No. With whiskey shots.

"The music wasn't the big problem, it was more their attitude...Sex acts between band members in public. People carrying drugs across borders. Pajo sleeping with the producer's girlfriend while we were making the record." [1]

JordanC (JordanC), Wednesday, 29 November 2006 22:42 (seventeen years ago) link

But the music was pretty bad, too.

danno martinez (danno martinez), Wednesday, 29 November 2006 22:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh yeah, I thought Pajo and Paz were sleeping together...?

jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 29 November 2006 23:03 (seventeen years ago) link

They might as well since they're apparently the same person

Man, I'm gonna out myself as a huge, huge Pumpkins fan right now... they were very, very hit or miss live, but some of their shows were absolutely killer. BC is a huge douche, but an underrated guitar player.

OMGOMGOMGOMGOGMMGOMGMGMGMG! Comcast On Demand has a...

Ahahahaha! Cannonball! "In the style of the Breeders."

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 02:49 (seventeen years ago) link

You know what else you can get ON DEMAND? Guitar lessons. There is a woman teaching Jeff how to play "Ironic" on TV right now.

There's also "dating on demand" that I watched on day when I was bored, but it was kind of depressing.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 02:55 (seventeen years ago) link

Complaining about the Smashing Pumpkins = not allowed. (I am a bigot.)

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:00 (seventeen years ago) link

NED RAGGETT do you want to come over and sing karaoke using our TV?

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:01 (seventeen years ago) link

I am too tired and full of good food to move much.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:04 (seventeen years ago) link

You can sit on the couch.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:05 (seventeen years ago) link

Also on Comcast: "Rich Bitches"

danno martinez (danno martinez), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:08 (seventeen years ago) link

Also on Comcast: Cosplay Confessions.

God help us all.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:09 (seventeen years ago) link

"What cosplay character would I like to hook up with? I would have to say Lulu from Final Fantasy X..."

Here there be rofflz.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:12 (seventeen years ago) link

I had to look up cosplay.

danno martinez (danno martinez), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:16 (seventeen years ago) link

I'm sorry.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:18 (seventeen years ago) link

I actually think that cosplay is pretty neat. It's pretty creative and some of these weirdos are really talented. Some of them are really um, perverted, too.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:26 (seventeen years ago) link

Now Jeff is watching Dating on Demand. God, Comcast Cable is like the most amazing thing ever.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:33 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh my god this woman just said that she wanted somebody "fair skinneded."

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:34 (seventeen years ago) link

And her dream man is one who can hit her spot without her having to tell him anything.

She does hate it when people hum while they chew, which I can totally get behind.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:36 (seventeen years ago) link

You are sisters under the skinned.

Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:40 (seventeen years ago) link

No, wait, that's not right. It sounds...nevermind.

Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:43 (seventeen years ago) link

FEAR ME I AM WATCHING A HEROES MARATHON.

Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:44 (seventeen years ago) link

Uh oh. Retro Erotica time.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:46 (seventeen years ago) link

Porn seems positively charming when it's in black and white and narrated by the same guy who narrated "Lunchroom Manners."

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:53 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh how I long for the days when granny panties were sexy enough for pornos...

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 03:56 (seventeen years ago) link

I have never delve so deeply into On Demand. I have changed.

Jeff... (Jeff...), Thursday, 30 November 2006 04:43 (seventeen years ago) link

It's an amazing place.

danno martinez (danno martinez), Thursday, 30 November 2006 04:55 (seventeen years ago) link

Take, for example, the Comcast Personals video of "airmandude". He likes hanging out and drinking.

These are some of the most boring people in the world.

I got caught in the rain.

danno martinez (danno martinez), Thursday, 30 November 2006 05:18 (seventeen years ago) link

wait. admittedly, I am a little drunk. but I don't understand the karaoke channel. you watch people doing karaoke? or somehow you can do karaoke? if the latter: oh my god! I have Comcast On Demand. I am off to attempt karaoke on demand.

I can't tell you just how hard an evening it was. Ct and I were on the 151 bus when another bus broke down on Chicago, crossing Michigan, blocking all of the N. Bound traffic. We waited forever. Then we went to the book signing
and
waited...
for....
f...i...v...e.....
h...o...u...r...s....

Amy S3daris was funny and she signed our books, but shit, that was a long fucking night.

crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Thursday, 30 November 2006 06:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Also, we went to a place that Ct and I would like to propose as a TT location. It was Devon Seafood on Chicago and Rush (I think). It's ritzy-glitzy, but their happy hour is pretty damn great, especially the cheap-ass seafood apps. 1 Lb crab legs= $10. 1 Lb Maine lobster = $11.

crunkleJ (crunkleJ), Thursday, 30 November 2006 06:56 (seventeen years ago) link

i just read "notes from underground" today because of that 1001 books thread. i really liked it a lot.

t0dd swiss (immobilisme), Thursday, 30 November 2006 07:02 (seventeen years ago) link

Does Devon Seafood have $6.00 PBR buckets?

Jeff... (Jeff...), Thursday, 30 November 2006 12:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Devon Seafood could be good for when it's time to have fancy drinks.

Lance Rock (pullapartgirl), Thursday, 30 November 2006 13:42 (seventeen years ago) link

Kenan, I like the cut of yr glower.

Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 30 November 2006 13:52 (seventeen years ago) link

there will be no TT for me tonight as i will still be in western 'burbs watching house and spastic dog and one of the cuddliest cats i've ever met.

otto midnight (otto midnight), Thursday, 30 November 2006 14:02 (seventeen years ago) link

Otto! How long was yr commute this morning?!

Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 30 November 2006 14:08 (seventeen years ago) link

it was HALF the time, only 45 minutes. and 23 minutes of that was the walk from N's house to the oak park blue line stop. if i had access to a bike i could've biked to the train in probably 7 or 8 minutes or biked to work in about 25.

it's about 25 degrees colder than it was yesterday though and raining so that 23 minute walk seemed to take forever. it kind of made me blue walking through oak park last night and this morning, lots of good memories in that village. saturday i'm going to do some xmas shopping and walk through the old neighborhood and spy on the old apartments. let the self-flagellation begin!

otto midnight (otto midnight), Thursday, 30 November 2006 14:16 (seventeen years ago) link

Think of the extra sleep! Yay.

Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 30 November 2006 14:23 (seventeen years ago) link

Devon Seafood sounds nice, though I worry it might SMELL like seafood. Hmmm...

Why did you have to wait so long for the signing, Jesse? Were you early or was Sedaris late or was it just a long line??

I made pumpkin walnut bread to have for breakfast this morning, but I'm waiting for the coffee to finish brewing first.

Calico (calico), Thursday, 30 November 2006 14:25 (seventeen years ago) link

Just so you know, that pumpkin bread is fuckin delish - perfectly fluffy, moist, and flavorful. If only I had packed more!

Calico (calico), Thursday, 30 November 2006 14:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Hee hee. I'd seen that first one, but not the second.

Calico (calico), Thursday, 30 November 2006 15:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh man, I am supa jazzed. I just got the syllabus for my feminist jurisprudence class and I've already read half the books she assigned for it. Sweet!
