue, and then we will either become friends or freeze each other out. Period.
Therefore, I am left only with those who have no interests, and even among them, there is a split:
If she is capable of intelligent communication, I will want to talk to her and forget everything else. Period.
If she cannot communicate intelligently, she will be boring and uninteresting, and I will have no desire to spend any time with her. Another period.
Thus, I am searching for a fragile balance, something in between—a creature rarer than a snow leopard in the Rockies or some freak from the Everglades.

When you combine these views with my own social presence, you get the expected state of my sex life. Period. 🙂

I think there is exactly one such person. Once you hit the first tributary on the left after reaching Manhattan....

stormyviper11 said:My top three covers of tracks by The Beatles:

1. Roy Orbison - Help!
2. Mississippi Rockers - Help!
3. Residents - A Day in the Life

And how about these?

Peter Sellers & Spike Milligan - She Loves You (with an Irish accent)
William Shatner - Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
Marcia Griffiths - Don't Let Me Down (the reggae version)

The ultimate top three exotic travel destinations, according to the legends of pop music:

1. Bangkok (as suggested by Alex Chilton, who also pointed the way toward Indonesia)
2. Shanghai (reminiscent of Manhattan)
3. Mexico (in the style of Frank Sinatra)

You Shook Me All Night Long - AC/DC
hard - Cosmic Psychos
I don't want to turn into a beast - Rockin' Rebels

The three most unlikable rock 'n' roll countries in Europe

1. Austria
2. Switzerland
3. The North America

🙏 🙏 🙏

Ice cold beer—and a pretty sluggish version of Let It Be. 👍

lonebison37 said:Yeah, honestly—you just can't function without it.

I'm with you there. I guess I have a thing for messy people—not the obvious kind, though, but the ones where you don't realize how complicated they are until much later. Just my luck, I suppose.😁

gentlepuma20 said:I actually love difficult people. Not the obvious ones, though—it's the ones where you don't realize who they really are until much later. Delicious... 😁

What did N/A do to you to make you hold such a public grudge?

David Sullivan4 said:What did N/A ever do to you that makes you feel the need to drag them through the mud like this in public?

Oh, so she wears skirts in public now? I bet she’s out there rocking some mohair sweater too—and we all know THAT is strictly off-limits!!! Look, there are rules. You don't mess with a woman's man, her shoes, or her knitwear. Period.

Hey coastalpanther11, good point. Aside from that bit about West—I honestly have no clue what moher means 😬

But who even decided that N/A was messed up? (It isn't), or that it was an insult? (It really isn't).

Ponor said:Look, coastalpanther11, you hit the nail on the head. Except for that bit about the news. Because honestly, I have zero clue what a "mohair" even is. 😬

Just go watch the movie "Ed Wood." It’ll clear everything right up for you.

Glenn or Glenda? Narantxa or Coca-Cola?

Yeah, Narantxa is cool and all, but now you're actually starting to worry me. You don't know what mohair is, and you aren't even stopping by N. P. zapitati to figure out where this is all heading...
