You guys only think downloading stuff is weird because you haven't been doing it for years and years.
So I've been downloading since mid-2003. You're right, at first I did think it was weird, and then that went away for awhile, but lately I've been thinking about it more and more, and I find it not exactly weird anymore, but increasingly indefensible -- even as I dutifully click on every YSI link that comes my way.

That's bull. That's not why. The two people who are concerned with the morality of downloading are the two people here who would probably, in a perfect world, like to make money off their music. And I understand that. And I have nopthing to say about it except that your mission is probably futile, and that you'll get a better return off of free music than you will off of a record deal. So you have to buy what you have to buy, and you have to download what you have to download. You know the line.
― Gilbert O'Sullivan (kenan), Tuesday, 28 March 2006 06:09 (nineteen years ago)

Well, that's what I was accusing you of to begin with. Just buying records that you could easily download because buying records is a habit, or it's a wonderful pastime or somthing. It's really not, if you can get the music elsewhere.
Really the issue of guilt is moot at this point. I wrestled with it for a couple of years, and then decided not to wrestle anymore. Like the semi-sentient computer in WarGames, I learned futility.
― Gilbert O'Sullivan (kenan), Tuesday, 28 March 2006 06:22 (nineteen years ago)
I have no sentimental attachment to buying records. I don't really even own that many records. And like I said, those CDs that I just bought are going to languish on my shelf, because 90% of my listening is done either on my computer or on my iPod. I might take them out if I want to listen to something while I'm in the shower, but otherwise no. My purchase is just more a matter of doing the right thing, morally.

A lot of the CDs I buy are used, in which cases the artists make no money from my purchase.
I know of people in bands who have gotten depressed when, on tour, a group of people buy a single copy of their CD from the merch table and openly discuss ripping it for each other.
I think musicians to a certain extent have to accept the reality of sharing downloads, because there isn't going to be a sudden wave of consciousness. But it's certainly frustrating. There are solutions if a band wants to try to make a living from music - making live shows a priority, actively looking for licensing, creating packaging with artwork that is worth owning, etc.

I mean, if the music was meant to be free, why would they choose to sell it in the first place?
That answers a question I asked a long time ago, and thank you for that. So why download anything? (There are long threads about this on ILM, btw.)
― Gilbert O'Sullivan (kenan), Tuesday, 28 March 2006 06:38 (nineteen years ago)
1. Downloading and sampling individual tracks makes me more likely to buy the album -- or even if it's not a specific album, it increases my interest in music in general, refines my tastes, etc. -- which will then lead me to buy more stuff. I bought things like the first Suicide album, the first Stone Roses album, the New Order singles collection after reading some Pitchfork lists (like Best Albums of the '80s or whatever) and downloading sample songs that sounded interesting. Downloading has made me more interested in the rock canon than I ever was, because it's made me feel more a part of it, more invested in it. I never used to buy old albums -- now I do.
2. I write about music, and hopefully my enthusiasm will encourage other people to go out and support the industry by buying the stuff I champion, even if I haven't bought it myself. Most writers don't like to think of themselves as promotional whores, and I would never want to change the way I write to become more of one, but it's a moral comfort to think that the industry might look favorably upon me for at least contributing to the discourse about a certain artist or record. (Although Renee assures me that this argument wouldn't hold water in court for a second.)

And even so -- You're still tied to a model where you go out and buy music. That's not the only model. That's what I'm saying. Fewer and fewer people adhere to that model. You cannot fight this. It's a different business.
Don't feel alone. Newspapers are in the same predicament. They are either going to find a way to make me pay for their content or die, and unless its in the train seat next to me, I do not buy newspapers. I go online and get the same news elsewhere. Does this make me immoral? It's not my job to keep newspapers alive, even though I view them as an important resource. Thinking that I alone will make a difference in their fate is silliness. It's not like voting, where every voice counts. It's more like arguing against the moon's influence on the sea.
And so with downloading. Go ahead and choose not to steal music, fine, great. But don't imagine that the world in which this kind of decision matters is not falling behind you very quickly.

