Amanda made this point to me as well. I’m going to confess that I don’t have any extra-textual knowledge of Weezer but clearly you guys do.

Noted, but we’ll see what you’re saying (to your 27-year-old 2nd wife) when you get to where I am. Considering Helen Mirren’s showing all her stuff and in comparison, I ain’t that old. And yeah, I forgot about Hit ‘Em Up perfect opening, thinking only about what 2Pac thinks of my body.

Y’know, since first listening to it I always thought that “No One Else” was meant to be laced with irony, in the same style as “The One I Love”. But now, considering both Weezer’s subhuman level of post-Pinkerton sophistication and the stories I’ve heard about how Rivers Cuomo treats women, I think you’re right: that song is straight-up appalling.

I have absolutely no guilt about loving “Hit ‘Em Up.” I pray only that I have sex with the girlfriends or wives of my portlier enemies, just so I can, with justice, yell out that perfect insult…

Lunch hour fun. I hate myself that I play AND LOVE:

1. Down Ass Bitch - Ja Rule: Pretty pretty guitar.
2. How Do U Want It - 2Pac: ‘Cause 2Pac thinks my body’s bangin’ and an old chick takes what she can get.
3. Hit ‘Em Up - 2Pac: Almost as scary as Mad!Spence.
4. Los Angeles - Sugarcult: Girls always talk back and sex always has a catch.
5. Your Husband Is Cheating on Us - Denise LaSalle: Yeah, grrrl.

Yeah, that’s a real secret shame, bested only by calls for such lyrics to be prevented somehow.

At least Skrewdriver had to come to terms with the poetic justice of where they ended up.

The mean mistreaters club will probably escape comeuppance of that quality.

Uhhhh, just picture me as McCain trying to talk about insurance coverage for birth control. I’m old and speechless on this topic!
