  3. Anyone else on here play Robot Unicorn Attack?

    (Its way cooler than it sounds)
  4. OMG, I had never thought of putting it into abbreviated form... that's amazing. Best topic title ever. Thanks for writing it, Aaron, you've made my evening

    I coulnd't tell if that was sarcasm or not, but I found your post to be comical enough it really didn't matter to me.


    But seriously though. We abbreviate song titles all the time. My as well do it with topic titles.
  6. It wasn't sarcasm at all, promise. It was just that when you abbreviated it, resulted a such long expression that made me laugh.

    It is funny when abbreviations are so long, you'ed be better off just using the full title.
  8. not bad

  9. 13 years ago today, U2 played to Savajevo. What an outstanding concert it was.

    Being Born is in a minor key, and Miami is in major. Doesn't sound good, but if you like it......
