Won't Decide, But He Won't Debate

Haha. The title of this post is a lyric from The Strokes song "When It Started". Anyways, if you know me, you would find this unbearably hilarious because I refer to people who are like this as "pushovers" because I'm such a debate addict. Yeah, I guess I like arguing (or to those who are more sensitive and like asserting their non existent superiority "intellectually discussing a matter") and I guess that means I have quite a pugnacious personality. I'm often described as "too serious" or "too intense". Maybe that contributes to my love of New Wave (which sort of calms me down), Indie (which is pretty mellow) and Punk (you know, to keep me from slapping someone - the angst is already there for me). People tell me to calm down quite alot...they just don't do it in the right way. Just hand me my iPod, geez, it's not that hard. I think I'm addicted to that thing.

Lately I've been kind of getting into the relatively older stuff....you know, like late 90's and early 2000s. Weird, because at that time I was into Britney Spears (yes you read right, I would sing along at the top of my lungs to songs like "Hit Me Baby One More Time".Gosh, I'm so embarrased now. At least my taste in music has improved significantly.) My favorite song this week has to be either "Barely Legal" or "When It Started" (both from Is This It? by The Strokes, well, actually, "Barely Legal" is also on The Modern Age EP). I think I've listened to them at least 10,000 times. I literally walk around all day with my earbuds in my ears.

Just a note - did you notice the super cool Pandora thing on the side bar? I kind of like it - you can see exactly what we're listening to on Pandora. LOL. Borderline stalker-ish. It's a-okay though - I thought it might be sort of interesting, you know, we live by what we preach.