But my justification is exactly what I said before. Radio, the FCC, media, giant record company conglomerates have not upheld their end of the bargain. They leased the public airwaves, but have only used them for their own financial benefit; they have not sued them for the benefit of the public. Therefore, I'm trying to ruin them financially. Or at least hurt them enough to send them a message.
Now, this obviously fails when you talk about independent artists, but I really think that given the complete lack of support from radio and media and giant record company conglomerates of music that isn't carefully calculated to result in sales, independent music's only hope is word-of-mouth buzz. You get that by getting your music out to trend setting types and getting them excited about it so they talk about it on message boards and in Stylus and on Pitchfork. Then you sell t-shirts at shows where you also get a percentage of the door. This funds the indie rockers next musical release, wash, rinse, repeat.
The people who really lose in all of this are independent record store owners, and this is where I have my biggest qualms. I could give a tin shit if Tower Records or Best Buy collapses in on itself, but it never will because they are diversified into other products. Small record stores might not have that capability. They end up having to rely on used CD sales, and the sale of vinyl (note: I don't buy very many CDs anymore, but I will cough up $$$$$ for attractively packaged vinyl. Since I already have a high-quality, portable version of the music, now I want something solid and shiny and pretty to hold in my hand and show off to house guests.) and it seems like they are kind of into comic books and little action figures now, too.
So, I really think Kenan is right in that this is the formation of a new economy. I'm not saying, John, that you should stop buying CDs. If that goes against your morals, then dear lord, I'm not going to talk you out of it. I think it's specious reasoning to say you buy CDs for moral reasons and then shop at Tower Records, since you're not really doing anything accept supporting a system that's immoral and broken to begin with (unless you are a big fan of giant corporate monopolies and robber baron capitalism) but if you're buying CDs at shows or you're shopping at independent record stores, what you’re saying makes sense to me from a “voting with your dollar” perspective.
If you really don’t care about financially supporting musicians or small businesses, then I think Kenan’s on to something about this just being a habit. We step outside the confines of our US economic system every day – libraries, barter, burning mix CDs for people, taping music off the radio (okay that one is a throw back but everybody who was musically cognizant in the 80s and used a mono cassette player with a little handle pushed up against a speaker to tape songs, throw your hands in the air), borrowing things, fixing things instead of buying new things, shopping at thrift stores… All those things fall outside what capitalism and growth economies think people should do.
I think that's all.

Ultimately, I would rather spend money on music than 1) liquor 2) clothes 3) gadgets 4) virtually everything but food, since I also enjoy spending money on good food. I guess I must enjoy the act of purchasing the music and the sense of ownership that gives me. It's really sort of pathetic when I look at it that way, but I've never been a musician and this is my geeky little way of joining in on the fun.

At my level of the game anyway - in a teeny tiny indie band - I would love for people to put my band's songs on mix cds and play our mp3s on radio shows. I just want people to hear us. But I have a feeling that once our cd comes out this summer, I might start thinking a bit differently. I mean, for once we actually have to try to sell cds - we can't just give them away - because other people (and other people's dollars) are involved.
In totally random news, here is a Hint from Sarah:You know those cheapie cheapo necklaces you bought at Target and the like that were supercute for about a summer and then tarnished into grossness from summer sweat? Someone at my ANTM group Sunday mentioned that you can wash them in just regular liquid dish soap. So this morning I took a bird necklace I love (from Urban 0utfitters a few years ago ha ha), soaked it in a teacup with soap and water, dried it with a paper towel and... voila! It looks new again.

Without getting into a whole thing about dl'ing music, I will say that:
1) I generally think of it as the "try before you buy" model, which of course results in not liking many things enough to buy them.
2) I buy cds as I can afford them, provided there's actually shit I'm interested in.
3) I love love love buying cds at shows. They're usually cheaper and all/most of the money goes to the artist, often at a time when they could use it.
4) I feel guilty that I still haven't bought Lil' Wayne's last album yet, considering that I listened to my downloaded version all the time.

It's temp-to-hire. It will go on for at least a couple of months, and likely after that, since I can't see them doing away with this position. My fear, though, is that they will invent some "policy" that prevents them from hiring from a temp agency, and I will have to spend the last week here training my replacement. But that's the most grim scenario, and I don't want to think about it.

Jenny OTM about indie record stores. The only time I feel remorse is when I remember that Hard Boiled needs my money. Otherwise, as a "musician" (cough cough), I'm with Sarah. Take my music, please.
Kenan: you're right, defrauding hospitals is probably a bad idea, and contributes in a small way to why health care is so expensive and sucky. But I can definitely sympathize with your position: I've been a contract employee since July, and was told I'd be full-time in three months. Also, listen to Laurel.

Oh, I was running out of time, but two things that really irk me about downloading music are 1) when people leak albums before their release dates (although sometimes I think that's on purpose to generate buzz); and 2) when people leak out unfinished versions of records. That would be like if somebody published a story I wrote before I revised it, and that's just wrong. I mean, I can see people being curious about the process, but that more than anything to me shows disrespect for the musician as artist.
I promise to always buy FF music! Also, I buy most of my CDs directly from the bands at shows. There's something very, very satisfying about handing the bass player $10 in exchange for the CD. Or, more often, a t-shirt.
God, I love indie rock t-shirts.

I tend to feel the same way about our health care system that I do about the giant media congolmerates. Something has failed miserably, and the legislature needs to TCB, but they are afraid to because it's such a contentious subject and it's basically the voters against the giant corporations with lobbysists and lots of CASHOLA and our government has become ineffective because of its enslavement to campaign contributions and special interest groups so we the people need to BREAK IT COMPLETELY to spur someone to act. Therefore, take as much advantage of the system as you possibly can, because it's not like you will be well-treated and well-cared for if you play by the rules.

I am not totally anti-downloading. I download quite a bit as it is. I think I just want to limit what I'm able to download, so as to force me to act responsibly. There's also an aesthetic position embedded here, too, in the savoring what you do download instead of going on a rampage and downloading bands' entire catalogues and never quite knowing when you're going to get to them.
I have fewer qualms with things YSIs and mp3 blogs because it feels like just another way of sharing music with friends, which people have been doing for decades -- I still have a whole collection of cassettes featuring albums dubbed from friends (cf. the 1994-era Stick Around for Joy b/w Little Earthquakes tape that I mentioned at Tin Lizzie) -- but file-sharing networks like Slsk feel more like unlocked warehouses.

