    MAMA MIA HERE I GO AGAIN
    STOP.

    I have two cousins who sing that song over and over again every time I see them.

    Wait, no, that's misleading. They just sing those six words.

    I think I'm missing something here, unless you're being facetious.

    I should listen to this, but I'm going to sleep soon and YouTube is slow.

    I'd figured, but referring to me as a minor threw me off for some reason.

    i don't know why i tend to put "my dear watson" on the end of that sentence

    Am i imagining it or has there been an increase in Sherlock Holmes references in the heap recently?

    Not that i'm complaining.
  • I really need to read Sherlock Holmes.

    After I read the Aeneid...

    and the Illiad...

    and the Odyssey...

    and War and Peace...

    You know, it's weird but I feel like this is a much more overwhelming goal than Discworld.

    Well, you know how certain Central Avenues can get obsessed with a particular work or franchise for a couple weeks, seemingly out of nowhere?

    Yeah.

    i know this feel.

    Don't be daunted by Sherlock Holmes, though; they're considerably lighter than the other things on that list, and the language is basically modern and no more difficult than Discworld.

    Yeah.

    Things are explained.

    The timing is interesting to me since i've been reading crime fiction lately.

  • How many more books do I have to read before I can consider myself Well Read?

    Read all the books!

    -Allie Brosh edit goes here-

    i feel guilty about not being well read.  i should be.
  • “I'm surprised. Those clothes… but, aren't you…?”
    I read mostly short horror/dark fantasy/surrealist fiction and the occasional smattering of postmodernist whimsy. In theory, I am well-read; in practice, I am pretty limited. Or maybe it's the other way around...

  • I kind of regret that when I was young enough that songs by Aaliyah etc. were still on the radio I didn't listen to them. 

    I actually kinda hated music in general until 7th grade or so.

    OK song, but there is much better on that album. "Airbag", in particular, is basically the quintessential Radiohead single, and "The Tourist" is just beautiful.

  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i didn't really get into music until i was like 14 or 15, and then it was mostly limited to classic rock and the odd hip hop track.

    When i was a kid i disliked most music, which i think was mainly resentment because other people liked it and expected me to know what it was.

    i like Exit Music.

    Radiohead were my favourite band for a while, during which i thought that entire album was basically perfect.

    I sometimes feel like that about my music listening. I have certain artists that I know an inordinate amount about, but I sometimes feel like my greater genre knowledge is lacking.

    Exception: Post-punk. I think that I am basically a human post-punk encyclopaedia now.

    I want to get a screenshot of this parking lot to draw over, but it's too big to fit on my screen at once at the highest zoom level.

    Anybody got any ideas?
  • So it turns out that Netflix's collection of classic Doctor Who episodes is painfully limited. Anyone know of another legal way I could watch them?

    I had to format my PS3....so that means all of my games I've downloaded off the Playstation Store are gone....
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i wish there was something i could claim an encyclopaedic knowledge of.

    i am kind of a broken record about this i realize.

    Unfortunately, Doctor Who on DVD is expensive, and the iirc the Region 1 selection is much more limited than the Region 2 selection.  i'm not sure what options there are for US fans.

    Radiohead were my favourite band for a while.
    "Exit Music" is nice.

    As affected as this sounds, I honestly like a lot of the stuff that Radiohead did after OK Computer much better than I like that album. Hail to the Thief, in particular, is really underrated.

    That said, "Planet Telex" is probably my favourite Radiohead track in spite of The Bends as a whole being horribly inconsistent. The chords in the verse just feel epic (in the real sense), and Thom Yorke's weird drunken snarl is just perfect.

  • The sadness will last forever.
    I'm not sure yet...since my PS3 is currently downloading update data.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    Agreed about Hail to the Thief.

    It's actually a while since i listened to one of their albums through.  The Bends used to actually be my favourite, but i used to be a lot more into rock music than i am now.

    I find your endless lexicon of miscellanea to be far more orderly than mine and probably more comprehensive to whit. I admire that.

    But yes, I know that feeling. Nothing I know is really applicable outside of very limited situations.

    Replace "post-punk" with "1990s alternative", and I pretty much feel the same way.
