Podcast: "I Feel Snitty," Episode 99: "'Tangerine' (parody based on the Bush song, 'Glycerine')" is now available!

The latest episode of my podcast ("I Feel Snitty"), entitled, "'Tangerine' (parody based on the Bush song, 'Glycerine')," is now available! Here are the lyrics:

“Tangerine” (to the tune of Bush’s “Glycerine”)

Your “strong thick” skin is orange in tint

It can’t be for real ‘cause Cheetos can’t speak

And Cheetos do mind

Syracuse too

Not to mention all the street cones

 

The thoughts are all white

And the heart’s black

Standing there spraying your back

You do want this

I don’t know why

High school prom always your alibi

 

Don’t let your skin go white

 

Tangerine

Tangerine

 

You’re never at home

At the (tanning) booth all the time

Are you asleep like your wedding night?

You live in a world

That doesn’t seem real

Willy Wonka telling you what to do

 

If you don’t follow through

He’ll turn against you

Oompa Loompas mad

Pissed and ready to sue

 

Don’t let your skin go white

 

It doesn’t have to be this way

You could finally accept the truth

Instead of fulfilling your dream

To oddly appear like a fruit

 

Tangerine

Tangerine

 

Don’t let your skin go white

 

Tangerine

 

Don’t let your skin go white

 

Tangerine

Tangerine

 

Tangerine

Tangerine

 

Orange man white again

Orange man white again

No, I am just kidding

 

You wanted it more

You needed it less

Head to toe you spray yourself

An addiction?

Something Freud can’t explain?

He’d say, “Fine”

“Just give me some cocaine”

 

Don’t let your skin go white

It doesn’t have to be this way, this way

 

Tangerine

Tangerine

 

Tangerine

Tangerine

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Face guarding is legal in college football and the NFL

I just wanted to remind fans and announcers especially, that face guarding is legal in both college football and the NFL. It all comes down to contact. So long as a defender doesn't make contact with an intended receiver, he doesn't have to turn around to play the ball. I can't tell you how many times every week I hear announcers talk about face guarding being a penalty. It's not. I even heard one announcer yesterday state, "If the defender doesn't turn around and play the ball, the ref will call pass interference every time." That's simply not true. Courtesy of referee Bill LeMonnier, he says this with regard to the rule at the college level (answered on 8/12/13): "NCAA rules on pass interference require the face guarding to have contact to be a foul. No contact, no foul by NCAA rules." In the NFL rule book, this is written:  "Actions that constitute defensive pass interference include but are not limited to: (a) Contact by a ...