Julia sent me a good article about Whole Foods and why the organic claims it makes are suspicious (pretty much what Otto said up there) but I haven't had time to really read and respond the way I want to yet. (Sorry, Julia!!!!!11)
I really struggle with Whole Foods because they are the only place that I know of around here that sells some things that are very important to me, like environmentally friendly cleaning products, but they also suck in so many ways. Chicago is pretty lame for good markets - where are the co-ops??? Greensboro, NC had a co-op for fuck's sake.
Edgewater Fruit Market has pretty great conventional produce at cheap prices, although I do like the tast of some organic stuff better - apples, carrots, bananas, grapes, and tomatoes definitely come to mind. But I can't afford it and I often don't have time to go to more than one store to do my shopping since none of those places are located near my school, my home, my work, or my train stop. I get organic meat and dairy at the regular grocery store, so that is cool.
So what I really want is to open a co-op market in the loop, off the Argyle train station, or on Clark and say, Carmen.
I had Potbelly's for lunch. It was OH KAY.
Also, speaking of albums, Gary Numan Replicas is a GREAT study album.

I also hate the chaos. Sandwiches should NOT be stressful. Sandwiches should be the best part of any day. I also like to have a moment to reach the menu board before somebody starts yelling at me for my order. And the guy who put my sandwich together said, "THIS IS THE BEST ROAST BEEF SANDWICH I'VE MADE ALL DAY!!!!!!!" and I said, "I appreciate your lunch-related enthusiasm" in the most deadpan voice I could muster and he smiled and said, "THAT'S MY JOB!!!!!" and he reminded me of the excited guy who works at Flingers in Office Space and I kind of didn't want to eat any more after that.

Anybody got any links on what "organic" farming really looks like? This also explains why Dominicks has a bazillion different kinds of "organic" food all over the plae now.
I'd like to add another criticism to the "organic" food movement as it's current being pushed on the public: Organic cookies are still fattening and full of gross sugar and probably a ton of chemicals and artificial colors and preservatives*. It just happens to also be made with organic flour or whatever and so qualifies as sufficiently organic to be labelled as such. Organic != good for you.
*That's a hunch - I haven't researched it.

Organic cookies are still fattening and full of gross sugar and probably a ton of chemicals and artificial colors and preservatives*.i don't know the particulars of this either, but if this is true, it would be fucking preposterous (about the chemicals/artificial stuff--sugar is a given).

I did not realize that. I mean, I knew I was getting screwed all last year, doing professional work and getting paid $12/hr, but I didn't know that I was actually getting paid significantly less than I can reasonably be expected to live on. I just thought I was bad with money.

yeah, when you factor in how much the store manager makes it brings that bottom line right up. at wfm you start at $8/hr. after 90 days you get bumped up to $8.50 then it's up to your supervisor if/when you get a raise. and even then it's dependant on how much $$$ is in your departments budget. the lower the employees get paid the bigger the bonus for supervisors.
― otto midnight (otto midnight), Tuesday, 28 March 2006 20:05 (nineteen years ago)
But my natural skepticism makes me think it's got the manager's pay worked into the equation.
Here are labelling guidelines for organic food. Julia, I must be wrong about O Organics cookies, etc., or else they couldn't be labelled organic: http://www.ams.usda.gov/nop/ProdHandlers/LabelTable.htm

The "an" is thrown in not just for silent h's. The H is an aspirated consonant, and it could be argued that it justifies the use of the word an. It would be argued by JERKS ON THE INTERNET WHO HAVE NO LIFE AND WHO NEED TO GET BACK TO WORK AND WHOSE NAMES MIGHT BE JESSE.

Eric, what's the deal with this? Can you send me info?
Okay, update from the record store (I'm friends with the owners, so that's why I can be on their computer. OOh, aren't I soooo cool? God, what an asshole!):
Their shipment is delayed until tomorrow, so no Ghostface or T.I. (although I had already decided against getting the latter just yet) today. They don't have any used copies of Rubies and no new either due to the shipment, but I'm fine with my burned copy for now. So what does that leave us with? Well, one of the guys just gave me a copy of The Low End Theory (that I was thinking I might want to get) that has no case, so I got it for free. My one actual question in this rambling mess is: should I spring for a new copy of Tago Mago? I only have a burned copy, and I don't think it's the remastered version, either. So is this worth the $16? I'm selling a bunch of stuff, so I won't have to actual pay cash out of pocket.
Okay, I know, it's like, "What the fuck is he talking about?" but someone just tell me anyway.
Sorry, my blood sugar is fucked up right now.

The other one (Observing Systems) is newer and way more organic. It sounds like a jazz album but really really restrained and beat-oriented. The horn arrangements and melodies are great, and the electronic stuff is mostly interludes between tracks. It pushes my

I'm pretty sure there's a menu option in iTunes that will let you convert a different format mp3. I've done that with AAC files before (although it obv won't let you convert Protected AAC files). Also with whatever the Garageband format is.

