Perhaps, when you are home, we could convince Bex to participate... especially if we make it a Bollywood theme....

I told you, my love, I'm singing Main hoon naa for you...ooooh! do you own a sweater-vest? We could costume this up right...

Or a very big American flag and a sudden ability to break-dance?

All the signs are there that this is a task that needs approving:

Wow. Burn Unit, that was one of the best things I have ever seen.

I haven't been that impressed since I saw this.

Wow. Lincoln, that was one of the best things I have ever seen.

I haven't been that impressed since. . . well, you get the idea.

Seriously, that's really impressive. But somehow it feels wrong to see so many genuinely impressive youtube links in one place. We need to restore order with some juvenile crap.

Wow, Lincoln.


Touché.

I don´t think Ben has anything against OLD

Ben was born in 1982 and Separate Lives was released in 1985. We Are The World was recorded on ´86, when me and BU and Lincoln were about 10 (right, guys?). So proportionally Ben´s taste in music... oh, I dunno.
I guess is like Queen songs for we the OLD.

... wait, what?

I've suddenly aged 9 years. Shit, where did that go!?

I suddenly lost my ability to substract. 1988?!! I guess is denial at work, geez, you guys get younger by the minute. Sorry, sir. Gorgeous rendition, btw.
I guess is like Elvis songs for us, then :)

I was kicked out of Star Wars for roller skating down the aisles in 1977. And Ben has never seen any of those films in a theater. I remember the start of the UPN network to launch Star Trek: The Next Generation, and Ben probably never saw one episode air live. There is some perspective right there. Yet I don't feel old at all.

Ben wasn't even alive to see the Berlin Wall get taken down.

How's THAT for perspective?

My ability to add is also off. I guess someone else could do the math, our local engineers, maybe.

It's alright. My age fluctuates.

I confess I still haven't gotten over people actually having been born in the nineties.

Which is funny, because many such people aren't actually all that much younger than me.

Bex, I think you should end all statements you make in that fashion. Online and in the real world.

Now, if you'll excuse me...

That is HORRIFYING.

Today I forgot how old I was, and was rather shocked when I remembered. Where did the last year go??

posted by Burn Unit on July 31st, 2008 2:22 PM

Now see here, Ms. Bexie,

I was talking about the subtitles, not the movie itself, much less the genre as a whole. But if you'd prefer to take this outside, that can be arranged.

Sorry Unit,
I have trouble keeping in check my sass mouth and my urge to take the slightest opportunity to pick a duel...

Y'know what would assuage my tender sensibilities?

Seeing you do some Bollywood karaoke.

P.S. I love you, CM. ::Spills whiskey down shirt and trips over spurs::

Fourth decade? Pff. Call me when you break a century.

Yeah, Spidere, but you aren't fifty feet tall like C.M. Big people don't live so long. Show some sensitivity, man.

You know, Ms. Bexie, assuaging the tender is one of my particular specialties, but I ain't so sure this particular form of assuagement would be sensible. Gonna have to think on it some.

posted by Spidere on August 1st, 2008 12:39 AM

That's absolutely true. Thank you, BU. I just wasn't thinking.

CM, I sincerely apologize for making fun of your youth. I hope you can forgive my callous comments.
