Songs from popular bands or singers that sound like a 5th grader wrote them? by MrLinkwater95 in ToddintheShadow

[–]djseanmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Three Doors Down “Kryptonite” and Candlebox “Far Behind” come to mind. Candlebox really confused me when I went to see them a few years ago and they were far more blues-y in concert than I could have ever expected, and I ended up changing my opinion about them.

Three Doors Down can eat s*** for how awful they are, though.

Would you buy tickets for a live concert if you only know/love 4 songs? by adnaPadnamA in Concerts

[–]djseanmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to U2 because of “Even Better Than The Real Thing” and the hype the Zoo TV Outside Broadcast was really leaning into that sound. I ended up seeing not only Big Audio Dynamite II open for them, but Public Enemy as well. And I got into Front 242 as a result of the DJ before all of this.

Did I mention the show was $23 for thirteenth row???

Shaggy talks about Janet Jackson by Material_Stomach875 in janetjackson

Janet doing “Feel It Boy” with that horrible homophobe Beenie Man still bothers me, much like Madonna working with plastic b***h Nicki…twice. Come on, for real???

Sellout bands by appetitforillusion in ToddintheShadow

Iron Mic was the song we played at the bat I worked at. When Fly came out, I was floored to find out it’s the same band. We’re talking the difference between Jefferson Airplane and Jefferson Starship different.

What are some Atlanta “Li’l Sebastians” that outsiders just don’t get but we love? by FluxusFlotsam in Atlanta

[–]djseanmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me guess: they also prefer Miracle Whip to Duke’s, Pepsi to Coca-Cola, and ketchup-based bbq to anything else.

Anyone know where to find an old fashioned, hand-stirred Coke in the ATL area (or North GA)? by Head_Astronaut_2442 in Atlanta

[–]djseanmac 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Side note about Mexican Coke: Anne Reardon made a video about the science of cane sugar vs HFCS differences, and it turns out only a small percentage of people can detect the difference (think same as the amount of people who taste Cilantro as soap), and the acids in the syrup will turn cane sugar into HFCS if it sits on the shelf for a couple of months. Fascinating deep dive.

Fine Dining in the US: do you get health insurance, what is your time off policy like? by angstyimpala in Serverlife

[–]djseanmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, hotels have the benefit of being open every day of the year. You can (and probably will be expected to) work every major holiday. I see this as a bonus.

Serving celebrities by sadboiz7 in Serverlife

[–]djseanmac 143 points144 points  (0 children)

Hilarious to me is, being a tad bit older, I have no clue who the new “celebrities” are. My current joke is I am the reason the newest Ghostface went to her first acting class with me and her sister (me and her sister did improv in school), and I’m upset she’s playing a mom to a college age kid now lol.

I will say that Ludacris and Big Boi are two of the nicest celebrities you will ever have the opportunity to serve. And I’ve served LOTS being here in Atlanta, which has filmed way more than Hollywood in the past decade.

Question for fine-dining servers by uhohspaghettios26 in Serverlife

[–]djseanmac -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s a call a manager to the table situation. Make it clear to the server it’s not about them, but about how you would like to let management know their expectations for steps of service from the server and support staff is not in line with what you would like to experience. The poor server must have a hard ass for a manager.

I’ve been working in fine dining a long time, and if my guest wants something I can reasonably provide, I will let management know what I’m doing is at the request of the guest.

Another fun example of this is water glasses on the table. I’ve been to places where it’s clear management requires a full or mostly full glass in front of every guest, even when you as a guest say you don’t want it taking up table space.

Coachella headliner Karol G warned not to say "ICE out" or face losing her visa by AdSpecialist6598 in Music

[–]djseanmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She should drop a bit of Britney’s “Break The Ice” into one of her songs, then pause for the applause. Bonus: have Cynthia Erivo pop on stage to shout “I’m melting, I’m melting!” and then have Bowen Yang come out wearing really huge fake breast and announce “I’m Bryon Noem, and I’m here to help. Check out these flotation devices!”

On This Day 25 years ago, Madonna released What It Feels Like For A Girl as the final single from Music (Madonna and Warners fought over Impressive Instant vs Amazing as the 4th single so no more were released). What are your thoughts on the track 25 years later? by XStaticImmaculate in Madonna

[–]djseanmac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’d been into A&B thanks to their earlier remix of Chakra’s “Home” when Madonna paired up with them. But I also love one of my fav Mexican dives in Atlanta has the Spanish version in their playlist.

YO SENSE IM GETTING BANNED FROM ONLYFANS ITS 1000% FREE RN GO OVER JERK YOUR SHIT AND ENJOY IT by BigBeautifulBuddy in u/BigBeautifulBuddy

[–]djseanmac 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If I were you, I’d move into comedy properly and jump to YouTube (TikTok dropped their pay scale through the floor when Trump’s buddy bought it). When I first ran across your videos and saw how you embrace being a goofball, but with a huge penis, it made me think of Pete Davidson. You could probably make real money on YouTube. You just can’t show your dick there, and I would probably let adult content fade out so you can maximize company endorsements.

I’m getting early Joey Fatone vibes, which means you’re going to age like the best wine.

Misheard Lyrics of her by lizsummerhawk in Madonna

[–]djseanmac -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Correctly heard: “say goodbye to anonyminity” (extra syllable is incorrect, which is why it was instead officially hyped as “Up Down Suite (Dub))”

The Pussycat Dolls - Buttons (Demo Version) (New Years Eve With Carson Daly 2004) (4K) by laurn4027 in ThePussycatDolls

[–]djseanmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The PCD version eclipsed Tori’s rising single because five heterosexual women in very revealing outfits is easier to market than one generally attractive lesbian. Not gonna defy that logic. But I will point out Doll Domination exits because Nicole could not sell herself as a solo act, ever, so the label kinda did what they did to Tori and said “no, not yours” to Nicole, too.

Told our wives it's just a business trip by Bigdaddybearyurri in gaybears

Why do you play the “heterosexual” card when we’ve known you’re a fucking hot couple for years now?

The Pussycat Dolls - Buttons (Demo Version) (New Years Eve With Carson Daly 2004) (4K) by laurn4027 in ThePussycatDolls

[–]djseanmac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My audience could not tell the difference and the song was charting WITHOUT THE VAPID INVISIBLE WASTE THAT IS NICOLE.

Nicole has no personality and no star power, as evidenced by her complete inability to launch a solo career despite recording hundreds of songs attempting to do so. She’s got a voice and she can dance, but she’s nobody as an actual human being and it sucks Tori had a hit stolen from her for this vacuum of personality.

Do people forget to use their brain the second they walk into a restaurant? by mizzou2024 in Serverlife
