if Franz Ferdinand are the new The Strokes...

Why do you have to be so complicated? Avril Lavigne knows just how to pin me down in one expertly constructed lyric. I'm not attracted to her, but I'd like to sit with her and drink her anarchist brand of coffee (look for it in the smash hit video Sk8ter Boi...or don't). I wonder if in a cup of anarchist coffee, every bean feels empowered. I feel empowered right now. I've decided that I'm going to change myself, but still stay the same. How is this possible? Ask Helena at Great Clips. Or a Zensunni philosopher.

By the way, the video for sk8ter boi is amazing. If you don't find any joy to share with others over seeing a coffee cup marked with an anarchy symbol, than you're probably the kind of person who'd rather enjoy digging up information on others for the express purposes of trying to humiliate them.

Also btw, I really appreciate you posting that breakup fragment up here for everyone. I'm also certain that any breakups you've ever had (assuming, of course, that you're not above such banal things as relationships) were nowhere near as typical and uninteresting as that one.

I like Franz Ferdinand. I like the Strokes. Trying to stereotype me is cute. It's also easier than thinking.

Out of curiosity, is there anyone who'd take Franz Ferdinand's s/t over the Strokes' "Is This It?"? The former seems timbrally uninteresting and surprisingly slow; the stuff that's meant to rollick along plods instead. "Is This It?" has memorable melodies and lots of energy.

Oh yeah, anyway, I'd be really pissed at any school dumb enough to use real social security numbers for identification, then be dumb enough to post that info on the web. Just sayin'.
...
Anyone else heard that cover of "Take me Out" in a Billy Joel style? Uh, yeah.

I guess that's just not my definition of hilarity.

Moreover, ¥¤±²£¢Ð¼æ®ª«¶Þ÷³¹ß½Øש§¾¿¥¤±²£¢Ð¼æ®ª«¶Þ÷³¹ß½Øש§¾¿¥¤±²£¢Ð¼æ®ª«¶Þ÷³¹ß½Øש§¾¿ (hereafter referred to as "chk chk chk" for my personal amusement) either had to notice my SS number and still post the link, or simply miss it out of sheer stupidity. The latter makes him a moron, the former a malicious fuck who disregards any sort of privacy in order to get cheap laughs. You make the call. Or we could get to discussing music.

And, oh yeah, I like the Postal Service. Especially the Shins version of "We Will Become Silhouettes," because if I get to name-drop two indie bands in one 'graph, I'll get more street cred on makeoutclub. Right?

i say this in earnest, not in the spirit of irony or elitism. maybe xenophobia

that sounded very chuck eddy.

blame your school for putting the SSN up. it is HIGHLY illegal because of some education privacy law

Thanks for trying, though.

How did you know?
