Shuttlecock XXVII: To Returned Cocks We Run!

[corianderstem]

I prefer the movie rehearsal version of Still Haven't Found over the version on the album. Love it, but yeah, I can only take a little bit of the gospel wailing.

Hey Mikal - I told my dad about the Lambeau rumor and told him to keep his ear to the ground to let me know if he hears anything. Not that he's some big honcho who hears and knows all, but hey.

U2 song title abbreviations make me want to jump off a bridge.

I almost posted something in response to Irvine's post last night referring to Crumbs as CFYT, as in "My U2 acronym rador isn't working tonight. Please explain."

They make my head hurt.

PITNOL

I don't visit the sections of the site where people refer to songs that way, so my brain just doesn't work that way. Albums are obvious, but it takes me 30 seconds per song title to figure out what the hell people are talking about. If there's no context, I have to do a search to figure out what it is.

PITNOL

wow, i was just about to post "please help me on this one."

and now i get it.

 

[BoMac]

I find that it's faster for me to write Hold Me Thrill Me Kiss Me Kill Me, for example, than it is to think about the appropriate acronym.

 

[mikal]

i hope Fiona Apple fans didn't use title abbreviations for that one album...you know....that really long title?

I don't visit that section of the site for a lot more reasons than just that...

PITNOL makes me laugh.

They're so easy to understand that there's a thread dedicated to deciphering the fucking things, like hieroglyphics or something.

I stick to one word titles, like "Streets" or some well-placed ellipses, ie: "I Still Haven't Found..."

I generally refuse to use shorthand abbreviations for anything. My text messages take forever to type out.

I'm the same way, as shocking as that may seem to some people.

 

[phillyfan26]

I am getting a new phone, though. One with a keyboard. Texting will be easier. It'll be tough to say goodbye to Ol' Reliable, though. WE HAD SO MANY TIMES TOGETHER!

 

[LMP]

I hit the 160-word limit on a regular basis nowadays. Pisses me off.

I may need a new phone, too. My Rumor's got some battle scars and the battery life is too spotty.

You? I never would've pegged you as a stickler for good grammar.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Yeah, BoMac, where is this coming from? I'm completely shocked by this...

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Somebody noticed this in the other place, look at the big sign someone is holding up in the lower right...

I'm not sure what the first part says but it looks like they were on to him in '92...

 

[phanan]

I can't make out the first part either, but that is brilliant.

I roll with a Razr. I've had it for two years, and it still works just as well as it did the first day. Except it has enough scars on it that it looks like I used it as a puck in a street hockey game.

I'm supposed to get an enV Touch to replace it. Which is nuts. I've never had expensive things before. I might even be able to access the Internet away from a computer, which is batshit insane.
