Let The Music Tell The Story (Let’s Get Weird)

An Afternoon Comment Diversion / TK

Comment Diversions | December 17, 2008 | Comments (177)

Alright you freaks, it’s time to get to know each other a little better. But the truth is, I don’t particularly want to hear your problems or deepest fears or greatest loves. I could care less, especially since you’re all a bunch of goddamn sexually deviant lunatics who have urges so creepy and unnatural that you should probably be locked up en masse.

Actually… I guess I take that back. Y’all might just be my kind of people.

Anyway, an honest glimpse into each other’s souls might be more than we’re capable of handling. So instead, we’re going to learn about each other through my personal favorite way — music! Yes, I confess, I am a pretentious prick who judges people based on their musical choices. What can I say — I’m petty and assholish that way. Suck it up — and don’t act like you’re any different. In any event, the iPod meme has been floating around for a while, making it’s way through blogger and Facebook and whatever other way there is to avoid actual human contact (hey, I’m not judging — I’m as guilty as any of you reprobates).

So most of you probably know the rules: Put your MP3 Player / Music Player / Whatever you use to listen to music on shuffle. Then, answer each question with the next song that plays. No cheating to make yourself sound cool — we’re all whackjobs anyway, so really, who are you gonna impress? Some of it will make no sense, some of it will be awesome, some of it will be stupid.
Does that remind you of something? I know, I know — I was thinking “Stacey Nosek” too. Anyway, here — I’ll start (oh, and I picked a few random ones instead of posting all 45 questions):

1) What do you like in a guy/girl? “Raised By The Tide” — Maylene and the Sons of Disaster

2) What is your biggest secret? “Holy Wars… The Punishment Due” — Megadeth

3) How does the world see you? “Are You a Hypnotist?” — The Flaming Lips

4) What is your life’s purpose? “Soul Machine” — Cee-Lo Green

5) What is some good advice for me? “A Moment of Clarity” — Jay-Z

6) How will you die? “All the Same to Me” — Lucero

There you go. Remember, cheaters will be murdered in their sleep.

Have at it.

You geeks with your new-fangled music-playing machines! Some of us don't have IPods and can't play your stupid game, so there. I could get Pandora up and running, but that's not the same, since I don't pick the tunes.

So, pbbbbttt to all of you (except those of you who also don't have MP3 players, you can stay on my lawn).

Numbers 1 and 6 were appropriate... And if I could I'd replace 3 with 5, 4 with 3, and 5 with 4. Just to make the titles seem even weirdly more appropriate.

No but seriously, "Can't Break Her Fall" as "how you will die" is creeping me out a little.

Posted by: matt at December 17, 2008 4:49 PM

Don't own an Ipod. Don't own a CD player or a radio, unless you include the one that came standard in my Corolla. Believe it or not I do not own a single CD, and in my whole life I have only ever purchased 1 for myself. I have no idea where it has gone.
I listen only to the all classical station when I do have the radio on, which is usually at the stables where I train horses, and NPR in the car.
I really wonder what deep insights about Me you all can make from that.

During this holiday season, I am grateful for never experiencing this meme before. What awful, trite questions that lend themselves towards self-servicing, look how special I am answers.

6) How will you die? Hey Loretta - Loretta Lynn

Heh. Apparently I will die when I leave my husband and housework behind and go "swinging from the chandelier and bouncing off the wall, instead of loving just one man, I'm-a gonna love 'em all" There are worse ways to die.

This actually would have made some sense about 10 years ago. I guess I'm old enough that my ipod reflects who I used to be more than who I am right now.

And there you have it, ladies and gentlemen. I think it's inherently pretty hard to learn anything about someone from their 10,000 song music library, but from this I'd have to assume that I'm a ska/indie/punk girl. Which is true. People find few things more surprising than finding a 5'4" girl wearing a cashmere sweater in a circle pit.
