Use a line from Laz's classic.

Well I can't edit the title now, man.

 

[Dalton]

Well I can't edit the title now, man.

Why do people from Texas always fuck up the big jobs?

 

[corianderstem]

To hell with all you eager bitches. I guess NSW and I are the only two abstainers now?

For the record, ya'll can bust my chops all you want and try to tempt me. It doesn't bother me. If I disappear for a while, it just means my willpower is strong at that moment, not that I'm off in a corner crying.

 

[Varitek]

NSW caved hours ago.

 

[impy13]

NSW already listened last night, Cori. You're the only one.

 

[Dalton]

NSW listened last night, Cori.

 

[corianderstem]

Mike, why hast thou forsaken me???????

 

[impy13]

YOU'RE ALL ALONE, CORI.

But at least you've got your books.

 

[Dalton]

Poor Cori

From the last thread:

Rolling Stone has incurred even more of my wrath than I thought possible. Five stars for the new Springsteen, and now five stars for this...? It's fine to enjoy these albums, but five stars=perfect. That's absurd. Seriously. Ugh.

How many five-star records does the Boss now have, in Rolling Stone...? 14? Why doesn't integrity matter, in popular criticism?

No kidding, and everyone knows what a big Springsteen fan I am. The newest album is not even four stars.

 

[Sicy]

Well I can't edit the title now, man.

I think you have 10 minutes.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I still can't believe they used horns on Unknown Server (is that right?)... When was the last time they included horns?

 

[bono_212]

YOU'RE ALL ALONE, CORI.

But at least you've got your books.

That's not fair. That's not fair at all. There was time now. There was, was all the time I needed...

One of the reasons I love Moment of Surrender so much is because of the story behind it. Listening to it with the thought that it was a semi-improvised take, and that the only time the band ever played it was on the one take that makes the album, makes it that much more special. For me. Even if you don't buy into that shit, whatever. I think it's the best song on the album.

 

[corianderstem]

I hate you all.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

 

[Varitek]

I think you have 10 minutes.

yeah just change the subject.

also, i disagree with No Net. It's definitely No Cock.

lovetown?

 

[corianderstem]

Am I going to be the only Interlander who hasn't heard it by March 2nd?

That might be kind of nifty.

 

[impy13]

I think you have 10 minutes.

Well played. Ignore my PM.

 

[Varitek]

while I like GOYB better in the context of the album, I still neither like it nor think it fits terribly well.

 

[Lila64]

I think Martha is with you. And Drea.

 

[corianderstem]

Oh good!

I need to find out if either of my two local stores do the midnight release thing anymore.

I already told my boss I'm taking off the 3rd as a vacation day. I'll be pretty useless all day if I can't listen to it and FINALLY pay attention to what everyone's been saying about it.

My coworkers think I'm insane. This is not news to me.

 

[impy13]

Oh good!

I believe it's pronounced OHHHH GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD.

 

[Varitek]

well we also think you're insane, cori

 

[corianderstem]

I'm so sorry, you're right.

That's the best part of that whole rant!

 

[corianderstem]

well we also think you're insane, cori

Yes, but for different reasons.
