RickDickens77: Am I supposed to appreciate that?
RickDickens77: Am I supposed to go OH THANKS FOR TRYING SO HARD TO PEE ON MY CLOTHES LOU

Listening to The National’s version of “Twenty Miles To NH” while visiting this website makes me long for the most primitive of winamp animations that would always line up to the sonnnnng you were listening to and it was the coolest when you were in grade seven and computers were still new to you. I approve of this website.