Some thoughts:* Julia, that view is amazing! When do you move? Do you know yet? Let me know! Also, have you seen the American version of the Office yet? Do you want to check it out sometime? (on netflix??)* Eric, yes, it was the Hung Up song. I like it. It's good for DANCING.* As a vegetarian who knows nothing about this blood/bone in the soil practice, I can only rationalize that the blood/bone was leftover from meat cows, etc and would have been thrown in a dump anyway. I'd prefer for all the parts of the animal to be put to use.* I used to really enjoy going to Whole Foods, but never for full on groceries. Now, I sort of enjoy it, but mostly I just love the salad/deli section in the back. I have been enjoying Trader Joe's a lot lately instead.

John and I were roommates. I came home from class and John was having a party. He said that he didn't really want to have a party, but these people (all big burly jock looking dudes) just showed up and now they wouldn't leave. I said I would be glad to kick them out, and I went about preparing to do just that (I don't know what I had to do to prepare, but whatever). I walked into the living room, and John was dragging a light post from outside up the stairs. He said something like, "I just thought this would be fun to bring to the party!" By now the house was packed full of jocks.
I freaked out and told John that the one agreement we made when we moved in together was NO PARTIES DURING THE SEMESTER, and that I knew he liked parties but that we didn't even know who these people were and what was he doing hanging out with a bunch of jokcs and that I was going to call the police, and that would get rid of them.
I opened my cell phone and dialed 9-1 and then said, "OKAY LISTEN UP GET OUT OF THIS HOUSE. I AM CALLING THE POLICE AND THEY ARE ON THE WAY OVER."
Then I woke up.

K. clearly has no idea what he's talking about regarding iTunes or m4as, which behave JUST LIKE mp3s and are not proprietary at all (or at least, are no more proprietary than mp3s -- you need to pay the people who invented the mp3 to include their encoding software in your program, which is why iTunes was the first legit free mp3 encoder). They're just a smaller-sized, better sounding codec. The ones you download from iTunes Music Store have restrictions on them, but you are allowed to burn them to CDs (something like 10 times). And presumably re-rip them to mp3s.
Anyway, I hope you are all having as lovely a day in Chicago as it is in Portland.

Dude, I know the feeling. The exact feeling. I'm on, like, a shared electric line with my neighbor, and a shared gas line. After four months I finally got an electric bill, after hoping for months that someone else had been paying it. It was over $400. I just paid it, instead of trying to tell my neighbors that they owed half of it. I mean, fuck, I'm the asshole who wasn't paying his bills.

Also, the asshole who was running electric heaters all winter, because his furnace didn't work, even though he had gas. Landlord didn't do shit about that all winter. I suffered a little, but nothing major. At any rate, I'm sure I'm mostly 75% responsible for that electric bill, and next month I'll split it with the neighbors.

I didn't get bills after I moved in here either. The power company is blaming the post office. I have no one to blame but myself, though, since I should have called and asked about the fact that I wasn't getting bills. I just went with it, on a wing and a prayer. "Maybe they'll never notice!" etc.
Being irresponsible is stressful and difficult, and don't let anyone tell you different.
Also stressful: getting two hours of sleep and then being woken up by your cat. I went through stages. First, I wanted her dead. Then I got up and fed her. Then I tried to sleep again, but to no avail, so I wanted her dead again. Then I got up and posted on ILX.

How is electricity so fucking cheap here? During one month last summer I ran my window unit A/C for 2 weeks solid, no turning it off at all and my bill was under $60 and that was the biggest bill I've ever had. Usually they run around $20. This month is $29 and I have been running a space heater off and on.
In NC I never paid less than $45 for a full month. And at places where I had an electric oven I paid more on average.

I often get the I LOVE CHICAGO OMG feeling.
Otto, get a little dog! I would love a little dog but cannot spend appropriate time with one now so I would like to live vicariously through you.
Last night I dreamed that I was being stalked by someone who would steal small personal items from our house, and then push them through our mail slot (we do not have a mail slot). I would come home to find my comb pushed through the mail slot, or my purse book, or a slipper. Finally one day I came home and found two combs pushed through the mail slot (we have two combs so that wasn't weird). There were strips of paper that cover the adhesive backing of maxi-pads tied into bows and taped all over the bathroom door, and something written all over the bathroom door that I was too scared to stay and read because THE STALKER WAS INSIDE THE HOUSE.
I ran outside the apartment, which had turned into a hotel room, and locked it behind me and then ran around trying to find my stepfather, crying because as I shut the door I could hear Sample meowing and I was sure that the stalker was going to hurt my cat.

I feel sorry for Toons (one of a million nicknames I have for Pepper) because she sleeps on the same spot on the bed every night and I kick her off repeatedly. I don't do it on purpose. I just stretch a leg out and the WHAM! wake up to the sound of her hitting the floor. Then I do it several more times every night.

This reminds me-- I spoke with Courtney yesterday. In her job as buyer (for a mortgage company) she got to spend most of one day researching and purchasing feminine product disposal bins for her offices' bathrooms. (They already had bins but one woman complained that when she put her pad in the current ones she invariably touched other pads.)
I would like to be a buyer. She gets to shop online all day long!

