To counteract my little nugget of pain and depression and anguish -- I believe you people call it "emo" -- yesterday, I CHALLENGE YOU: Put forth a song in your collection that makes you laugh.

Continuing the geekfest, their 18 particularly ridiculous prog-rock album covers article starts off with a revelation: so THAT'S where TankCat came from! ( Read more... )
