stupid pandora.com recommending impulse buying...

who the hell are the decemberists, and why the hell did i just buy one of their albums after listening to half of one song?

one irresponsible spender + internet access + musical recommendations = no good.

If it helps - I think the Decemberists are worth a listen. I'd buy an album if the hubby would quit spending our music money on odd artistic albums composed of the sounds of bushmen slapping people with gardening tools.

in that case, i will listen to it. my decision has nothing to do with the fact that i already bought the album. hehe.

the english call that "ye olde tyme musyck" if they're really trying to impress us colonials. it is referred to in the declaration of independence. i paraphrase:

we hold these truths be self-evident... that we need to get the fuck away from these crazy europeans. we're sick of all the talk of "cricket" and "crumpets" and "stickywicket" or whatever. also, the music sucks for the most part. AND THEY DON'T EVEN PUT ANY BAKING SODA IN THEIR MUFFINS! stupid, delicious, flat muffins. also, that's not "football", europe. that's stupid soccer. WE DECLARE WAR ON STUPID ENGLAND!

so, there you have it. the founding fathers hate english music. and soccer.
