Wesley: Illyria can be...difficult. Testing her might be hard without getting someone seriously hurt. Angel: We'll make Spike do it. Wesley: Good.

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Hm, the closest Nick Cave is coming to Boston is New York. Oh well. I also didn't realize the US leg of the tour would be Nick solo. That would be interesting to see.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Doesn't Cat Power have a new record out now? Or is that forthcoming? I can't remember. I've been dosing on her covers record recently, which I quite like.
The more I listen to Dig Lazaruss Dig (like Panic at the Disco, I feel the punctuation is optional in polite company) the more I really flipping love it.

I love The Doves. That is all.

I get some Doves in my Pandora stream. I like them all right.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
According to Chatty!co-worker, there are 2 bands with the name "Doves" -- one is THE Doves, and one is just Doves.
Which seems dumb as hell to me, but what do I know?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Let's make them fight!

Chatty!co-worker is the kind of person who likes to act soooooooo superior because *he* knows information that 99% of the population doesn't know (or give a damn) about. So once, in discussing music, I said something about The Doves, and he replied with, "Do you mean Doves, or THE Doves? They're 2 totally different bands, and only one is any good," blah blah blah.
I got really annoyed and snarked back something about how if recognizing a band is dependent on a definite article in front of its one-syllable name, maybe they should consider a new name.
His reply? "Don't get nasty with me just because you can't keep straight which band is which."
I hate that superior I-know-more-than-you bullshit that implies you suck if you don't possess the same encyclopedic knowledge of useless trivia that the other person does.
(Don't get me wrong; I have a VAST repository of useless trivia in my brain, but I don't sneer at people who don't know that there was more than one Robin, for instance. That shit is just rude and poorly socialized.)

Chatty!Co-Worker needs to find the vast universe of anonymously-commented on blogs and online message boards, where one can do this at will for little to no stakes. ISTG, I am doing it right now, AIFG!
