Wait! Do Brits, um, use the obligatory "um"? And I totally used the word poindexter in the last thing that I wrote! I had no idea that I was copping an ornery sidewalk, as the Aussies like to say.

I feel bad for Jim Thirlwell. Only about 4 people ever gave a shit about him and he was never Swans or Nick Cave or Elvis Presley that's for sure. He really really wanted to be an icon for the ages or something like Iggy, but alas, the bargain bin is his home.

― Scott Seward, Monday, 17 March 2003 03:39 (twenty-three years ago)

He does get an "A" for effort.

― Citizen Fred (Citizen Fred), Monday, 17 March 2003 03:53 (twenty-three years ago)

I wholeheartedly agree.

"sophomore effort" for second album.
And don't let's get started on the whole "REM is/REM are" debate...
