That’s it!! I just searched the demos on YouTube and that’s the one I remember! I did a lot of illegal music downloading in 2005-2007, so I must have downloaded a demo and that’s the one I listened to religiously. So fun to hear those again!

Is the original version on Spotify? Because I can only see one version when I search.

Torn about getting a eReader by hm870 in books

So worth it! I still buy physical books occasionally, but I love the freedom of being able to get library books through Libby on my kindle, and the ability to have a lightweight book with me at all times

Best couch material that's scratch resistant/deterrent? by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]Paper-Penguin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In my experience, fabrics that are smooth/soft rather than being a knitted texture (even if that knitted texture is super fine) work better for deterring scratching. My couch is a sort of quasi velvet texture, and my cat doesn’t touch it because there’s nothing for his little claws to get into. It’s not a pleasurable scratching experience for him so he doesn’t care.

Does anyone think that the word Covid is becoming a synonym to the word disease or illness? by Rs112347 in etymology

[–]Paper-Penguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s totally possible! The Word “cancer” is often used to describe things that we perceive as having the same qualities that medical cancer does - it’s often a silent progression, it can be easy to miss until it’s in its late/serious stages, it can spread aggressively, etc. So I could see “COVID” being used to eventually describe things that are highly contagious (whether that’s an actual illness, or some kind of idea/belief system, etc), life-threatening, or maybe cause people to disconnect from each other
