Frank Zappa and The Mothers - “Billy The Mountain (Live At Pauley Pavilion, UCLA, Los Angeles, 1971)”

Billy the mountain Billy the mountain A regular picturesque Postcardy mountain Residing between lovely Rosamond and Gorman With his stunning wife Ethell A tree! A tree!

Billy was a mountain Ethel was a tree Growing off of his shoulder Billy was a mountain Ethel was a tree Growing off of his shoulder

Billy had two big Caves for eyes With a cliff for a jaw That would go up 'n down And whenever it did He'd puff out some dust And hack up a boulder (hack!) Hack up a boulder (hack! hack!) Hack up a boulder (hack! hack! hack!) Hack up a boulder

Now, one day, a man in a checkered suit drove up in a big Lincoln continental, and he laid a huge Bulging envelope right at the corner of billy the mountain Right where his 'foot' was supposed to be Now, billy the mountain, he couldn't believe it! All those postcards he'd posed for, for over these years And finally, now, at last, his royalties! Royalties! [repeat: x5] You might also like Call Any Vegetable (Live) Frank Zappa Tears Began to Fall Frank Zappa Bobby Brown (Goes Down) Frank Zappa Billy the mountain was rich! his eyeball-caves widened in amazement His cliff (which was his jaw), it dropped thirty feet! Ooh, a bunch of dust puffed out! rocks and boulders hacked up (hack! hack! hack! hack hack! hack! hack!) crushing 'the Lincoln'! Now, the man in the checkered suit, well Without his car he went screaming off into the desert at sunset All the way to Rosamond to get a beer and tell everybody there Including Ronnie Cook what had happened to his car I gave him the money He acted real funny He hocked up a rock and It totaled my car!

Oh, do you Know any trucks Might be bound for the Valley? I don't want to stand here All night in this bar (dear lord)

I don't want to stand here All night in this bar (no shit!)

I don't want to stand here All night in this bar! By two o'clock, and the bars are already closed down Billy had already broken 'the big news' to Ethel With dust and boulders everywhere, billy, choked with excitement, announced "Ethel, we're going on a vacation!"

Yes, and they were going on a vacation! (oh, and Ethel, Ethel, Ethel, Ethel just like a woman Of course she was delighted! she creaked a little bit And some old birds flew off of her Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song) Billy told Ethel they were going to They were going to New York! "Ethel, we're going to New York!" But first they were gonna stop in Las Vegas It's off to Las Vegas To check out the lounges Pull a few handles Drink a few beers (oh, Ethel!)

Ethel, my darling You know that I love you! I'm glad we could have a Vacation this year! (oh, neet-o!)

Glad we could have a Vacation this year!

They left that night, crunchin' across the mojave desert Their voices echoing through the canyons of your minds "Ethel, want to get a cuppa cawfee?" (Howard Johnson's! [Repeat: 4x])

"there's a Howard Johnsons! want to eat some clams?" The first noteworthy piece of real estate they destroyed was Edwards Air Force Base And to this very day, 'wing nuts' and data reduction clerks alike Speak in reverent whispers about that fateful night when Test stand number one and the rocket sled itself got LUNCHED! By a famous mountain-in and his small, wooden wife Good bye to Las Vegas Farewell to the lounges We pulled a few handles We drank a few beers

Guess that George Putnam Should be on the air now With the biggest new story That has broken this year (George Putnam!)

His biggest new story That has broken this year (Take it away, George!)

"Word just in to the KTTV news service undeniably links This mountain and his wife to drug abuse And pay-offs as part of a San Joaquin Valley smut ring! However, we can assure parents in the Southern California area That a recent narcotics crack-down In Torrance, Hawthorne, Lomita Westchester, Playa del Rey, Santa Monica Tujunga, Sunland, San Fernando, Pacoima, Sylmar Newhall, Canoga Park Palmdale, Glendale, Irwindale Rolling Hills, Granada Hills, Shadow Hills, Cheviot Hills Will provide the secret evidence The Palmdale grand jury has needed to seek a criminal indictment And pave the way for stiffer legislation, increased federal aid And avert a crippling strike of bartenders and veterinarians throughout the inland empire But it is this reporter's opinion that Ethel is a former Communist" Within the week, Jerry Lewis had hosted a telethon ("wah wah wah, nice lady!") to raise funds for the injured (injured) and homeless (homeless) in Denver As Billy had just levelled it, and, a few miles right outside of town Billy caused a 'Oh Mein Papa' in the earth's crust Right over the secret underground dumps where they keep the pools of old poison gas And obsolete germ bombs, just as a freak tornado cruised through (my baby, my baby, my baby, my baby) [repeat: x3]

Sucking up two thirds of it (suck! suck! suck!) For untimely dispersal over vast stretches of ... WATTS! Now, it was about this time, I think it was right outside of Columbus, Ohio that billy got his notice to report for his induction physical Now, believe me, Ethel said she wasn't gonna let him go!

