Ernie. posted:i didn't say that the opinion isn't real, more like the opinion is particularly charged I don't think anyone is making this argument? I have nothing to say about whether albums, as a format, are dead. I've felt this way since before the internet was a thing and you would record songs you like off the radio and hope the DJ would shut the hell up over the beginning of the song. It has absolutely nothing to do with commercial success, but what you look for in music and whether you're going to get that from one artist over the course of many songs or many songs by many artists. In my experience it's the latter. I like lots of music and lots of songs, and most of the time could not tell you who sings them because it doesn't really matter to me.

Also on the subject of albums vs singles, I could easily modify my Mike Doughty choice to his recent once a week Drip.FM releases. He's done some gorgeous acoustic versions of his old songs that are perfect.

EccoRaven posted:hello PMush how are you doing? how is your times and happenings? tell us stories. So, as a bit of background, I worked at McDonald's until last week. It was alright, but I was slowly getting frustrated with their refusal to promote me or pay me more than $.25 over minimum wage at part time, so I'd started looking for other work. (Well, that and that the job had been the cause of two panic attacks in the last three weeks.) That's not the point of the story, just some background. Sunday's the General Manager's day off, so I went in on Sunday for a long-ish shift, 11 to 8 or something. I was pretty ready to quit already, since I've gotten a new job lined up and things were not getting any less stressful. But I don't want to burn a bridge I don't have to, so I'm toughing it out. Over the course of the day, we have four people missing. Three of them are just straight-up no-shows. And we're a smaller McDonald's. 4 people is like half the loving staff. We call the GM. He's insistent on not calling anyone in who'd be put over 25ish hours, because at 30, they'd have to offer them benefits. He also declines to come in himself, because it's his day off. Right around 5 PM, one of our other managers comes in, stays for about half an hour, and then walks out because "nobody cares about getting this place clean". Keep in mind, we are down to HALF our normal (already pretty tight) staff, so yeah, things being dirty is to be expected. All of us stay, of course. I work through my whole shift, until another manager comes in (half-asleep and in jeans, but by god, he comes in to help), then clock out, and immediately turn in my uniform. I don't remember quite what the note said, something like "Thank you for the work opportunity. I hope your new staff is more forgiving." After the fact, I found out that basically everyone is quitting.  So, that's the story of how I have a week and a half off before I start my new job (a night shift at Waffle House, but it's full time with benefits, so hey!)

Blue Lips is really good, but I always associate it with this one Homestuck video, because that's how I was introduced to it a few years ago. How's your summer vacation going, Ecco?

 This is Complete Bullshit is now open for signups. This is a closed set up game for 21 players, with quite a bit going on, to be discovered as play goes on. It should be a good time for all! If you want to play a game that's a little different, check it out. Also, I just skipped a bunch of posts in the thread. How many?

Blue Lips is a good song. My favorite Regina Spektor song, though, is Laughing With. It always makes me feel a little bad. McDonald's is the scum of the earth, and I am happy to hear you could quit Poison Mushroom. I'm sure you will have a much better job with Waffle House. Also, I am in Annapolis until Sunday evening and have tonight off. Trying to find something to dooooooo! EDIT: Now that I think more, I might actually like Samson better than Laughing With. Still, both are really good songs! QuoProQuid fucked around with this message at 21:40 on Jul 18, 2015 |

The Beatles-... probably Abbey Road but this keeps changing from Rubber Soul/Revolver (I treat them as a double album) to White Album to Sgt Pepper's to Abbey Road every few years or so Sonic Youth- Daydream Nation Arcade Fire- The Suburbs (not their best, that'd be Funeral, but this one has a huge emotional punch for me) Mission of Burma- Vs And then I'd want to say something like Interpol- Turn on the Bright Lights but as of 2013 or so it's more like David Bowie- The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust through to Diamond Dogs
