What Are you Listening to Right Now?

[Wolter]

I can tell you what I’m not listening to: Bittersweet Symphony.

I know that nobody will give a shit probably least of all you Jon.

But it's actually Bitter Sweet and not Bittersweet. Actually no least of all me. I'm must be so bored.

You're bored? I'm the chairman of the bored. Done my back in and I've been lying on the couch for 3 hours now. On topic I'm listening to You're So Cool by Hans Zimmer and I'm wondering what film/TV show I know it from but haven't got a clue. It ain't True Romance either.

I’ve found out where we can bond: fucked up backs.

Then stop listening to it.

I don't listen to it. But either way I'll listen to what the hell I want when I want to buster!

Merely some friendly advice my good chap.

I don't understand half of what you just posted.

Perhaps its because your top hat is too tight or you need a new monocle.

Who the fuck would know.

I'm sorry but I can't help but picturing poor Flex wearing these back in jr high.

Not all were quite that extreme, I think mine were three style shown on the left of this photo:


Still pretty baggy, but still functionally jeans. I thought the really baggy ones were dumb as hell, which probably was a sign the whole exercise was going to be pointless for me.

It's a nice reminder that for all the joking I like to do about the 90s, it was an overwhelmingly alienating decade for me and I hate the major pop signifiers of my youth so, so much.

I thought they were real dumb then, so I never got a pair. I went from nerd to 'punk' (I looked exactly the same but wore an Op Ivy shirt) in highschool. Didn't stop at Jncos or KSwiss shoes or..... maybe this was just my school....but when the 'Thong Song' came out guys in my grade dyed their hair silver.

[Wolter]

Yeah, I never wore JNCOs. Hated the way they looked.

JNCOs Pardner.

Well, look who crawled out of his tipi again.

Welcome back, pal.

Usually when the scrap dealer comes around with his flute.

Welcome back, pal.

Thanks!

Wie geht's?

Right. I'd forgotten you were learning German.

Danke, es könnte im Augenblick nicht besser sein. Wie sieht's bei Dir aus?

EBTG's Smiths album. I've got a complete and uncritical love for Tracey Thorn's slightly husky voice.

Lol, I actually let my German lapse. I need to get back into it. Good to know you use "du" form with me though.

[Dr. Medulla]

Trippyish, along the lines of Massive Attack.

Of course I du. (sorry)

It seems the "Sie" form is gradually disappearing anyway.

Hello,

Alles ist weniger formal.

As a huge Massive Attack fan, I agree. I've been meaning to check more of their stuff out.

I tried this out a couple years ago, but I don't remember it much. I'll check again.
