there are subtle nuances in every single one of those EXCELSIORS, I'll have you LOL

hahaha can you believe they call soccer FOOTBALL over there lololol *farts*

otm

smells like gollum's cave in here, thx dayo. wait, is there a thread for fart jokes? besides 'every thread'

that is a solid lol regardless of who saha is imo.

As a hoy hoy points out, the joke only as to do w/football because of Saha's name. It's eligible for footcelsior but just as valid here unless you're some kind of easily butthurt Abba fan.

Upper Thames Valley Autotype Division 2, how many fans can they have?

oh wait none :(

ABBA Athletic sunday team are sad to announce that we have taken the descision to fold. Unfortunatly due to a lack of interest in sunday morning football in the Bicester area we have just been unable to raise a consistent eleven.

It snowed here yesterday.

SOME WINTER SPARROWS

I hear you already, a choir of small wheels,
Through frayed trees I see your
Shaken flight like a shiver
Of thin light on a river.
...

More snow: under a green fir-bush bowed low
With flakes broad as cats' paws
You hunch, puffed: if you do not
Move maybe it will go away.
...
Whether the gray cat is at the corner,
The hawk hunting over
The graves, or the light too late
To trust, you will not come down.

--W.S. Merwin

With some editing. Referring to Pete Nice's Deadspin piece on MCA:

--

that article felt sort of uncharitable and weirdly self-obsessed.

however, a couple nice pieces of trivia, which i'm always thankful for:

1) professor x was 3rd bass's manager! amazing!

2) DMX was Just Ice's beatboxer!!!! crazy

― Bandersnatch Cumberbund (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Thursday, May 10, 2012 2:31 PM (Yesterday)

okay, i'm wondering if that's the same DMX. it really can't be right? DMX doesn't beatbox.

i thought it was common knowledge that that DMX started out as a beatboxer in the '80s and that that was how he got his name. apparently Just-Ice worked with a guy called Human DMX, who was neither that DMX nor Davy DMX, though.

this is either a really stupid observation or an obvious one someone's already made but doing this quick overview over the past week the beastie boys maybe kinda echo the four seasons

Lol, I was wanting to map them onto phases of the Rolling Stones' career upthread, mostly as a product of the recent Stones poll:

Licensed to Ill = early Stones as a singles band, snotty bratty punk shit, timeless pop hits
Paul's Boutique = Their Satanic Majesties Request, hard left that the world wasn't ready for, "commercial suicide"
Check Your Head = late-60s/early-70s Stones, Beggar's Banquet through Exile, long hair & musicianship, glory regained
Ill Communication = mid-70s, Goat's Head Soup - Black and Blue, falling into a rut but still scoring hits
Hello Nasty = late-70s/early-80s, Some Girls - Tattoo You, new sounds & audiences, mining the past, dance music
To the Five Boroughs and cetera = inevitable decline (with bright spots), eminence

Kinda obvious, but I always mapped them onto Winston Churchill's career myself. LTI = snotty, punk-nosed brat with some questionable decisions (for 'Girls' read Gallipoli, for the stage show the gold standard). Then the visionary period in the wilderness (PB = crazy guy ranting about Hitler all through the 30s), with the public starting to get back on board with CYH/the ousting of Halifax. IC is the phoney war not-entirely-successful building of momentum (Dunkirk = Grand Royal?), before HN is D-Day onwards. Then with TT5B he gets kicked out of office even though he's still putting out the same work.

that is rly an amiable, extended zing at the expense of those with a hypertrophic tendency towards pattern-recognition

else, klata is quite quite mad

why not both
