What the hell do you think you’re doing, Josh?

“Don’t call me that.”

That’s what Pitchfork says your name is. What are you doing?

“Randos?”

“I’m gonna be in Phish now.”

MotherFUCKer.

“I discovered I love jamming in front of white people on acid. I used to solo in front of drunk white people, but this is way more fun. So I’m thinking about joining Phish and being their guitarist and singer.”

Like, in addition to Trapqueen?

“We’ll see.”

Please don’t have Trey Anastasio murdered so you can take his place.

“I said, ‘we’ll see.’ I gotta talk to the Big Man.”

Irving Azoff?

“The nickname is ironic on one level, but sincere on many others.”

Sure. Don’t do this. The Phish Phans are meaner than the Deadheads.

“How bad can they be?”

Fucking vicious.

“Yeah, still: I’m gonna be in Phish.”

I did not see this coming.

“Me either! But here we are.”

Sure.

That’s, like, your shirt of the summer, huh?

“This is Sammy Miami Chartreuse Label.”

How is that different than a regular Sammy Miami shirt?

“Much more expensive.”

Sure.

Mickey Pulsed And Throbbed

Jesus, Mickey.

“We did, though! All of us together, pulsing and throbbing in rhythm. There was also thrusting.”

Ew.

“And those that could not thrust were juicy.”

Weird.

“Were our boners made from drums, or our drums from boners?”

Neither.

“Don’t call me to the blackboard, teacher: I’m here with my friends, pulsing and throbbing.”

Stop.

“Last night, Oteil pulsed while I throbbed; this night, we switch. He got sore.”

What?

“Thrulsing.”

Nope.

“Pobbing”

Nuh-uh.

“GlaaaarMAAAflarn.

You’re just making sounds now, Mickey.

“Drums!”

Good talk.

“Bob?”

“Sure?”

“I must say I’m a bit disappointed with you for dosing me.”

“Well, I didn’t do it.”

“You knew it was happening.”

“Oh, yeah. I didn’t encourage it, though.”

“But you also didn’t stop it.”

“Where’s the bliss in that?”

“Bob?”

“Yoko?”

“I have warned you about that.”

“Shut the fuck up, limey!”

“You tell him, Billy! Watch your mouth, fuckface!”

“Good one, Mick! I’ll punch your wig in the dick, you talk to Weir that way!”

“Yeah, only we get to talk to Weir that way.”

“Yeah!”

“Yeah!”

“You let your drummers speak?”

“Can’t rightly stop ’em most of the time.”

“Wow. Ringo cleared his throat too loudly once, and Lennon choked him out.”

“Huh.”

“How long will we be Lego?”

“Another post or two.”

“What?”

“Nothing.”

The Phuture Phucks You

Wilbard made this, because he could, and I am posting it, because I should: it is a thing of beauty, only to be surpassed by how annoyed it will make Phish Persons.

So you should certainly not send it to all of the Phishies you know. Definitely don’t do that. Whatever you do, don’t put it on Phantasy Tour under the title “Make Phish Great Again.” Oh, no.

“How did you get this–”

“John, shut the fuck up or I’ll drive to where you are and RUN YOU THE FUCK OVER, you little BALLSUCKING SHITSTAIN.”

“–number?”

“You’ve changed.”

“FUCK YOU, FUCKHOLE! You need to sit those NEARLY-DEAD COCKPUDDLES YOU’RE BUTTFUCKING down and tell them WHAT’S FUCKING WHAT, you pigeon-toed HAIRCUT WITH AN ERECTION!”

“The Dead?”

“WHO DO YOU THINK, ASSMOUTH? I need to date a Grateful Dead.”

“But they’re not cute, and they smell.”

“Y’know what’s gonna smell? When I SHIT IN YOUR ASS, and then make you SHIT MY SHIT, and THEN FEED YOU MY SHIT THAT YOU SHIT, YOU SHIT! My Q rating SUCKS thanks to that MELTED BARBIE OF AN ARMENIAN WHORE and you will help me out of this or YOU WILL DIE AT MY MANICURED HAND.”

“Okay, okay!”

“SHUT THE FUCK UP AND FIX THIS!”

[EDIT: Sold ’em. Only took an hour. I will count the purchaser a synechdoche for the entire readership, and say that you are lovely people who know how get the best deals, just great deals.

Stop that.

Oh, come on! We can’t do the dialogue thing in a damn post-script edit

This is a pre-script.

Sure, but it came after the scripting temporally.

Close the brackets.

Kiss my dick.]

I have an offer for you, Enthusiasts, wrapped in yet another personal failure. Do you remember the headphones? I got all excited and obsessed and bothered all of you about it, and then the more-money-than-I-wanted-to-spend ‘phones arrived and they made my ears red-hot with pain?

They look like this:

Sony-MDR-7506

They’re a quality product–4.5 stars from 3,200 reviews on Amazon–and they sound good, and the blue is a lovely shade. The sound is exceptional and wide and see-through: the air between the musicians is visible, and you can make out the whole stage in front of your ears, and I cannot wear them for longer than an hour.

I scrolled through those Amazon reviews, specifically the shitty ones; all of them mentioned the sound or the weight (which is silly, because the weight is not the problem) or something else, but no one reported my difficulty, so the conclusion must be reached that my ears are in the wrong place. They are normal sized–I was not teased about them in my youth–but at this late stage in the game it now becomes evident that I am a monster and a freak.

(And it is definitely my misshapen noggin at fault here: Sony’s been selling this model since 1991. It’s me.)

You, however, are most likely in the overwhelmingly vast majority of human beings with correctly-affixed ears, and if you need a pair of headphones, I’ll make you a deal.

$75. I’ll eat the shipping. They have been worn for less than 24 hours total, and placed back in the original packaging, as have the accessories.

Did I mention there are accessories? They look like this:

750-MDR7506_detail1

That is a genuine pouch right there, and you don’t have to put the headphones in it if you don’t want to: you can put your weed in there, and there are drawstrings. There is also a 1/4″ adaptor, and when you slide the small plug into the bigger one, it is a little sexual.

That’s just you.

GET OUT OF HERE. I’M SELLING THINGS.

Jackass.

I bought them from Musician’s Friend for 80 bucks, and they want $15 to ship them back, so fuck those guys. Also, something about community and I love you or whatnot. This is mostly a “fuck those guys” thing. Please help me fuck those guys.

There you go: the most lightly-used pair Sony headphones available on the internet, from a name you trust. (Kind of.) First person to hit me up gets ’em, plus a random object from my home.
