hyper-literate prog rock

Thanks to Linnea for giving me the heads-up on Colbert's malignment of the Decemberists. I really don't see how Colbert can complain, since his whole project was one giant coat-tail ride in the first place (Star Wars Kid, anyone? And Arrested Development's coat-tail was funnier, I should add....). Let's just have all our favourite cultural icons attend one huge parody fest. Then everyone can copy everyone else AT THE SAME TIME!!!

The taunts fly like Trojan rabbits: "Your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries..."

Insult!

Glove!

Pistols!


Only because I love hyper-literate prog rock do I follow such controversy with avid attention (well, when someone points it out to me....)

Also, it is currently my academic fantasy to co-author a paper with Linnea, because, as she put it: "Words and music, music and words. They go together, man. More people need to realize this."


Finally, Evan showed me this tonedeaf test. I only scored a 69.4% the first time, which I figured was pretty decent considering I was still having a conversation at the same time. This morning, however, I retook the test for my own curiosity's sake and received a much more satisfactory score of 80.6%. Haha. Okay, I don't know why numbers make me feel so validated in life. Back to work...
