sucks: pantyhose


I am an actor and I often have to wear pantyhose.
I hate them so much.
Pantyhose suck.
They are expensive, itchy, pinchy, they run, they smell, they suck.

Please do me a favour and do not google 'pantyhose' because I did, for this post, and it is mostly fetish sites.

Anyway, in the words of one of my favourite Public Radio Hosts,

HANG IT UP, PANTYHOSE!

rules: home alone!

what i know about why this rules:
show me a person who doesn't like home alone (or its superior sequel, home alone 2: lost in new york) and i will show you a person with no heart, soul or taste in anything. period.

WHAT I KNOW ABOUT WHY THIS RULES:
1. This song is featured in a joke in "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia" in the episode "Sweet Dee Has A Heart Attack" Season 4 Episode 10. Download it.

2.Wah wah wee wah remember casey had the yo la tengo tote and you had the sonic youth tote?

6. This is music made by guys who 'grew up' (formed mentally) listening to Animal Colective.

9. I LOVE THIS BAND AND THEIR NAME. They are really influenced by the Beach Boys (i think? Jesse Thorn talked about them on the Sound of Young America) and this song reminds me of a picture I drew of Brian Wilson's vocal chords in college.

15. Remember when we got drunk and wrote that song about how we wished Chan would start drinking again so she'd make better music? You're about 4 summer's too late, We Are Trees. (but this is still a good song.)

16. this is epic.
