Re: TRP: Holidays and New Years Resolutions

I assume there is also a block of cheese on his head. :D

Or a dead deer on his (rooster).


And "Yield" (the full album) by Pearl Jam is such a top 5 all time, it's sick. Balance, quality, etc......Goddam it's good.

I'm going to respectfully disagree, and counter with Ten.
 
Re: TRP: Holidays and New Years Resolutions

Are you a Packer fan?

Recognize, b*tch.

Drunk? Check.
Idiot? Check.

Yep.

Drunk? Working on it.
Idiot? I'm posting in this thread, aren't I?

I assume there is also a block of cheese on his head. :D

Not currently. Only during the Holy Time on Sundays.

It definitely explains a lot...

It explains how my Grandma would have had me euthanized at birth if she'd have known that her grandson would be a Viking fan. So, I guess fear is my motivating factor. We're talking about a woman who came out of an eight day induced coma due to a blood clot in the junction of her aorta and within two hours was b*tching about the Packers WRs dropping passes.

Or a dead deer on his (rooster).

I leave the deer *ing to the country folk. We city folk just throw down on ugly chicks.:D

Dam fine album, listened to that on a loop for well, all night while playing NHL on the Genesis with friends when it first came out. However, Yield had such a tight sound like "Low Light", with some "interludes" like "Push Me Pull Me" that really made the album one big awesome musical experience.

Yeah, I don't think Yield even makes my top 5 PJ albums: Riot Act, Vitalogy, Ten, Vs, Pearl Jam. I'd put it in the same grouping with Binaural and No Code, solid, with some great songs, but not overly spectacular.
 
Re: TRP: Holidays and New Years Resolutions

Hence your wife? :eek:



(had to do it)

I gave up ugly chicks back in '04. Cold turkey.

And my wife is a Tech 19.

Even you could get laid in Superior, 'Hoven. "Forklift Operator" in Superior = "Hedge Fund Manager" in Manhattan:D

Whoa whoa whoa. Binaural and No Code? That's just silly.:eek:

Vitalogy, I could see. Vs (overall, mind you, not song-by-song) struck me as a more "generic" (as generic as PJ could get) album. Loved it, of course, but not their best.

Yield really got me back into superfandom, rather than big fan area. I dunno why. I can't explain. But that is one album I will NEVER get tired of hearing from beginning to end. Ever.

I've seen the girls in Soup-Town. I want no part of that. :p

And I'm not MNS. I've gotten mine. ;)

Yeah, but did you see the Hot Chick in Superior? I saw her twice. No one believed me.

tHC is much like Bigfoot.....lots of reported sightings, but nothing that can be substiated. :D

I love the sound and feel of Vitalogy (with the exception of the "weird" songs, but they're easily skipped). I don't think they captured it again until Riot Act. Those are my 2 favorite PJ albums, and Riot Act is up there on my all-time list, as well. And I pretty much completely disagree with your assessment of Vs.

I put Yield in with Binaural and No Code (I think I like No Code more than Yield), as they're albums I will listen to occasionally, and really like, but won't go out of my way to listen to, and may jump around the albums.

EDIT: And all that all of this means is that I have to make sure my iPod has all of my PJ on it, so that I can spend the entire day tomorrow listening to Pearl Jam. Pretty sure I have (way) more than 8 hours worth, though. Maybe just the studio albums...

I like the wierd songs because a) they're entertaining b) it provides, like I mentioned, an "interlude" of sorts.

Vs (compared to the other PJ albums; again, this is a critical point) is definitely the most "generic" of the albums, IMO. How many radio-friendly songs (ok, I admit, this could be a flaw in my argument) are on that album?

I guess, when I wanna hear some PJ, but don't know exactly what to put in, it always falls back to Yield. There's just something about it.....
 
Re: TRP: Holidays and New Years Resolutions

He lost some from me...which is hard to do since he didn't have any in the first place. That all went out the door the moment I met him. :D

It's not like I've gotten completely shut out...:p just mostly

I'm pretty sure you didn't rate it at a Tech 5 in performance thanks to her, due to the story you had. :p

So if I were you, I'd probably discount that.
 
Re: TRP: Holidays and New Years Resolutions

Less than on Yield. :p

Of the 12 songs on Vs, I could see all of them being "radio-friendly" except WMA, Blood, and Rats. Of the 13 tracks on Yield (not counting the hidden one at the end), I could see all but . and Push Me, Pull Me played. 11 > 9 This, like everything else we've discussed, is, of course, subject to opinion.

In any case, I think we can both agree on this: Pearl Jam effin' rules.

It's like if there was a delayed penalty on Tech and their opponent scored own goal when they have an extra attacker...not sure how it happened, but with how little they score, they'll count it. :o
