Popularity rank 16 #200. What would you vote for?

January 21, 2009

GREG: But if it WAS how it worked, what would you vote for?
BRETT: It's NOT how it works, and it's a WASTE of time to think about, and you're an IDIOT.

A pause.

BRETT: Fine. If Obama made us text in votes for a new national anthem, I'd pick Mary J. Blige's cover of "One".
GREG: Good one! Mine is "Drops of Jupiter".

GREG: "The best soy latte that you ever had and meeeeeee!" PLAY BALL!
BRETT: You're a gargantuan idiot.

January 14, 2009

GREG: Dude, your stereo's all messed up. It's playing three radio stations at once.

BRETT: Oh... yeah. Yeah, I know.

A pause.

GREG: You thought you were listening to Animal Collective, didn't you?
BRETT: Maybe.

Popularity rank 19 #192. Meeting halfway

January 2, 2009

BRETT: Look, it's a new year, let's resolve to meet each other halfway on this.
GREG: OK. How about...

GREG: YOU... make a fundamental moral shift and stop hating musicians that license their songs to TV shows and commercials.

GREG: And I... will try to stop referring to Iggy Pop as "that Carribean Cruise Line guy."

BRETT: Quite a sacrifice.
GREG: I know. "Iggy" is, like, a TOTALLY weird name.

Popularity rank 20 #191. Artists should have ideals

December 31, 2008

GREG: So bands shouldn't sell songs to TV shows, movies and commercials?
BRETT: No, it taints them.

GREG: But you're also against them charging for mp3s and, like, copyright in general?
BRETT: Yes. Music should be free.

GREG: How do expect these guys to LIVE? Art takes TIME. It takes MONEY.
BRETT: I just want artists to have IDEALS.

GREG: You also seem to want them to have TRUST FUNDS.
