"You know 'six seven'??"
"Yeah, it's from a song."
"What's the song about?"
"Uh...it's about crimes. It's not for kids."
"What sorts of crimes?"
"...Stealing cars. That sort of thing."
[anxious pause, hoping for zero follow-ups]
"Oh, OK."
[exhales]

I love that when he finally put the South Park ep into a lyric it was clumsy enough that you were *still* not sure if he got the joke

What you’re describing is the “put six funny people in a room” part

Dave Moore @otherdavemoore.com · 7h

It’s like a British-style panel show where the points are kind of arbitrary but the game would be less fun without them

I didn't tell you my kid sat at the piano today and started going rhythmically down the white notes and I laughed and said "there's a Taylor Swift song that does that!"

Ha, I thought "Centipede" was a Golden Beat and was only partially correct -- I listed it as a Golden Beat in November 2023, the first time it was polled!

I predicted that her album would be called "Vampires and Shit" before she revealed it was called "Red"
