After a long weekend of indulging in (mostly sweet) delights at the amazing hippified nuptial celebration of our friends Alli and Erich in Massachusetts, I figured I’d check in with ya’ll, Sh*t L*st-style, to see what you’ve been eating this weekend. You know, you are what you eat, so let’s see what kind of person you are. If food be the music of love, grub on!
All right…coming off of that first edition of The Case for (Phil) Collins, I’ve been thinking a lot about what people consider ‘guilty pleasures’. I have a hard time using the word ‘guilty’ when it comes to appreciating music. It’s either pleasurable to you in some way or it’s not. So, I ask of you, can you present us with 5 of your guilty listening pleasures? Maybe even throw in one ‘innocent pleasure’ at the end…someone that you love to listen to that hardly anyone would argue with unless they’re a total grump-dog. So that’s six items total, after the jump…
Just to provide a little contrast to The Star-Room’s most recent List Listopherson, I decided that we need to talk about the BEST jobs we’ve had throughout our lives…since it’s Labor Day weekend and all. I don’t know if we can all come up with 5, but let’s give whatever we’ve got. I’ll try to get 5 down after the jump…
This is the second Sh*t L*sts post since its inception, so it’s still a very new concept…listing items that might typically remain loosely unorganized in the primordial ooze that is the grey matter of your brain. This should be simple though and won’t hurt a bit. What I want everyone to do is list the last 5 songs they willingly listened to. When I say willingly, I mean leave out the stuff you heard on the elevator at work or the carefully-selected hunger-inducing jams they played at Pax when you got lunch today. Basically, tell me the last 5 songs you heard on your iPod on your way to work or your iTunes at work, or your cassette player because you don’t have a job or you swear cassettes are making a comeback, or your turntable because, like me, you realized recently how good that old vinyl sounded…and, like me, you swear vinyl is making a comeback…or at least, it should!

Hey…I thought I’d add a little regular segment where we all get a chance to list some things, as an organized and convenient way to see what’s going on with eaches otherses worldeses. There’s nothing sh*tty about these lists, in particular (unless you want yours to be); I just couldn’t come up with a better segment title. So let’s get the lists started today with a list of 5 words that defined your weekend… (click ‘read the rest’ below to see mine and to add yers)
