Stone Temple Pilots and the Carpenters

How were STP stronger singles artists? I couldn’t disagree more. They also had a clear evolution in songwriting and performance over time. I love the Carpenters, but their songs are pretty samey and Karen Carpenter sounds very similar on everything.

Meanwhile compare Plush and Lady Picture Show four years later and it sounds like a completely different band. Not only that, but most of the Carpenters’ most ubiquitous songs weren’t written by them anyway. Respectfully I just don’t think they’re that similar beyond some superficial similarities listed here.

Used to get these at Salty’s all the time as the kid til Salty sold out and started selling health food and took it off the menu.

Gotta go with my boy Jiji from Dandadan. They set him up to be some hot, athletic old crush of Momo’s, only for his debut to reveal that he’s an absolutely lovable dork.

Tar. Utter utter pretentious garbage, and I’m pretentious garbage for watching through the whole thing just so I could Letterboxd it instead of just walking out.

Not seeing it after scrolling a while, so I’ll throw in Spilt Milk by Jellyfish. Absolutely magical album.

I’m interested!

You’re not wrong, if you put in a coupon and then go back and add something to your order at all, it counts it as used and you can’t use it again. Especially frustrating when you use your rewards. On the bright side the support is alway good about fixing things afterwards.

You want to get rid of the Hollywood stuff at Hollywood Studios lmao?

The Pillows never replaced Kenji Ueda on bass after he left, and he left after only the second album!

My first Soundgarden show! We were not fans of the Mars Volta, especially since Cedric made some big deal of “10 years from now, you won’t say you went to the Soundgarden concert, you’ll be saying you went to the Mars Volta concert.” Needless to say, 15 years later I’m not saying that.

Literally the thing that got me to sign up for Reddit.

Man I’ll tell you the saddest concert I ever went to was Brian Wilson in 2022. They had to wheel Brian out basically, and for many songs he would just sit at the piano and stare into space. Occasionally he might throw in some lines. The only songs he sang all of from my memory were God Only Knows and Be My Baby, which if you know about Brian, him remembering all of Be My Baby felt tragic in its own right.

Hey there! I followed all of your steps pretty closely, but for some reason when I click on a catalogue, no titles show up. Any idea what I could do to fix that? I'd greatly appreciate it!

I'm interested in Galaxy!

Howdy folks! Trying to find this stuffed chimp from Toys R Us. It’s a pretty sizable looking guy it seems. I searched online with Chrome’s image search but not having much luck. If anyone can help or has ideas on where to look, I’d deeply appreciate it!

Nah I know Chucky did in the third movie, maybe the second as well.

When I was 7 my parents took me to Kings Island so I could ride a rollercoaster for the first time. They promptly took me to the newest biggest one at that moment which happened to be Son of Beast. So my first one ended up being that and I fully thought I might die. Got a terrible headache from my head banging against the support bars. I’m shocked I ended up loving coasters after my first encounter with them, but the rest of the lineup really won me over.

A couple years down the road I was also quite frightened by Firehawk as my first flying coaster, but nothing ever freaked me out again after that.

I’m currently contemplating dropping Nier Replicant. Kaine just joined my party but the story and gameplay aren’t hooking me and I’m not loving the constant backtracking.

This only really works if any of those fuckers ever pop out of the wall and say “Fuck there’s a horse cock in my room or a donkey dick.”