"I'm not gonna let you go, billy!" And george putnam, the right-wing creepo fascist pig newscaster from los angeles said (take it away george putnam The right-wing fascist radical creepo pig newscaster from los angeles!)

"we now have confirmed reports from an informed orange county minister That ethell is still an active communist And it's this reporter's opinion that she also practices witch-craft!"

It was about this time that the telephone rang in the secret briefcase Belonging to the one mortal man Who might be able to stop all of this senseless destruction and save 'america herself'!

Now, some men say he looked like (he looked like) Felix Pappalardi (Felix Pappalardi); still others say (others say) Bullshit, man (bullshit, man) he was just born (he was born) Next to the frozen beef pies at Gristede's (frozen beef pies) Still others say (others say he was just another) Again, he was just a crazy Italian (crazy Italian) who drove a red car You see it was hard to tell (but nobody knows) Nobody knew for sure (for sure) He was so (so) mysterious (mysterious) Oh yes, he was He was so (he was so, he was so!) Mysterious!

He was so Mysterious!

Cause when a person gets to be Such a hero, folks And marvelous beyond compute You can never really tell About a guy like that (whether he's really a nice person Or if he just smiles a lot) (what?) Or if he has a son named 'pinocchio' Or what?

Whether he's really a nice person or if he has a son named 'pinocchio' or what? Some men say he could fly Some men say he could swim Others say he could sing (like neil sedaka) And all the girls in flushing Would be amazed of him (two, three!) Amazed of him!

Time passes... January, February, March, July Wednesday August Irwindale 2:30 in the afternoon Sunday! Monday... Funny Cars! Walnut! Friday City of Industry Big John Mazamanian!

So when the phone rang In the secret briefcase (thank you) A strong masculine hand With a wristwatch And flexy bracelet Grabbed it And answered In a deep, calmly assured voice:

"yes, this is he! what? a mountain with a tree growing off of its shoulder? You're fulla shit, man, what? what, uh, are, are you sure? Oh well, alright, let me write this down then, sorta take a few notes here, to new york? Causing untold destruction?" (my baby, my baby, my baby, my baby, oh! My baby, my baby, my baby, my baby My baby, my baby My baby, my baby, my baby My baby, my baby) (my baby, my baby, my baby)

"wanted for draft evasion? Can I, can I fly there immediately and reason with him? An expense account? and per diem, too?" Some men say he could dance! Yes, he could dance And here it is, ladies and gentlemen The studebaker hoch dancing lesson & cosmic prayer for guidance featuring aynsley dunbar Twirly, twirly, twirly, twirly, twirly, twirly, twirly, hey! Right hand from the heart-uh (professional) Left hand from the heart-uh (exquisite) Right hand from the heart-uh (homunculus) Left hand from the left shoulder To the heart-uh

Twirly, twirly, twirly, twirly, twirly, twirly, twirly, twirly, hey! There were a number of rumors circulating about studebaker hoch recently Consider if you will the rumors that have spread that he could write The lord's prayer on the head of a pin! Some men say he could write the lord's prayer On the head of a Head of a Head of a pin (three dog night) (yeah)

Other still maintain the fact! (good god!) He was born next to the frozen beef pies (and that was the main influence on him!)

Boldly springing into action, he phoned his wife (who ran a modeling school) Whereupon she he ran around the back of 'gimbel's' To see if he could find some big un-used cardboard boxes

After which, he hit up gristede's for some 'kaiser broiler foil' Some 'aunt jemima syrup', and a pair of blunt scissors! hey-hey! Yes, and in the parking lot across the street from the One fifth avenue hotel (in between a pair of customized trucks where nobody was looking) He cut out a pair of really, really nice wings, and he covered 'em thoroughly with foil . . . thoroughly with foil thoroughly with foil . . . thoroughly with foil . . . thorougly with foil Thoroughly with foil Thoroughly with with foil!

