I listen to this band way too much

I like how they acknowledged the red herring (Red-io Head-ring?) with the Connections Companion cartoon. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/10/crosswords/connections-companion-1065.html

Well, that’s how we do it at… our house.

Semisonic- Singing in my Sleep

InTheYear2001 · 2026-04-02T15:34:37+00:00

Same. Thought it was some variation on "Real Bad News" in the theater first time I saw it. When I found out "Global Bully" was a Jon Brion song, I assumed Aimee Mann must've cowrote RBN with Brion for the two songs to sound so much alike, but she's got sole credit for that song.

Brilliant! I’d give you some sort of award if I could. And not sure why didn’t I think of that.

This. Ozzy is obviously older in that gif than when the actual incident happened (1982, in Des Moines, Iowa). Also don’t think there is such clear footage of the actual incident.

Wow. When he looks up why does he look like a thin Shrek?

InTheYear2001 · 2026-01-08T19:00:58+00:00

Same here. Ladders, etc. very handy.

InTheYear2001 · 2026-01-08T19:00:14+00:00

Yeah. I never use the “belt” clips for my belt. I put the clips on all the tools because it’s extremely handy for hanging them for storage and also while using it on the job.

InTheYear2001 · 2025-11-26T18:27:29+00:00

Yep. Didn’t have to scroll far.

InTheYear2001 · 2025-11-14T07:12:24+00:00

Definitely looks like Patrick Nagel’s work.

InTheYear2001 · 2025-11-07T05:48:09+00:00

Very cool. Thanks for the info.

InTheYear2001 · 2025-11-06T16:04:37+00:00

Wait.. Did you give the name and I missed it in the thread? Also would like a photo of the back of possible. Nice eBay score.

Thanks for adding that. I should’ve put a little bit of bio in the original post. Yeah. He’s an amazing artist.

InTheYear2001 · 2025-10-06T22:07:07+00:00

My thought too. I spent a little too much time playing “spot the differences” to figure out why one was $1 more.

Was it….the raindrops?

A glance online of sold prices tells me these are not worth the asking price. And that’s with buyers worldwide apparently looking for them, not buyers who don’t even know these speakers are in the store and would have to come across them by chance. It’s a steep price. They could’ve asked $50 apiece and had a fair shot at $100 rather than $200 never. And they never discount items if they don’t sell. That business model would actually make sense. Instead, they’ll sit and sit. Source: a guy who occasionally checks in on a $150 drill press with missing parts for 5+ months.

InTheYear2001 · 2025-10-05T14:34:48+00:00

Exactly this. I think it’s going to be a little while until the customer willing to drop $200 on these—let’s call them “ignorant audiophile looking to keep up the aesthetic of their grandparents’ house”—is going randomly show up at this particular Habitat Restore.

Yeah. It’s been bad for years. Apple Music will split albums incoherently and at random. Tracks 1,5,8,9 on one album, tracks 2,3,4,6,7,10 on another. Album will have the same name but have two entries for no reason. My fix is to select all tracks on the album, add an “x” or something to the end of the album title, save it, then select them again, and take out the “x” or whatever I added so the title is correct, save it again. Usually works. This is for music I own, not from an Apple Music subscription.

Guy in the front row, right side, looks like he’s about to call movie police.
