It's not for daisies that we search, but it isn't certain how you will react to it. We eat wrappers that refract in a crystalline but nonetheless suspicious sense of entitlement. Roundels aren't but one of the eaters at the platform, but irksome though a lack of common sense may be, I can't be bothered squaring away the clouds that drift so languorously overhead.
Sophie: Dad, I love you too much!
Me: Really? Why is that I wonder?
Sophie: (through laughter) It's because I am four and have too much love!

So Ben Folds wrote this achingly, powerfully beautiful piano riff for "Landed," and then followed it up with the most un-inventive, tired, lame vocal line imaginable. What a letdown.
In junior high and high school, all of my friends were church kids, all of us sons and daughters of very strict deacons and pastors: very good kids. Naturally, everyone who went off to non-Christian colleges or universities learned to swear like truckers 24/7.
The first Christmas home, I was over at my friend's hanging in the kitchen with his folks and brother when he looks at his brother and says, "Knock it off! That's so fucking annoying!" Conversation comes to a complete halt and he gasps and says, "Oh shit." Then looking completely mortified says, "Oh my God."
I don't think I'd ever laughed so hard in my life.
[That's for you, Eideteker, and don't worry, some people's brains just don't do random. Some of ours work more like chipmunks on crack.]
