So good.
This is one of my favourite things on the internet.
Top 500
We’re going through Rolling Stone magazine’s 500 Greatest Albums of All Times list in the studio, and I’ve noticed a discrepancy. No one that I know in the world actually ranks Sgt Peppers as the best Beatles album, let alone the best album of all time. Hell, its not even in the top 5 Beatles records. Revolver is clearly the best.
And, while we’re setting the record...
Pitbulls
We had a couple of beautiful pitbulls come out to visit us on our Tokyo Police Club photo today. They were some of the best behaved dogs I’ve ever come across, and it reminded all of us about how ridiculous the Ontario law banning them is. It’s the owner, not the dog, people! Isn’t that obvious?

Parts of my body that hurt right now:

I love playing hockey.

I just got extremely excited that I came up with a hilarious name for a rap song: Hip Hop Hooray. Moments later, I discovered that Naughty By Nature released that song in 1993. Thanks for ruining my excitement, Google.
“I can remember when we were in high school, our dreams were like fugitive...”

Comments enabled (?)
Well, a bunch of you suggested I use Disqus for comments. I actually forgot that I used to use it. It didn’t work so well, but lets see how she does now. Comment away! If you want. You don’t have to.
T-t-t-tumblr!
Is it just me, or is Tumblr clearly the best of all the ‘social media’ things? It combines all the immediacy of Twitter with all the flexibility of a blog. If you could have comments on Tumblr, or possibly Twitter style @ replies, it would be the perfect internet doohickey.
I know I can end this with a question mark and people can sort of reply, but I can’t reply to my own...
For the past few days, I’ve had a song stuck...
“when the pawn hits the conflicts he thinks like a king
what he knows throws the...”

2009: A Retrospective in Song Titles
These are the songs I wrote in 2009, in (roughly) the order in which they were written:
No Hard Feelings, Copenhagen, One Man Show, Soviet Race, Shirts vs Skins, Heavens Just for Moviemakers, Bowery Boys, Leftovers, The Best Part of the Egg, Ryerson Rink, Keys to the Kingdom, Evening Train From Kingston Station, Canadian Thanksgiving, Chucklefucks, Your Heart Is My Heart, Body Language, In...
How did my ‘tumblarity’ just plummet 21 points in the last couple of hours?
How does that still make me the 12th most popular Tumblr in Canada?
Is Tumblr broken?
Is it wrong that I’m so preoccupied with this?
