play this again and I will cut you, but I'm too obsessive completist to delete it
That's what the tickybox is for in iTunes.
Spike: Ladies. Come on in. Plenty of blood in the fridge, don't be shy. Dawn: You mean like, real blood? Spike: What do you think? Dawn: Mostly I think, 'Eew!'

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
I am a toucher but only with people who want to be touched. DJ has the right idea.
Don't feel like you have to make allowances for her just because she is depressive, single and potentially under-touched. Your need for personal space and a touch-free zone at work is no less important.
I don't think I've ever seen you with anything but short hair, flea.

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

No, the tickybox is to say "I might still really like you, but you don't belong in a random song rotation." My unchecked stuff still gets starred--it's just mostly spoken word.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Also, it is (or was) possible to rate songs in iTunes in half-star increments.

That's what the genre field is for.

Since I tend to yelp when I'm startled, it provides consistent negative feedback to grabbers and people who walk into your cube talking loudly.
My coworkers at HM learned to stand back from my cube entrance and say softly my name a couple times when I looked to be intent on a program.
Jesse, thanks -- I should write them! There can't be that many knitter/programmers out there, can there? (say no.)

Too limited. Too many different genres of spoken word, as well as "mostly" spoken word. Not just only. Some classical music also goes there. But not all.
I have one song I deleted off my iTunes because it gives me an anxiety attack to listen to it, and I'm not going to ruin my composure by any combination of circumstance throwing "It's Too Hard To Say Goodbye" at me.
That's interesting, Tommy. I wonder if you can make playlists based on half stars.

Yeah, I'm curious about that too.
I'm not sure if you can assign half-stars in an iPod, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Jesse, thanks -- I should write them! There can't be that many knitter/programmers out there, can there? (say no.)
Hardly any! They say they are afraid the person they are looking for doesn't even exist!

Wasn't one of the first "computers" a programmable knitting machine? I think it was in the 1800s - it used punch cards.
