_Kyle_ Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Here the lyrics to Apple Shampoo I thought Mark was singing....straight from my 8th grade notebook I found and later noted in my digital files: And she said, "It could never surviveWishes full of liesOne out of one, out too rugged --- I'll pretend that I'm fineI'm bide on time. But I know I'll never be that cool --- And now I realize I should have kissed you in May But I drove home all alone As if I had a choice, anyway --- And if you're feeling scaredthe man with a tiny shed. You know it meant everything (everything) You know that it meant everything to me I would be bored in class and try to re-write all the lyrics from memory to various songs. I still hear the wrong lyrics from time to time in my head. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thongrider Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 I used to write down how long songs durated and subtract them. It was the only math I knew how to do. I was weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't rhyme at all either. I'm proud of you for using the thesaurus though. only a couple actual matches for important. but many near-rhymes: https://www.rhymezone.com/r/rhyme.cgi?Word=important&org1=syl&org2=l&org3=y&typeofrhyme=nry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ182 Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 A lot of you guys are also basing your opinion on the assumption that Mark himself DIDN'T want to change it, but gave in to some societal PC forces or something. Their humor has always been 100% absurd and self-deprecating, he's not some edgelord who wants to actually make anyone feel like shit. Calling someone re tarded or g a y as a diss is over, it's been over for years, there are plenty of funnier and more creative ways to make fun of someone (or yourself) without dragging groups people who were born a certain way into your diss. It's very easy to change it up, and holding onto words like that as if it's some sort of rebellion is just lazy and boring. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghent Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Still so weird to see people type out "n-word." It's like they're scared to release some inner racist demon they've shackled down deep if they say/type the word they are thinking of.