Then he took those 'wings' And wedged one under each of his powerful arms and sneaked into a telephone booth

He closed the door! and he pulled down his gray denim bus driver type pants And he spread even amounts of aunt jemima syrup all over the inside of his legs Right underneath his boxer pretty shorts, ha ha ha! Soon the booth was filling with flies! (help me, help me, help me!) He held open the legs of his boxer shorts so they could all get in Yes! and when each and every one of those little Each and every one of those little cocksuckin' flies had gone into his boxer shorts And was lapping up all that good aunt jemima syrup He bent over and he put his head between his legs And he said to those little flies in a clear, impressive voice "new york!" And the booth and everything lifted up, out of the parking lot, and into the sky! Studebaker Yeah, yeah Studebaker Studebaker

Studebaker Yeah, yeah Studebaker Studebaker

He's coating his legs With aunt jemima syrup up and down!

His shorts'll be filled with flies That will be buzzing all around! (help me, help me, help me!)

Stoodlabaker hoch He's really outa sight! Stoodlabaker hoch He does it every night! Stoodlabaker hoch He treats the flies all right Stoodla-baker hoch That's why they never bite, hey!

(please to new york! Fly to new york!)

He could be a dog Or a frog Or a lesbian queen!

(fly to new york!) He could be a nark Or a lady marine!

Or he might play dirty! He's over thirty! (getting old? say! I don't know!)

His peculiar attire And the flies he require Keep leading him on Cause ethell is gone And the mountain she's on

(please to new york! Fly to new york!)

(fly to new york!) (i don't know!) His peculiar attire And the flies he require Keep leading him on Cause ethell is gone They keep leading him on Cause ethell is gone And the mountain she's on

We join studebaker hoch standing on the edge of billy the mountain's mouth "billy? I've come to reason with you! Our great country needs you in the armed forces! Why, it's all fair and square, the lottery, you know? your number came up You can't go on running like this forever." Ethell shook her twigs angrily, but studebaker hoch, un-ferturbed, continued "listen, you (cough cough) listen, you communist son-of-a-bitch! You better get your ass down there for your fuckin' physical Or I'll see to it that you get used for fill dirt In some impending new jersey marsh reclamation And your girl-friend here will wind up disguised as a series of brooms Primitive ironing boards (or a dog house) Get the (cough, cough), get the picture?" Billy just laughed "ho, ho, ho! if they think they're gonna draft me, they're crazy!" Now you'd remember that studebaker hoch was standing on the edge of billy's mouth So that when he laughed, he lost his balance and unfortunately fell Screaming, two hundred feet into the rubble below!

(that was only one hundred feet, you carnaby cutie Let's hear another set!)

Which only goes to prove A mountain is something You don't want to fuck with You don't want to fuck with Don't fuck around (don't fuck around)

Don't fuck with billy And don't fuck with ethell

(you saw what just happened To the guy with the flies!)

Don't fuck around! [repeat: x7]

With Biddilly, biddilly Biddilly, biddilly, biddilly

Biddilly The Mountin!

