Random Thoughts That Don’t Warrant Their Own Thread: 2025

Discussion in 'The Mainboard' started by Clown Baby, Jan 1, 2025.

  1. I love Bob Dylan but his voice is definitely an acquired taste. I liked when the trailer for the new Bob Dylan biopic dropped and i saw some reaction video from some teenage girl who was a superfan of Timothee Chamalet and she was like ‘Oh no he is terrible at singing :(‘ then she listened to a Bob Dylan song and she said ‘Oh he is amazing at sounding like that terrible singer!’

    I always thought Yellow Ledbetter was my favorite song, then I heard Pink Pony Club like 15 times over a trip up north, and now I guess I do have to entertain that maybe the favorite song of my life hasn’t been made yet.

    I don’t think she’ll release a song I like more than Blank Space. YA County isn’t my jam.

    My town has an arts commission which approves public works of art and occasionally funds them.

    They approved a local graffiti artist to do the following (not sure if funded him):

    The railroad has had the right away since at least the 1870’s.

    The town is 25 miles outside Cincinnati and exists because two railroads crossed each other, forcing one to stop depending upon track priority. It’s named Loveland because there was a post office there and the guy who ran it was named Loveland.

    The suburbs caught up in the 1980’s.

    There also is an alternative road, that goes directly through town, but trucks don’t want to stop.

    So 20 years ago I went to a river/waterfall down my house. I stupidly wore my class ring and it slipped off and fell into the river. No way I would ever find it. I got this sent to me a little bit ago. Unreal

    So funny story. The brochure they gave us with the options like ring color, what stone we wanted, what we wanted on the side, etc…

    I got class of 2007 on one side. And my basketball number on the other side. Somehow…the code # for the basketball number was similar to a code # for a fucking piano.

    my class ring has a piano on the side of it. The ring company came back a few months later with the corrected version of my ring to switch out…and I had the unfortunate privilege of telling them it’s currently at the bottom of a river.

    Guy walks into a bar, sits down, and pulls out a case. Inside the case is a miniature man playing a miniature piano. The bartender says “what the hell is that?” Guy says “a genie in a lamp gave it to me.” Bartender asks if he can see the lamp and the guy pulls it out of his pocket. Bartender rubs it and suddenly the bar is full of a million ducks. Bartender says “I wished for a million bucks not a million ducks!” Guy says “do you think I asked for a 10 inch pianist?”

    a friend of mine was in on one this year locally. They tried to upsell him on paid placements for his business but he declined them and was still able to be listed as a 40 under 40.

    My wife was in one as well but her company may have paid for it. she definitely did not.

    If you can get maybe 5 of the 40 people to spring for a photo package or buying ads, them I'm sure it would cover the entire costs (photographer, printing, getting small event space) of running the '40 under 40'. Someone in this thread probably has experience.
