The Magical Mystery Tour
From a couple of days ago:
Adam has pretty much every Beatles song ever on his Zune. Today, he connected it to his XBox 360 so that I could listen to beautiful music while I worked on lab reports and he killed zombies in Left 4 Dead.
Now, I have what probably amounts to an unhealthy amount of affection for the entire Magical Mystery Tour album, and not just because the vinyl comes with a cartoon explaining the "plot" of the related movie. (For reference, the movie, which has been available in part on YouTube, at least at some point in the past, is not nearly as good as either the album or the cartoon.) So, I put on the album and curled up on the couch to listen to it. The following dialogue ensued:
ADAM: You know, you can play Fallout 3 while listening to music on the 360.
He gave me a complicated list of instructions that I did not follow and will not transcribe.
ME: Adam, you do realize that Fallout 3 is pretty much the exact opposite of this album.
ADAM: ... True. I just wanted you to know that you didn't have to sit there watching the trippy visualizations.
ME: Yes, but Adam, you see, the trippy visualizations are not the opposite of this album.
