Never had one lesson...

/Bueller

Yeah, I sussed out the meaning eventually, but I think it's a sort of testament to the kind of day I've had that it took some time.

I haven't listened to the new track yet, but I saw it on Twitter earlier and meant to, and now's a perfect time. Off I go.

And now I'm back. I'm really glad I listened to that; it's great. It reminds me of something, but I'm having a really hard time figuring out what.

And as someone who enjoys NIN for the most part but hasn't actually bought an album since "Pretty Hate Machine," I'd say that the track is succeeding with the washed and the unwashed alike. This bodes well.

I was 19 years old. I had a beat-up horseshit-brown Toyota station wagon, a girlfriend who never wore underwear, and Pretty Hate Machine on cassette tape.

It was a good summer.

You're a very attractive young man. All the girls must surely swoon for you.

That girlfriend, by the way? The one from that summer? The one who went commando? I googled her not that long ago. She's married now.

I wonder if she lets her husband do all those things she let me do…

I have that experience every time I hear Wilco or Modest Mouse.

That girl was CRAZY, though. Fig knows.
