The Problem

With Reservoir Dogs is the ear scene.

With friends, I've seen the first half of that movie a dozen times; but the ear scene always drives everyone out of the room, and then we forget about the movie. And I don't think I've seen the ending more than once. And even then, I wasn't really paying attention.

Just watched it on my own - washed out some dishes during ear scene.

All the rest?
Fantastic.
Twenty years late, I know.

Poll Smokers

A medical marijuana shop's offer of free pot in exchange for registering to vote appears to have gone up in smoke.

Your Healthy Choice Clinic of Lansing, Mich., had been offering a half gram on its website ahead of a vote for city council seats and after the council approved capping the number of medical marijuana dispensaries within city limits and setting a $1,000 application fee.

"We let them know how we feel, we don't tell them who to vote for," she added. "We definitely want to support the ones (city council members) who are supporting us."

That might have been one toke over the line, though:

On Wednesday, the state's attorney general, at the prodding of a state senator, said he was looking into whether the clinic crossed a legal line.

Rhyme Crimes

Last week's lousy lyrics post was fun, so I thought I'd do something similar this week: what is the worst rhyme you've ever heard in a song ?

For some reason, all my examples came from the same guy:

  • With words they try to jail ya /... / but it's the rhetoric of fail-yah
  • You consider me the young apprentice / caught between the Scylla and Charibdes
  • He starts to shake and cough / just like the old man in that book by Nabakov

Oh Sting. Sigh. You can do better.

Got any that aren't from Mr Sumner ?
