What colors did you paint the kids?
"YES! I hate this! It is revolting!"
"More?"
"Please!"
Sounds lovely, but how long does a coat last? I mean, does it really save over the seasonal trashbags my brother sends his out in?What colors did you paint the kids?
Trimmed in a sort of faded denim colour with a pale blue-white - really brightened 'em up. Plus the recycled paint we used was 1/3 the price of a regular can of paint so it was a really good deal as well.
"YES! I hate this! It is revolting!"
"More?"

Is there any need to be rude? All I did was voice my opinion as politely as I could. (Directed at Wiregeek btw)Are you sure Wiregeek wasn't employing the old 'eye for an eye' method of social interaction?

Many people consider the whole concept of "blah blah, I'm done with X, bye" to be inherently rude (regardless of the turn of phrase actually used, but especially if it's your first post) and therefore a valid target for ridicule.
No, really, I like knocking back a slug of Uncle Nastak's Cheap 'n Cheerful Chicago Courage Gin at the end of the day. That expression is simply my way of demonstrating my enjoyment of the hint of Lawrey's Seasoning Salt that's their trademark in this robust compound gin.

HmmmmmmI say chairs and mops at 10 paces at the coffee shop.
Do we need to set up the Steel Cage Ring again?
Wait....how did Marten know it was bourbon and tacos? Dora didn't specify what the dinner and booze was...He does know that Faye is a Bourbon lady. Midnight Hobo, in particular.
One, that particular life lesson seemed to me to be more common sense than necessary to realize through anecdotes... but hey, that's just me. o.o
Two... I noticed that too! Either Jeph is human, or Marten is psychic. I bet it's the human one. Though the latter does open up a rather interesting idea for a new story arc... hrmmm.

Dinner-fuck her booze hole...uh, wow?
I'll probably be chastised for saying so, but it just seems more ridiculous than usual to me. I know Pintsize has a bad mouth, but it seems a little more 'blue' than usual.
It's not so much rudeness, as the elevated sense of self-importance that calls for the responses. The comic has several ten thousand readers.Allow me to clarify; I meant to imply that some people consider the implicit arrogant self-importance of such statements to be inherently rude. Like how B-list celebrities wailing "don't you know who I am?" in A-list restaurants seldom garner anything but negative responses, only with an even greater discrepancy in assumed and actual importance.
Why would Jeff, or anyone so much give a damn about Logicaldisorder's pathetic tantrum? One reader less... so what? There are many that like marigold so it is not even a sure decrease in readership.
Now we can worry about business being so slow that a barista can just take the rest of her shift off. We've already seen Dora worrying about CoD's viability.Yeah, but since then Raven has drastically cut back on her hours, so the wage-bill is probably somewhat reduced. Also at least one time when Dora was worrying about the bills it was because she had put a decimal point in the wrong place and effectively multiplied one of them by ten. She apparently did the same thing to Faye's wage check on that day too...

I wonder how she feels about Marigold's interest in Angus? I kind of got the idea that she might fancy him a bit herself.
I wonder how she feels about Marigold's interest in Angus? I kind of got the idea that she might fancy him a bit herself.
The fact that she's leaving gives a slight clue about how she feels, I'd wager. I'll also wager that she'll be rather displeased to find out Pintsized has repurposed her vibrator for use as part of a three-stage model rocket.
Wait....how did Marten know it was bourbon and tacos? Dora didn't specify what the dinner and booze was...
2) I think Faye got out of there because she knows there's nothing there between Marigold and Angus, and she's just getting out of the blast radius of the Awkward Bomb.
Marigold said she believes she actually has a chance, and therefore Faye probably thinks that Angus is interested in Marigold, instead of in her.2) I think Faye got out of there because she knows there's nothing there between Marigold and Angus, and she's just getting out of the blast radius of the Awkward Bomb.
Either that or she's actually a decent person.
Of course there is that old dictum: "Strong drink giveth the desire, but takes away the ability."
Either that or she's [Faye] actually a decent person.When she's not trying to be the sass-ass of the year, yes. Unfortunately…
Unfortunately, he [Angus] is also the "perfect" guy for Marmar at the same time, being her champion among those that would throw her down and stompeth on her intestines.Not really sure about that, but, any road, the manner in which he defends Marigold indicates, to me, anyway, Angus will recoil in horror: see option #4 in today's quiz, minus the "What do you mean" part. There are girls who can overcome this sort of hurdle, of course, but Marigold does not look, to me, to be one of them.
wow, I never noticed these bubbles by my headWe've tried not to say anything. Besides, if you attempt to see them, they've always popped just before you get them into focus, assuming, of course, you still can focus after all that booze.
It will backfire tremendously on Marigold though, as Angus (even drunk) will turn her down and things will become horribly awkward between them on a steadily increasing run of drama.
Looking forward to it. :evil:
I think Faye will try to get advice on the situation from her two best friends.smashing idea! :-D It's what I would do if I was in her shoes.
You romantic devils, you.It will backfire tremendously on Marigold though, as Angus (even drunk) will turn her down and things will become horribly awkward between them on a steadily increasing run of drama.

