Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

It's "Daybreak" by Michael Haggins, and it's a recurring joke: [link]

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Well, guess I'll be doing a bit of rewatching tonight. (Not a hardship!) Thanks, Steph.

eta: Work internet won't access Youtube. Yet another reason why it's past time to go home. Thanks, shrift.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Troy and Abed also used it as outro music (by humming it) for their podcast with the German guy the week before last.

It's ALWAYS in my head. As are most of the songs from the glee club Christmas episode.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

That's too fucking subliminal--I realise I'd caught it three times, but never thought about it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That's too fucking subliminal

Which is to say it's exactly the right amount of subliminal.

Well, it's "better" than the Beetlejuice, which I can still barely detect.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Look, wherever your liminal is...it's below it. That's just the way it is by definition.

You can try to pitch your liminal lower but then it's supraliminal.

"Oh no! Has falling sky liquid once again caused you the sadness?" -Starfire

I hum that song all the damn time! It's actually a great way to find other Community fans.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

You can try to pitch your liminal lower but then it's supraliminal.

Superliminal advertising works. Ask the Simpsons: [link]

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Jeff did actually give me a lot of feels in this last episode.
