  1. This book, America's Dream by Esmeralda Santiago, takes place on that island. It isn't very good.
  2. If it was one of their older albums, I'd agree with you. They've always been too sugary for me, but this one is possibly the darkest album I've heard in years.
  3. Of Montreal - Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer Can't stop listening to this. Very consistently satisfying for the past three or four or five months.
  4. I think that, in ethics, something like that is called moral subjectivism? But it's not that stuff was "meant" for human use and only human use, it's that without humans, nothing else holds any value. So it might not be that at all.
  5. And really, to miss it by 14 days? It seems pretty stupid not to do it. It would be lame, sure, but it would also be memorable, free promotion.
  6. I downloaded Mario Kart 64 last night. Not quite as fun as I remember it, but of course I didn't have four people to play it with, either. I wish they would take the hour it would take and add online modes to some VC games. If emulators can do it, I don't see any reason why Nintendo can't.
  7. Exactly. Way too serious (read: not catchy or fun in any capacity) of an album.
  8. I would go but A ) I have no idea where I'll be in May and B ) I don't think I want to pay that kind of $. Hopefully he tours on his own in the summer or fall or something.
  9. I really want to grab WarioWare but I think I'll have to rent it for now. I'm on the verge of buying a Macbook which will clean me out for months to come.
  10. If Harry Potter was alive today, he'd probably be put to death. Boy wizards never get their due.
  11. This album is still terrible in my opinion. Thought it might grow a bit, but it hasn't. I have a hard time making it through the first half without shutting it off.
  12. These are the important questions. From what I hear, the thing barely works with a gig of ram. What the fuck were they thinking? And why does OS X, which is essentially what they copied, not steal all of your ram? Couldn't they have copied that aspect, too? Also, Alison, I didn't read that review yet, but if it is positive, it is kind of hard to trust given the source.
  13. I have a Wii but it hasn't been touched in months (stay out of the gutter, peeps). I don't find that I have the time for it right now. I'm thinking about selling mine right now because, as I understand it, you still can't get them and then buying one after I graduate and have the time to play video games. I probably won't actually do it, but I think about it. Probably going to get Mario Kart 64 for the VC this weekend. Maybe Contra 3 or A Link to the Past, too. Also, is anybody else excited about Cooking Mama or am I alone?
  14. I think I'm already in this camp. The highs might not be quite as high as they were on Funeral, but I actually like every song on this new one.
  15. And I think that sounds good.. NP: Loose Fur - Loose Fur
  16. Yeah, I grabbed it and figured out what it was. Doesn't sound too bad, but I'm excited for a real leak soon. All of that quality stuff aside, the record sounds pretty good after one listen. Quite a bit different than I expected it to sound, but from what I gathered, that isn't a bad thing at all.
  17. I getting more and more willing to accept a transcode.
  18. My thirst will not be satisfied by some silly transcode. I need full-flavored Neon Bible.
  19. I'm the compromiser. To the max. I also hardly ever sleep well, so take it for what you will.
  20. Finally got around to seeing this. Couldn't recommend it more. Stellar film. Really reminded me of the Diary of Anne Frank and/or In the Aeroplane Over the Sea for some reason. Hopefully I will find the time and money to go see it again.
  21. The year is still obviously young, but I imagine it will hang around for me as well. Though, for only being January, this year is shaping up to be very strong.
  22. I listen to this a lot more than I thought I would when I grabbed it 900 years ago or whenever it leaked. Not what I expected, but super good regardless. Might have to get that super vinyl edition.
