That last picture looks precisely like my 5th grade teacher Mrs. Farenbach. She was pregnant most of the year, and she cried while we read "Where The Red Fern Grows" as a class.

I did fall asleep reading a particularly erotic chapter
in my grandmother's journal.

She wrote very detailed descriptions of her experiences...
Don't listen to anyone who tells you nothing in "Ironic" is ironic. Even Alanis Morisette.

Jagged Little Pill was the album most sold back to CD resale shops the year it released.

My gay sister was all about her for a time growing up.

I liked her stuff too but man relistening to the bonus track of her singing about trespassing in an ex's house and having breakdowns in there is some :stonk: stuff looking back.

I think only John Davis from Korn was the only other artist I knew of getting painfully raw with their emotions on their album.

That's what makes it so loving stupid. A song about ironies that arent ironies would be very clever, it itself would be ironic. Instead, there are several ironic things in the song and a bunch of coincidences. She's a loving idiot.

I was an alt rock radio DJ back in the late 90's, and I did everything in my power to not play Alanis' stuff. Not that she's bad, I just got tired of hearing it all the drat time.

Getting all geeky for a second, he's referencing an old talking point about how gold and platinum status is achieved based on record shipments, and how it's possible for a record label to stuff the channel to hit those marks and then just buy the records back.

Thing is, we've been able to track actual consumer sell-through rates for decades now, and it also really isn't feasible to fake an absolutely massive 16x platinum album. If it indeed had the highest resell rate I reckon it's just because it was just proportional with it being the best selling album that year period.

You probably already knew this but hey :goonsay:


EDIT: And I'm just now realizing that poster was in fact not referencing this at all and was merely talking about people selling the album to use stores. OH WELL!

I watched "Dogma" without knowing what Alanis Morissette looked like, which made the ending better in my opinion.

Like, no, in a vacuum, rain on your wedding day is not ironic. But it is if it specifically rains because it was your wedding day just to piss you off when normally it doesn't rain on people's wedding days because it's supposed to be a happy occasion.

And this is where you go "WTF are you talking about it, it DOESN'T ever rain just to spite you, that's impossible."

And from there I reply "No poo poo, Sherlock! The song's all about how we perceive life and fate, it's not talking about irony just for its own conceptual sake, why would you ever even make a pop aong about that??"

And that's where you say "Well why don't you just suck my dick then?"

And I'm like "I can't, your mom keeps hogging it!"

And then you're all like... :nyd:

'Cause the joke that you laid in the bed
That was me and I'm not gonna fade
As soon as you close your eyes, and you know it
And every time I scratch my nails
Down someone else's back I hope you feel it
Well, can you feel it?
