Sad.

Eric H., Friday, 3 April 2015 21:39 (eleven years ago)

Don't worry man the list changes all the time, maybe by 2030 or so Eric'll be back on top

3. Amos

b-b-but 'Amos Moses' is one of the happiest songs of all time!

I feel like the easiest way to ensure that your son will never enjoy life is to name him Chad. or Mervyn.

the geographibebebe (unregistered), Friday, 3 April 2015 21:42 (eleven years ago)

These are not ranked by the happiness of people who bear the name, but the intrinsic levels of joy/sorrow that these names contain in the abstract. Amos means "burden" so it's pretty sad.

Deviations were taken into account. "Jackie" is the happiest form of "John/Ian/Jonathan/Eoin/Johnny" and so on. "Chris", possibly the saddest name in history, is saved by the happy qualities of "Christopher". "Steve" and "Steven" are sad, "Stephan" and "Stefan" are still pretty sad; "Stevie" alone is joyful. Nobody should name their child Chad that is the name of a country, nobody should name their child North Carolina either. Mervyn is a terrific name

Oh no, I'm definitely very sad. Thanks, mom and dad, for the name.

...at this point, most every album is a mix of manure and gems and it's hard to rank them. I haven't listened to the Yellow Shark and Civ. Phaze 3 in years but they would probably place pretty high up.

Apostrophe? We're Only in It...? Surely both too good to be lost in the murk.

Dang, I always leave out something important. I'd put WOIIFTM at 3.5, above Hot Rats. Apostrophe, Overnite Sensation, One Size Fits All -- I lump those in the gems/manure category. Never been a big fan of Apostrophe.

WilliamC, Tuesday, 14 April 2015 16:33 (eleven years ago)

Most of the time these days when I want to listen to FZ music I go to the chamber ensembles and big bands (Ambrosius, Omnibus, Ensemble Modern, Le Concert Impromptu, Ed Palermo) that have done albums of his work.

WilliamC, Tuesday, 14 April 2015 16:38 (eleven years ago)

Easter Candy.

1. Jelly Beans-the Christopher Walken of Easter Candy, just a bit part that always steals the show.
2. Cadbury Creme Eggs-I mean come on. They just own Easter.
3. Whoppers Robin Eggs-do you ever think, 'if whoppers just had more candy on them'? I know I do.
4. Peeps-Look, we're all dying.
5. Reese's Chocolate Eggs-Pretty much a straight rip off of Cadbury, but still more effort than Snickers, which just goes in a pastel wrapper and calls it a day.
6. Skittles/Starburst filled Easter Eggs-still better than...
7. Random foil covered milk chocolate easter bunny-which I eat anyway and then get all judge-y about.

Tears of Unfathomable Sadness
1. Brach's anything. too hard a shell and too crappy a marshmallow. They are just so sad, kind of like how I feel when I go to the movies alone.
2. Cadbury Caramel Eggs-Living proof that there is too much of a good thing, but always kind of fun knowing that someone is going to have this all over their shirt.
3. Easter corn-get your ass back to Halloween.
4. Nerds anything. My non-chocolate palate is all stocked up with Skittles and Jelly Beans. Go away.

campreverb, Tuesday, 14 April 2015 17:34 (eleven years ago)

Cadbury mini eggs above all else.

Eric H., Tuesday, 14 April 2015 17:38 (eleven years ago)

too hard a shell and too crappy a marshmallow

Are you talking about those things that are shaped like elongated eggs, have a hard (but not crunchy-hard), kinda thick, pastel-colored shell, and inside it's sorta like a circus peanut but it's white, airier and a little granular? Do those things have a name? From what I remember, I actually like them.

the geographibebebe (unregistered), Wednesday, 15 April 2015 16:13 (eleven years ago)

(humans, bonobos, chimps, and macaques may as well be tied for 6th place afaic. but all the right angle brackets in the world cannot bridge the gap between these four primates and orangutans)

the geographibebebe (unregistered), Wednesday, 15 April 2015 16:29 (eleven years ago)

great ranking, wd personally promote magpies 1 place but that is pointless cavilling

did u see Virunga btw, didn't think I could still have my heart melted by gorillas but I was wrong

That's them, but I would never call that stuff in the middle "marshmallow"--it's not squishy/sticky/springy/marshy-mallowy.
