People with taste. Now go pop in your Van Halen cd for the umpteenth time, tardo.

Thanks, Sam.

(dins will deny he likes them, btw)

The Decemberists seem to me as if they'd be at home at a RenFaire event. My kids, aged 6 and 8, love them, so I often hear the music playing. It makes me grope feverishly for anything remotely featuring a 5-pc. trap drumset and a preponderance of 4/4. ROCK, muthafuckah.

I don't have children, but I am an uncle to 4 kids. It seems the going trend nowadays are 5-pc bands for entertainment to the age 2 - 7 demographic. The Wiggles kind of started this trend, didn't they?

The Wiggles are a four-piece "band." I have young grandkids - that's how I know. As far as you know, anyway.

Vaginal geysering for Stevie Vai in 3...2...1...

I'm just sayin' when the little ones come over for a weekend when my sister or brother need to get away, I don't seem to cringe to the non-stop Wiggles DVD playing. I did cringe when they wanted to watch Barney.

According to Business Review Weekly magazine, The Wiggles were Australia's highest grossing entertainers for the year 2005, earning more than AC/DC and Nicole Kidman combined.

You're a strange dude.

You're supposed to indoctrinate them, dude, not just lie back and take a Wiggles ear-buttfucking.

At least bust out some Stevie Wonder or something - but not in the presence of your elephantine spouse, that is if you value your floorboards.

I'll admit that it's factual that the Wiggles out-gross AC/DC...but it certainly doesn't please me at all.

Shit - 'round my house, kids are head-banging to Hell ain't a Bad Place to Be...NOT some Aussie metrosexual prancing troupe.

What about the pirate? He participates sometimes, thus adding a fifth to the four piece band.

Might want to start with 10,000,000 on that countdown.

Werd.

The future 'lil BSmack ain't going to be bopping around to the Wiggles. Now Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly...

I took care of that shit as soon as my son was old enough to be entertained by the television by envoking a zero-tolerance clause in reference to all things Barney. He liked the Wiggles for awhile, but outgrew them for regular cartoons fairly quickly.

When we get in the car my son (now 5 years old) says, "Daddy, I want to hear MY music," which means that he wants me to tune the Sirius radio to "Octane". If you've never heard Octane, it's all Marilyn Manson, Tool, and that type of aggro/angry rock. War kids into hard rock.

Goober McTuber · Post by **Goober McTuber** » Tue Jul 24, 2007 7:30 pm

My 5-year-old grandson quickly (and thankfully) outgrew the Wiggles phase. He’s heavy into Thomas the Tank Engine. [uselessfact]Two of the three narrators for Thomas are Alec Baldwin and George Carlin.[/uselessfact]) He also likes SpongeBob, which is cool because that show has a definite adult bent going on that seems to sail over his head.

RumpleForeskin · Post by **RumpleForeskin** » Tue Jul 24, 2007 7:38 pm

My nephew, 5, is into Batman BIG TIME, so I don't mind watching those cartoons with him when he is over for the weekend. SpongeBob is pretty cool. I tried watching Family Guy one night when it was close to my nephew's bedtime, but my wife siad that was a BAD idea. I don't think my nephew picked up on any of the jokes, but at least it was animated which made it entertaining for the both of us.

WAR the future mass murderers of the world.

Right, because Jeffrey Dahmer looked like he was right out of the Marilyn Manson fan club photo shoot. Yup, you're an idiot.

You're probably the same type of guy that thinks that songs like "Suicide Solution" or "Fade to Black" make people kill themselves...

Would you have been a little less tense if I added a smiled to my post?

OCmike · Post by **OCmike** » Tue Jul 24, 2007 7:57 pm

Here, let's try...

"Hey, your kid's a future mass murderer

"

Nope, still something that would elicit a terse response.

As for the title -- they're alright. I've heard plenty worse. I don't go too far out of my way to listen to the Decemberists, although I have seen them live.

I know they have a devout following on this board, though.
