"timely"

I'm saying she could've posted that in June, when Starbucks announced their SY compilation, not that she could've posted it in 2003, when it wouldn't have made any sense. Ned with the lame zings too! (xpost)

If you insist on thinking I am making an oft-repeated zing, then consider me Sarah Silverman, of whom you are likely a fan.

The Thurston/Starbucks album is not even out yet, is it? Lol @ only talking about fashionable subjects.

I was in a conversation last night with an ILXer claiming that SY were a completely unpoliticized band. I bumped this to be all, "Ding dong, you're wrong."

Fair enough, there was subtext I couldn't have guessed based on your one-sentence post. I'm just saying, there was a pretty long thread about Sonic Youth/Starbucks like 2-3 months ago and I had no other reason to think that was a delayed zing along the same lines as a bunch of posts on that thread.

I don't understand the Sarah Silverman thing or why you're assuming I'm a fan of hers (not really, she's OK sometimes I guess).

Then perhaps THAT was an ill-placed zing ;)

And all is love.

Ned is one of those people who tries to turn any social situation into a group hug.

OTM

That or a contemplative orgy. Perhaps.

I still listen to the Jim O'Rourke/Glen Kotche cover of "Pictures of Adolf Again" from time to time. Otherwise it didn't produce much I liked.

I submitted a ton of songs to this, and even got a reply from Thurston in e-mail, but they never wound up on the site. But it seems like he just gave up on it at some point. And my songs were sort of insane.

twelve years pass...
