Country music. That twangy sound is super grating to me, I hate the way certain vowels get stretched out, plus I have no cultural touchpoints with it on either a lyrical or musical level. The stuff that seems most popular is the most obnoxious to me. I’m told this is “the Nashville sound”. Different strokes for different folks, but I sincerely don’t get the appeal of it.

But there’s some country-adjacent music that can be alright. E.g., my husband got really into Sturgill Simpson and I ended up more or less liking his Sound and Fury album, even if some of the vocals do have that irritating twang. I guess I’d consider that more like country-infused rock.

And I guess some older country can be OK once in a while - e.g., Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton.

Ringtone? My dude, the only people I know who have their ringer volume on are all in their seventies.

You from NJ?

Glaw-stuh-shur, correct?

Halo is precious! What a cool thing to do 🤍

Honestly Mr Slater can get it. I always thought he was hot but then came Mr. Robot and I was like ‘yes please’!

Wow, this made me realize I haven’t seen mayo in a glass jar in years.

Bob Dylan - Hurricane (which actually became a movie starring Denzel Washington in 1999).

The 5th Dimension were amazing. I really like Wedding Bell Blues and Stoned Soul Picnic, but Age of Aquarius is such an instantly recognizable song across generations :)

I don’t think tattoos have been about rebellion in a long time. It’s just art for your body.

You can consider it a filter. Anyone who can’t understand you not drinking on a first date probably isn’t compatible with you. Not because of their drinking preferences but because of their unwillingness to respect your choices.

Is all my brain and body need

Something like a Barcade or axe throwing joint

Do people still say that?

Billy Idol! I’m not sure how many times I’ve seen him, at least 8 but probably more like 10-11. Two of those times I got meet-and-greet tickets so I’ve got two pics of me and my husband with Billy and Steve Stevens :)

I committed to sleeping in a silk bonnet every night, and my hair is so much nicer now :)

Also lab-grown meat. If we could replace meat from animals with meat grown in a lab, I think a lot of meat-eaters would make the switch. Currently lab-grown is pretty expensive from what I understand, but over time it should get cheaper as the technology becomes more widespread.

Not even any fine lines? Hard to believe.

I actually do call it the elbowpit
