hey, maybe this is why i did so well on the mensa test. while something like state of emergency is really just mindless button-mashing, i was once able to break into my own apartment by applying problem solving skills i had developed from zelda, saving me from a night of sleeping in the hallway. cool, eh?

i'm pretty sure the commercial senor kreblog is referring to features dirty vegas' "days go by" (hydrogen rockers vocal mix). that was an easy one :)

hmm, apparently i have a good chance of getting into mensa. do you?

maybe record companies, in retrospect, will realize that marketing almost exclusively to the tween demographic was a bad idea. maybe they'll realize that while they spent millions on promoting derivative crap like o-town (who are everywhere, but do you think anyone actually knows a song they sing?) people were walking around humming basement jaxx and daft punk, and buying radiohead and gorillaz cd's (music considered too "weird" for the masses). maybe this is just wishful thinking, like hoping portishead will actually release a new cd sometime within the next five years.
