Dear Gen Xer,
I asked you last week which of the following audio abortions would make you squeal like Ned Beatty.
a) Tubthumping
b) Macarena
c) Don’t Worry Be Happy
d) My Heart Will Go On
It was a close one, but in the end Macarena prevailed with 32% of the vote. May Los Del Rio choke on day-old tapas.
And now, the moment you’ve all been waiting for – The Gen X Jukebox Question of the Week!
Hey, numb-nuts!
There’s a new sheriff in town. And guess what? I don’t like Gen Xers. With your cynicism and your smartass ways. Why don’t you shut up and play Atari, nerd.
As your new sheriff, I’m enforcing a new law. So listen up!
You’re only allowed to listen to one decade of music for the rest of your life.
Why is that? Because I said so, pecker breath.
One decade only – no exceptions. And don’t even think about pulling a fast one. You mess with the bull, you get the horns!
So what’s it going to be, scum bag?
It would have to be the 70s. Such a range. Black Sabbath, Nick Drake, Manassas, Miles Davis On The Corner, Kraftwerk, Marvin Gaye, Disco, Carpenters, Steely Dan, Ramones, Sex Pistols, Van Halen, Bob Marley, Joy Division, Sylvester, Prince, and the Sugar Hill Gang. I am leaving out somebody else's favorite band, or including something others can't stand. Oh well, it's off the top of my head.
Will you delete memories of the other decades or can I keep them in my memory safe from your evil grip?
