What's your favorite word?
Those aren't actually my faves, just can't think of them until I use them. I do like lugubrious, aporetic, and elenchus though.

What's your favorite word?
I had a whole medieval english lit course devoted to that word. The teacher was later let go for undisclosed reasons :blank:

thanks. though I just a better view on my t.v.. Clear and blatant. Terry never ceases to embarrass himself in champions league play (or in general)

2-1 at the half. Ramires goal coming out of nowhere. Crazy game. I have yet to see a good angle of Terry kneeing Sanchez. Fox Soccer only had one brief shot from the barca end, yet the commentators were convinced it was red worthy. Apparently the ref didn't see it, but was going entirely off the assistant ref's call.

L I F E I N T E C H N I C O L O R : T H E B A N D
Didn't care for it. Acoustic guitar strumming the 2nd most popular 4-chord pop progression throughout, verse and chorus. Not particularly original, and you (the band) could have at least done the courtesy of adding a guitar or keyboard accompaniment. Singing is decent, nice melody...but overall, pretty boring.

2012 Songs Worth Listening To
I just listened to it for the first time, and I'm ambivalent because a. I agree with much of what Eddie is saying b. There's just enough of that late 90s boy-bandish flavor to keep me unsettled.

2012 Albums Worth Listening To
I loved 'ladies and gentlemen...' as a kid (largely because it corresponded with my reading of Sophie's World, also I was jizzing over the whole idea of space rock). When I saw the new one got best new on pitch (can y'all keep up with mah hip lingo), I naturally downloaded it. Gotta say, I was disappointed. I guess I just don't care for what Pierce is trying to do these days. Just feels archaic and done. :(

Boring old people music
1. Get in your car. 2. Buy the complete works of Animal Collective, an ecstasy pill, and a children's ball pit. 3. You're welcome. To get the obligatory stuff, listen to some f-in Beatles. At the very least do Sgt. Pepper, Abbey Road and White Album. As far as other classic 'old' music that you ought to seriously listen to at least once... The Doors Self-titled, Old Billy Joel, Pink Floyd, The Velvet Underground, The Smiths, Eric Clapton (while you're at it, B.B. King and that whole blues generation), 80s U2 Albums, maybe some Jazz (Dave Brubeck, Coltrane a Love Supreme...) I know it's not 'old old' but Nirvana and Jeff Buckley are musts as well...

The new Nils Frahm/Olafur Arnalds collab, "Erased Tapes" is juicy.

Film Survey
Just couldn't bring myself to answer the questions. First, I don't characterize the films I enjoy in terms of genre. Whether a movie based in history or sci-fi or western (which I assume also fits with historical? don't mean diddly with regard to whether its appealing or worth seeing. Good and shit films can come from anywhere. Also, questions like 'what is the worst recently made movie' or 'what do you think of recently made films' just strike me as pointless and abstract.

Now Fabregas should've scored after Messi tip-toes into the box. Possession stats are humiliating for Chelsea. About 75-25.

The Official Club Football 2014-2015 thread
Beautiful ball through to Sanchez, should be 1-0. I think the absence of Pique should give Drogba a few more chances...but no worries for Barca if his touch stays the same. On a side note: Sanchez annoys me.
