KISS has several songs sung from the point of view of an adult wanting to have sex with a teenager, so this all tracks.

If your day is going poorly, revel in the fact that you didn’t just yell, “GDammit, you fuck!” at your locked car in full earshot of a woman walking to her car after church.

I’ve just watched two random movies from the 1980s and they both featured Fabulous Thunderbirds songs. Just an observation, not trying to start anything.

I think one of the worst opening lines for a hard rock song would be: “Despite what you heard, I can go all night.”

Starch. We eat it it, but we also spray it on our clothing?

Is it uncool for me to say, “What did you do?” to a guy carrying a bouquet of flowers?

I’m in Denver and I’m wondering if anyone in Metallica wants to help me psych up for tomorrow’s Elvis Costello show on their night off.

Reading Exodus/Slayer guitarist Gary Holt’s memoir. They had “get back” meth. Meth you smoke when you get back home.

“Jaws” premiered 50 years ago today. That iconic line, “This boat needs to be waaaaay bigger,” is just as relevant as it was then.

Streaming Macalester's graduation to see Bob Mould speak and it's so great -- currently a student band called She's In Shambles (which is a great name) is covering Hüsker Dü's "Makes No Sense at All" in a cool lo-fi punk way! www.macalester.edu/commencement/

I was furious at the guy talking loudly on his phone in this Kalamazoo Denny’s until I realized he’s turned his booth into a makeshift office and he’s booking stars to appear at a Star Trek convention.

I think one of the weirdest song lyrics would be: “My ears are ringing and my thing is stinging because I just had sex at a Motörhead concert.”
