  • But wait! When searching for your song you also get: 1) some girl in her basement playing a cover on piano, 2) some dude in his bedroom playing a cover on guitar, 3) some lonely divorcee's ripped version where lyrics scroll across static images of sunsets, 4) some crappy handheld video taken from the back row of a shitty venue from 2009. What a bargain!

  • It's a solid solution only if someone ponies up the money to pay for the incredible effort it takes to convert an office building into residences. Waving your hands in the air and telling someone else to pay for it is not a good argument.

  • I lived near a CVS that was constantly targeted for crime. It's closing this month, and I honestly can't imagine how it stayed open this long.

    You can pretend it's packaged bullshit, but until you live in a city and experience it first-hand, you'll stay in your pretty make-believe world.

  • I try my hardest to find new songs, because I don't want to be some boomer bastard.

    I got news for you, pal. The harder you try to be young and hip for the sake of being young and hip, the worse the outcome will be. You're not getting any younger, and the sooner you accept that, the better.

    Instead of forcing yourself to listen to music that has the single attribute of "released less than 6 months ago" in some sad, vain attempt to relive your glory days, try exploring music based on what you actually enjoy. What artists inspire you? Who influenced them, and what genres influenced their sound? Where did the roots of that sound originate? If a song you love is a cover, who wrote or performed the original? What style of singing is it, or what kind of beat?

    Listen to what you want to listen to. The most interesting conversations I have with people about music always involve the history and roots of sound, not that last hip shit my aging hipster Lyft driver subjected me to.

  • It was a dense and difficult article to read, so it's likely you missed the subject and the overall point that was being made. The article was not about how this woman should write a eulogy, or whether it's preferred to write a eulogy using one of a variety of media, including a laptop, pen and paper, or dictation. Nor was it about why one may need to order a laptop even though one may already have access to the Internet and word processing software through other electronic devices. Rather, the article was about the laptop she ordered through Amazon being stolen by the person making the delivery. In other words, no matter what the reason was for buying the laptop, the laptop would have still been stolen. Does that help? I sure hope it does.

  • That's so odd to me, too. I'm notified when the buzzer goes off. I would hear the buzzer before I heard my phone.

    And who needs to be notified immediately when a cycle is done? I'm lucky if my laundry doesn't sit there for hours after I've heard the buzzer and said to myself, I should do that laundry.
