The following is going to be nothing more than a bunch of YT embeds. There's a newish member of the Mic Snobs TF2 community who is experienced as the Spy class and posted a short "frag video" to our Discord. You don't need to know what any of that means. The music he chose was so actively painful I commented how it made me want to die. He said it was a classic from "when [he] was 15 years old." That was 2007, apparently. I did the proper old person thing and went on a rampage in the music channel of our Discord, posting a bunch of songs from when I was ~7 years old. I'm not sure it will embed, but the frag clip with the "song" is here: https://streamable.com/37w5zo

NSFW. This guy shoots Leica and is a spectacular example of why Leica glass just obliterates everything this side of large format. His images are so sharp it's stupid.

Is this thread indexed by google? I forget. I had a dualski colonoscopy and endoscopy yesterday. The prep work was gruelling in extremis. The good news is that I don't have any obvious symptoms. The bad news is that there's no explanation as to why I'm sick so severely and so often. Today I am operating at like 1/10 power. Unsure if I'm doing my radio show tomorrow or not.

Last night's show is up: Got into some fairly weird territory.

Wait for it:

Last Friday's show is up: I'm quite pleased with how both the mix and the rant at the end came out. Also, the fact that I was able to record it this &%$# week.

Who on HC isn't old enough to remember the madness of 1996? I went to college with a Spanish guy whose room shared a wall with mine. He was playing (one of the early remixes of) the Macarena in the fall of 95. I remember simultaneously hating it and getting the stupid chorus stuck in my head.

This is pretty amazing.

One of the lesser known routines by the late, great Bill Hicks is his homage to Charlie Hodge. The Hodge routine appears on at least one Hicks CD, and in numerous live recordings shared via mp3 on the internets in the last ~25 years. Bill Hicks has always been a cult figure, and his fans were early to adopt to the ways of p2p to share his material. In the early days of YouTube a bunch of his stuff got uploaded there fairly quickly. As YT works, a lot of that stuff is now gone because of copyright claims by parties that have no right to Bill's work. Over 11 years ago I wrote a couple comments on a video of Bill doing an extended, unhinged, absolutely brilliant version of the Charlie Hodge bit. Then years after I returned to the video and commented on it again. I know all this because the uploader just "hearted" my comments and I got email notifications for each one. I rewatched it tonight. This performance is legendary. NSWF obviously, as it contains Bill Hicks. The complete realm of sanity and reason, indeed.
