Hey spotify folks. I've started a collaborative playlist "Slacker Music". Feel free to post/follow for music ideas. -- nm - spamlet Jul 11, 09:18 11
- I won't friend anyone on spotify because I don't want to be mocked for my tastes. I would rather just love what I love in peace. -- nm - amanda Jul 11, 09:20 2

- I have a Best of 2012 (so far) playlist, if anyone is interested. -- nm - Kim Pine Jul 11, 09:19 2
  - According to everyone around here that wouldn't have any songs in it. Must be a short list. :) -- nm - Jim Jul 11, 09:19 1
    - Well, it does have some jazz, blues and other miscellaneous, so I admit it might not be for everyone. - Kim Pine Jul 11, 09:21
amanda alert - 220 pound couture dress made of gummy bears: -- (link) - Andie Jul 11, 09:17
ok, I was *going* to leave at 12:57. but I can't do *anything* except post and shop online. I should just take the 12:32, right? take my computer - amanda Jul 11, 09:16

- 15-20 people means a dozen cars parked everywhere, though around here we have houses full of teens like that like - zeitgeist Jul 11, 21:43
I want to use the c-word on Bev Oda -- (link) - zork Jul 11, 09:08

ST Music Poll: Favorite song of 2012 so far? - con_carne Jul 11, 09:07 63 1
- Fav? Probably Shake it Out by Florence -- nm - spamlet Jul 11, 09:17 2
  - I like no light no light a lot when I'm pissed, -- nm - amanda Jul 11, 09:26
  - So good. -- nm - con_carne Jul 11, 09:21
- Blow Me (One Last Kiss) -- I adore Pink. -- nm - David Jul 11, 09:14
- still nobody is posting Afro Circus? especially a stealth post? -- nm - zork Jul 11, 09:13
- Favorite song of 2012? I'd probably say something by Hot Chelle Rae, they just embed themselves in my brain but Jack is right about the other -- nm - oblique Jul 11, 09:13
- This 80s remix of 'Somebody that you used to know' (repost) -- (link) - Dr.Vermin Jul 11, 09:12 [youtube]
- My favorite is probably Love Interruption. I dunno about summer. - Kim Pine Jul 11, 09:11
- it would be between Goyte and We Are Young, for me. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 11, 09:09 8
  - You know, I have not even come close to getting tired of either of those songs. -- nm - con_carne Jul 11, 09:22 6
    - Goyte makes me hope the Mayans are right. -- nm - David Jul 11, 09:23 5
      - This surprises me. This song is such a departure from what's popular now, I find it to be incredibly refreshing. - Jim Jul 11, 09:24 4
        
        ugh - znufrii Jul 11, 09:27
        
        Refreshing is a good word. The dude managed to put out a slow heartbreak ballad... that you can dance to (even without the remix). -- nm - con_carne Jul 11, 09:26
        
        The dance mix is the only thing I ever hear. It's despicable. -- nm - Other David Jul 11, 09:26 1
        
        yeah, no. - groiny Jul 11, 09:27
  - Word. -- nm - Jim Jul 11, 09:21

- [deleted] 44
  - The first time I heard it, I couldn't believe today's pop music had sunk so low -- nm - Hotkiss Jul 11, 09:12 15
    - Really? There's nothing different from it and the pop of the last 30 years. - ty97 Jul 11, 09:14 8
      - I actually disagree on that. I can think of some pretty specific reasons why Call Me Maybe in particular is a phenomenon. - con_carne Jul 11, 09:15 7
        
        [deleted] 6
        
        I think the bieber video is what made the song so viral. -- nm - amanda Jul 11, 09:21 2
        
        [deleted] 1
        
        also, that video? 100% charming. -- nm - amanda Jul 11, 09:23
        
        NPR is my Justin Bieber ;-) -- nm - con_carne Jul 11, 09:18
        
        it was released in Canada last summer and did well here on its own. I remember hearing it and thinking it was decent. -- nm - zork Jul 11, 09:18 1
        
