This is a true mental disorder.

Oh, I agree with you.

He used to insist on doing multiple tracks for the Queen recordings, and insisted on the jacket having the text “No synthesizers!” Yeah, a lot better to have no way to reproduce the performance live, apart from the use of tapes.

That racist turkey should be cooked because of its ancestors’ participation in the original subjugation of Native Americans in this country by racist Europeans.

The guilt is patent, and there is but one outcome amenable to the aggrieved parties.

They’ve enjoyed turkey privilege for far too long.

I didn’t realize the radio station I listen to on occasion was an international affair. Apparently Jack FM is all over the U.S. administered by CBS radio while in the U.K. by the BBC. Wondering if Jack FM is anywhere else on this shrinking Earth.

Their format is simple enough. Wisecracking, no request, play what they want so they don’t have to pay an expensive BIG NAME Disc Jockey, cram the commercials in between sets, and run interesting side shows to pique the interest of entertainment seekers. Seems to work.

Considering something to be just plain poor taste in humor has now been escalated to high political theater.

If anything goes hand-in-hand with the current world-wide grievance culture, it is a total lack of humor. What a humorless time.

:’) Those guitarist rankings are not quite, but nearly, ridiculous.

“Fat Bottomed Girls” is the one I still enjoy. They were glam-pop and had their big hit (which makes me puke at this point) “Bohemian Rhapsody” when I was, hmm, in high school?

My favorite cover is still the dog on the platter with the apple in its mouth, followed by the deranged Santa taking a dump down the chimney, with the caption, “you’re lucky, he CAME down ours!”

I’ve developed a near-total lack of humor toward so-called animal rights activists. I could pretty much kick them all into a live wood chipper, then eat a steak. I mean that in the nicest possible way, though.