HaHA!
As for Mary Janes, I don't really wear them much anymore because I got self-conscious about feeling infantile. I suppose I could, but there are enough other shoes that make me happy. Then again, I've been wearing black Keds (with white stitching) since I was about 10 years old, so don't listen to a word I say. This year maybe I'll get RED! Or another pair of black ones. I had Vans for a while there too. Summer shoes are the worst.

Chris, too late! Although I'm starting to question why I'm writing when I rarely write something I find interesting beyond the day or two after I wrote it, I am committed to, at the very least, writing a 15-20 page thesis full of poems, a draft of which is due in two weeks.

-Finding a Job with Health Insurance (Will I like it? Will it be boring? Can I stand it if it is?)
-Having No Money, like now (to pay for food, drink, improv classes, and future rent, and music)
-Having a Bad Transcript :(
-Writing these poems
-Finishing my other classes (I currently have 3 incompletes) in time
I am living in a constant state of panic attack.

Remember Dave-san, you're young enough that going without insurance for a few years isn't a tremendously stupid idea unless you already have health conditions that require a doctor's care. I didn't have insurance until I was 27, and clinics got me by just fine. Wax-on, wax off.

Destination blinds on the trains have another destination sign for the Orange Line: Ford City. The Ford City Mall is about two miles south of Midway Airport, and it was originally planned to be the line's terminus. An Alternatives Analysis is currently underway for the Orange Line extenstion to Ford City.
Oh. I think that info is outdated though, because it sounded like a sure thing in the last article I read.

It's certainly better than LaGuardia or Kennedy where the train does not go anywhere near the airport.
What I'm confused about is how they will lay extra tracks when the tunnels on the blue line are just wide enough for one track. I will research further now that I'm home.

Ok, you got me there.
My Mom called me tonight and told me that my little brother (finally) came out to her. Good for him. That takes balls. I'm proud of him.
She even seemed fairly ok with it. I mean, no hysterics, anyway, no "Where did I go wrong?!", none of that classic stuff. Just a declaration that she'll love him no matter what, and an obvious attempt to be cool about it. I'm proud of her, too.
She's going to be fine, and he's going to be better than ever.
I love my little brother.

I'm jealous because the only family I got to have my big Official Coming Out with was my brother. The rest of the family I either don't really know that well and my immediate family doesn't talk about anything. (When my brother's wife was cheating (sort of) and they almost got divorced he talked to me about it but with my parents it was like, "So...how's work?" not "Why are you 25 lbs skinnier and your wife is never home?" They knew sort of, but we certainly never talked about it.)
I would have like to have been able to tell my parents. Instead they found out I had been calling m4m chat numbers and then my dad one time said he wished that I would get married. I told him that wasn't going to happen. End of story.

We're not too crazy. We have been. But mostly my dad's family is just typically Midwestern ultra stoics. After the time I was 5 or so my parents and I never said "I love you" until I was 23 and they moved out of state. Even then it was very awkward. Like, "Ok, well, I 'love you.'" And then we hugged. And then everyone needed a shower.
Now we say ILY when we get off the phone. My brother thought it was funny when I told him that. Funny haha and funny weird.
Was your dad's brother gay? Or just AIDS-y?

“Chicago is the only city in the U.S. that provides rapid transit service to both of its major airports,” said Chicago Transit Board Chairman Valerie B. Jarrett. “CTA express rail service to both O’Hare and Midway will make it even more convenient for customers to travel between the airports and downtown.”
CTA President Frank Kruesi noted, “Variables such as time of day and weather can influence how travelers get to the airport. By introducing this fast, reliable, consistent express service, we hope more customers will recognize the CTA as their best option for airport travel. Not only will customers save time, they also will avoid the hassles of traffic and paying for gasoline and parking.”

Currently, 2,400 cocksucking air travelers use the O’Hare station and 2,000 pussylicking air travelers use the Midway Station on an average weekday. Trips on the Blue Line between O’Hare and downtown take an average of 42 whoremongering minutes and trips on the Orange Line between Midway and downtown take an average of 30 buggering minutes. The new express trains will take less than 30 motherfucking minutes to get to O’Hare and 20 goddamn minutes to Midway.

T]hey are served supper, both get blind drunk, both become unreasonable, one vomits in the other's mouth, the one swallows the stuff, then the other vomits into the mouth of the first, now he swallows, and so forth and so on, and they finally collapse into the supper's debris, that is to say, into the filth they've just splashed all over the floor. And then I am sent into the fray, for my co-worker has not an ounce of strength left, indeed she has lost consciousness. But this, however, is the crucial moment from the libertine's point of view: I find him prone, his prick straight and hard as a crowbar; I seize his instrument, [he] stammers, swears, draws me to him, sucks my mouth, and discharges like a bull, the while twisting and turning and continuing to wallow in his ordure.

so my boss decided to have an impromptu Employee Appreciation Day (aka OPEN BAR) at some place nearby after work. because today is me and some other guy's last day, and some other other guy's 1 year anniversary with the company. nice gesture, sure, but i don't really like anyone i work with and today is the first Critical Mass of the spring, which means lots of GISOBDBs. Plus, I'm just going to have hang around and pretend to be pally with everyone and make them care that i'm misty about leaving a job i never liked in the first place.

