I don't know that my absolute favorite artist has a bad song. But here are a few songs I hate by artists that I love:

Bloc Party (original lineup/first 4 albums): 3 x 3. Not sure why, just feels anxious in a bad way? Always a skip for me.

Keane: Ishin Denshin (You've Got To Help Yourself). This is a cover from an EP so maybe too deep of a cut, but man do I hate this track. Just feels cloying and awkward. Like they were trying to recreate the original but were too in awe of it.

Peter Bjorn and John: The Feeling. The first track from their true followup to Writer's Block. Just feels like it's a song that's weird for the sake of being weird.

I think a significant part of this problem is that, from what we can see in the photo, they 100% should have pulled forward so that they didn't entirely block the sidewalk. Someone coming through there on a wheelchair or with a stroller would have a real bad time. It also looks like it's out in the road a little, which is very inconsiderate as well.

Well yeah, but what this image doesn't mention is what would happen to the shareholders if we had paid leave for all in the US 😰 /j

Gen Z job seekers should be allowed to steal everything this person owns.

So what's the main advantage of this over F-Droid? Theoretically more secure?

To this day, I love to suggest my tech friend switch to Lindows as a joke. Still kills if they get it, otherwise I have to explain "so it's this old Linux distribution..."

I know there is a wide variety of times but I feel like 2/3rds of the farmer's markets near me are at inconvenient times for me. "3-7PM on a weekday" nope, "8AM-12PM on sunday" MAYBE if I wake up early and am feeling adventurous.

I've done it once or twice in the early days to see what was up, never since then.

I read this article and my main takeaway was: that Bling Bling song sucks.

How many turn signals do we think are going to be used during this convoy?

 

Whether it be to do your job, get your schoolwork done, clean your house, work on your creative passion, etc.

Bonus points if you're someone without reasonable self-control so saying something like "I can only have a cookie after I do this/while I do this" doesn't work for you and you're just going to eat the cookie and not do it.
