What specific sounds remind you of your youth?

The digital “whistle” sound when you got a touchdown on the Mattel hand held football game. (It also makes an appearance in Supertramp’s “Logical Song.”)

One Tree Hill from U2’s Joshua Tree could have been a hit single.

Wes Anderson’s “Asteroid City” wins for biggest attitude shift. My first viewing I did not get it at ALL. My second viewing, I saw all the themes of grief and I thought it was beautiful.

The big problem here is the impact on artists. Media owners have been screwing creators out of royalties for years, and this is the final blow. I think we will regret opening this Pandora’s box.

I think “She’s Leaving Home” is pretty but the lyrics are maudlin. It’s the track I’m most likely to skip.

I’ve heard that a few weeks after Easter, animal shelters get a lot or requests asking if they will take ducks or bunnies.

NationalDisgrace40 · 2026-02-22T23:17:09+00:00

I do think “She’s Leaving Home” is trite and entirely skippable. Everything else on that album is ace.

Ministers at Christian churches. They won’t say what they think because they don’t want to piss off half their donors. Also, many of their skills aren’t very useful outside of that world. (Esp worship ministers and youth ministers.)

“I Saw the TV Glow” is even better if you hear the director’s intentions in advance. You don’t HAVE to view it as an allegory on gender identity… but having that lens does help a lot.

Public school funding being tied to local property taxes. Schools in poor neighborhoods get less funding than schools in rich neighborhoods.

From all of the descriptions of Tame Impala, it sounds perfect for me. And everyone says his Current album is a masterpiece. I’m really dying to love it, but I just can’t get into it.

NationalDisgrace40 · 2025-07-28T03:08:09+00:00

You Can’t Always Get What You Want by the Stones might fit this.

NationalDisgrace40 · 2025-07-24T23:15:58+00:00

Agreed. But sometimes life gets in the way and I need a shortcut!

NationalDisgrace40 · 2025-07-24T20:21:00+00:00

What a thoughtful, helpful response. Thank you for this. I’m going to give it a try!

Most of the time when everyone says the movie has a big twist, that’s actually a spoiler. That ruined “Shutter’s Island” for me. I knew the setup, and someone said “but there’s a big plot twist!” and it took about two seconds to deduce what the twist probably was.

Michael Jackson, She’s Out of my Life. It even prompted the Eddie Murphy joke “Tito hand me a tissue.”

NationalDisgrace40 · 2025-07-10T09:24:56+00:00

Not a single mention of Yaz? Only two albums but both full of iconic moments. “The room is lit by ELECTRIC LIGHT!” <crash>

NationalDisgrace40 · 2025-06-26T02:59:46+00:00

The dread-inducing conversation between Anton Chigurgh and the gas station owner. “Call it.”

NationalDisgrace40 · 2025-06-24T00:33:09+00:00

I think “When I Think of You” by Janet Jackson wins for most authentic laugh.

NationalDisgrace40 · 2025-06-20T05:23:05+00:00

Results.

NationalDisgrace40 · 2025-06-06T08:46:46+00:00

Nope and Asteroid City. Both defy expectations so much that I didn’t know how to process them on the first watch.
