"Drewfonts reminded me":http://mog.com/drewfonts/blog_post/60442. But truly, you can make fun of any musical genre, so I wanted to share with you a few of "Merli...

The best thing a priest ever said to me
over 2 years ago

bq. If anyone tries to tell you that you have to do your wedding a certain way, tell them to fuck off. And if anyone invites you to one of those bridal fairs, tell them to fuck off and die.It is too bad this guy can only legally authorize religious ceremonies. He has tattoos. And he's really nice. And he cusses. I predict that we will trade book recommendations.I think this Fall song is making fun

Why are vocals so much better when they're all cut c-c-cut cut up up up?
over 2 years ago

I think I have a primal fascination happening with human voices. Strange singing voices, low voiced women, high voiced men, funny accents-- they OWN me. Cut-up vocals and manipulated stuttering get me so delighted that I don't know how to react, so rather than bursting into tears and entering a sensory fugue state, I tend to get the giggles and make involuntary spirit fingers.