Some Super Relatebleness 4 2day

Heres prolly my 3 fav songs... 1) Suicidal Thought Josh A and Iamjake hill

I'm not suicidal, I don't wanna fucking die I just wanna be able to close my eyes and feel alright But every day I feel like dying Every day I feel like dyingWhy do I even try? Why do I even write lyrics about how I'm living the life When I'm battling pain and my demons at night? Trying to find a new outlet The devil pouncin', I hear him howlin', my vision cloudin' Man, I tried to escape but there ain't no way Try to be strong when I deal with the pain, yeah But I'm ditching the coffin, so my family has options Gotta work 'til I'm dead so that they get the best Don't wanna set up a bad example 'Cause the kids looking up can't leave in shambles Can't make them think clocking out's okay So fuck suicide, I'm here to stayTry to free my mind I don't know what's right Wasting all my time Tryna find the light Try to free my mind I don't know what's right Wasting all my time Tryna find the light, no no I'll be out here runnin', I'll be runnin' from myself now Gunnin' demons down, find my way out of this hell now I'll be runnin' now, I'll be runnin' from myself now Gunnin' demons down, find my way out of this hell nowI'm not suicidal, I don't wanna fucking die I just wanna be able to close my eyes and feel alright But every day I feel like dying Every day I feel like dyingOne too many bad thoughts inside me Got a hole in my heart put the past behind me I'm pressed with time, I'm stressed with life, my breath is ice I guess I might just bottle it up some more just like always Barely standing, crawling down the hallways Sink into my bed, with death inside my head Yeah, that note you found? I didn't mean it Just wish I had a better sense of meaning Never meant to let you down, I've been down and out Racing thoughts had to drown them out, fuck Never giving in I swear to God No matter how many times I prayed to a God I don't believe in Just to see if I will never wake up, but he called my bluffTry to free my mind I don't know what's right Wasting all my time Tryna find the light Try to free my mind I don't know what's right Wasting all my time Tryna find the light, no no I'll be out here runnin', I'll be runnin' from myself now Gunnin' demons down, find my way out of this hell now I'll be runnin' now, I'll be runnin' from myself now Gunnin' demons down, find my way out of this hell nowI'm not suicidal, I don't wanna fucking die I just wanna be able to close my eyes and feel alright But every day I feel like dying Every day I feel like dying (I'm not suicidal, I don't wanna fucking die) (I just wanna be able to close my eyes and feel alright) (But every day I feel like dying) (Every day I feel like dying)

3) Boulevard of Broken Dreams

I walk a lonely road The only one that I have ever known Don't know where it goes But it's only me, and I walk aloneI walk this empty street On the boulevard of broken dreams Where the city sleeps And I'm the only one, and I walk aloneI walk alone, I walk alone I walk alone, and I walk aMy shadow's only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me 'Til then I walk aloneAh ah ah ah ah Ah ah ahI'm walking down the line That divides me somewhere in my mind On the border line of the edge And where I walk aloneRead between the lines What's fucked up and every thing's all right Check my vital signs to know I'm still alive And I walk aloneI walk alone, I walk alone I walk alone and I walk aMy shadow's only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me 'Til then I walk aloneAh ah ah ah ah Ah ahI walk alone, and I walk aI walk this empty street On the boulevard of broken dreams Where the city sleeps And I'm the only one, and I walk aMy shadow's only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me 'Til then I walk alone

I’ve been having a really depressing time lately and these are some of the songs i’ve been listening to.

The underdog, yeah, you prolly think you know what I mean

But what I'm saying is they ever push me, I'm gonna swing, yeah

Tagged by @superjojolimon , considering how vague the “rules” are i have Rebelliously Interpreted the questions as changeable so i just like swerved whatever seemed 2 plain for my tastes. also a lot of these just seem repeated/too similar?

rules: answer 30 questions and tag 20 blogs you wanna get to know better

gender: female

star sign: sag rising, libra sun, taurus moon ;^)

height: 5′3″ but can and will kill you

mood: a dimly lit image of a possum eating oreos. munchin crunchin havin a good night

favorite bands: death grips ..... i’d say more but i’ll let u all think on that one for awhile ....

song stuck in my head: like. the ending credits to spongebob

favorite animal: trick question its All of Them.

last movie I watched: i watch NOTHING ......... i have. never watched shit or fuck in my entire life?? ?. .. i actually cant remember i Really dont watch movies, the only ones i really like are perks of being a wallflower, internal sunshine of the spotless mind, and donnie darko

last text u sent: ok i screenshot this picture of funny valentine and his stand like “couple goals” ... .. . .. .

when did I create my blog: i dont know or care but when i made it i hadnt even read part 8 ??? i literally was committing to yasugap before i even really knew what it was like ............ im such an authentic fan,.. also, the only other part i’ve read is 4, which i read solely because i saw a picture of josuke and loved him with my Life .. i literally only read it for josuke content and didnt care much (and still dont) for the real story of it. i enjoy part 8, story wise, way more but also i love josuke2.0 a lot and i just.. . love josuke And josuke bitch whathe thefculk1!!!

fear fear fear fear fear: i am extremely hesitant to invest in any potentially horrific or goretastic display because i have like. the worst paranoia. in january youtube kept playing when my sister and i fell asleep and when i woke up it was on a video of markiplier playing an scp game and it Shook me so much. i have literally never been the same. theres an scp thats just shadows on the wall and now i cant stop hyperfixating on the shadow on my bedroom door at night... it iis !! the worst!!!! bitch!!!! :^(

another strange fear is that, i sometimes get this extreme paranoia im not alone in the bathroom and i will typically pull back the shower curtain to make sure nothing’s hiding. i’ve also legitimately checked under my bed and in my closet, but the bathroom fear is a lot stronger than those for some reason.

