What You’re Favorite Album Says About You…

Smokler on March 29, 2004

Taken from the Summer 2003 issue of Jest magazine. My personal favorites…

“Slanted and Enchanted” by Pavement: “Everyone in this room is an asshole except me. And yes, I know my T-shirt is too snug.

“Crossroads” by Eric Clapton: “I have to swing by JCPenney and Suncoast Video so why don’t we just meet up in the food court?”

“8 Mile Soundtrack” by Eminem: “Well, no, I don’t actually “hang out” with black people. But I get it. You know, their whole deal.

“Crash” by Dave Matthews Band: “I know sororities are lame, but I’m still probably going to rush. You know, just like a goof. Because I am sooo not a dumb sorority girl. Right? Right?

    I want more. Is there a direct link to the article, or is it print subscription only?

    Argh. There’s no permalink to it. I clipped it from Utne Reader.
    Here’s another:
    “Terrapin Station” by The Gratful Dead: “Never mind what your dad did back then! I’m telling you now that pot is bad for you, mister!”