Me too! I'm personally hoping for it to be bad to the point that she can't live with Angus anymore, moves out, and is never heard from by any of the characters again.
Wait....how did Marten know it was bourbon and tacos? Dora didn't specify what the dinner and booze was...Unless Jeph changed it because he realised it, Dora did specify. Quote: "Oh she's over at Angus and Marigold's. Said something about tacos and bourbon".
Marigold said she believes she actually has a chance, and therefore Faye probably thinks that Angus is interested in Marigold, instead of in her.
That must hurt, and it also makes her the third wheel on the cart. That's why she's leaving immediately.
That's what I thought. Marigold, blissfully unaware she has no chance with Angus; Angus, blissfully unaware Marigold fancies him; Faye, stuck between a rock and a hard place. Man, I'd hate to have to keep writing this drama, hat's off to Jeph.
sort of a change-up on the whole Cyrano idea. Epic possibilities there.That gives me a Bad Idea, which fortunately has no foundation in the comic.

first off THAT APOSTROPHE HAS TO GO
secondly, they're both drunk, leave them together alone long enough and they'll know what to do.
I think you guys were unnecessarily hard on the dude who hates Marigold. I quite like her, but just saying "the focus rotates!" doesn't cut it. It's quite obvious Jeph is really into Marigold as a character, and has dug her since she was introduced, and yes, as one of his favorites, he's putting her front and center in a lot of strips. Honestly, I don't usually like when authors show which characters they're fond of all that openly either--I'd rather they let the story determine character strip time. That said, QC is not that kind of comic and never has been--it's never had a very strong story, it's not exactly plot-driven (although it has loose arcs), and what plot there IS comes from the characters (ie, overall the characters Jeph is interested in get the main plot, and when Jeph gets tired of a character, the plot obliges to help him retire them).
Me, personally, I'm happy with Marigold because the one character everyone loved that I never much cared for is Hanners. So as long as Jeph is privileging Marigold and not having QC be the Hanners show, that suits me well!
If I had to voice any criticism of QC and Jeph al all, it would be that I think Jeph could stand to learn to diversify his plot motivation a bit. That is, I've noticed that he seems to default on romance as plot-motivator, and characters often only seem to interest Jeph when they have romantic storyline potential. When a character gets involved in a romance, they get striptime, when that's done (except with Marten and Dora, as they're part of the main 3) they go to the background. Penny briefly starred in a lot of strips when she had her budding romance with Wll--once that arc was concluded, she and Wil disappeared. Tai mostly gets strips where we see her romantic hijinks. All the times Steve was prominently featured were romance related (first with Ellen, then with Meena, then with CrutchGirl). Sven dropped out of the comic after the Faye debacle. Etc etc etc. Now that Marigold is stepping up to create the Angus-Faye-Marigold love triangle, it's almost like you can see Jeph going "aha! This will be my next Big Story!" I don't actually MIND this, I'm just thinking that a character can be interesting for lots of reasons, and there's plenty of non-romantic related plot-motivators to be had.
Therefore, much drink may be said to be an equivocator with lechery: it makes him, and it mars him; it sets him on, and it takes him off; it persuades him, and disheartens him; makes him stand to, and not stand to*; in conclusion, equivocates him in a sleep, and, giving him the lie, leaves him.Someone actually finished the quote!
I didn't read this thread so I don't know if anyone's said this yet,
but I totally saw it coming like a month ago.
English grammar lesson of the day. Unless LTK is an Ettin (or other multi-headed being), he has only one head. Thus LTK employs only one metaphorical hat at a time and can therefore doff only one metaphorical hat at a time. Thus the plural noun hats would be wrong. On the other hand, without the apostrophe-s, there would be no verb in the clause (my) hat is off to Jeph, making it (my) hat off to Jeph, which is a sentence fragment. The apostrophe indicates an omission, in this case the i of is, and (my) hat's off to Jeph is thus correct. On the other hand, LTK is guilty of a comma splice, which, of course, means that hanging is too good for him, and so we shan't. We don't coddle comma abusers with gratuitous hangings 'round here.That's what I thought. Marigold, blissfully unaware she has no chance with Angus; Angus, blissfully unaware Marigold fancies him; Faye, stuck between a rock and a hard place. Man, I'd hate to have to keep writing this drama, hat's off to Jeph.
