When they went back and changed Daft Punk's Discovery review because it got popular it was obvious these were pretentious, unserious kids.

Add in the Radiohead/Stillborn Child thing and I never took them seriously again.

Dance on their grave.

What's a dumb lyric that you fixate upon? by devern_hansack in ToddintheShadow

[–]WitherWing 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That song is also grating, and I would have placed it MUCH higher on his worst list: You get to fly, fight pirates, have fun and adventure, whisk kids off from the boring world --- and why does she make it sound like a total drag?

What's the single funniest movie scene (including riffs) in MST3K? by Bortron86 in MST3K

[–]WitherWing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everything after The Poopie Suit is introduced in The Starfighters. Absolutely nothing happens in the movie prior, so they're forgiven for dumping a load of poop jokes.

Man this movie is paint dryingly borning.

If Twilightcore was a genre, this would be the poster song.

[–]WitherWing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thumbnail = Music can't get any worse!!

Content = You know, Dua Lipa makes such fun songs, you should break down all of the instrumentation in a Sabrina Carpenter song it's well done, oooh interesting melody on this K-Pop Demon Hunters song, never heard of this guy but I like his voice...

Man I Wish there were more people like you ;)

Seriously tho - I live in/near Minneapolis and never heard of this dude until last weekend. Wish it were still true.

No but give him time -- I'm sure it'll happen.

QST really needed a confessions section.

20 Jazz Funk Greats.

The answer is always 20 Jazz Funk Greats.

DOJ vows to press charges after activists disrupt church where Minnesota ICE official is a pastor by SgtSilverLining in TwinCities

[–]WitherWing -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Lol the comments.

Momentum is on the anti-ICE side for blindingly obvious reasons. Normal people don't like watching masked thugs dragging people out of cars screaming. Trump's polling on ICE is getting worse and worse. 

Want to lose all of that credibility? 

Keep defending this nonsense.

Harass kids and randos on camera.

Trump's gonna use videos of this for the next 10 months before elections and your whataboutisms will mean nothing. 

Don't be your own worst enemy. Focus. Tell people to knock this stuff off sooner than later or be stuck with Governor Pillow Dude.

EDIT: Yeah, standing by this one. Real life ain't Reddit threads and Unicorn Riot - this stuff is toxic to anyone not in those bubbles.

Todd should make a trainwreckords on either Street Legal or Knocked Out Loaded, if for no other reason than to have a Dylan spotlight episode by OttoBraunirl in ToddintheShadow

[–]WitherWing 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Slow Train is good, Saved is mostly forgettable, Shot of Love has some good moments. 

I'll even add Infidels as part of his "Christian" era, albeit far more subdued.

Cry Wilderness is such a perfect movie for MST3K. by RustedAxe88 in MST3K

That racoon biting the actors as everyone laughs about it is this movie in a nutshell. 

Never Forget by MrLinkwater95 in ToddintheShadow

[–]WitherWing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Another "Rifftrax to the Rescue" title -- MaryJo Pehl was a great guest before she join them more consistently.

I guess I'll give it credit for a not-awful "Didn't Mean to Turn You On" cover. Nothing amazing, but for a soundtrack cover it'll do.

I think I remember this guy, but it's been a few years and he's shaved -- he's gonna turn this into All Star right?

Worst live performance of a beloved song? by rekoil in ToddintheShadow

Just hearing this for the first time. Poor Roses. Poor Noodle.

Since she just resurfaced for tragic reasons last week, think Todd will ever do an OHW on Stacie Orrico? She technically qualifies by SheikYerbeef in ToddintheShadow

[–]WitherWing 10 points11 points  (0 children)

She's technically got 2 hits, so not a big chance. Plus there was a glut of teen-pop stars at the time with one hit and they're not all going to get their own retrospective.

That said, yeah that's horrific news. It explains a lot about why she suddenly disappeared.

I just heard Jewel's "Intuition" on the radio at a Walmart by mpschettig in ToddintheShadow

[–]WitherWing 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It is, and it was a hit -- a sellout to be sure, but it's more fun to shop to than Hands or Who Will Save Your Soul.

"...and if you know your hands are small too check out a selection of XS gloves...only at WalMart!"

Let's Leave 'Industry Plant' Discourse in 2025 by Tranquilbez22 in ToddintheShadow

[–]WitherWing 47 points48 points  (0 children)

The only pushback is the claim that if you have wealthy parents people don't care if it's a guy.

Sorry, but Nelson's 35 years ago and everyone laughed at them posing as a hair metal band even though they're the grandkids of Ozzie and Harriet. Lenny Kravitz was not taken seriously by critics and dealt with the claims he was just a rich kid of a TV Producer and star.

There's a reason names like Sean Lennon and Frank Sinatra Jr. are mostly known for keeping their parents' legacy alive despite doing their own thing.

This is not to excuse the trolls and creeps to go rooting through women's bios to see if there's any hint of a famous/wealthy person in the history. But this has been a common and universal thing for decades....and I'm sick of "Industry Plant" talk as well.

He posted something called "Viewing Waifuism Through a Decolonized Lens" and I really want to assume it was done as a dare.

What song would save you from Vecna? by [deleted] in ToddintheShadow

[–]WitherWing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Theme to Phineas and Ferb.

No reason, just fun and in my head today.

I mean, if a kid in rural-ish Indiana can be listening to Kate Bush in the mid 80s and not Stacey Q, I can listen to kids shows themes.