I have so much catching up to do on this thread. I'll do better today, I promise.
Eric, We tried to get DD to play with us, but apparently he is a bit overwhelmed with his recent press and is taking time off to write, etc etc. But then another band we're playing with in May at SCHUBADUBAS was trying to get him on that same bill too, so we'll see what happens.
Kevin, will I see you tonight?

1. Did someone create a YSI of the Dresden Dolls and if so, is it still alive so I can send it to someone else?
2. Hilarious Destroyer story: I decided to listen to Destoyer on the train this morning. I have big fat clumsy fingers and sometimes overshoot the bands I want on my little touchpad mp3 player (the manual controls are what I miss most about my old, giant, battery sucking iPod) so I didn't realize it, but I had put on Deerhoof - The Runner's Four instead and about two songs in, I thought, "This sounds nothing like Destroyer and is actually quite irritating!" and then I went to pick something different and WHOOPS Deerhoof, not Destroyer.
So I put Destroyer Rubies on and wow! That's a great record! And I was rocking out and ran into my friend Mike (some of you might remember him as the law school chum I have also run into at the MIA show and Intonation last year) and he had on headphones and I said, "What are you listening to?" and he said... DESTROYER!!!!
Okay, that was about as exciting as that boring ass story John told upthread, but I thought it was neat. And he's the person I want to share the Dresden Dolls with.
THE END.

I was thinking about shoes today, because if I saw a grown up up through old age wearing Chucks I would think nothing of it. So maybe I'm okay with mary janes. I also have decided that rather than buy new shoes right away, I will take my old ones to the shoe repair place and see if they can fix them up nice so I can wear them for a couple more years. Finally, I am wearing Pro Keds, which are very Chuck-like, and it's supposed to rain later today and I have therefore broken Kenan's cardinal shoe rule.

ALLEYCAT LANDSHARK BIKE ATTACK
I propose to organize a quick 'n' dirty alleycat bike race that ends at Ronny's for our rock band show. Entry fee would be the same as cover, and your spokecard gets you free admission at the door. Race would probably start at around 8.30ish, dropping most participants at the door just in time for the fake fictions.
Pros: I can guarantee at least 10-15 participants, potentially quite a few more. This equals more ppl at our show, primarily in the form of hipster bike dorks.
Cons: Timing and manpower. While I'm pretty sure I can drum up interest (THANKS INTERNET), getting ppl to volunteer at checkpoints might be tricky. I'd say Sharks could do it, but we obviously can't, since we'll be soundchecking, loading in (unless we do that earlier, just to get everything dialed). Ideally, I'd start the race somewhere in the hood and then come back to Ronny's while it's running its course.
Other con: no prizes, just rock and roll. Well, I MIGHT be able to scare up a few gift certificates from Yojimbo's and Boulevard Bikes, but otherwise: bupkus. I doubt that would deter most people, though.

The sound and crowd at the Abbey both were fine last night (Gossip show) - I'd only been to mellower or less packed shows before - much better than the Bottle.
There's a fairly inexpensive Italian place down on Printers Row with outdoor seating, and some other other places down there (Eduardo's, etc.) have tables outside as well. And Cosi across from the Art Institute has tables outside too. Ah, al fresco!

all things being equal, with a competant person running the board, i'd prefer a show at the bottle or even the double door (depending who's playing and where i'm standing). sub-t is decent if you're downstairs center and in front of the stairway leading to the street.

Also (from earlier): haha, "boyfriendlessness."
(I was reading David Crystal's Words, Words, Words on the train, despite it being sort of an elementary "aren't words fun?" book that I prob would've appreciated most when I was like 10.)
And no, I'm not at a bar -- I was just referring to what happened the last time someone made an off-handed remark about casual sex in my presence.

See, but when women do it, it's often referred to as the "walk of shame." If I were single and sleeping around casually, I would totally adopt "walk of victory" because that's clearly better.
I ate at Hannah's Bretzels today, too! Only much earlier than you people. I had a "veggie bomb" on super ultra muti-grain bread with gruyere cheese and some almonds. VERY GOOD.
― Nutsy the Squirrel (pullapartgirl), Friday, 31 March 2006 17:29 (nineteen years ago)
exactly. my younger sister wrote out a list of what differentiates a walk of shame from a walk of victory. it was actually pretty hilarious, particularly the one about her walking down the street with a big sign saying "GUESS WHO I JUST SLEPT WITH".
i should call her.

My new least favorite fashion trend, found mostly among the frat boys, are jeans, button down shirts untucked, and... wait for it...
Taboggan hats. Or toques. Or just "knit caps."

Amanda, I might augment with some fave tracks of my own from more recent things as well, as this primer only covers the first generation of Wu stuff (first two group albums and all the solos in between).