first off THAT APOSTROPHE HAS TO GO
Gotta be honest here, if you take the romantic angle out of QC you would be left with... not much. Snarky oneliners and anthroPC comics, which is not to bash oneliners or anthroPCs, just that you'd really be taking the plot-meat out of the comic :P
And it's not like Jeph doesn't write non-romantic plotlines (mostly anything to do with Hanners, but also like Faye's backstory, Vespa Girl... uh... okay I can't think of anything else...)
Romantic, hopelesslydevoted to youdreaming... same difference, right?
Actually, I thought it was a bit creepy the way she stared at Angus. But maybe that's just me.
Am i the ONLY person whose hoping Angus and Marigold do it!?!
For those who have been complaining about Jeph 'fixating' on romance,
I can just see where she THINKS she has a chance. This is probably the only guy in the history of her entire life who has ever told her she was even remotely pretty. He "noticed her" in college. He liked her enough for the two of them to become roommates.I really like Marigold (yeah, I'm shy with the opposite sex, too) and am rooting for her to finally have some romance. Faye did the right and decent thing by leaving Mari to take her best shot. I don't see Faye as all that interested in Angus, he's always been a joke to her.
So someone tell me who shouted "Fuck" downstairs from Hanners?Faye, realizing what she just did.
She knows what she just did. She was there, she did it, and for the right reasons. She doesn't want Angus.
So I don't see that making sense. Unless I'm wrong about her not wanting Angus. But if she does, why did she just walk away and leave him to her rival?
Oh, just let them do it, already. (Recalls saying the exact same thing about Marten and Faye, about twenty times, about two years ago.) I want these fragile, fictional people to be happy!
"So wait, you left Angus, who's DRUNK, and Marigold, who's ALSO DRUNK, and wants to JUMP HIS BONES, BY THEMSELVES?"
Uh, YEAH, Dora, they live together! I should have stayed and lectured them like you seem to be doing?? Really, WTF???
I think Faye will try to get advice on the situation from her two best friends.
Jeph can draw out the story to tease us, while remaining utterly realistic, if Marigirl passes out before she says anything to Angus.And this would be option #5. Which, of course, is exactly what will happen.
So, was that someone yelling "FUCK!" or the sound of very loud fucking?
I think it's intended to be the former [but who?], but I like to remain hopeful whenever possible.
Why does Marten drinking that soda while being so engrossed in the conversation amuse me so much?I see what you mean. "Dora's right! Faye's love life is in crisis! Mmmm, soda! Sooo delicious!"
Jeph can draw out the story to tease us, while remaining utterly realistic...(Yeah, like Mari talking with Momo, we'd see how badly it went.)
Which, of course, is exactly what will happen.
Why? Because of the Law of Webcomic Humor.
Well, it seems I gave Faye too much credit for personal growth by thinking she had considered Marigold's feelings. Oh well. And it took me a moment to figure out who was yelling "FFFUCK!" (which is the new "AUGH!")... but once I thought about it, it being Faye made the most sense... So drunk Faye is impulsive and dumb (as previously established) but not maudlin. Got it. Funny how what she just did is essentially the opposite of what she did, drunk, with Sven. Yay progress?Poor Marigold.
I can already picture tomorrow's comic in my head. Oh, it won't happen the way I think it will (it never does!), but it would involve Angus waking up, smiling, turning to the lady in bed with him, being shocked to see that it's Marigold instead of Faye...
Honestly Mari is far more stable than Faye.Yeah, as one of your advertisers states, "Geeks make the best lovers." Marigold would be loyal, grateful, generous to Angus, while Faye would give him grief and prickly problems. But guess which one The Law of Webcomic Humor compels him to choose...?
QC is not an adventure comic, or a mystery solving comic, etc. And it's not like Jeph doesn't write non-romantic plotlines (mostly anything to do with Hanners, but also like Faye's backstory, Vespa Girl... uh... okay I can't think of anything else...)
Honestly Mari is far more stable than Faye.Yeah, as one of your advertisers states, "Geeks make the best lovers." Marigold would be loyal, grateful, generous to Angus, while Faye would give him grief and prickly problems.
