I once knew a dude who put on headphones and would listen to... the recorded dialogue from Stanley Kubrick films. I'm pretty sure he literally never listened to music.

Keith Jones is anti music.

Edit: Everyone has their own, unique taste in music, but I will never understand people who actively hate it. That is so foreign to me.

Fun thoughts from the floor of a hospital room at like 2-5am:


1) what's the psychological science behind hospitals use boring Beige point in delivery rooms? Why not fun colors? It's always amazing that despite hospitals always feeling like a prison with stainless and bland colors...they never do anything to change it.

2) there's about 60 linear feet of counter space in here. Am I getting a breakfast spread? What gives?

3) why is the spouse bed approximately 4 inches off the ground?

4) Furthermore, why is it the most uncomfortable thing known to man?

5) why isn't there better soundproofing? Noone who isnt yet in labor wants to hear someone else go into labor and deliver. Especially at 3 am.

6) hospital linens are awful. I know there's a hygienic piece to consider here but when you're gonna have people locked up for 4 days or so, why wouldn't you invest in something a little better?

7) I take back my uncomfortable bed thing. It's uncomfortable, but im not about to birth a bowling ball, so I guess I can manage.

8) I wonder how the cat is going to take to not being the only other living thing in the house. Not well is my guess.

9) I'm not a small dude, but im going to need to daisy chain these hospotal towels together to take a shower tomorrow. They're the size of hand towels, but I've been assured they "are our regular towels".
Hospital linens are washed,bleached and starched daily. They have to be heavy duty.

So a couple weeks back we were having the discussion about Ticketmaster which was obviously brought about by Taylor Swift and the Swifties losing their mind.

I had another run in with TM this week. I will say once again, I don’t find any fault by TM for supply issues. Not everyone is entitled to tickets and it’s no different than any other sought after item. Any and all websites have issues when sought after things drop.

With that all said… I have a major issue with how they price things now with their Dynamic Pricing. I bought a pair of tickets to a show for ~$600 total. I went back in twenty minutes later because there was a six ticket maximum so I figured I’d see what was still available. At that point the tickets in the same area as the ones I bought were $600 EACH. That’s a god damn racket.
It's hilarious to me that the ticketmaster thing caused such an outrage when this has been going on for literally 15 years lol