Wu Tang or RATM
Eh, six of one, half dozen of the other. Wu-Tang was certainly funnier. They encouraged the audience to "put their hands up" in the Wu-Tang symbol (hold your hands in front of you, palms forward, with the tips of your thumbs together and your fingers together and slightly out-turned to make a big "W") if we ever found ourselves in trouble, which did not work to the eliminate long beer lines. It was a huge outdoor arena show in fucking Camden so it wasn't going to be that thrilling no matter how good the bands were.

I truly, madly, deeply* regret to say that I cannot make the Shrks/FkFctns show on the 8th... my sister comes back from Africa two days prior and I have agreed to drive her up to the Yoop that weekend.
If anyone wants to meet up for drinks tonight I am making preliminary plans with some of my peoples. As of right now I am guessing Underbar/Hungry Brain/etc... Details will follow once we get sick of moving.

I was trying to find the YSI link to the Dresden Dolls to send it to a school acquaintance because we were both listening to Destroyer on our own personal Personal Mp3 Devices when we simultaneous exited two different elevators. My next obstacle after finding the YSI link was finding his email address, which I did by asking two people that I thought were his friends. Turns out, they are no longer friends for some mysterious and, I am guessing, ultimately boring reason. I'm still holding out slim hope for blood-drinking cult or maybe he's a Mormon or an arsonist or something.

Trios = Restaurant Club tradition wherein during the first week after the anniversary dinner, RC members split up into groups of three and go to some of the best-rated restaurants of the past year. The catch is that you don't know who you'll be dining with until you get there. (There's a mastermind who sets it all up and makes the reservations.) So I'm having dinner at Menagerie on Belmont at 7 pm, and then meeting up with the other trios at Village Tap afterwards. Although someone told me that there might only be one other trio this year.
You're welcome to come to the V.T., if you're not otherwise busy.

I don't get it. I did just realize that Gear lives in L.A., though, not unlike a famous (though defunct?) shoe company.
Restaurant Club = A club started by the lead singer of my band way back in the halcyon days of spring of 2000 as a way of keeping in touch with friends and giving people something to do on Friday nights. Every week, we go to a different restaurant, as chosen by someone in the club. I don't go every week, but usually once or twice a month. It's been happening for six years now, without ever missing a week, so this will be Restaurant Club #313.

Hey guys -- here's a news flash. You may want to sit down for this:
I have very poor impulse control.
Yes, I know it's hard to believe, but here is a case in point. I went to the pawn shop to look at bikes. They were shit. So I went to the regular bicycle store and ended up with this thing.
http://giganticmag.com/images/ilx/new_bike.jpg
Beautiful. Also, way more bike than I need. Also, way more bike than I've ever owned before. It's hard to adjust to. It's so light and responsive, it's really a whole different machine than my 2000-pound cross bike, which is still out of commission. You can feel every pebble in the road with this thing, which is a really good feeling.
You know my justification was that the money I would save on CTA rides would pay for a cheap bike pretty quickly. But now... that really doesn't work anymore. So I have a new justification: I was going to break down and buy an iPod soon, and now I have a reason not to. You can't ride to work and listen to an iPod. I mean, unless you're an idiot.

We went to the frat party, where they did NOT play Beyonce's "Crazy in Love," but where there was quite a lot of the making out.
Guys, I feel so successful, right now. This is DEFINITELY the drunkest I have posted to ILX, AND I have done it after meeting totally real people in real life in my real neighborhood. Totally amazing night, when I will think back on it. Thanks for being so real, guys. I will appreciate this so much in the future, esp. when I'm gone. I.E. which is better: Tago Mago or Future Days?

Robert Pollard was: Okay. I really don't know much of his solo stuff and I was feeling like shit (I'm getting a cold or maybe, by now, totally have one) and I was tired so we left at 11:30. I did see Renee though, so that was very exciting!
Maybe six, seven years ago (that's so weird because that was a long time ago and yet I feel younger and more alert and aware and happy NOW than I did during the time-frame that I'm referencing that it's almost like I'm talking about someone else, but I am digressing) my friend Ric and I randomly decided to crash a frat party. They wouldn't give us beer, and I was already so drunk, I kept going up to groups of girls doing anything to get the attention and approval of these boys and saying, "It doesn't have to be this way! You don't have to center your lives around what these guys think is attractive and worthwhile! You can follow your own heart and you'll be so much happier!"
I just remember some big dude coming over to ask what the problem was and then Ric dragging me back outside.

10 + 1 Observations on Moving
1. My legs hurt2. Our couch was much easier to get out of the house than it was to get in3. The cat was PISSED4. Beer tastes really good when you're drinking it while moving5. It felt great to drive a truck again, even if was a Uhaul6. Evidently we have another cat I don't know about, judging by the amount of hair on our floor at the old place7. If you drop a cactus, do not try to make the save - just let it go8. Having actual cable and not just cable internet is kind of awesome9. During moving, ~10 hott hipster girls cruised by the place10. Letting people in and out of our building is still going to be a pain11. I really, really, really, really, reaaaaaaly need a shower

and now because my parents don't like me and caterers are evil, i think we'll be around on monday the 10th, jaymc didn't you say you had a gig that night? could we come? i'd like to meet some chicago ilxors, you guys seem fun.