last thing I googled: oh my god its “funny valentine” ... w-what a shock!! wh..o wouldve guessed. ... .. have i mentioned i havent read part 7,

sipp: i actually cannot live ... without coke ... uhm ..., i prefer coke entirely flat but also cold. i pour them out into a cup and set them in the fridge to fizz out. literally. also i cant stand ice in drinks.

hmmm one of those uh GET THE BOOK NEAREST 2 U AND READ THE 69TH WORD OF THE 420TH PAGE: ok so this book is house of leaves. it is my favorite book and has been for a few years but i’ve never finished reading it ;^)

i think the technical 69th word was ‘in,’ but here’s the whole lil paragraph there: “Near the centre, in crisp focus, squats Delial, bone dangling in her tawny almost inhuman fingers, her lips a crawl of insects, her eyes swollen with sand. Illness and hunger are on her but Death is still a few paces behind, perched on a rocky mound, talons fully extended, black eyes focused on Famine’s daughter.” this book has a writing style i extremely admire. it is filled with senseless, mindnumbing extents of detail and confusion, it feels almost like a modernized version of poe’s style???? also neat about this book is the looks - if you’re interested, try looking up just pages from house of leaves.

last thing u devoured viciously: we went 2 this mexican restaurant i’ve been to a bunch, i always get the same thing, but this time i got this taco salad. it was disappointing. like it literally wasnt good and i was upset,

NAME???? i just realized this question isnt here like how are u going to get to know me without THIS ...: like,, i dabble a ton in original content & characters, and my ... sonas are always named maizzey starr, and “maizzey starr” is like my BRAND so i go by maizzey a lot but as far as my real literal name ITS KAMRYN !!!!!!! like im so unique and good ..... ... ... starts crying

password style: i have only had like four different passwords in my Life. this makes it supremely easy to figure one out on a really old account or website.... i dont understand people who ...... make up different passwords for everything,, i also never initially use capital letters unless prompted. i do use numbers in like one of them.

I'm sick of them sweatsuits and them corny hats, let's talk about it

I'm sick of you bein' rich and you still mad, let's talk about it

Both of us single dads from the Midwest, we can talk about it

Or we could get gully, I'll size up your body

And put some white chalk around it

-Rap Devil (Machine Gun Kelly, Eminem Diss)

You don't wanna fuck with me

Girls neither, you ain't nothin' but a slut to me

Bitch, I'ma kill you! You ain't got the balls to beef

We ain't gon' never stop beefin', I don't squash the beef

You better kill me, I'ma be another rapper dead

For poppin' off at the mouth with shit I shouldn't have said

But when they kill me, I'm bringin' the world with me

Bitches too, you ain't nothin' but a girl to me

-Kill You (Eminem)

But then of course everything always happens for a reason

I guess it was never meant to be

But it's just something we have no control over and that's what destiny is

But no more worries, rest your head and go to sleep

Maybe one day we'll wake up and this will all just be a dream

Now hush little baby, don't you cry

Everything's gonna be alright

Stiffen that upper lip up little lady, I told ya

Daddy's here to hold ya through the night

-Mockingbird (Eminem)

Yeah, it's my life

My own words, I guess

Have you ever loved someone so much

You'd give an arm for

Not the expression, no

Literally give an arm for

When they know they're your heart

And you know you are their armor

And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm her

But what happens when karma

Turns right around and bites you

And everything you stand for turns on you to spite you

What happens when you become the main source of her pain

-When I’m gone (Eminem)

When did I become so numb?

When did I lose myself?

All the words that leave my tongue

Feel like they came from someone else

I'm paralyzed

Where are my feelings?

I no longer feel things

I know I should

I'm paralyzed

Where is the real me?

I'm lost and it kills me inside

I'm paralyzed

When did I become so cold?

When did I become ashamed? (oh)

Where's the person that I know?

They must have left

With all my faith

I'm paralyzed

Where are my feelings?

I no longer feel things

I know I should

I'm paralyzed

Where is the real me?

I'm lost and it kills me inside

I'm paralyzed

I'm scared to live but I'm scared to die

And if life is pain then I buried mine a long time ago

But it's still alive

And it's taking over me where am I?

