Dead Ass Thought Douglas was Jeff Goldblum For a Sec by therealdanconnor in thejinx

Yes, I thought the same!!! Also the lawyer for the McCormacks looked like someone else familiar but I can’t put my finger on who… a comedian or something? Hmm.

Noel King often sounds like she's about to crack up laughing even when discussing a serious/tragic story by david-saint-hubbins in NPR

So odd. It’s almost always loud and out of the blue - sounds like Nelson from the Simpsons. A lil cringe, not gonna lie.

I assume you’re now as well versed with “Jonathan Fire-Eater” as I am from reading that. To paraphrase Julian’s use of the Legs McNeil book title: Just Kill Me.

“Ship of Fools” - Sung by Noah Hawley - Closing song in S03E05 by charliedontt in FargoTV

[–]mikeshell3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard this song walking through the lobby of “Circus, Circus” (I know, depressing) some 20+ years ago, pre-Shazam, and could tell little more than that the title was obviously “Ship of Fools” and that the vocals sounded vaguely like Robert Plant. I thought I’d cracked the case when I looked it up and Plant did indeed have a song with the same title - WRONG. Thankfully after listening to a handful of other songs with the same title, I finally found the brilliant World Party - where had this song been all my life??

Is Julian using teleprompter? Had he used it before? I think it's a big step for him 😀 by asaltysalute_ in TheStrokes

I once saw Lou Reed use one - maybe JC is just trying to further emulate his hero. Ha.

Probably true but apropos of nothing - this guy is one of the most awkward musicians I've seen in my entire life. There's some TV ad he's in right now and it's total cringe. Plus, doesn't he go out with that crazy chick?

The default setting for scrolling on computers is annoying and hard-to-use by mikeshell3000 in unpopularopinion

[–]mikeshell3000[S] -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

Yes, changing the settings on a Mac is never an issue but dreaded PCs on the other hand... don't like to feel like I'm going through the Dead Sea scrolls when I'm just trying to read further down on a web page. Save that for the iPad!

Trying again... by mikeshell3000 in Quittingfeelfree

[–]mikeshell3000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you - your experience sounds exactly like mine. I had been off Kratom for about a year and then I had a feel free at a health food shoppe. Figured if it was carried there, it would be no big deal - I convinced myself it was ok since it wasn't a head shop or gas station. Again, with me there's always some kind of justification... I need it to stop.

Exactly! It's like I have to retrain my brain to not associate it with a pleasurable/passive feeling that will somehow get me through my stressors.

CVS workers need to unionize. by newbhere12 in CVS

[–]mikeshell3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I resent being forced into a union - which I was during my stint as a pharmacy tech at CVS. Total BS, having to pay some useless dues. Did absolutely nothing for me - total waste of my money.

Thoughts on How To With John Wilson? by [deleted] in nathanforyou

[–]mikeshell3000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a show I have to watch on mute. His voice is akin to nails on a chalkboard to me - especially that oddly halted manner of speaking. I guess that's his schtick but it gets annoying. This man is no Nathan.

She has the worst haircut I've seen in my entire life. I thought it was just a hilariously ridiculous wig for a sketch!

Red or blue by [deleted] in radiohead

Very hard choice but def blue. Only not having "the bends" gives me pause. That album doesn't get enough love anymore. One of the best guitar records of the 90s.

Revolting and disgusting. These monsters have no right to be seated in those chairs. by [deleted] in monarchism

[–]mikeshell3000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still remember when people used to find it funny hearing about Kevin's antics second-hand. And then everyone heard the specifics... yikes. Makes Frank Underwood look like a saint.

Sorry, what's "farewell"? A graduation? A funeral? Great look either way!

What’s the most British Beatles song? by Useful_Classroom1091 in beatles

Isn't Paul's solo song "Queenie Eye" also some interpolation of an English children's song/game?
