“I guess this is growing up, you cunt.”
One time 20 years ago,
a dude I worked with found out I liked Radiohead
so he was like
“you should check out Jimmy Eat World”
even though that is a stupid thing to think
let alone say out loud to a person
and then he gave me a bunch of their music on compact disc
and I prayed for an aneurysm
to give me a way to extricate myself from the situation
but Jah does not work that way
so I had to just sit there groovin’ on it.
They make Semisonic sound like Slayer by comparison.
But in the musical wasteland of the early aughts
I’m sure to many they seemed like a great least worst option.
Was a dark time.