I wanna feel something, I'm numb inside

But I don't feel nothing, I wonder why

I'm in the race of life and time passed by

Look, I sit back and I watch it

Hands in my pockets

Waves come crashing over me but I just watch 'em

I just watch 'em

I'm underwater but I feel like I'm on top of it

I'm at the bottom and I don't know what the problem is

I'm in a box

But I'm the one who locked me in

Suffocating and I'm running out of oxygen

I'm paralyzed

Where are my feelings?

I no longer feel things

I know I should

I'm paralyzed

Where is the real me?

I'm lost and it kills me inside

I'm paralyzed (I'm just so paralyzed)

Where are my feelings? (yeah, I'm just so paralyzed)

I no longer feel things (I have no feelings)

I know I should (oh how come I'm not moving why aren't I moving ay yeah)

I'm paralyzed

Where is the real me? (where is the real me, where is the real me?)

I'm lost and it kills me inside (I'm paralyzed, I'm paralyzed)

I'm paralyzed (I'm paralyzed)

-Paralyzed (NF)

I know this probably isn't really realistic

And honestly, I might not ever make a difference

But that don't make a difference, I'ma have to risk it

I been crunchin' numbers, you ain't gotta be a mathematician

To see the odds ain't rootin' for me

I can't lie though, it's kinda how I like it to be

The underdog, yeah, you probably think you know what I mean

But what I'm saying is they ever push me, I'm gonna swing, yeah

I could go to college, get in debt like everybody else

Graduate and probably get a job that doesn't pay the bills

That don't make a lot of sense to me, forget the Happy Meals

I don't like the dollar menu, I would rather make a mil'

Huh? Make a meal? Nah, I said make a mil'

Home-cookin', get the grill, how you want it? Pretty well?

Everything I see is overdone to me, I'm not Adele

But I'ma get a record deal and say hello to mass appeal

When I grow up, I just want to pay my bills

Rappin' about the way I feel, oh yeah

I just want to make a couple mil'

Leave it to the fam in the will, oh yeah

I just want to sign a record deal

Maybe buy a house up in the hills, oh yeah

Might not be the best in my field

But I guarantee that I'ma die real

When I grow up

Yeah, ayy

When I grow up

Yeah, yeah, ayy

-When I Grow Up (NF)

(Welcome to the

Welcome to the

Welcome to the)

Hell raising, hair raising

I'm ready for the worst

So frightening, face whitening

Fear that you can't reverse

My phone has no signal

It's making my skin crawl

The silence is so loud

The lights spark and flicker

With monsters much bigger

Than I can control now

Welcome to the panic room

Where all your darkest fears are gonna

Come for you, come for you

Welcome to the panic room

You'll know I wasn't joking

When you see them too, see them too

Welcome to the panic room

(Welcome to the

Welcome to the

Welcome to the)

Still waiting, hands shaking

Maybe the coast will clear

But these voices, these strange noises

They followed me in here

My phone has no signal

It's making my skin crawl

The silence is so loud

The lights spark and flicker

With monsters much bigger

Than I can control now

Welcome to the panic room

Where all your darkest fears are gonna

Come for you, come for you

Welcome to the panic room

You'll know I wasn't joking

When you see them too, see them too

Welcome to the panic room

(Welcome to the

Welcome to the)

There's no crying wolves now

'Cause the truth has settled in

Hiding under goose down

For your nightmare to begin

There's no crying wolves now (welcome to the, welcome to)

'Cause the truth has settled in (welcome to the, welcome to the)

Hiding under goose down (welcome to the, welcome to the)

For your nightmare to begin (welcome to the, welcome to the)

Welcome to the panic room

Where all your darkest fears are gonna

Come for you, come for you

Welcome to the panic room

You'll know I wasn't joking

When you see them too, see them too

Hell raising, hair raising

I'm ready for the worst

-Panic Room (AU/RA and CamelPhat)

They send me away to find them a fortune

A chest filled with diamonds and gold

The house was awake, the shadows and monsters

The hallways, they echoed and groaned

I sat alone, in bed till the morning

I'm crying, "They're coming for me"

And I tried to hold these secrets inside me

My mind's like a deadly disease

I'm bigger than my body

I'm colder than this home

I'm meaner than my demons

I'm bigger than these bones

And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"

I can't help this awful energy

God damn right, you should be scared of me

Who is in control?

