EXCELSIOR is the second solo album by British musician LOLZ Coombes.

i feel like spielberg is sometimes too quick to clarify things that might be better left uncertain for a few more scenes.

You'd have thought God's Not Dead would have been a definitive statement unto itself. The fact that they needed a sequel casts some doubt on the veracity of their argument. God's Not Dead 2: No, Seriously, Just Hear Us Out

An older one I just saw:

The song is about being young and discovering sex. You need to look a bit deeper in the lyrics to find the meaning.

I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five-and-dime
Played it till my fingers bled
Was the summer of '69

MEANING - he is talking about masturbation here. the six string is his "guitar" and the reference to 5 and dime refers to his hands (5 and 10 fingers). he "played it" till his fingers "bled" means he really got after it in that he masturbated so much it like hurt.

Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit, Jody got married
Shoulda known, we'd never get far

MEANING - here he has discovered group masturbation. "had a band" refers to his little group "tried real hard" means they really went after it. two of his friends move on and they no longer do it. he seems a bit sad that they did not progress or "get far" which probably means he was looking for a little something more.

Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenings down at the drive-in
And that's when I met you

MEANING - he keeps a positive attitude because he has a "job" to do meaning he needs to touch himself again. so he spent his nights at some "drive-in" and it is unclear here if he is talking about drive in movies that might very well be pornographic or he is talking about a drive in fast food place where he sits in the car watching.

Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life

MEANING - once again he has found someone to masturbate with. apparently this person reaches climax faster than he does so they reassure him they will "wait forever" but wait what happens next ? that person then holds his "hand" (penis) and he knew he could no longer wait and climaxes - wow those were great times he thinks the best days of his life.

Man we were killin' time
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever, forever, no

MEANING - they were "killin' time" and were "young and restless" because they were basically bored and did not have cable television or the internet or anything so what did they do ? then "needed to unwind" meaning they needed to masturbate so that is how they killed time.

And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six-string
Think about you wonder what went wrong

MEANING - they grow up and get older and he reflects on things that have "come and gone" but sometimes, probably when he is alone, he whips out "that old six-string" and thinks about his buddy or buddies.

Back in the summer of '69
Un-huh
It was the summer of '69, oh yeah
Me and my baby in '69, oh

MEANING - This is a reference to the sexual position "69" where two people come together for oral sex and resemble the letters 6 and 9 together. look at the number 69 and imagine two people facing each other but turned 180 degrees. the position allows for mutual direct access to each others sexual parts for mutual gratification. So there it is "the summer of 69" has nothing to do with 1969 it is basically a fond reflection on group masturbation.

Basically this whole thread has taken an excellent turn towards EXCELSIOR (I have tried to play my part in it but other posters have set a high bar):

"and that's okay" / "and here's why"

u are doing quite well imho

Haaaaa wtf even is a 10x dad.

Well, m bison already answered that, I guess.

Oh, okay, so a 10x dad is a living nightmare.

Trump is not really a template one can copy, and if future GOP fields are just a little stronger it will be harder for a personality cult like his to dominate. Even if Marco Rubio comes back in four or eight years looking less like a joke, which I think is probable.

Ah what the hell I jumped threads.

I don't know, the idea of Marco Rubio not looking like a joke is pretty funny

Maybe he'll grow a mustache or something.

Yeah that was my first reading

"and that's okay" / "and here's why" has a seriously seriously excellent lol:non-lol ratio. it's reminding me of another thread i can't place that also involved a lot of excellent english major jokes, riffing on something besides clickbait articles though. rrrrgh what was it.

Wasn't there an ilxor poetry thread or something?

I want to do another poetry contest tbh

The sheer WTFness of how this concluded has actually had me laughing out loud for the last five minutes:

i think if you live to be 400 you might be 20% as witty as you think you are.

Also I'd consider The Big Short, though not very good, to be a far more interesting film than Clouds.

Nah. If I want people shouting obvious things to me in a witty way that I'll eventually tune out, I want Morbs to do it, not characters written by the director of Anchorman.
