Wait. Hold on. So, you're telling me the stars are not gonna align. Like … ever? Then, what the ever-loving fuck have I been waiting for all this time?

"Chillax."
When she's seeing red, and you simply must sate your curiosity as to whether the visible spectrum captured by her eyes extends all the way into the infrared, try saying, with an overly exaggerated sense of serenity, "Chillax."

A band I remember really wanting to like, but not really listening to (I got to them too late (and remember, all we had in front of us was album art, copyright year, and the occasional track list)).

Wait … how many songs about the desensitization of the American psyche, via the injection of sexual violence into mainstream entertainment media, to the brutalization of women were your rock stars writing when you were coming up?

Y'all, if it takes much longer for my philosociopolitical illustrated essays to be discovered by the audience they deserve (read them, then #HumbleMe), Imma be back onto music by then and it'll morph into a philosociopolitical animated essay recitation rock opera.
To be fair, even the bands that were making the songs stopped making them like that save for the one, impeccable model of true growth in musical artistry: @radiohead

If you're following along, and younger than Gen X, then … no … they do/did not write songs like that anymore. I am sorry that part of your youth was stripped for parts, reduced down to the fewest workable components, and then produced en masse to grab your 10 sec attention span.

Y'all, we used 2 have 2 stop at the record shop while at the mall, purchase the cassette (rectangular thing w/ the album's songs etched into the spooled tape), pop it into the car stereo deck on the way home, & then find out there was only the 1 fucking song worth hearing.