        [deleted]
    - This? Of all the songs? -- nm - Strongbad Jul 11, 09:13 3
      - IKR? it's much better than so many other things out in the last X years, especially since there is no apparent over the top autotune. -- nm - zork Jul 11, 09:16 1
        
        When you can mash it up with Third Eye Blind, it's legit pop :) -- nm - oblique Jul 11, 09:17
      - This and I'm Glad You Came by the Wanted - Hotkiss Jul 11, 09:14
    - oh please. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 11, 09:13 1
      - [deleted]
  - And I still haven't heard it. :-) - Krusty Jul 11, 09:12 23
    - it is totally MMM Bop, the 2012 version. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 11, 09:13 20
      - No, that was Friday. -- nm - Spawn Jul 11, 09:15 17
        
        no, I slag Hanson pretty hard, but in reality MMM Bop was a damn fine pop song. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 11, 09:15 16
        
        *blink* *blink* -- nm - Spawn Jul 11, 09:16 15
        
        dude, if you do not remember, it was EVERYWHERE when it was out. - groiny Jul 11, 09:17 14
        
        That means they are the same thing? - Spawn Jul 11, 09:21 6
        
        youa re saying that they are not both bubblegum pop? nm -- nm - groiny Jul 11, 09:23 5
        
        [deleted]
        
        There are tens of thousands of bubble gum pop songs. Those two are at opposite sides of the playing field. -- nm - Spawn Jul 11, 09:24 3
        
        how do you figure? nm -- nm - groiny Jul 11, 09:25 2
        
        The music structure. -- nm - Spawn Jul 11, 09:25 1
        
        do you even listen to music? nm -- nm - groiny Jul 11, 09:26
        
        And I hated and mocked it then just as I still do today. - David Jul 11, 09:20
        
        [deleted] 5
        
        I could not possibly disagree with you more on this one. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 11, 09:18 4
        
        I'm actually with you on this. It's a catchy ass song. -- nm - Jim Jul 11, 09:22
        
        [deleted]
        
        [deleted] 1
        
        this -- nm - Spawn Jul 11, 09:22
      - [deleted] 1
        
        I encourage you to listen to MMM Bop again. - groiny Jul 11, 09:15
    - I've only heard Cookie Monster's and it's not that bad. -- nm - mara Jul 11, 09:13 1
      - I've only seen the memes about it. I don't even know who sings the song. :-) - Krusty Jul 11, 09:15
  - *ding* -- nm - Spawn Jul 11, 09:10
  - When Cookie Monster is covering the song...it's big. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 11, 09:09
  - *nods* -- nm - zork Jul 11, 09:09
  - I was worried it was peaking too early, but it didn't. it's this, without question. -- nm - MDH Jul 11, 09:09

