Random Monday Thoughts

nobody@vox.com(Monica) — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 22:55:36 -0400

Running around a green field with a dress on while singing sounds like a great idea to me.

I have this unexplainable desire to watch The Sound of Music . . .and visit Austria. . and Germany. . . and Romania . . .and ~~practically~~ all of Europe, like, this weekend. Oh, if only I had a sugadaddy.

Finally Justice

nobody@vox.com(jennytales) — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 21:47:12 -0400

They say two wrongs don't make a right. I believe that's true. O.J. is finally right where he belongs. I know African-americans and other minorities have faced and continue to face many injustices in this country because of racism and prejudice. This is wrong. I believe some who supported O.J.'s aquittal in 1995 believed it was somehow payback for all those injustices. This is wrong too. I guess if you get away with murder, you become deluded into thinking you can break other laws in society as well.

Team Genius

http://weheartmus...

The fellas (and ladies. Sorry ladies) in Team Genius sound like giant dorks. Their loose-cannon...

Team Genius still sound like big fat dorks (minus the ‘fat.’ They are probably very svelte). Only now they sound like grown-up dorks, with fancypants studio polish and cool thumbprint-made-from-cassette-tape-tape album artwork. Where the Hooray EP lacked in vocal brawn, Team G’s self-titled release has plenty of chub in its gut. It’s possible that Drew Hermiller’s a man now (often puberty is late); it’s also possible that Team Genius is actually a team of geniuses (possible but not probable). Genius or not, they certainly are—prepare yourself for a music pun—hitting the right notes with the boy-girl harmonies and the toe-tappin’ jangle pop. Let’s delve further, shall we?

Upon further observation, the cool thumbprint-made-from-cassette-tape-tape is actually a cool thumbprint-made-from-mixtape-tape, which is obviously a reference to season 2, episode 6 of the popular Nickelodeon show “Salute Your Shorts,” when Budnick develops a sad crush on Dina and (presumably) makes her many Slayer mixtapes; unfortunately she is unable to return his love because he has long hair. Eventually Budnick tries to change himself for Dina, who is a rich bitch and incapable of feelings; the pinnacle of this transformation is his decision to cut his hair. I think Team Genius is at a similar crossroad as Budnick, trying to find that balance between silly and serious, spontaneity and control, fun and work, long hair and Super Cuts crew cuts. The fellas (and ladies) may have one foot in the sticky mess of youth, but it’s clear that they’re making a genuine effort to explore broader avenues beyond the nerd-core limits.

04 I'm Just An Idiot

“Take Me Home” is absolutely tits: snappy electro-funk-meets-downtown dance dive, as realized by a hip suburban jazz choir. Interestingly, the song is not about gettin’ bizay in da club and going home with lots of shorties; the lyrics, in fact, are “reflective” and serious (but still fun). Although they maintain some of the low-tech unfussiness that made Hooray enjoyable, the Team’s lyrical psyche has definitely evolved (“Let’s All Sleep Together” and “I’m Just an Idiot” have been replaced with “The Wise Ones All Give Up” and “Meanderings and Musings”). Even “Sing Song,” a cheeky little ditty-bop about singing and being loud but not sorry sounds better post-studio magic (and this was one of the standout tracks of Hooray).

Team Genius is still a Brooklyn band (but not the sucky one). They buy things at stores (just like us!), have Myspace pages (just like us!), and play live shows (not like us). They’re debut full-length album will be available tomorrow (Oct. 7). You can get it somewhere (the ‘where’ is TBD; check their website for more info).

funny, but...

nobody@vox.com(arbed) — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 21:04:15 -0400

This pic from ICHC cracked me up but it also perfectly demonstrates what is probably my only problem with lolcats: either write your caption in lolspeak or write it in proper English. Writing a whole caption in proper English with the exception of one lolspeak word just doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. Maybe it's just an odd peeve I have, but there you go.

Open mouth. Insert Foot.

nobody@vox.com(El Goober) — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 21:01:20 -0400

My manager came up to me and said that he wasn't going to be in the rest of the week.

Being the smartarse I am, I did a "wooohooo... I mean, oh shucks" thing.

Reason he's not going to be in is because his grandma died over the weekend and he's gotta fly back to Tassie for the funeral.

*sigh*

I gotta get better tasting shoes.
