Mug Costanza

[double post? That's not what I asked for!]

So let me just make sure I'm not confusing my pronouns... Your best friend broke up with her boyfriend, and now he is possibly dating your ex-friend? That's rough. I've never been in this kind of situation before but I know people who have and it's not good news, that's for sure.

Agreed. If you just make out a little bit, you can at least blame it on a fit of unbridled passion, but sex would kinda ruin the friendship, in my opinion. ...on second read, that kinda makes me sound like a terrible person.

Maybe you're on to something. "God give me style and give me wits. God bring me down to Massachuuuuuusetts." I seriously think you might be right. :)

Probably because I was singing the real words having completely forgotten beforehand that Chris usually changes the lyrics of GPASUYF depending on the venue they're at. :P Sorry 'bout that.

Aaaahhh this is frickin' sweet!! A friend of mine who lives down the hall from me at college will undoubtedly buy Rock Band 2. Maybe this means I get to buy GH4?

A chord progression that you hear often (a song that comes to mind right away is Kaiser Chiefs' "Retirement") it I - V - bVII - IV. For example, Gmaj - Dmaj - Fmaj - Cmaj, although it can work with any key. However, with common chord progressions that are very common, they tend to become very boring after awhile. Also, when writing in a minor key, it's usually best to use V instead of v (that is, in the key of Dmin, use Amaj instead of Amin for example). It has something to do with the fact that that chord usually resolves to i (in this case Dmin) and the Amin chord contains a C while the Amaj chord contains to C#, which resolves to D better than C. One progression I came up with (which you can use if you'd like) is I - ii - bVII - V (for example, Amaj - Bmin - Gmaj - Emaj). Play around with stuff until you find something you like.

Sounds to me like "God give me style and give me [either "rest" or "bliss", or something...], God bring me down to Massachusetts."

UK: "Like A Prayer" -- Madonna (gross) USA: "The Living Years" -- Mike and the Mechanics (my name is Mike! :o) AUS: "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" -- The Proclaimers (love this song) That's all I have to say about that.

Good to see you back, Justin. I knew something was missing but I couldn't place my finger on it. Then a couple days ago I was in the shower and suddenly thought, "Oh! Justin's not on Coldplaying!" Nice to hear that you had a great summer.

It's Nick! I win! :laugh3: No, but seriously. I'm interested to see how this works out. Who was Mystery9, by the way?

I disagree. I went to the first Boston concert this month and sat in floor section J and I had a great view and a great time. (In all fairness, I'm 6'2" and we had seats right on the aisle between sections I and J.)

I voted yes. But my answer is actually no. Oops.

"Tonight, Tonight" -- Smashing Pumpkins

Guns don't kill people. APES kill people. ...damn, dirty apes...

Haha, aw, you know I'm just kidding, Indy. :)

WAIT A MINUTE GUYS I'M PRETTY SURE IT'S INDYA!!! :shifty: :shifty: :shifty: :laugh3:

Wow. What a let down THAT would be, eh? Not even on page 2 and the game would be over.

Nice. I'm in Belmont. Know what section of campus you're living in yet?

Where did you hear that? My sister will be quite pleased.

Haha, no way! :o I'm at UMass Amherst too! I'll be a sophomore in the fall. I also live fairly close to where Northeastern is. What town do you live in?

"Charlie" -- Red Hot Chili Peppers Who do you look up to?

Same here...college or high school? That's really too bad because I would've loved to be able to go a second time. :( On the other hand, I did get a first time this time around. :)

My friend got a job waiting tables for 3 weeks. Here's how: When the interviewer asks you if you are heading out to university in the fall, say, "Well, that's the thing. I'm not quite sure. I was hoping to get a job just in case I don't, but right now I don't know one way or the other," or something along those lines. Then they hire you and then about a month from now or so go in and say to your boss/manager/higher-up, "Well, I've talked it over with my family, and I've decided that I will be going to university after all." Then it's like, Well, I can't say I didn't warn you that it was a possibility. Foolproof, I say! FOOLPROOF!

This is fantastic! :laugh3: :laugh3: :laugh3: Was this from when they were "The Nappies"?
