neato


I find this whole idea interesting, because one of the Stupid Business Tricks I'd been considering doing is very similar: I want to have full-on metal covers of children's songs, and call it "Warui Ko no Douyou," (Songs for Bad Children) since I see so many collections of kids' songs here in Japan labeled "Yoi Ko no Douyou" (Songs for Good Children). I mean, picture a thrashing, grindy version of "Inu no O-Mawari-san" covered by Ningen Isu... (thanks, [livejournal.com profile] super_nyanko)

poetry

I think it's very strange that, as enamored as I am with language, I dislike poetry. This is not in the sense that I avoid bad LJ poetry; any sentient being with half-a-lobe devoted to self preservation will do that. I mean, I don't even like Robert Frost, Dylan Thomas, Yeats... I mean, I can't even get through The Wastelands, as much as I am of the impression that I'd "level up" culturally if I could navigate it. About the only poet I can deal with is Dorothy Parker. What the hell does that say about me?
