Weren't you the one fulminating about people who make YouTube video reviews being nerds a little while ago? Just saying.

Nah, not the same class of nerd. Theyre just dorks who need their cameras taken away, or kids whose parents give them too much money for an allowance. Although I was surprised to find out at that convention that my friend and I are by comparrison hardly nerds at all. I've never even owned a magic card, and I had no idea people still bought them.

 

[Moonlit_Angel]

Sorry to hear that, joyfulgirl. Glad that you and the car escaped mostly unscathed, though I hope you can get the whiplash sorted out quickly.

 

[u2popmofo]

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, nerdy Star Wars stuff, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, nerdy fantasy stuff, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, I hate everything, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, I'm a hippie liar.

What are some song titles that you really love, regardless of what the song actually sounds like? I'm so nerdy that sometimes I really really like song titles.

I Understand What You Want But I Just Don't Agree

 

[u2popmofo]

What are some song titles that you really love, regardless of what the song actually sounds like?

Atom & His Package song titles immediately come to mind, because they're humorous on their own right. Some of my favs, title wise:

-Dear Atom, You Do Not Want Children. Love, Atom
-If You Own The Washington Redskins, You're A Cock
-Mission 1: Avoid Job Working With Assholes
-Does Anyone Else In This Room Want To Marry His Or Her Own Grandmother?
-I'm Downright Amazed (At What I Can Destroy With Just A Hammer)
-(Lord Its Hard To Be Happy When You're Not) Using The Metric System
-Pumping Iron For Enya
-The Palestinians Are Not The Same Thing As The Rebel Alliance, Jackass

 

[corianderstem]

Mamas, Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys

-Pumping Iron For Enya
-The Palestinians Are Not The Same Thing As The Rebel Alliance, Jackass

 

[cobl04]

Pumping Iron For Enya is awesome.

Talkin Bout The Smiling Deathporn Immortality Blues is a great one.

 

[bollox]

Mogwai have great song titles

Kids will be Skeletons
I'm Jim Morrison, I'm Dead
I Love You, I'm going to Blow Up your School
You're Lionel Richie

[u2popmofo]

I'm Jim Morrison, I'm Dead

I have a shirt I bought at one of their shows with this title written under a picture of Jim Morrisson's face.

And don't forget the beautifully titled Mogwai b-side, 'Stupid Prick Gets Chased By the Police and Loses His Slut Girlfriend'.

Spoiler

It was a track they wrote as a part of a soundtrack to a movie that decided to not use any of their work, so they titled the song as a summary of what they thought the movie was about.

Ha ha, I was trying to remember this title, all I could recall was the slut girlfriend part. Did not know the origin, that's awesome.

 

[cobl04]

Anal Cunt had some pretty hilarious, if incredibly offensive (to some) titles...

 

[u2popmofo]

Ha ha, I was trying to remember this title, all I could recall was the slut girlfriend part. Did not know the origin, that's awesome.

I just read that they originally wanted to call it, "Lynn Fainchtein owes Mogwai $25000", but assumed they'd get sued.

 

[Jive Turkey]

Maybe so, but I've heard that you wear these 5 to 6 days a week.

Since it's waterproof I can just rinse it clean in the sink!

[Danny Boy]

Well that took me a minute to figure out.

 

[cobl04]

[IWasBored]

* SPOILER *

How is anchors a post 9/11 album? Other than it came out in 2003, they didnt jump on the political bandwagon til the gold record.

 

[bono_212]

Well that took me a minute to figure out.

I'm still lost

 

[cobl04]

I'm still lost

I'm assuming he's insinuating she's in denial

 

[Reggo]

It ain't just a a defense mechanism postulated by Sigmund Freud, in which a person is faced with a fact that is too uncomfortable to accept and rejects it instead, insisting that it is not true despite what may be overwhelming evidence.

Or a river in Egypt. Whatever.

 

[Reggo]

I'm assuming he's insinuating she's in denial

OH SURE COBBLER, RUlN THE JOKE.

Just kidding, Pappy.
