    That it's a marketing gimmick isn't a stretch. I'm not sure yet if the DNC is involved, but someone posted something about Soros purchasing a stash of her songs. But I'd say if you don't at least recognize it as marketing, you're clueless as to how the business models work in 2024.

    Again, nobody is talking about Taylor. Nobody.

    Who does that other than a hardcore fan? Like seriously, most of the time someone listens to isolated vocals of a band/artist, it's on some expensive box set of rarities for hardcore fans. I guess you can find them on YouTube because people can isolate them and upload them there, but it's still hardcore fans wanting to hear something not on regular studio album releases.

    What a nut.

    This just in: dugger is a hardcore Swifty.

    You are and can't stop obsessing. Girl, calm down. You and dugger can have an isolated vocals listening slumber party.

    Agree. It's pop music. Big damn deal. Nobody sez she's the next Emmy Rossum. Isolated vox typically sound not so great. Last I recall listening to were lindsey buckingham's on go your on way. Prob on song exploder.

    Now that I think on it, when the Gators were playing LSU in the CWS I got good and fed up with all the camera time Kim Mulkey got - she is coach of the LSU women’s basketball team and the mom of a hotdog player with bad hair who played for LSU. Every time he came to bat or fielded a ball - there she was - not to mention the interviews in the stand.

    When I was younger the elderly thought Ozzy was a legit demon and if you played some song backwards it told you to kill yourself. So every kid I knew tried to play the record backwards by turning it by hand. In hindsight, it was probably just a trick started by the record company to get kids to ruin their records and buy new ones.

    I move for a new forum rule:

    Any poster with any Taylor Swift reference in their handle is subject to an automatic permanent ban. No exceptions.

    We eat Asian food almost every day and the wife makes me cook the veggies. I'll make this sauce next time I do bok choy.

    rice vinegar is the bomb. When I have something like potstickers, I mix soy sauce, rice vinegar, a dash of 5 spice & a dash of fish sauce for a dipping sauce. Speaking of Asian food, I am going to a tet celebration on Sun. I can't wait.

    Taylor Swift is quickly becoming the new Meghan Markle/Prince Harry. Don’t get me wrong, she’s a lot more likable and infinitely more talented than them.

    But this routine is getting so obnoxious. “Look at her, she’s everywhere, she’s the biggest star in the world…” *we notice and find it overdone to the point where it’s mildly annoying* “Why do you care so much about her?”

    A lot of people clearly care about her, otherwise she wouldn’t be arguably the biggest musician ever at her age. So its not “sing her praises or shut your pie hole.” That’s not how any of this works.

    My favorite being "Travis Kelce was paid $20 million to do one commercial for Pfizer. There's nothing to see here."

    Wife had already cut mixed veggies, so I made veggie stir fry with the sauce recipe. It's very good.