I paced around for hours on empty

I jumped at the slightest of sounds

And I couldn't stand the person inside me

I turned all the mirrors around

-Control (Halsey)

My demons are begging me to open up my mouth

I need them, mechanically make the words come out

They fight me, vigorous and angry, watch them pounce

Ignite me, licking up the flames they bring about

I sold my soul to a three-piece

And he told me I was holy

He's got me down on both knees

But it's the devil that's tryna

Hold me down, hold me down

Sneaking out the back door, make no sound

Knock me out, knock me out

Saying that I want more, this is what I live for

Hold me down, hold me down

Throw me in the deep end, watch me drown

Knock me out, knock me out

Saying that I want more, this is what I live for

Selfish, taking what I want and call it mine

I'm helpless, clinging to a little bit of spine

They rush me, telling me I'm running out of time

They shush me (sssh), walking me across a fragile line -Hold Me Down (Halsey)

I, I keep a record of the wreckage of my life

I gotta recognize the weapon in my mind

They talk shit, but I love it every time

And I realize

I've tasted blood and it is sweet

I've had the rug pulled beneath my feet

I've trusted lies and trusted men

Broke down and put myself back together again

Stared in the mirror and punched it to shatters

Collected the pieces and picked out a dagger

I've pinched my skin in between my two fingers-Nightmare (Halsey)

#you don’t know us #don’t pretend you do #part 1

Car Salesman Confidential: Good Negotiating Strategies

So here we are in the first week of 2017. It’s a new year and I’m betting a lot of people are planning on buying a new (or used) car sometime in the coming year. Think you’re ready for some good, old-fashioned fender tradin’? Lookin’ at “figgers?” Crunchin’ numbers? Countin’ squirrels? Whatever you call it, you know what I mean. Negotiating.

This is the part of car buying people dread. Well, most people. There are some folks who absolutely love to negotiate. That’s how they get their kicks, affirm their manhood, and impress their girlfriends: by getting the best of a car salesman. However you feel about it, negotiation is a major part of car buying, so I won’t be able to cover it all at once. What I’d like to do first is offer an overview of a few good strategies car buyers can use to get a better deal, and next time talk about specific techniques that can make you a negotiating ninja.

Build Your Credit

Boy, this is a boring suggestion, isn’t it? You’re probably reading this article because you’re looking for some badass Kung Fu moves to instantly incapacitate any salesman you meet. But boring or not, establishing good credit is the best thing you can do to strengthen your bargaining position.

The fact is that the people with the best credit get the best deals. People with the worst credit often get screwed. People with poor credit pay the highest prices, the most interest, and are often forced to finance for terms that are either too short or too long. Worst of all, their choices are severely limited. They can’t just walk into a dealership and pick out the car of their dreams; the dealership tells them which vehicle they can buy, take it or leave it. On the other hand, people with the best credit pay the lowest prices, the least amount of interest (sometimes none at all), and can finance for terms that suit them. Their choices are almost limitless. They can buy whatever they want, and dealers will fight for their business. While this isn’t exactly a negotiating technique, good credit is the fundamental foundation for effective negotiation, kind of like good physical conditioning is the foundation for good athletic performance.

Timing is Everything

If you’ve ever studied any martial art, you know that timing is critical. If you’re Steven Seagal and someone comes at you with a knife, your irimi nage must come at precisely the right moment. Too early or too late and you get cut. Car deals are a lot like that.

A 63 year old woman came in to buy a vehicle one Saturday. Her car, a 2005 Suzuki Grand Vitara with more than 230,000 miles on it, had been extremely reliable until the day the engine suddenly quit, leaving her stranded. Her mechanic told her it would take $2000 to fix the engine, far more than the vehicle was worth. My customer had to be back at work on Monday, so she was forced to buy a car that weekend. Needless to say, this poor lady was in no position to negotiate.

My advice: don’t wait until you desperately need a car to start shopping for one. If you have a vehicle with 150,000 to 250,000 miles on it, you’re going to have SUBs (Sudden Unexpected Breakdowns). Along with those come SUHEXes (Sudden Unexpected Huge Expenses). So start preparing to buy a new (or newer) vehicle today. Read reviews in Motor Trend, talk to your bank or credit union about financing, ask your friends if they know of a good salesperson, and start setting aside a little money for a down payment.

