Like the Elvis they found on the toilet maybe?

Shouldn’t this be moved to the ‘Things that annoy’ thread? [emoji848]

Not annoying. Trump staring at the eclipse like a dumbass or vanity shitposting about Elvis should amuse all of us & bring this country together.

True that it is crazy and humorous, but unfortunately there are far too many who do not and will never see him for what he is, which keeps him around. That is annoying.

They *do* know what he is.

They just don't care.

Which is even more annoying.

Shit. Wrong thread.

All the hubbub about a singer dating a football player. It's comical how twisted people are about this.

You should check out the Beckham & Victoria (Spice Girl) documentary if you want to see real twisted.

70s--80s metal blasting on the speakers at the little kids area at Olympic Valley--where they have the magic carpets, barely skiable chairlift, and lunch room for the kiddies. Isn't there some Sesame Street or something they could play?

[mcski]

Enter Sandman seems appropriate

I am a bad person. I laughed at that way harder than anyone should, especially because I was imagining Benny caught in that and then bitching about it here over how it ruined a whole bunch of pocket meats which lowered his ROI on the hotel room to not worth it.

The 40-50 year old who’s working the kiddie area at the ski resort is probably not exactly living his dream. Why do you wanna take away his music too??

Yeah, but free Gore-Tex testing!

Now this got an audible laugh from me imagining that poor beat down lifite.

My kid is 2yrs old. When he is in the kitchen watching me cook/clean/whatever i always play "good" music, i refuse to play kiddie music like my wife does. Junior needs to get an appreciation for all sorts of quality tunes and funny enough, he digs anything with a good beat. I HATE the mentality that little kids will be happier listening to the crappy toddler tunes or disney songs... its just like food- if all you feed them are chicken nuggets and french fries thats all they will ever eat and be picky eaters. But if you give them a diverse musical diet they will learn to enjoy Maiden, Marley, Springsteen, Bone Thugs, Lou Reed, Avicci, etc.

[BmillsSkier]

Bone Thugs n Harmony is for the children!



(in all seriousness, I'm of the same mindset and have been ever since my kiddo showed an interest in music)

This live cam of a bald eagle’s nest in Big Bear is the best work from home background I’ve found in awhile. Every few hours the male and female switch turns sitting on their three eggs, and they’ll bring back fish for each other, squawk at each other and generally bicker like a married couple.

A variety is good. I'd just as soon not have to explain certain lyrics to my three-year-old, though, so I appreciate it when the lifties pick family-safe content.

Is it always that windy up there? Poor guys getting tossed around a bit.

No way, I found him in Paris. Unfortunately his bid to build a world record Eiffel tower replica was denied

Man who spent 8 years building Eiffel Tower with 700K matchsticks may be denied world record for using wrong matches

That tree moves a lot! But I assume that’s sort of normal. They don’t seem bothered by it

Kind of a long story, but cool in my mind--
My wife and I usually play a solo piano channel during dinner. All while she was pregnant we were listening to Mozart Piano. (that was the name of the channel on iTunes radio back then.) Then after my daughter was born, we continued with our Mozart Piano tradition at dinner. Then when she was around 2 or 3 or something I changed the channel to a Classical Piano channel. My daughter chimes in-- Dad, this isn't Mozart. Can you put Mozart on? I didn't know if it was Bach, Chopin or whoever, but my daughter was quick to pick up on it.

Now she's the one who's chosen each year to play the piano at the school plays and concerts. Nothing better than coming home from work, opening the front door and hearing her playing as I walk in.
