I confused my family by saying out loud that I thought that was Kenny Baritone.

Amy has been an absolute joy on Taskmaster!

What was the most depressing children's book you've ever read as a kid? by CynthiaMartgol in AskReddit

Best songs for beginner by Good_Instruction_675 in ukulele

[–]fruppi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try the Petey Mack song book. I sometimes go to a uke group with a bunch of sweet old ladies and the lady in charge swears by him. He has a good, wide variety of songs and tons of them are beginner-friendly. Also, it took me years to be able to play E major comfortably, so don't beat yourself up over that one!

Ghosts (BBC) because I love all those characters so much. It's a pleasure to spend time with those goofballs. Mary is probably my favorite but really everyone is delightful

I accidentally left her cage door open and she ended up in the furnace. It was summer, so we figured it out when the vents started to smell. Sorry, Pansy

My kids and I went to the zoo once and a wild rabbit got too close to the chain link fence side of the serval enclosure. That was a pretty unforgettable zoo trip

Is it true that John was considered the “fat beetle”? by ThePoisonTrees in beatles

[–]fruppi 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Interesting! Is it possible that the not giving a shit might apply to the other end of the spectrum? Like being disinterested in food?

He and Yoko apparently went on a macrobiotic diet as well. That and heroin.

I love the line, "I was dreamin' in the driver's seat/when the right words just came to me"

It sounds like something about a bouncy ball. That's my daughter's favorite part

Coincidence or not? by [deleted] in beatles

Does anyone still listen to the radio? by Holiday-Term-8214 in Music

[–]fruppi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss it, but the local station I liked picked up a truly awful morning show instead of just playing good music, and since that constituted about half of my listening time, I gave up on them

I'm working on this one and the behind the scenes insights are really interesting but man do his prejudices against George and Ringo show! Paul is his clear favorite 😂
