So this is Skrillex.

Now all the jokes make so much sense.

Oh, is that what dubstep is?? Eeeeew.

 

[Alisaura]

Why do people think he's funny? He's a fucking idiot.

I DON'T KNOW. I was wondering if younger people would understand and I was just too old to get it, but apparently this isn't the case. I remain baffled.

I really should find something else to listen to when I wake up, I'm sure this isn't good for my blood pressure.

 

[Alisaura]

Also, did they announce earlier that Tom & Alex are going to be hosting some of this later? Luuuucky us.

Man, that Drapht/Skrillex double-hit made me hate so many people.

Yeah, traditionally the breakfast hosts get to host the last 10 or 20 tracks. SIGH. Mind you, we can probably all guess what they're going to be.

I hate Skrillex. I am baffled by anyone who voted for it, but they should probably be the ones getting deported.

 

[Axver]

This Arnold song is pretty dumb.

 

[Axver]

Haha, just discovered that the guy behind this Arnold song, Luke Million, is a member of The Swiss ... the band who caused Alpine to change their name from Swiss to Alpine.

Also, having fun rating some of this stuff on RYM as it comes up.

Are you allowed to give minus infinity to Skrillex?

 

[Axver]

Are you allowed to give minus infinity to Skrillex?

I gave it 1/5. Not as bad as most of my 0.5s, like that Nicki Minaj shite I got stuck into the other day.

And wow, Jebediah, blast from the past. Guy doesn't seem to have as bad a voice any more.

 

[Alisaura]

I have absolutely no interest in that Nick Cave tribute.

I find it hard to believe even Brokencyde is worse than Skrillex.

 

[Axver]

Of course Triple J squeezed in a mild hint at a joke for #69.

Whatever this is, it's a bit slow to get going and sounds awkward after the joke though.

 

[Axver]

I find it hard to believe even Brokencyde is worse than Skrillex.

At least I don't remember how it goes now, unlike fucking Taio Cruz whose godawful Hangover song is probably still stuck in some nook of my head.

 

[Axver]

Ooh, so this is from Bon Iver's new album?

Cobbler, don't you like this? Not sure how you can slag off the Husky song and praise this. Though this is a bit better, yeah.

 

[cobl04]

Bon Iver

 

[Alisaura]

Whee, that's one of my top ten that's made it!

 

[Axver]

So not left home yet, Alison?

 

[Axver]

Another Bon Iver song?!

And so that's this New Navy band that I've heard a bunch of hype about. Not too bad but wasn't paying 100% attention.

 

[Alisaura]

So not left home yet, Alison?

Er, no.

Must finish the A Thing!

 

[Axver]

Must finish the A Thing!

Ooh ...?

Also, I refuse to acknowledge that Bon Iver's name is pronounced any way other than "bon eye-ver". Anything else sounds so pretentious.

 

[cobl04]

I'm being biased towards Husky.

 

[Alisaura]

Ooh ...?

Don't get too excited... in fact, best if you aim for "underwhelmed". *L*

 

[Alisaura]

Please tell me this song doesn't say "they can't stop raping us"...

 

[Axver]

Don't get too excited... in fact, best if you aim for "underwhelmed". *L*

Don't get my hopes up too much!

 

[Axver]

Please tell me this song doesn't say "they can't stop raping us"...

Since it's called Raiders, not Rapers, I think you might be OK there.

 

[Slopsy]

Hi, that was the most boring work day ever apart from the awesome customer who kept requesting more Midnight Oil songs from me

I saw the worst bogans EVER on the tram home. And the neigbours are having a barbecue and it smells fucking amazing.

Yes, yes I do.

This is relevant to Charlotte's interests: I saw a product at the grocery store the other day claiming to be bacon jerky. I'm not quite sure how that works, but I'm certainly intrigued.

Weird. I don't think I would like it despite liking both things, since bacon needs to be crispy and jerky is chewy.

Made dinner tonight. One of those frozen, pre-prepared meals. Chicken and farfalle in vodka sauce. It literally smelt and tasted like hot buttered vomit. Palate cleanser? Actual vodka. I'm still hungry, but I'm put off eating for a while. Guess I'll drink till I don't care.

I have no sympathy. You purchased a ready-meal

 

[Alisaura]

Since it's called Raiders, not Rapers, I think you might be OK there.

Right. Good. Phew.

 

[Vlad n U 2]

It took me forever to find out that Bon Iver was a band and not just some lovesick guy with a beard.

 

[Alisaura]

Right, leaving in a few.

I'm intrigued enough that I might have to try it the next I'm at the grocery store.

If i knew how to make vodka sauce, I wouldn't have this predicament.

 

[Axver]

It took me forever to find out that Bon Iver was a band and not just some lovesick guy with a beard.

I think this is true of most people.

Though is it really a BAND, or just a bunch of people a lovesick guy with a beard has assembled to play his lonely beardy woodland songs?

Right, leaving in a few.

See you soon!

 

[Axver]

Speaking of Bon Iver, another Bon Iver song?!

First artist to log three this year. Now if his fan base had stuck to one song, how high might've that got ...
