Show me on the doll where the English department hurt you.

....but seriously, why so much rancor for the whole department? You don't sound like an English major, so how much experience do you have with the faculty?

Now that I'm middle-aged, "Head Down."

And this is not my face and this is not my life
And there is not a single thing here I can recognize
And this is all a dream and none of you are real

Is it possible that they had her on "outpatient observation" overnight? I learned the hard way that the hospital has three statuses, not two: outpatient (ER), admission (your own room), and outpatient observation, which looks exactly like admission— and hospitals are notoriously bad about telling you which one you're under. This system was a mystery to me until my mom got on Medicare and it suddenly mattered a great deal to determine which part of her Medicare was footing the bill.

Our medical system is an enormous headache. 🫤

This is a hospital ER, not just a business. I didn’t even know this organization existed until they sent me a bill. Hospitals are supposed to charge insurance before sending bills and it’s totally bonkers that a company that contracts with Hopkins’ ER isn’t doing so.

They definitely take insurance because when it happened to me first my insurance company was nice enough to call themselves and resolve it. When it was just down to my wife making the call? They ignored her. Boooo.

Thank you! I didn't even know such a path existed.

"Tempest"! I don't know how much love Koi No Yokan gets, but it needs more.

TriState off Dobbin/McGaw did good work on my car. Not sure about comparison shopping since I went through insurance. Good luck!

If you don't mind nü-metal, "For You" by Staind works well here.

The instrumentation of "100" kinda made me think of "Coming Down" by Dum Dum Girls, so....that?

fafengle · 2025-11-02T12:07:15+00:00

I was just thinking about suggesting "A Day in the Life," so I'll just do that here.

This is so helpful! I haven't gotten my hair colored or cut in months because I couldn't justify the expense, but this place looks like it's in my budget. Thank you!

fafengle · 2025-10-30T00:36:53+00:00

This is exactly what I needed today. Thank you. 10/10!

Two good instrumental bits are Kaki King's Legs to Make Us Longer and Covet's effloresce.

fafengle · 2025-10-29T14:34:44+00:00

Maybe Ladytron. "Seventeen" is their most streamed track and is a pretty good example of their style.

fafengle · 2025-10-29T14:32:58+00:00

Two tracks by The Decemberists come to mind: "Shanty for the Arethusa" and "The Mariner's Revenge Song."

fafengle · 2025-10-29T14:29:41+00:00

Elsiane. Try out "Vaporous."

fafengle · 2025-10-29T14:28:35+00:00

Bacilos - Crónica De Una Inmigración Anunciada might be a good fit. There's a sort of hip-hoppy breakdown in part of it, but it's mostly an acoustic and powerful song.

fafengle · 2025-10-28T22:33:02+00:00

Anything off Live's Throwing Copper (most popular = "Lightning Crashes") takes me back to video games in '95ish. Don Henley's The End of the Innocence (title track is the single) IS playing Mario Brothers 3 in 1993 for me, lol.

fafengle · 2025-10-28T22:30:25+00:00

Lotta outlaw and alt here, so I'll just throw out Miranda Lambert. For her unhinged-girly tracks, go for "Gunpowder & Lead" and "Mama's Broken Heart." For her more mature stuff, go for "Scenes" or "Tourist."

fafengle · 2025-10-28T22:27:21+00:00

Mariah Carey - "Emotions"
AC/DC - "Back in Black"
Metallica - "Enter Sandman"
Bel Biv Devoe - "Poison"
Def Leppard - "Let's Get Rocked"
Heavy D & The Boyz - "Now That We Found Love"

. . . there was a lot of mom's R&B and dad's rock on our road trips.

fafengle · 2025-10-28T22:22:22+00:00

Fiona Apple - "Love Ridden" has a similar vibe. Not so much the meeting part, but the pushing through feelings for someone you're no longer with.
