Notes about Nothing - 26/08/2008

Aug 26, 2008 12:32

Yeah, I decided to take a page out of the livejournal owned by purely_narcotic and let my meandering thoughts be compressed such that different ones could fit into the same post. The only difference is that, my posts, pretty much like all episodes in all seasons of Seinfeld are about nothing.

could think just one more video of theirs that came to mind that everyone has seen and heard of.
...and they don't even get the royalty for the song, do they?
(Where's the triva, oh! Trivia Buff?)

purely_narcotic August 26 2008, 15:57:57 UTC

Is it called royalty or 'financial rewards' in the music world?

harithekid August 27 2008, 08:38:02 UTC

oh yes, you're referring to 'The Last Time', I somehow didn't mention it cause it slipped my mind. Also, to be perfectly honest, I am not sure which of the two are used, because I think I've heard people use both interchangably.

Just noticed on the wiki page that Richard Ashcroft said "This was the best song Jagger and Richards had written in twenty years." Tongue-in-cheek are there.

Yeah which made its way into Bittersweet Symphony. Apparently Ashcroft also dedicated the song to Mick Jagger and Keith Richards at a gig at the Sage Gateshead in Gateshead. After an audience member booed, Ashcroft exclaimed, "Don't boo, man. As long as I can play this song I'm happy to pay a few of those guys' bills."

What do they say about the British sense of humour? :D

Well, considering most Brit comedies are more subtle and involved compared to their not so distinguished American Cousins (Seinfeld being so arbit that it is a noteworthy exception, as is HIMYM for various other reasons), I'd say they'd have a lot of nice stuff to say about Brit humour. Please enlighten me if I am wrong.

Funny you spell 'humour' with an extra 'U' in it, though.

Considering how much moolah Mr.Jagger and Mr.Richards have been making, their chasing down The Verve reeks of cheapness par excellence.

Har Har...how Fun-i is that?!
What do you mean with an extra 'u'? Five months in Seattle and Americanized, are we now?

harithekid August 28 2008, 05:27:37 UTC

oh no no, I was not referring to my humour with a U. I was referring to your spelling considering you said in a previous comment that you've been to India only on occasion.

Based on that premise, I assumed YOUR spelling to be Americanized. I spell and even talk and pronounce the way I've been taught in school, thank you very much.

purely_narcotic August 28 2008, 05:40:25 UTC

Well I did grow up in a city where we used British spellings and no, this was not in the US of A :)

harithekid August 28 2008, 05:45:08 UTC

One of the many awesome contributions that the US of A has had to the English language is 'meh'. Another one is 'dibs'.

purely_narcotic August 28 2008, 05:50:26 UTC

If you haven't read it already, Meh! :)

harithekid August 28 2008, 05:57:00 UTC

Good stuff! I hadn't read it already, but thank you very much!

This is as bad if not worse than how one my close friends has been merciless about pulling my leg regarding my use of 'blocks' on that one occasion when I had just given someone directions (believe it or not) and the usage of 'blocks' was still fresh in my mind.
