I just got home from work, and on the way back, me and the ball and chain stopped to pick up his dry cleaning in Little Five Points. Passing by Criminal Records, there was a large mob scene. Judging by the attendees, I thought it might be some kind of in store appearance that involved High School Musical, but then I saw all the Chuck Taylors and disaffected hair. Do 14 year olds with tragic bangs like High School Musical? Maybe they were older…I watched a few kids skip past my car on the way to Starbucks to take a pee break, and remembered my own days of ditching the burbs to hang out in Little Five Points. And never having anywhere to pee. That one gas station always put up fake “OUT OF ORDER” signs, and bathroom breaks ended up governing the eating schedule. Thank god that phase is over.
Anyways, I looked it up, and although I’m still confused about who is actually there, it looks like it’s an in-store comic book and CD signing with Coheed and Cambria. So, even though you’re now down to 22 minutes and counting, you could still make it. I know you have Pecanne Log hooked straight up to your iPhone, and you get instant updates every time we post. Please be ready to encounter many under-aged kids wearing very little clothing, smoking cigarettes, and looking mean.

They suck ass. And as immature as it is to say ‘they suck ass’, trust me, they do. I don’t blame children for liking their music, children are very easy to fool, but I would like to blame Coheed and Company for tarnishing the good name of prog or math rock (although they are not truly complex or interesting enough to qualify).
…pick up his dry cleaning….
This sentence, and the ones that follow it, are a warning sign that in short order you guys will be the type that start screaming at kids to get off your lawn and saying things at dinner parties like, “You know, music was just so much better in the ’90′s!”
Please tell me I’m wrong. I love you and I care.
happy Thanksgiving.
Phew, I’m glad someone else said it. I think they suck, too, but I’m wary of hate mail.
And Gordon, we will never have a lawn. I’m married to a Georgia State University Employee who holds a degree in Philosophy and History. You of all people should see the limitations here.
That being said, his job does require dry-cleaned business caz. If it makes you feel better, two of his shirts got rejected by the dry cleaner because they have holes in them. Apparently they won’t dry clean something just because it has a giant gaping hole in the elbow.
And P.S. Slint rules. And although you could argue that they are more 80′s, there’s 90′s, too. And don’t even get me started on C&C Music Factory.
Ooh, shit, sorry mamalikey. I didn’t look to see who posted this. I assumed it was Christa speaking of Holden.
You are forgiven. I’ll be complimented that you thought my post was Christa’s. Hers are always much better and funnier than mine.
