Re: "Last Song I Listened To..."
I like to work on my sermons with classical music in the background, and I always forget that this time on Saturdays they have this horrid leprechaun-oriented music program, with a horrid leprechaunish narrator named Seamus or something. It's called "Celtic Sojourn" and it makes me want to stick pins in my eyes.
Just sayin.

WTF? Like I don't have enough "assignments" already with 4 classes this semester? You know music is background for me. And you already know you hate what music I do find time to listen to. And *I* know that you weren't kidding when you wrote that you "like to know people's taste in music because it reminds [you] how much better [your's] is." You're so full of yourself.

I hate you.

Sorry, I'm operating on 4 hrs of sleep & have to prepare for tomorrow's classes still. But I still meant everything I wrote. My list will be up on my blog at some point but when I have time.

I realized this may not have been clear. I don't hate you because you're full of yourself. That I like. I hate you for giving me an assignment.

There, now all you Dan lovers out there don't have to bother getting mad at me.

Ugh, your musical taste is so pretentious. "I have better taste in music than you cause I don't listen to Top 40 radio and bought something Amazon.com recommended to me." Whatever.

Besides, the best band in the whole world is Moloko and if you don't know that than I feel sorry for you. I like Air, Kylie, Rouge Rouge, Sade and others you prolly haven't heard of, so there...

Dan~I see you weeded out your less than cooool faves like guns n roses and beyonce.

as for you Brent~ Is moloko less pretentious? I have never heard it on the lovelight that's for sure.

I tagged myself. I hope you're okay with this, normally I don't discuss self-tagging publicly but something made me confess it here.
