@fredley Ow my head hurts now

Thanks for that

kalina

@fredley this shouldn't go down well

after the fourth spice girls song in a row there would be a meta post to have it removed again

fredley

@kalina Spice girls? MLP related songs much more likely.

kalina

@fredley I would play spice girls

fredley

@kalina :(

kalina

13:09

@fredley for this specific reason

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

@kalina If that's your reason I think MLP songs would be better

fredley

@kalina :(

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Especially those shitty remixes that take 30 second songs from the show, repeats every syllabus 20 times to stretch out the remix to 6 minutes and add a nasty techno loop on the back. Dupstep optional.

kalina

@YiJiang'sEvilClone disagree, everybody knows the lyrics to spice girls songs, even if they hate them with a passion

even if they don't admit they know, they're burned into everybody's memory

once they hear them again they'll get stuck

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Just play the MLP theme over and over and over again. I don't think anyone can stand that.

kalina

13:15

I love the MLP theme

kalina

@fredley well I wouldn't want to lure you into a false sense of security

@BoltClock Steam... What are you doing?

OrigamiRobot

@fredley None of those are tapes. They just have tape in the name because they resemble tape.

@fredley Unless it's sticky, it's ribbon.

badp

@fredley I mean, Steam already lets you play games you don't own and purchase them with one click pretty frequently. It's called "free weekends."

@OrigamiRobot Incorrect. Magnetic tape?

Tea (meal)

Tea can refer to any of several different meals or mealtimes, depending on a country's customs and its history of drinking tea. However, in those countries where the term's use is common, the influences are generally those of the former British Empire (now the Commonwealth of Nations). Tea as a meal can be small or large. United Kingdom and Ireland Elevenses Elevenses is a snack that is similar to afternoon tea, but eaten in the morning. It is generally less savoury than brunch, and might consist of some cake or biscuits with a cup of coffee or tea. Afternoon tea / low tea Aftern...

Dead Like Me

Dead Like Me is an American comedy-drama television series starring Ellen Muth and Mandy Patinkin as grim reapers who reside and work in Seattle, Washington. Filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia, the show was created by Bryan Fuller for the Showtime cable network, where it ran for two seasons (2003–04). Fuller left the show five episodes into Season 1 because of creative differences; creative direction was taken over by executive producers John Masius and Stephen Godchaux. A direct-to-DVD movie titled Dead Like Me: Life After Death was released on February 17, 2009, with an option to re...

Why did Showtime cancel the show anyway?

As soon as I realized Mandy Patinkin wasn't in the movie I was like BOO-WEEEP, BOO-WEEEP, DANGER WILL ROBINSON
