You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I still want to know what happens if you have sex in the champagne room.

Bubbles in new places!

Also, thanks for all of the surgery ~ma. It went okay. We have to go back in October. There was a pharmacy fuck up due to the new electronic medical record system. But it's been resolved with a mean phone call.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Clorox wipes. One hopes.

My only commentary on the "Escape" exegesis is that until I was 13 I thought the lyric went, "If you like bean enchiladas..."

I really don't. I tried making some a couple of weeks ago and they were much less tasty than I'd hoped.

"Billy Don't Be a Hero" is on the Top 40 in hell.

I wish my brain would let me become nostalgic for "Sister Goldenhair," but it's my most persistent earworm.

Because books.

until I was 13 I thought the lyric went, "If you like bean enchiladas..."

I am singing it this way forever now.

I want a complete exegesis of "Billy Don't Be a Hero" by COB tomorrow. With footnotes.

Sadly, I could probably do this without irony. And add a sidebar about "The Night Chicago Died."

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My most persistent earworm is George M. Cohan's "I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy". I am not sure what that says about me.

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

There's a webcomic going around that's Excape++--they're actually having an affair with each other, and she's gotten pregnant despite pretending to be either a boy or Hitler...or something. Looking it up would break my brain, though.

To drive home the point that you've been a fool with your life.

I'm sorry for damaging your love for "Escape", Teppy. I counter it with my sense of utter betrayal when I figured out the meaning behind "I've got a brand new pair of roller skates, you've got a brand new key."

Also, what is the champagne room, never mind why is there no sex in there.

And I always sympathized with the girl in "Billy Don't Be a Hero. But not with the whiner in "Where Have the Cowboys Gone?" who can't deal with her husband since he came back from the war. (though it's sad and interesting that another generation has "back from the war" tropes)