I guess I feel like I shouldn't need a schematic of the building to know where everyone lives in order to enjoy the comic.I seriously doubt that, I thought it was pretty obvious that it was Faye yelling "FUCK!" A map of the apartment complex was not needed. Being that Dora asked Faye a question and the next step in a dialog would be her answer/reaction. Then again I suppose I am a story teller and understand that aspect of a story.
...
Maybe the point of the strip in question was to ask the reader to try & figure out what the 'Fuck!' is actually about. Maybe Marten stubbed his toe.
If that is Faye yelling 'Fuck!", I still have a lot of questions. Does Faye reciprocate Angus's feelings? [if not before, is this her admitting to do so now?] Is she upset because she left so that her friend Marigold could have some drunken alone-time with a boy she's not all that interested in, but now realizes that he's sure to refuse Marigold's advances and therefore, Faye herself is a party to Marigold's embarrassment and shame at being denied?I agree I have a lot of questions about it too. I quite fancy that she likes Angus, she is attracted to him and lately she seems to light up when he comes to the coffee shop, not untilke when Marty did/does. and I agree with the general consensus here, I have a feeling we will have to wait until next week to find out :-P
What do you mean you're my sister? 30 (38%)I know that would be the weirdest thing ever for me to realize... <_< >_> --_--
Apparently, a lot of you are fearing a Luke/Leia moment - and well you should. But if you're Leia, at least you can have Han afters.
LMAO @that pic, Tuitsuro!
Well, it seems I gave Faye too much credit for personal growth by thinking she had considered Marigold's feelings. Oh well. And it took me a moment to figure out who was yelling "FFFUCK!" (which is the new "AUGH!") since I couldn't remember where the other apartments were in relation to Hanners', but once I thought about it, it being Faye made the most sense. Plus, with jwhouk's recap of Marten and Faye's move-in way back, it pretty much has to be Faye yelling it. So drunk Faye is impulsive and dumb (as previously established) but not maudlin. Got it. Funny how what she just did is essentially the opposite of what she did, drunk, with Sven. Yay progress?
I can already picture tomorrow's comic in my head. Oh, it won't happen the way I think it will (it never does!), but it would involve Angus waking up, smiling, turning to the lady in bed with him, being shocked to see that it's Marigold instead of Faye, and meanwhile in the last panels, a bleary-eyed Hannelore is stacking cards in the morning light . . . until a giant "FFFUCK!" from next door (or above?) knocks them down again.
(Marigold)'s got no job, no friends (granted, until recently), she lives off her parent's money, doesn't really care about her personal apperance, live(d) in a pig sty (which even a pig would have turn it's nose up at * ) and she sits in her room all day playing World of Warcraft.
Funny how what she just did is essentially the opposite of what she did, drunk, with Sven.Faye had been drinking before she tried the Sven Experiment, but she didn't have bubbles around her head and her speech patterns hadn't drifted into drawl like they do when she's drunk.
I did not see this coming, no sir.Crushed hope and humiliation? More like catatonic in shock because of the epic awkwardness of it for an awkward (yet adorable :-P) girl.
I was more expecting Marigold walking in on Faye and Angus's first romantic encounter and basically dying immediately of a combination crushed hope and humiliation.
While I'm not a fan of 4chan, panel 4, while funny, would have had me rolling if it said "FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU" instead.
Marigold has a job. She works for her father as a webmaster. This is not "living off your parents' money" but "employed in the family business", which is far more socially acceptable. My brother works for my dad - he gets his nice shiny paycheck every week, which has income tax, social security, etc. taken out just like mine does except that mine comes from my school district, and Marigold mentioned that she pays taxes. Dad also reserves the right to fire my brother if he screws around, messes up, and generally acts like an idiot.
Jeph really has a love for these wham strips huh? Though I honestly can't say I didn't see it coming, I saw it coming since Marigold was introduced as Angus's roommate.nah she'll knock on the door and confess her love too, then Angus will be caught in a tenchi muyo episode.
Also I'll put money on Faye walking in right in the middle of this.
FRIDAY IS GOING TO BE A CLIFFHANGER I CAN FUCKING SMELL IT I HATE YOU ALL.

