Got to be a nice chunk of change in there for Cedric and Omar

And the toilet industry and people destroy their toilets discarding it. And for laborers who replace toilets but only with joke toilets with tiny holes that are only for farts.

No offense, but you are exactly the sort of dude who hires some guys to put in a new toilet and turns up with a joke toilet with a tiny hole that’s only for farts because you were looking at your art/music books instead of paying attention to what they’re doing. Then you’d blame yourself thinking you bought the wrong toilet until you find the receipt in the trash.

probably only of true interest to hut.. i mean Starsky

i have somewhere a CD of Stillwater songs… but would be mildly interest in just that one disc of  the set but and they don't appear to offering just that CD standalone…  so oh well, you get a really overpriced playlist there

Looks sweet but pricey..for the price should be four LPs!

(looks like the clear vinyl is sold out, and you can't order the regular version yet)

No Code is a pile of ass. It’s really wild how good it Followup is compared to it. No Code is a nadir in a perfect capital letter V.

I’d agree it is rock bottom except nearly everything that followed is also a pile of ass.

I'll defend Yield.

That’s the one that keeps it at “nearly” everything.
