Voodoo Funk vs Austrian Reissue? Label
Echoes of Ye Olde Internette bubbling up! I love it. A couple of thoroughly unpleasant characters, with no true winner, but the cards are stacked against this Max guy: the first thing I read from him is level four messageboard mega-ramble, already reeking of thou dost protest 2 much bro. Could probably get by with a "LOL whatever dude yer salty I scooped ya" but when your wordcount approaches 2500 you may have lost already. If he were American there's no doubt he'd've included THE CONSTITUTION, but went with the rarely successful Born Again Christian Defense--a sympathy smartbomb implying massive instability at best.
He's up against Rommel, too. Frank is a beast of this shit. He's seen it all, he knows it all, and he's gonna calmly bury this fool (and his uncomfortably large family) in the desert. As KETB points out above, it looks like Frank's content to let this dude hang himself. No need to point out this cringy cut rate edge lord amateur never sipped a post-orgiac spider venom Mai-Tai in a tropical sunset hammock made from villagers' dreadlocks even once in his community college art school life: he's got a pic of the dude in a Nazi uniform. Bong bong!
And yes, this shit needs to unfold on The Strut.
LOL at the existence of German Vice and the "uncoolste Musik des Planeten" and Reynaldo's Map and a few more things...this has me rethinking my stance on getting rid of daylight savings time, it's been a great use of my fall back bonus hour. Excellent stuff!

Why So Quiet Around Here?
Also other stuff. I had an ingrown nostril hair come out the front of my nose a decade ago. Some strutteur, I think it was one of the britmans dem, recounted a nearly identical experience on here. It used to show up in my weekly google searches.kala said:
it's funny how the rarer-ist private issue soul/funk lp online research more often than not leads right back to hear-= here-ear!

Pokemon Go
I was hip to Ingress, having read a few articles about the creepy "let's see how much they'll share for free" Google project that turned into a capture the flag game. There were hot spots in my neighborhood where I'd see lonely weirdos zapping aliens at all hours of the day. That one fizzled out last year, only to seemingly return with a vengeance one weekend last month, same time as I heard about Pokemon Go. I looked into it and thought, "hmm, sounds like they just re-skinned Ingress for Pokemon." I was right.
Still looking for someone to be impressed by this detective work.
ONE: it has obviously been the first thing that's pushed a lot of people to feel old. This calms me. Welcome to the club.
1b: And tweeting that you think Pokemon Go is a bunch of dummies walking around staring at their phones wasting their lives?--the height of arrogant disconnectedness. That's all anybody's been doing for the past five years! Sent from my iPad.
2ndly: gameplay seems weak. If you could put your pokemons up, for keepsies, against other players, it'd make more sense to me. But from what I understand there are no stakes, no PvP battles, no winners no losers. WTF kind of game is that?
III: it's a scavenger hunt. In which people have written their own programs to help them locate all the treasures. Huh? And they're mad the developers are shutting that down? Sounds like you want geocaching or something else. I guess that's what we do. Gotta catch em all. Seems really American, like how we are proud of visiting every country in Europe in 15 days or whatever. I dunno, I'm all for the unforeseen economies that arise within games--from the gamesmanship of working the refs to role playing within MMPORGGPORGGs, but a treasure map in a scavenger hunt seems so counter to the spirit of the game...
Also: people seem to be enjoying it. The stories of people dying by falling off cliffs and getting lured to mug-spots are great. Go for it.
