You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!

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.

So Casper has an ex-friend - they were close in 6th grade and Friend pretty much dropped her when they got to 7th grade (big new school). Casper found out today that this friend has gotten very into BTS in the last couple of months. Casper is feeling very superior since we have been into BTS since late 2016!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

It's good to be the trend setter.

Fun! The start of their career sounds as hectic and rapidfire as the song itself.

I saw a clip online of Paul McCartney talking to a CNN reporter at the anti-gun march in NYC. They were standing a few blocks from the Dakota. The very young reporter asked a question about legistative efforts to curb gun violence, and Sir Paul politely answered, and added "One of my best freinds was killed by gun violence right around here."

I'd bet a dollar the reporter still has no idea who McCartney was talking about.

I spent my whole lunch hour watching clips from School Rapper 2, a Korean rap competiton show involving kids born 1999-2001 (so, 16-18.) They are so good. (I am so old.)

This kid is AMAZING, and also talking about pretty taboo stuff: [link]

I bought it too. There's something so charming about the way kpop does physical albums, with photobooks and posters and stuff. (We got the Y version - double-denim.)
