At a client all day, but my Gaga thoughts besides making her version of "Express Yourself" it's a pretty good song. - MDH Feb 11, 13:16 24
- Lady Gaga's song is just too much like 1989's Express Yourself, please stop copying the Queen.....who is my lover. Thanks!!. -- nm - Stacey Feb 11, 13:29 1

  - Oh yeah agreed. I'm going out on a date (movies and drinks after) we are seeing "The Eagle" he's awesome - MDH Feb 11, 13:23 2
    - [deleted] 1
      - I saw Torque on a date once. Yeah. I didn't get a second one. I misjudged their ability to watch terrible movies and poke fun at them. -- nm - Qale Feb 11, 13:27
- Our trans friend is pretty upset, per Facebook. -- nm - nubby Feb 11, 13:20 10
  - Oh? That's interesting. Any further details? -- nm - Qale Feb 11, 13:23 9
    - IT'S A COPY OF HER GIRLFRIEND'S SONG!!!!!! -- nm - Amy Feb 11, 13:26 8
      - Oh, *that* one. (nmbyawn) - Qale Feb 11, 13:28
      - seriously? -- nm - Diva Feb 11, 13:27 6
        
        Yep. "Plus I'm dating one of them. - Will Hunting Feb 11, 13:28 5

        heh, I was just coming here to post that. -- nm - Stephen Feb 11, 13:33
        
        :( -- nm - Diva Feb 11, 13:33
- heard it for the first time today. My first thought was "ripp-off". It was a catchy song, but wow was it a rip of Express Yourself. -- nm - sycor Feb 11, 13:19
- I know the critics will say it's a Madonna clone, but they should look up what an homage is. It's very pop-tastic and better than Britney's latest. -- nm - Qale Feb 11, 13:18 5
  - Clones are better than covers that do nothing to interpret the song differently. -- nm - Max Feb 11, 13:22 3
    - I guess it's more of an update than a clone. She's essentially taking the sentiment and upping the ante. As for covers, well, I do love me some covers - Qale Feb 11, 13:25 2
      - I was annoyed with Stefani doing It's My Life because there was no interpretation. You only have so much air time in a career, do something interstng - Max Feb 11, 13:31 1
        
        Oh yes, with this I absolutely agree. Covers can't be your singles. -- nm - Qale Feb 11, 13:41
  - America is going to flip when this is performed at award shows (starting with grammys) -- nm - MDH Feb 11, 13:21

Honest to Flying Spaghetti Monster, the first person who can find me a reliable, legal means to watch new Justified episodes will be given a great big - musubi Feb 11, 13:13 15
- It's on Amazon. $1.99 for regular, $2.99 in HD. -- (link) - JaxSean Feb 11, 13:30

        PS- I owe you a mouth hug. (nm) - musubi Feb 11, 13:31
    - is it not on Hulu? Is not, newsgroups are where I get shows from, if you know how to do that. -- nm - sycor Feb 11, 13:20 4
      - Not on Hulu, with no sign when new eps might be coming. I can torrent, but I'm trying to find "legal" means. (nm) - musubi Feb 11, 13:23 3
        
        Buy the season pass on Amazon VOD. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 11, 13:35 2

    - I like that guy who specializes in antique weapons. Smart, concise and easy on the eyes. - Diva Feb 11, 13:17 2
      - He's really sharp, but he looks a little....I dunno, greasy, I guess, to me. - musubi Feb 11, 13:20 1
        
        Might be the hair gel. -- nm - Diva Feb 11, 13:24

    - [deleted] 4
      - I'm sure he does some prep but I'd hope he wasn't home pouring over Wiki just to look smrt. -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 11, 13:21 2
        
        This. I'm sure he does his homework to some extent, but if the manner in which he speaks on the stuff makes - musubi Feb 11, 13:26 1
        
        right, it seems that he has an easy recall of stuff that makes me think he knows at least a moderate amount about the stuff he's referring to. -- nm - Mel Profit Feb 11, 13:33

1979 World Champion manager Chuck Tanner has died. -- nm - Will Hunting Feb 11, 12:59

So who was the last presidential press secretary that ST cared for? -- nm - Stephen Feb 11, 12:54 15

  - One section of the lyrics sounds so 80s it reminds me of Bone Symphony's One Foot In Front of the Other. -- nm - Max Feb 11, 12:55
- I'm hoping to avoid it forever. -- nm - JaxSean Feb 11, 12:51 1
  - I have heard one and a half of her songs. - Spawn Feb 11, 12:53

Robert Gibbs has to be pissed that Mubarek stole his thunder. -- nm - nubby Feb 11, 12:48 2
