how can i get hep to the chococat? i never really looked at the mefimusic before →[More:] but i was flitting around it earlier and found some songs i'd really like to have, like some of the chococats and a viola bit, etc. etc.
it's been a long and crapatacious day and i was hoping to sleep in a little. This may be something really simple or something i need my other comp for or all really old hat or some such, but now at least you can have another quick listen to something with handclaps.

Maybe I'm not understanding the question, but you mean how do you d/l the songs, yah? maybe?

If that's what you do mean, click on the hyperlinked date (posted on blahblah) which'll take you to the song's page, and then there's a little icon of a blue floppy disk that you can right-click on and do a "Save as..." and you're good to go.

poop.
this means i'd have to be a user, eh?

thank you for reminding me about Mr. Perfect Pop Nugget. I can download them for you and put them somewhere if you like?

That would be more than lovely if you're really willing. You could stick them right here if you want.
i haven't picked through enough of them for a comprehensive list of any kind but i do like chococat, that one viola cuban number and a litlenemo(?)... maybe stuff you like or that people want to share/draw attention to?
i do really need to try and catch a few hours sleep (before i start posting odd things on craiglist) but you're a doll for offering.

maybe i'll be back on in a few hours

I've got a bunch of mp3 files of all of the chococat stuff up on my personal webspace - is there a way I can privately send you the link, ethylene?

posted by By the Grace of God 07 December | 07:48

It's kind of hard to go wrong with the chococat. I wish he'd post more.

The samples are free. Then suddenly you're a customer for life.

Chocolat, pour vous.

Grace, you can email me if you want. i'm me on gmail. Thanks.

I don't get it, ethylene. Theres an ethylene on metafilter. Is that not you?

p.s. on looking further, I see that you recently made the sacreligious statement "Is HBO ever gonna have anything worth watching again?" while The Wire has one more season left and Deadwood is barely cold on the slab. Perhaps we're living in parallel universes, and it's only in yours that you don't have a mefi account.

are you kidding me?
i haven't been on mefi for a good freaking long while now.
are you sure there isn't some hidden letter chicanery?
link it.

posted by ethylene 08 December | 05:10

ok, now some weird things people have been saying are starting to make some sense, except now i have more questions--
i don't know how i feel about this.

posted by ethylene 08 December | 05:13

Link sent to you eth!

posted by By the Grace of God 08 December | 05:43

Well, it's obviously here.

You hadn't noticed this before? The other you has probably been getting emails meant for you for a year. Unless the other you is actually you.

posted by bingo 08 December | 05:48

thanks, grace, i'm trying to load them now.

bingo is your name-o, and, yes, that was me but it hasn't been active for a good long while.
i had a reflexive angrying up of the blood for a second there. No biggie except it has totally kncoked me out of my fake french groove.
oh well.

posted by ethylene 08 December | 05:52

ethylene, I don't get it. Unless mathowie has perma-banned you, it's active enough that you can use it to download songs from music.metafilter.

posted by bingo 08 December | 05:56

bingo, bingo, a long long time ago.
i don't know why i have to keep saying this.
What confuses me is people commenting favorably on things i supposedly wrote on mefi when i obviously haven't.
Maybe it's the same reason i get things like this in my mail:

Mention poodles equally, interested two use capital letters new! Poodles equally, interested two use capital letters new zealand.
Exception, is very common such?

Anybody lives in a pretty how town.

posted by bingo 08 December | 06:38

great. i don't know what that means but it's turning into a song in my head.
stupid lack of recording equipment.
stupid people who've got my computer hostage.

posted by ethylene 08 December | 07:16

In that case, here are some suggested lyrics. I misquoted slightly

posted by bingo 08 December | 07:33

i think i like mine better but i'll probably change my mind some time after i forget i cared.

posted by ethylene 08 December | 07:52

I like yours better too. Except for that one part, where, you know.

posted by bingo 08 December | 08:02

dirty!

you said we wouldn't speak of it again!

hmm.
now i kinda want an ipod.

posted by ethylene 08 December | 08:33

Is that the same ipod you used to want, only it wasn't really you, and you got banned, or was that the one with the....

cats?

is there a question in there?

The train is being momentarily held by the dispatcher. We apologize for the bink bink ding-ding whoosh.

*begins translating ethylene's finger signs into interpretive dance*

posted by bingo 08 December | 10:29

Careful
that ding-ding whooshing is where all the trouble starts.

posted by ethylene 08 December | 10:44

Everything it seems I like's a little bit stronger, a little bit thicker, a little bit harmful.

are we talking about god's penis again?

posted by ethylene 08 December | 11:55

I don't play reed organs. But what if he was just a stranger on the bus? That would be totally gross.

posted by bingo 08 December | 12:00

Grosser than Danny Bonaduce and bumfights?
Grosser than things i keep deleting that keep me stalling on hitting post because i don't want to make ugly word pictures in people's heads?

bingo, what are you doing?
is it fun?
is it more fun where you are?
i bet it's more fun than a Wheeeee!!!
Would i need to find a decent drug suppier to join in?
Will you be coming down by time i do?

posted by ethylene 08 December | 12:12

bingo, can i buy an l?
Can i put it between the p and the i?
bingo, are you there?
America, when can i buy groceries with my good looks?
America, it cold outside.

posted by ethylene 08 December | 12:14

is, bingo
it is.

posted by ethylene 08 December | 12:15

Bonaduce showed up for work in the middle of a 30-day juice fast. True story; I was paid to watch the footage.

As far as the p and the i, you're talking about an irrational number, so there's room to insert anything you choose, as long as it doesn't hang below the lower-case g or jut above the serifs on the capital W.

You can buy groceries with your looks now, but we show that you haven't uploaded a photo to start an account. Let me know when it's done and I'll credit you the appropriate amount of cauliflower.

The cold, yes. I know it's winter when women start inexplicably smiling at me on the subway, and then I see my reflection and remember that it's the furry hat.

posted by bingo 08 December | 12:23

aww
well, now i think you're cute, too.
except i think my mecha crush is suppose to be goodnewsfortheinsane since Hugh Janus fell in love.
or the other way around. Someone should check the roster and let me know who my assigned crush is.
But i don't think he's actually available either, but then no one really is.

It's also very possible our fuzzy hats would get into angry competition that would turn into an aggressive mating dance, which is bad for the hair.

bingo, you are keeping me from my laundry and that's not such a bad thing.

posted by ethylene 08 December | 12:52

Lucky for your laundry, I'm in meetings the rest of the day. But there will be time for visions and revisions.
