August 14, 2006

BRETT: If civilization won't let me escape James Blunt, Greg, I'll have to leave it behind. I'm gonna head out West. Get off the grid. Walk the Earth.
GREG: Will you have your phone? Can I email you?
BRETT: Greg, where I'm going... there'll be no "phones", no "email". I'm leaving behind the modern world.
GREG: So can I have your--

Popularity rank 2 #137. No James Blunt on the iPod

August 4, 2006

GREG: Why'd you throw my iPod across the room?
BRETT: That James Blunt song was starting to play. I could hear it through your earbuds.
GREG: "You're Beautiful"? It's harmless hooky pop.
BRETT: Greg, for the past year, our entire culture has tried to make me listen to that song.
BRETT: But I've resisted! I am Blunt-free! And I won't have your iPod end my self-imposed Blunt-ginity!
GREG: Well, fine... but you could've hurt "Li'l Stevie".
BRETT: I wish you wouldn't call it that.

Popularity rank 5 #186. Letting your taste be defined

December 19, 2008

BRETT: Just realize that between Free Credit Report.com and iPod ads, you now let your music taste be defined completely by random marketing executives.
GREG: Hey!
GREG: It's also defined by Grey's Anatomy soundtracks!
BRETT: You do not grasp the crux of my point.
