I think you are overestimating the crowds TTWS pulls. I would not see them again, but I am amused that you remember this thing I did from like 7? years ago.

I don't think so, no. But I did have neighbors comment on my drumming when I was a teenager. They enjoyed it, surprisingly.

Now that I met Took IRL I plan on making him my next of kin.

If your answer is that you've never owned or worn overalls, my question is why not?

It's 2020 and I live in a metropolitan area.

No, but if I did I would totally hide some nachos and moonshine.

I have a mixed relationship with that song. I like it, of course, but it also reminds me of my abusive ex (unrelated to the song itself, really). But I would still probably crank that shit.

Banana. But just a sucker punch.

I mean I think you can do this starting Monday in Alabama. And it won't be that unsafe for a few weeks, then it will be very unsafe but we won't realize it until 2-3 weeks after that when there's a huge spike in cases and deaths.

But I think probably summer most places will have restaurants open, but IDK if the reduced patronage will support chain restaurants enough to be open like they were. I think smaller restaurants actually will perform better (relatively), if they survive being closed for so long in the first place. But IDK I don't know anything at all about economics.

anyway, here's mine: how does it feel to have your questions threads long outlast & outperform the questions thread of our board foster father & overlooker Smashing JJ ?

Fantastic

smashingjj 04-25-2020 12:42 PM

is 'post' meant to be their first name or was Malone a phase where they're past now?

FoolofaTook 04-25-2020 12:43 PM

is that a question for reprise or are you just musing aloud?

smashingjj 04-25-2020 12:58 PM

would you, if you could, would you really rather be -

a sparrow or a snail
a hammer or a nail
a forest or a street

FoolofaTook 04-25-2020 01:07 PM

a river or a brook?
a cluckett or a took?

FoolofaTook 04-25-2020 01:07 PM

FlamingGlobes 04-25-2020 03:15 PM

I only remember the Toad the Wet Sprocket thing because we talked about having both gone to the same tour. I also saw them 7 years ago, and there were like 150 people there tops.

No overalls, though.

FlamingGlobes 04-25-2020 03:20 PM

The venue I saw them at does have a reserved section vs. GA. It's a bar section off to the side that is slightly raised and can fit 20 ish people. This is the same venue I once saw Alien Ant Farm at and, more recently, Soul Asylum and Local H. Because I am a cool person with refined taste ama.

Mine had more like 1000 people. 150 is pretty sad

I didn't even realize you were posting 7 years ago. My brain doesn't work that far back for social interactions. Only facts.

FlamingGlobes 04-25-2020 03:26 PM

I've only been posting for 4/5 years lol. It was just something we talked about at some point. Sorry, I remember things!

FlamingGlobes 04-25-2020 03:27 PM

P sure the venue capacity is 500 at best. Soul Asylum/Local H had a moderately better turn out, even in the midst of an ice/slush storm on a Monday night.

reprise85 04-25-2020 04:22 PM

so i worked on this project

nope, i made my own out of old fat pants though. they are not nice or distinct enough to be any kind of relic of this period, though

i just ate an omelette (eggs, ham, mushrooms, spinach, mozzarella, cheddar). it was pretty good. i eat this probably 4-5 times a week, sometimes with american cheese instead or no ham. very rarely i will use sausage instead.

this is my cat Layla. I got her in Feb 2013. she is very sweet, always wants to cuddle. meows a lot. doesn't clean her butt for some reason. likes treats and playing with toys. basically perfect except the butt thing. she also has keratoconjunctivitis so she always has dry eyes and they create excess mucus, so she needs eye drops and eye cleanings regularly.