That horrid slut! How dare he kiss Marigold!I laughed, but somebody is going to have that reaction. :|
Omigod. So much shit is going to go down. After Sven cheating on Faye, it was all ladedahappyfluffyponynondramaness and now THIS. It's delicious. :)
FRIDAY IS GOING TO BE A CLIFFHANGER I CAN FUCKING SMELL IT I HATE YOU ALL.good call, yelling bird.

I'm calling it right now!
Monday: Faye barges in and breaks up the kiss. Awkwardness (bad or good) directly follows and it can't be resolved because they keep getting interrupted.

Well good for Marigold! Kiss the hell out of him! Kiss him so hard he feels like a lady!Well, maybe not that hard.
EDIT ADD: Also, I notice how Marigold kiss has "popped" Angus' drunk bubbles, nice touch for drawing a sobering-shock.
No. Awkwardness has already comenced, look at Angus' face. He's going to talk Mar-mar down, but it's not gonna be easy - he's no longer as think as you drunk he is.Fixed that. A unique way to quickly sober up, apparently effective, but I somehow doubt it'll catch on. For one thing, I don't think Marigold would be willing to go from house to house kissing drunks. Could be wrong, though.

I'm leaning towards Faye barging in, seeing Maribear kissing him (this time or again in the "talking down" process, or she could even be standing in the doorway now and we just don't see it) and Faye freaks out and runs. Angus is then torn between following and dealing with Maribear. Oh the drama, it's delicious! ::nom nom nom nom::
Sven needs a strong-willed woman to keep him in check.That would be Lydia. Anyway, Sven's got to learn and want to keep himself in check. Otherwise, all you're talking about is getting him a keeper. Anybody who wants to do that should buy a dog. Or, if you enjoy both challenges and losing, a cat. In a relationship, being responsible for your SO's behavior gets old, fast.
Go figure - most people whio have voted already seem to think that the best web comic kiss happened in this very comic. Who'd have thunk it?haha the Marten Dora kiss was very romantic and was just as equally if not more so awesome, but I figure I give OOTS some props as I was re-reading that very story arc last night.
I'd say that no matter what happens, there's a 90% chance Angus gets hit/kicked in the groin by the end of the evening.bangin' is a form of hitting
but not kicking.
*pictures semi-undressed Angus holding semi-undressed Marigold's hair as she vomits into the toilet, partially missing the bowl, her glasses falling in*
Titled "After the Pron"Damn you, internet!
:?
Ok, I'm not up on my Arthurian legends, but can someone explain the title of the last strip to me?
I think it's a bit simpler than that; Angus has already been referenced as the White Knight (http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1617), and Marigold's basically putting his knightly chivalry to the test. Will he decline the invitation and send her away, or will he face the challenge and unsheath his sword for battle?