- If neither of you is on a deadline, this may never happen. - Old Antarctic Explorer Jul 11, 09:12
- would it help to offer to him assistance in doing it? -- nm - zork Jul 11, 09:11
- i would pretty much not count on Mr W for anything at that point. -- nm - Andie Jul 11, 09:11
- "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity." -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jul 11, 09:09 1
  - This is my new motto for the day -- truer words haven't appeared... - Old Antarctic Explorer Jul 11, 09:13 1
- Did he indicate time frame for reanalysis? I say he gets one follow-up call and if nothing, then drop him. -- nm - Spawn Jul 11, 09:08 1
  - [deleted]
- don't know about 'stop believing everything' but I would be very cautious about Mr .W. going forward -- nm - decline Jul 11, 09:08 1
  - This. -- nm - Krusty Jul 11, 09:13
Know your audience 101: Romney just spoke at NAACP Nat'l Convention and said he'd repeal "Obamacare" he got booed for a solid 15 seconds. -- (link) - MDH Jul 11, 09:06 [youtube] 3
- I think he's in the most awkward position of any politician I've ever seen. He's running against his own legislation. -- nm - David Jul 11, 09:10
- "Are they saying Boo or Woo?" -- nm - Beryllium Jul 11, 09:07 1
  - Boo-urns. -- nm - Roger More Jul 11, 09:10
I wonder why remlik decided to bury his facebook status in dust? -- nm - Beryllium Jul 11, 09:04 1
- 13 hours ago -- (link) - Beryllium Jul 11, 09:05 [Image]
From the B2 music poll, I'm pretty sure I know less than a handful of songs from those artists combined. :-( -- nm - MDH Jul 11, 09:01 21
- Surely you now more than a handful of Rolling Stones songs? -- nm - Spawn Jul 11, 09:05 7
  - "Satisfaction" is the only one I can think of. -- nm - MDH Jul 11, 09:08 6
    - Any pf these? Only Rock n Roll, Jumpin' Jack Flash, Can't Always Get What You Want, Gimme Shelter, Honkytonk Woman, Undercover, Waitin' On a Friend? -- nm - Spawn Jul 11, 09:12
    - Paint it Black? -- nm - Strongbad Jul 11, 09:10 4
      - Gimme Shelter? Tumbling Dice? Start Me Up? -- nm - Roger More Jul 11, 09:11 3
        
        Ruby Tuesday. Beast of Burden -- nm - Andie Jul 11, 09:12
        
        RubyTuesday? Shattered? nm -- nm - groiny Jul 11, 09:12 1
        
        Sympathy for the Devil? -- nm - Roger More Jul 11, 09:14

    - It's "Jude" -- nm - ty97 Jul 11, 09:14 1
      - Old fogie! -- nm - con_carne Jul 11, 09:19
    - What a random loose thread you connected to me, I'm flattered -- nm - Hotkiss Jul 11, 09:10 1
      - The dancing Jesus statues? Second movement, baby! Walking through the record shop? - con_carne Jul 11, 09:17
  - [deleted]
  - We've been through this before on the board, nope. Parents don't own any albums etc. I can name a few, but haven't heard them. -- nm - MDH Jul 11, 09:06 4
    - you have heard many Beatles songs without knowing it. It is literally impossible not to. -- nm - loosilu Jul 11, 09:23 3
      - That's debatable, I think. The Beatles aren't exactly known for liscensing out their tunes. -- nm - con_carne Jul 11, 09:25 2
        
        not for a long time but that changed in the late 80s, plus there have been a million covers, including muzak versions that we've *all* heard in stores -- nm - zork Jul 11, 09:28
        
        you're kidding right? Even Target used Hello Goodbye. -- nm - loosilu Jul 11, 09:27

SITWAP: In 2009, Americans paid federal taxes at the lowest rate in 30 years -- (link) - znufrii Jul 11, 09:01 12
- In other news, 40% of us don't pay federal income tax -- (link) - Strongbad Jul 11, 09:09 10
  - So then we should raise the rates so more people pay more taxes? -- nm - amoxy Jul 11, 09:16 3
    - only on the freeloading poor, obvie. -- nm - znufrii Jul 11, 09:19
    - [deleted] 1
      - And the flipside of that argument is - Strongbad Jul 11, 09:46
  - [deleted] 1
    - I hope you realize that I'm not a "No taxes!!!" person. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 11, 09:50
  - so, it's gone down, then? -- nm - znufrii Jul 11, 09:10 3
    - *shrug* Ask the CBO. It's their report. -- nm - Strongbad Jul 11, 09:12
    - Really, I thought the right was touting that 55% of us don't pay Federal Income Tax -- nm - amoxy Jul 11, 09:11 1

    - Haven't we all, though. Haven't we all. -- nm - con_carne Jul 11, 09:20
Does that make you love me, baby? Does that make you want me, baby? -- nm - David Jul 11, 08:50 6
- I just favorited a post of yours. - Kim Pine Jul 11, 09:08 2
