Did all the sex talk get you THAT hot and bothered?

It was the Jagger pic that put me over the top.

Do you know what kind of weird crap you get googling "Mick Jagger's lips?"

Also - "Googling Mick Jagger's lips" might be a good song name.

FIFY

If you just posted a close-up of the lips, and turned it 90 degrees...........

Must. Not. Ask. Proudest.



My mind is still sorta blown that neither @cyrocksmypants nor @GTO are familiar with the song! It's usually on "top 10 Stones songs" lists.

Honestly, just not a fan of the Stones. Not that they’re bad or anything. I’ve just never gone out of my way to listen to them other than what I hear when it’s already playing.

Being in the middle of a jam-packed Jack Trice with the beer flowing and the smoke drifting, singing along to "Ruby Tuesday" with 50K+ of my newest, bestest friends is an experience I will never forget. Then again, they were all over the air-waves when I was growing up, so I'm far more familiar with them than you are.

And I know you're a big Beatles fan. I've kind of hypothesized that a lot of us people in the "40 and under" bracket were introduced to classic rock by someone older - either a parent or some other older element. Or, at the outside, maybe a friend who had someone older introduce them. And a lot of people in the Boomer age range (and beyond) tend to be fairly divided on Beatles vs Stones - so they're probably going to play more of one or the other for us. My dad was a huge fan of both, and so I heard them pretty equally.

 

[GTO]

My excuse is that I'm ESL, so I didn't grow up listening to much of the older music that people here think everyone should know.

You've mastered the language exceptionally well - I can only imagine how funny you are in your first language!

I bet that makes some cultural references really tough sometimes.

LOL! That gives me a great excuse to tell my wife.

My kids heard both fairly equally. I had a huge vinyl collection at one time, and oldies stations were my "go to" once disco took over. Until "oldies" became music from the 70s & 80s, that is. Then I moved to country. Until country became bro-country, that is. Now, I make my own playlists of sixties rock/pop, 90's country & the occasional hair band anthem.

She's been at the Farmer's Market! https://theclownguide.com/buttons-the-clown/ What you should now do is go "accidentally" show up at a gig and start asking her if she still asks for extra sprouts.

What are the odds of anyone who'd gone to clown school needing to work at a sandwich shop? I'd think you could print your own money after that schooling.



I'm going to go with awesome:

But he/she might also be entirely insane. But I'm going to guess that conversation would still be amazing. Sometimes you've just got to light the match and watch the world burn.

Damn they aren't afraid to charge for a "Elvis" mouse

Not at all. It's insane - and they don't keep the stock on-hand for overly long, so someone is buying it. I think I would also like to meet them.

Thank you all for your input on the Untuckit brand. As soon as I figure out where their HQ is I’m going to lob a Molotov cocktail their way

I think that escalated the appropriate amount.

Can I use it?

If you want my take on Chubbies next, I’d be more than happy to do that next week. We can go through the whole frat bro clothing chains.

My dad was a huge fan of both, and so I heard them pretty equally.

I had two routes to this --

My dad's extensive LP collection, mostly of late 60s and 70s stuff. I know the Doobie Brothers and Gordon Lightfoot's catalogs better than one can possibly imagine.

I am young enough where the "musical Internet" became a thing, so music sort of lost its immediacy and sense of time and place for me very early on. You could get anything from any era that you wanted, so why did *when* it came out matter?

I also had the "advantage" of being a teenager when the popular music of the day was the last of the boy bands and Brittney, douche canoe country, and "gansta" rap (which really resonated with teenage white boys in rural Iowa for some reason), so there was really not all that much alluring or interesting there for me.

So yeah, looking for older (and better) stuff came naturally.