Hi Colette -- yes, absolutely! The show is at Schubas, at the corner of Belmont and Southport. It starts at 8 PM, and we're second, so we'll prob go on around 9 PM.
Sorry, I don't know much about hotels in the area...

When I had the opportunity to go to the bar and look outside it was incredible. We have 40 foot windows in the lounge and seeing the skyscrapers lit up by the lightning was awesome (esp the Wrigley building).
I hope this continues all spring and summer.

Tomorrow Sayjal and I are going to see Awesome, I Fuckin' Shot That! at the Landmark at either 7:45 or 10. You wanna come?Awesome, I Fuckin' Shot That!
Inspired by concert video shot on a fan's cell phone, the Beastie Boys decided to document their October 2004 homecoming show at Madison Square Garden by distributing digicams to 50 audience members in strategic positions and editing their coverage into a kind of authorized bootleg. The resulting feature conveys the frenetic energy and first-person perspective of the concert experience (including bathroom breaks and annoying audience members). Eventually the shaky, grainy visuals grow tiresome, but director Nathaniel Hornblower (aka Beastie Boy Adam Yauch) keeps things lively with a variety of editing tricks and sly humor (the opening crawl spoofs Brian De Palma's Scarface, and there are lingering shots of Ben Stiller furiously attempting to rap). R, 90 min.
(The Universe wants me to go obviously as last week I started listening to the Beastie Boys again, then a coworker lent me a CD with Ill Communication in the case too, and then today I walked by the Landmark and saw the poster for this movie. Then I went and found Paul's Boutique, Hello Nasty and 5 Bouroughs, all 3 for $19*)

I mentioned "White Lines" to a friend who was unfamiliar with it. I was roundly looked at like I had sprouted a 2nd head for suggesting that these people (25-30might possibly be aware of 80's hip-hop. One person pulled a Jaymc and said, "Why would I be familiar with 80's hip-hop??"

BTW Does anyone know how to get StuffIt Deluxe to actually compress things? Because it is only compressing things to about 98% of their original size for me at the moment, which is pretty much useless to me since my #1 reason for downloading the Deluxe was to cut down the time it takes me to create YSIs.

2. Lack of engine turnover = day light savings (it's an hour earlier than the clock says) + "MOTTLED" weather
3. I have (yet another) terrible cold and I feel like a big bioterrorism bomb waiting to go off and destroy everything in my path.
4. I left my umbrella at my friends' house on the way far away west side and probably won't be over there again for a month. What a nice, wet walk to the train this morning! I think I'll buy one of those that won't turn inside out so I can start leaving quality umbrellas at various places around Chicago.
And now for a complaint:I have now rearranged my schedule twice for this little twit who claims to want to volunteer for Worker Justince, Inc. but who has once completely stood me up and now cancelled on me last minute. You know, I feel like shit, and yet I'm willing to stay away from my warm, soft, cat- and husband-filled home until 9 pm tonight to evangelize about worker justice because this was the one night this woman could meet me but she can't even send me an email when she has a major event that conflicts with something she's scheduled with me???? Screw her. I hope I am one day in a position to recommend her for a job or something so I can tell the potential hirer that she's irresponsible and flaky.
Provided I even remember who she is or what she's done, which I probably will have forgotten by the end of the week, much less by the time I'm in any sort of hiring position.

So to your second point, I would say, yes if you haven't seen more than five minutes of ATHF, at least, you should give it another try. And as to your first, I think that Family Guy is different enough from the 15-minute Adult Swim cartoons that your feelings towards it won't necessarilly be indicitive of your feelings towards their other offerings.
Finally, Sealab, at least at the beginning, is not quite as absurd and random as ATHF. Harvey Birdman, my personal favorite, is even less absurd (although pretty fucking absurd) and offers pretty solid plots and story arcs and humor that revolves as much around old Hannah Barbara cartoons as it does around just throwing random shit up on the screen.
― Nutsy the Squirrel (pullapartgirl), Monday, 3 April 2006 14:21 (nineteen years ago)
The Simpsons are satirical more than absurdist. There are moments, but the Simpsons are usually weakest when they try to be absurd, whereas that's Family Guy's strength. "Tomacco" isn't absurd, there's commentary built into it. A parade whose theme is "The episode of Who's the Boss where Tony catches Angela in the shower"... that, my friend, is absurd. It's a refernce to pop culture, but more than that, it's a refernce to nothing. Hugo Ball would be proud.

No, that's the one where the go to India. That's a good one, too. But the Bizarro episode is the one where Elaine meets the bizarro world equivalent of Jerry, George, and Kramer. And it contains this favorite exchange:
E:"Bizarro Jerry?"J:"Yeah, like Bizarro Superman, Superman's exact opposite, who lives in the backwards Bizarro world. Up is down, down is up, he says hello when he leaves, goodbye when he arrives."
E:"Shouldn't he say badbye? Isn't that the opposite of goodbye?"
J:"No, it's still goodbye."
E:"Does he live underwater?"
J:"No."
E:"Is he black?"
J:"Look, just forget the whole thing."
