I'm with PMM. I love Gaga. Start with fun pop music, which has been in dreadfully short supply in the U.S. for some time. Add a "what'll she do next" vibe that (at least at this point) feels at least as genuine as it is calculated with an eye to the market.
Just keep walking, preacher-man.

For an actual good non-hipster beer, may I recommend Tupper's Hop Pocket Ale, which is brewed by my high school history teacher and recently back in production after a two-year hiatus?

When I hear Poker Face now, I substitute, "Even when it's bold italic."
Seriously. I want to marry that clip and have its babies.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I was once chased by a herd of cows, on a hill, in the woods, in Sicily. Cows are terrifying at speed, let me say.
They were probably in the Cowsa Nostra.
Genny Cream and Ballentine were my two "can't afford anything better" beers, though when I could find the Genny Twelve Horse, I'd much prefer it. And Ballentine had a hell of an IPA once upon a time (haven't seen it in over a decade in the northeast, however).
There was also the occasional foray into Haffenreffer aka Green Death.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Some people vote for Lloyd Dobler as perfect boyfriend, but I'd have to go for Martin Blank every time. He's what my Lloyd grew up to be.
I can't argue with that.

I hurt myself wincing and laughing at that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ha! That's what we drank in high school -- I forgot about that! Not that I really drank much of it, but I always did the rebuses.

Because books.
Lady Gaga really grew on me. I haven't seen or heard any interviews, but I think there's probably more to her than she's willing to show. And I did see a clip of her singing in a bar before she *became* Lady Gaga, and her voice is pretty amazing.

Wrod. I don't mind weird when there's the talent to back up.
