    Falling Fauna

    why are most of those dogs chihuahuas? I always associated those with bad health, always picking a fight, and coyote bait. They always seem like they have parkinson's. The oldest one being a livestock guardian dog makes way more sense. And the other older two as cattle dogs, yes.

    So .. What Do You Watch On TV?

    Everybody's been clowning Last of Us for their outside shot of "10 miles west of Boston" and it's portrayed like the Canadian wilderness. Y'all it's not like that at all; more like a couple Dunkin Donuts and a couple dozen pubs within walking distance, like a normal Boston suburb. I haven't watched the show yet... behind on everything. I was intrigued by my supposed familiarity with the setting but that ain't it.
  5. I feel like he'd get in if they bundled up his nomination with chic somehow. it would override jann's hatred.
  6. More people participating who are sympathetic to Jackson? Lack of hearing that particular song all the time? There's some songs I downvote the shit out of due to being sick of hearing some corny person sing it at karaoke every week.

  8. This counting individual songs and not albums explains why we're seeing an awful lot of stocking stuffer music. (and I suspect Eurovision?)

    Missing In Action

    https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/01/31/us/detroit-rappers-missing/index.html 3 rappers have been missing for 10 days since their scheduled performance was canceled, Detroit police say Armani Kelly, 28, Dante Wicker, 31 and Montoya Givens, 31, who are all associates, were supposed to perform at a club in Detroit on January 21
  10. Pump Up the Volume was on Jock Jams so def has a 90s memory for me.

    Famous celebrity births , pregnancies and babies

    I was wondering why would you name your child something that you deliberately think will receive nonstop backlash? and then go ahead and make it your first headline about the kid? but then I read her wiki. Hague suggested that those less fortunate than herself in their upbringing only had themselves to blame for their lack of financial stability, stating that "we all have the same 24 hours in a day".

    Mysterious thread…

    Baldwin was the producer, was in charge of cutting corners both via time and money, and skipped mandatory firearms trainings himself. In the couple weeks leading up, there were some misfirings and safety complaints on set. He seems negligent at best and shouldn't be running a set like that. That armorer shouldn't work again.

George Michael is likely a finalist anyway.

    Opera

    Most opera is in Italian and French anyway, so I figure an opera fan could make out a few of those words. Why bother translating it into English?

    Dead Pop Stars

    Crappers for rap. But where does r&b go?

    Katie Price

    The Kardashian/Jenners are another group that I long thought were hooked on the drugs supplied during plastic surgery. One of Kanye's rants indicated as much.

This list doesn't match mine. There's songs that SirC mentioned, but also The Cars and Van Halen and Ghostbusters, or Huey Lewis Sports and Morris Day and Cyndi Lauper carrying over? I wouldn't necessarily upvote all of them but they're memorable. The year began with Michael Jackson's hair on fire and ended with the Jacksons' finale. There's also all those good indie records but I did not expect to see them here.
