oooh Soup du Jour... what kind of soup is that?
Not even a page through this list and I'm noticing a dangerous trend. Believe it or not, some of these things you're familiar with... well, others aren't. Things like Soup du Jour and Goombas are not school curriculum, it's pop culture. I'm not going to berate people for not knowing Flavor Flav was part of Public Enemy, and John Connor was wearing a Public Enemy shirt throughout Terminator 2, and speaking of funny shirts, Jack Black wore a Yanni shirt in High Fidelity, and he was the older brother who went to war in Mars Attacks. No, that's ridiculous, and it'd be sad for anyone to gather as much useless information as most of us do. Hell, if everyone knew the same stuff, nobody would have much to say, would they?
This one was pretty fantastic, though, while I eavesdropped on this loud early-20s kid in a Steak n Shake one night:
"Hey, do you like to party? 'cuz I like to party, but I don't party during the week because I work and do classes and stuff, but SOMETIMES I party then, too, because it's just so nice to cut loose, ya know? But if I party then, there's less people, so it's a pretty lame party, so I party on the weekend more when my bros can come, so if you want to come to a party, let me know and you can come party with me, 'cuz I throw a pretty good party. Do you like to party?"
