  1. Coughed. All. Fucking. Day.
  2. Finished Beggar King -- quite good, although the torture scenes are...uh...quite detailed and explicit (I think he was going for historically accurate). My recent shoulder problems had me squirming and flinching sympathetically.
  3. I think you heard that wrong -- was what you heard something more along these lines?
  4. Bunch o' Snarky Puppy on YouTube: This is one of the more energetic ones:
  5. Hot and Sour soup -- sweating profusely, but induced, so melikey
  6. A friend of mine has an ackDac whose battery just died, and he's wondering if it's worth it to replace the $75 battery (if he even can?) or if there's a good current DAC for around $200 that he should just upgrade to. I'm long since out of the market for DACs in that price range -- anyone know? Doesn't even need USB, just RCA.
  7. It stood out because it was one of the least offensive ones? I kind of like 'Slippery Gypsy'. (Please don't ruin it by explaining it.)
  8. That actually makes more sense than my explanation. I went to lunch with him and MPI once to a place in Rockville we used to call cheap Chinese -- fusion place, they sold sushi and Chinese -- I saw them both order a full helping of both (Chinese and sushi) and not flinch at the size of the portions delivered and both chowed down their entire meal.
  9. Ah, the metabolism of youth, I miss it.
  10. Isn't that the one with the wonky seal?
  11. Blur, The Magic Whip
  12. Happy birthday! (party favour noise)
  13. Yeah, I have yet to see him live, I need to one of these days...
  14. The Neighbourhood -- I've been listening to a lot of Archive lately, and they've been reminding me of someone, couldn't put my finger on until just now -- and it's not just how close the songs "Fuck U" and "Afraid" are -- I just really dig this sound -- British, alternative, slightly trip-hoppity. Both are recommended. Archive are more ... I don't know, addicitve? ... to me, but The Neighbourhood are probably more accessible.
  15. Looks like it needs charging. EDIT: Some reporter out there bought one in-store
  16. <-- Troll quote victim. Also, there's an update at the bottom of the article.
  17. HAPPYish series premiere -- oh my, I'm only 5 minutes in, and I'm laughing so hard I can't breathe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ryw5c5X3Ec&feature=youtu.be "Why bother with you at all, I could just get a bottle of wine and a blood pressure cuff." I'm crying. EDIT: Holy shit: "We're all sucking the same cocks...wincing at the taste doesn't make you a better man...it makes you a worse whore."
  18. Okay, now I'm listening to No More Shall We Part. This is sublime. It seems they alternate between albums like Goldfrapp do -- this is in the same vein as Push the Sky Away. IMHO. Side note: yes, I am the musical equivalent of a schizophrenic -- I'm not even finished listening to one album before the whimsical desire to listen to another crops up. I can't listen to albums fast enough. This may be why my preferred listening venue is the car -- captive audience, don't want to be distracted from driving, so I feel obliged to let <whatever> play. Too bad no headphones. And road noise. I even named my (failed) music blog, "by the time you read this, I'm listening to something else".
  19. ...or do I? I mean, I can always use the backpack straps as a body strap, neh? "Single-shoulder it", as they said in 21 Jump Street.
