Popularity rank 1 #36. Writing a classified ad

August 23, 2005

DAN: $25 gets us a ten-word classified ad. So let's see... "Bassist Wanted... for... rock band..."

JOHN: More like "Bassist wanted for harmony-heavt, post-garage, low-to-mid-fi, pre-post-punk, alt-countrified, funk-based, psychadeliphonic, teenage-victory-rock...."

JOHN: "...band."
DAN: OK, so that's... well, we have to a few words, John.

JOHN: Then I dunno, cut "band" or that beginning part. The rest is pretty essential.
DAN: Oh wait... shoot, it says, "Limit: five hyphenated genres."
