today, all at the same store:

"Mark my words, in two years no one will remember Dizzee Rascal."

"The Rolling Stones haven't made a classic album in, like, 15 years."

"Look, I'm just pissed off because he gets to play music over the PA all the time, and his choices suck. I mean, Arab Strap? Fuck, man."

"For some reason this Dokken greatest hits CD doesn't include 'Kiss of Death', which is bullshit."

"That Neo-Nazi who threatened me after I didn't buy his scratched CDs was back today with some black dude. I don't think his story checks out."

i agree with all those statements.

― Pablo Cruise (chaki), Thursday, 18 March 2004 01:36 (twenty-two years ago)

He was definitely right about the Dokken CD.

You can't really argue with the Rolling Stones statement either, in fairness.

The dizzee rascal one, could be basing a theory on "Credit to the nation" (who?)

"Thing is with Paypal, it just doesn't give you cash in hand."

(Nooo, you don't say.)

"i can stand less"

That Dokken comment totally just made me laugh out loud.

― Broheems (diamond), Thursday, 18 March 2004 20:30 (twenty-two years ago)

Gear!, were they all said by the same person?

― Nick H (Nick H), Friday, 19 March 2004 00:54 (twenty-two years ago)

All the record clerks here either like REALLY BORING INDIE or Misfits/Motorhead/Turbonegro. I don't listen to them.

― LITTLE LAMB [Jon Williams] (ex machina), Friday, 19 March 2004 00:55 (twenty-two years ago)

They were said by a couple of different people. I can't ague with the Rolling Stones comment really, but I'd amend it to 30 years, because Steel Wheels isn't "classic".

― Gear! (Gear!), Friday, 19 March 2004 01:02 (twenty-two years ago)

Steel Wheels and Voodoo Lounge are both classic.

― Broheems (diamond), Friday, 19 March 2004 01:03 (twenty-two years ago)

i agree with pablo cruise

shouldn't this thread spawn another - D&D conversations overheard? hours of amusement could be had there

― Menelaus Darcy (Menelaus Darcy), Friday, 19 March 2004 03:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Could we do "banal D&D conversations" instead?

― Casuistry (Chris P), Friday, 19 March 2004 03:59 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh like a Beholder could do that
