Stories from a man who fails to meet media expectations of what it means to be gay:
white, frivolous, over sexed yet sexless, shrill, single, stylish, a clown, unimportant, et al.

Songs that don’t meet specified requirements
Following the latest of music related memes, here are my favorite lines from the first random twenty songs on iTunes, chosen so as not to explicitly state the song title.
That’s what this was supposed to be. Sadly it wasn’t that simple. The first song was a disco classic, easy enough, but then there was some J-Pop, followed by a New Wave song, which being in English, I could at least pick out a line.
I tried to play fair, but iTunes kept tossing out Old French rap, wordless dance, old techno consisting of the same word repeated to a never ending beat, mood music from movie soundtracks,Samba, Trance, and even some Classical music.
After going through 36 songs to play the game, I came to the conclusion that my computer was messing with me.
Anyway, following the latest of music related memes, from iTunes, here are my favorite lines from the first random twenty songs that actually had lines, that were actually in a language I could understand, chosen so as to not explicitly state the song title:
But it don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing
I know I'm shouting, I like to shout.
You don’t want to let me see that your heart’s not made out of stone
In the dark your brain glows, and it goes “way um way, way um way, um”
And I'll be with him (-I know you will)
show off is a stupid thing, as any fool should know
Remember when you more easily lead behind the cricket pavilion & the bicycle shed?
I'm on a rainbow rafter, climbing up to where you are
Before you walk out that door, I’d better think about it once more
If we have to live there, you'll have to drug me
No quiere callar mi corazon
An old piece of bacon never eaten by Elvis
Look into my eyes, I wanna hypnotize...
You saw me crying, but now my eyes are dry
Daddy Daddy, it was just like you said, now that the living outnumber the dead.
The tyranny of distance didn't stop the cavalier, so why should it stop me?
Can't u see I'm harder than a man can get
I'll replace your drunk old man, sit in the parking lot and hold your hand
If only I could rule the sun and the sky, we never would have said goodbye
And then we'll sleep 'til 5 P.M. and start it up all over again
More later,
nico
oyendo: That would be cheating, assuming that you think of this as a game that is.
