Whatever happened to good music?

If "Go ogle" is a sufficient sentence, why would the lack of a tiny space so infuriate some?

I grew up using a mangle and, bereft of it, I still miss it.

I just visited Poland. Wyszkow, and Pila.

Cool country...I noticed how the younger generation are really standing up for change.

Nice, reminds my of some of the Rugburns tunes...

Um, that's the whole point of the lyrics, is it not? The utter pointlessness of the egocentric "if people see me, I exist" culture of today.

Ok, I read the article and now I remember what it was about. Contrary to others here it ruins the song for me. The person it's about is just another egomaniac trying to get into the spotlight. BFD.

According to the latest edition of the Oxford American Dictionary, Google is acceptable as a verb. English is an ever-evolving language, my friend.

couldn't agree more

Ahem...since the word "verb" is a single, countable noun you need a determiner, in this case the indefinite article, "a." Your admonishment should have read "It's not a damn verb."

People in glass saunas shouldn't throw stones.

P.S. Google is a verb.

Settle down there pup. It's just an expression. If we watch Conjunction Junction, What's your Function . . . maybe someday it may be a verb.

Google it, mate.

This is frigging hilarious!

I had a friend who dressed up as soy bomb for halloween.

Ha ha! This is the first time I've heard this song. I immediately knew who Soy Bomb was. I don't know why, but I was actually watching the Grammys that night. Probably about the last time I did!

Shame really, would have meant a little more perhaps.

Having read all the posts, it's just taken on another dimension. I've been a fan of the post-modern irony of Eels since I heard Novocaine for the Soul back in the mid 90s. This is the first track I've heard from the latest offering and I might just have to get on Amazon now (linking from RP of course)......

I always really liked this song, but now I've read through the posts and read the Soy Bomb story, I love this song!

Thank you, O diligent researchers and bringers of knowledge to the ignorant masses of hum-along music fans!

The "Soy Bomb" -- Kikkoman's secret doomsday weapon!

Also, it has a Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) air.

Good music, but what a silly song. . .
