I thought a thread like this existed, but I couldn't find it.  The following definitely isn't important enough for its own thread, but I had no idea where else to post it.

I was eating lunch at a local place, and they have music playing (not loud as to be obtrusive, and I mostly just tune it out).  Today, however, there was some insipid, generic pop song playing - a duet with a guy and a girl.  Didn't really notice it until they got to the lyrical hook:  "Let's Marvin Gaye and get it on."  I couldn't tune it out until it ended, and that line got repeated a couple dozen times.

I'm thinking, "what the fuck?!"  Aside from using "Marvin Gaye" as a verb, did someone think this is a clever line?  It felt like some young teenager heard "Let's Get It On" and told his friend about it and thought the line was super clever.

So...like I said...definitely not worthy of its own thread, so respond if you wish or use this thread for other similar thoughts.

Apparently.  I take it you didn't?



Not important enough for its own thread:  I have listened to a ton of Def Leppard and Trivium today.  Both bands like to use the word "oblivion" more than the average person.

GD chat thread?  There’s never anything important in there.

Wasn't that the Ed Sheeran Hatewagon thread at some point?

Speaking of Ed Sheeran, I stumbled upon an article on Loudwire where they mentioned a Tiktok video of Ed Sheeran eating chips with him having a caption that says, "When you are supposed to be making promos for your song, but you just really want a snack and you decide that eating a snack can be promo for a song because everyone loves snacks."  I like Ed Sheeran enough, so that gets a laugh and I still need to listen to his new album.

It sucks when somebody you knew well dies but nobody disabled their Facebook account.

You get birthday reminders and they're gone.

Just realized this is in the music forum not the general topic forum. My bad.
