... "caterwauling with aplomb"
... "please wear your hardhat in my lab" (or in my lap, you know, danger)
... "it's not fun--or is it?"
... "like ueyama yasushiro" (don't know where that came from)
... "show me 'round these things"
... "the FDIC would worry for me"
... "castle waxmud stands in echinshire plains" / "prince saile's plan to avenge his parents remains"

Sorry, sometimes I mumble lyrics because they suck.

This last one is a bunch of stuff from an RPG game I wanted to write in high school called Anathema. I'm not really sure how "echinshire" was supposed to be spelled, but many of the names of the characters and places came from reversing words or my friends' names or stuff like that. Man, nerd city.

BTW, I totally don't mind doing lyric clarifications (it's rather flattering, actually) but if you want a comprehensive source, lots of the lyrics are available on the AAD pages (click on the "lyrics and chords" link). They don't always match with the song because I often "improvise" during the performance, but it's a good first place to look.

Speaking of mishearing what Tom says about robots, I've got some more AAD lyrics to confirm. The question marks indicate the parts I'm not sure about, if you wouldn't mind correcting them. Thank you!

----------
Molten Mother

and that's why she's a molten mom
caterwauling with a plum (PLOM?)
why she's a molten mom
----------
The Mail's Not Poison

I put a bomb inside her purse
and I'm hoping for the worst
please wear your hardhat in my lamp (?)
and watch out what you grab
----------
East Key to Visit

east key to visit
and after that we'll do the west
it's not for a ??
let's just move on to the rest
----------
Jessica

you're no superhero
like uyama yasushiro (?)
----------
Praise for Chuck

henrietta henrietta
how do you spell vendetta?
jobiround (?) these things
I do not know what winter brings
----------
My Bank

then I wouldn't worry
the FDIC would refund (?) me
----------
Castle Waxmud

castle waxmud stands in echinchaya (?) plays
prince salies' (?) plan to avenge his parents' remains

Yeah, several of the developer keys work while you're playing, too. That's intentional.

It is not normal to sex a robot. The bible says so.

No, I was the question asker.

Oh uh nevermind, I filter out words in typeface larger than 12pt.
 
4173. Max (dssstudentsxp.deans.wesleyan.edu) – 08 Mar 2006 13:05:39 Ah, to make a difference... ]
Well what's the answer then, if you're so smart?

Thanks for the mention.

Your next best bet is a mercury delay line attached with some twine or somethin. Remember: twine is highly toxic in liquid form.

Keep on going!

And a big hug (-:

Whoa...

That might work if this computer had USB and if I believed USB worked on linux 2.2. ;)
 
4166. jcreed (cmu-177829.wv.cc.cmu.edu) – 07 Mar 2006 15:16:28 Furnace Trail Photos ]
Couldn't you just buy an external USB hard drive? That would be kind of like not messing with the computer itself.

"Pretty much continuously", huh? :)
 
4163. Max (mheath.stu.wesleyan.edu) – 07 Mar 2006 00:53:46 Furnace Trail Photos ]
Yeah, nice set.

You mean like the dentist sends you e-mails to encourage you to floss and stuff?

I've never heard a Fiery Furnaces record, but yeah, I saw them live once and it was just, ugh, I just could not deal, I was just trying to disassociate or something, not be there, just praying for the stage to blow up right away or something, they were so incredibly gratingly awful...
 
4160. Cortney (pool-71-240-7-108.pitt.east.verizon.net) – 06 Mar 2006 00:33:18 Next: e-dentistry? ]
Is it more fun than the real dentist?

Thanks for linking to my picture ... I'm sorry your battery had died at this point.

I guess it should surprise no one that e-dentistry totally does exist already.
 
4158. Max (mheath.stu.wesleyan.edu) – 04 Mar 2006 21:45:51 Awesome logo ]
Whoa, I'm gonna look at everything like this from now on. Actually probably not.
 
4157. Max (mheath.stu.wesleyan.edu) – 04 Mar 2006 20:50:22 February snows bring march thundersnows ]
Well whatever leads to the most expedient and high quality production of N*SANO, then.

I guess that's true... nsano is the kind of thing I can probably crank out without using up the whole day. But part of the idea of an album is to shed some of that music creation anxiety.
 
4155. Max (mheath.stu.wesleyan.edu) – 04 Mar 2006 20:18:28 February snows bring march thundersnows ]
Man no wonder you've been outscrobbling me so hardcore lately. Yeah make an album, but I want more computer stuff. Actually wait, if you make an album before making NSANO, well, that would be pretty unethical, you know...