If that's the track Jeph's on, will we see Angus and Faye cuttin' heads?
Here's to Marigold fucking Angus, freaking out when she wakes up, crying rape, and sending ol Angus McArgumentpants to PMITA prison.
*drinks*
Anyone else notice that "Awkward-bomb" abbreviates to "A-bomb"?
So once again, a QC man is kissed by a woman who actually wants him while he is pining after Faye.
Like Marten before him, Angus must choose between success and Faye allure.
some kind of Awkward She-Hulk."You won't like me when I'm awkward"?
You know what needs to be said. Good for Marigold. Instead of pining away and doing nothing, going emo over unrequited love she made a move. The whole waiting around for the other person to initiate things is a pretty common geek failing. So huzzah for her.
That's federal PMITA prison to you!
:?
Ok, I'm not up on my Arthurian legends, but can someone explain the title of the last strip to me?
well if angus does reject marigold for faye we will then have a new angsty character which we havnt had since natasha broke up with amir.And then the allosaurus got them both.
The Arthurian legend is that of Tristan and Isolde. Tristan was sent to bring Isolde to King Mark's court so the king could marry her. However, on the way, Tristan and Isolde accidentally drank a love potion together that had been meant to Mark and Isolde to drink together to seal their upcoming marriage in love. As a result, Tristan and Isolde fell madly in love instead and everything became seriously screwed up.I dunno, I'm liking SGatGK more and more for this, specifically because of this episode: Gawain, while completing his quest to meet the Green Knight, spends time at the Castle of Bertilak de Hautdesert, where he is tempted by the lord's wife before going on meet the Green Knight (who has been, of course, disguised as old Bert) to get his head cut off, which Gawain does—and gets away with only a nick for having lied to his host. I see that as much more a parallel then than the Tristan legend—nobody's escorting anyone anywhere, for one, and Angus is definitely running the gauntlet. Besides, we can see his 'love potion' is not in effect any longer—ye bubbles art e'en pop'd.
Worde to thine dam.You know what needs to be said. Good for Marigold. Instead of pining away and doing nothing, going emo over unrequited love she made a move. The whole waiting around for the other person to initiate things is a pretty common geek failing. So huzzah for her.
I'd agree with this more if she didn't have to get falling-down drunk to do it...
I checked them both out. Marten has a surprised look (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=564), but I don't see the cringing (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1630) that Angus seems to be engaged in. He's drawn back, while Marten hasn't. Nor are Marten's eyes pinpointed like Angus's are. In other words, Angus and Marigold may be about to break the couch frame in frenzied humping, but at the moment, Angus looks ready to bolt. Marten simply looks astonished.It does look like how Faye kissed Sven (http://questionablecontent.net./view.php?comic=1079), though...
I don't know, though. Jeph built up to Dora/Marten for strips and strips and strips - Dora was interested in Marten from the moment they met.Actually, it took two panels before she said, "Your boyfriend is a cutie" to Faye. And three more strips before Dora mentioned the "dashing young man" to Mieville... ;)

I really can't wait to see where this is going.If she ever asks, tell her you're crawling the net for more Keely whosname (insert fave P3 girl, model, or pronstar) pics. She'll buy it—may haul you in to see a marriage counselor or something, but anything beats seeing that little 'ha ha' smirk on her face, right?
And I used to laugh at my wife for getting hooked on a soap.
Dammit...
a shitton of booze.The new term for a 'shit-load,' I take it? Or is it a different amount? Can you tell me where it fits into the traditional units? You know, buttload < assload < crapload < shitload < fuckload < righteous fuckload (aka holy fuckload)
Oh, yes, well. Excuse me. I had not realized that it had taken so very long for her to develop the raging hots for him. ;)To be fair, Faye is grabbing Sven by the shirt.It does look like how Faye kissed Sven (http://questionablecontent.net./view.php?comic=1079), though...
Disagreedisagree! Yes, the pinprick-sized irises are much the same, but again: look at the body language. As with Dora and Marten, Sven is leaning in towards the kiss, and would likely even without her pulling on his shirt. Yes, you could say that gesture is forcing him to lean towards her... but a grip on the front of a t-shirt isn't that constraining. Sven is not backing away, as Angus is, and that's the important part of Awkward Kiss.
I checked them both out. Marten has a surprised look (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=564), but I don't see the cringing (http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1630) that Angus seems to be engaged in. He's drawn back, while Marten hasn't. Nor are Marten's eyes pinpointed like Angus's are. In other words, Angus and Marigold may be about to break the couch frame in frenzied humping, but at the moment, Angus looks ready to bolt. Marten simply looks astonished.
I read it as Dora blowing up.So someone tell me who shouted "Fuck" downstairs from Hanners?Faye, realizing what she just did.
Until reading this thread, I had no idea that the Wagner opera (Tristan und Isolde) was based upon Arthurian legend, despite the fact that at least 50% of my essays seem to involve Wagner and or Tristan in one way or another. I'm such a music student.

The new term for a 'shit-load,' I take it? Or is it a different amount? Can you tell me where it fits into the traditional units? You know, buttload < assload < crapload < shitload < fuckload < righteous fuckload (aka holy fuckload)
Two words:
Wonderful Tonight.
Ten, twenty years ago, not so much.
Where do you shop?
I haven't seen an album on cassette in a store in a good long while.
