    Okay…

    1. Don’t ever badmouth “Original Gangster” again, lol
    2. Yeah, this song is kind of campy, but I guess, for me and my friend group, we all kinda knew “that person” the song was about. He or she was dating at least one person in the group, so the song really struck home.

    I hope #2 wan’t too oddly specific lol.

    Edit: Lol, Original Prankster, not “Gangster”. Surprised nobody corrected either of us .

      Hahaha, I knew I’d get it for going against the Spring, but I really do love the band. When I was younger and I was introduced to Alternative they were one of the first bands I ever heard and I really fell in love. I had only a couple of their albums, but I really loved them and damned if I didn’t live by them for a while (Ixnay and Americana). I like the funky little instrumentals for Original Gangsta by the by. I just didn’t get the song, same kind of thing for like…Weezer’s Beverly Hills. I mean it’s for sure California rock but like…what? Just isn’t my cup of tea I guess, but also like…I am a sadist and I don’t like The Office (it actually hurts me to watch). So like maybe it’s just like not in me to be down with this kind of stuff. Idk.

      I actually totally know what you mean here! For my friend group it was blasting this cause we don’t like no bum ass bitches. At least, it was kind of the sentiment while jamming out to Get a Job. Different genres though, so it might sound like screeching cats to your ears just a heads up.
