I was so young. I was so foolish. I was so stoned. I can't believe I ever bought this.

as Polly Harvey once sung, "Shame, shame, shame".


You're a brave man for admitting to this.

D'oh! This was one of the first CDs ever gifted upon me (don't have it anymore though, see below)... little bit of trivia: some copies of the CD had the unlisted bonus track "The Power Of Love"* shoved somewhere in the middle, like Track 8 out of 11 total.

(* from that Back To The Future soundtrack?).

Buddy of mine in high school loved this band (wtf, he was a sax player dude, so I guess he's allowed) I mentioned that my copy had the unlisted bonus track - turns out his didn't - so I just gave it to him. Made his day & lightened my load - I'd call it a "win-win".

Sweet Christ - I just remembered another 'winner'...

Remember when CDs were still kind of new, and maybe you were young (and usually without money), and so maybe like if you saw a CD in the cut-out bin for a buck you might buy it no matter how fucked up it appeared to be?

('cause hey, it's *a CD*, and it's only a buck, right?):

(I seriously think the only thing that could top this would be someone who takes an ass-whipping "because it's free")

i too owned Shaq Diesel. (in the spirit of full disclosure i was a "wigger"/skinny half-assed jock till the eigth grade.)

and when i was "getting into guitar" i bought a copy of Gary Hoey's Animal Instict. if that's not embarassing, i don't know what is.

fuckin' Gary Hoey, people!

i'm gonna go hang myself.

in an opinion piece for The Onion, Elliot Leaf wrote:It's funny how what you're saying relates to my novel.


in my novel-in-the-works, i wrote:Phil Collins was a man who used to play drums in a band called Genesis. By some bizarre twist of fate (or some Divine Practical Joke) he became their singer. Such was his popularity that he soon “went solo,” meaning after that, nobody cared about his band anymore, only about him. Sam and Carl shared a sick fascination with Mr. Collins for three reasons: one, as Sam once put it, he could think of “no one more lukewarm, musically and lyrically, than Phil Collins;” two, as Carl always pointed out, whenever Phil Collins was shown on television “he’s always in a stadium! Such is his apparent popularity that he can never play anything less than an arena;” and three, he never used a real microphone and mic stand. Instead, he opted for the “McDonald’s-Drive-Thru-Headset-Mic,” which would eventually be implicated in the stage shows of such profound talent as Brittany Spears and Janet Jackson.