Pay Attention to Sales Events

You know the ads. “Come on down for our big end-of-the-year close-out!” the announcer yells. “HUGE savings on every model! These cars have GOT TO GO!!!” Before I got into sales I used to laugh at these ads. I thought Big Sales were for suckers. I thought I was so smart I could walk into any dealership at any time and get as good a deal, or better, than the ones being advertised during the “Big Sale.”

I was wrong. The fact is, you really can get a better deal during a Big Sale. The reason? Rebates (if you’re looking at buying new). From time to time manufacturers put rebates on particular models, and those rebates only last for a limited time — usually a month — and then they’re taken away. So for example, in January Zorch might be offering a $2500 rebate on a new Aventura . . . but come February 1st, that rebate will be gone.

How does this work? Let’s say the mark-up in a new Aventura is around $1250. But there’s a $2500 rebate. Add those together and you’re looking at a total discount of $3750 off the sticker price. Pretty good deal, right? Now, if you ignore the ads and come in on February 1st trying to get the same deal, guess what? The most you’ll be able to get off the price is around $1250– because the rebate is no longer available. So pay attention. Big Sales matter!

Obtain Your Own Financing

A few years ago the popular wisdom was to get your financing from a bank or a credit union, because the dealership’s financing was more expensive. That’s no longer the case. Most of the time, my Finance Department can beat your local bank or credit union, sometimes by a substantial margin. However, I would still recommend going to your bank or credit union first, even if you don’t end up using their financing in the end. Why? Because, as a salesperson, I would rather someone else be the first to educate you on what you don’t qualify for. Let them be “the Bad Guy.” Let me be the hero who gets you a better rate.

For example, suppose you used to have stellar credit and you’re used to getting rates like 1.9%. But over the last few years you’ve hit some bumps in the road, had some medical expenses that weren’t paid, been 30 days late on your car payment a few times, rang up some credit card debt, etc., and as a result your credit score isn’t what it used to be. But you aren’t aware of this when you start car shopping, because like most people you don’t pay much attention to your credit. In those circumstances, I don’t want to be the guy who tells you the best rate you qualify for is 14.9%. When I tell people things like that, their first reaction is to hit the ceiling. They think I’m trying to jack them up. Then they go somewhere else, hoping to get some better news. After two or three other dealers have told them “Yessir, 14.9% is the best we can do,” they finally accept reality and buy a car. But I’ve lost a sale. So I’d rather your bank or credit union set your expectations before I see you.

Second, having a draft in hand gives you tremendous bargaining power. Nothing says “Serious Buyer, Ready to Buy” than walking into a dealership with a draft in your hand. That motivates a salesperson. Nobody wants to let a qualified buyer with money in his pocket walk away. So my advice is: talk to your local bank or credit union first, but be open to the possibility of dealer financing. Having choices gives you power.

Stay tuned to Car Salesman Confidential, grasshopper. Next time I’ll talk about specific negotiating tactics to use once you arrive at the dealership. Judo chop!

ITLL GIVE ME TOO MUCH POWER i cant start you know being a opush over all of a sudden i cant strart cashing in these coupons for my people i mean you are all my people i may be harsh sometimes , but an expiration date is a nice motivating factor right? you guys get all jived uop i can see if, i tell you that the deal on 36 packs of pepsi products aint going to last all week and yeah you guys might crack a few extra pops, BUT IT IS ALL FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME, PLAY HARD OR GO HOME if you aint cracking papsis to be getting more pepsis then idk where you are from bc from where i am from we gotta crush a can to crack a can." so he gave the omaha steaks coupon to me, then he snatched it back real quick" what what the fuck this is alot, this is alot of beef, HOLY SHIT THIS . IS A LOT OF COW MY MAN this is a lot of BEEF MY mAN, haha i mean maybe i cant give u all the credit they are going to lose it at work, but i mean what if they dont make it in time, what if you tell them the expiration date and it is too much and they start seeating start them meat sweats thinking about all the meat, before they are even close the the numbers we need to be doing they would already be mioles away thinking about green pastors and cows noshing cud chewing cud into their multiple stomaches, HELL WHAT AM I DOING, CUT THAT OUT i fires amanda right shes long gone haha, she told me that whole cud bullshit that whole 2 stomach lie amanda was so full OF HER SELF SHE DIDNT SEE EYE TO eye with the company hahaha but why am i telling you that you fired her haha for me may have you but i mean we didnt need her aroudn she would not have stood for this ill tell you that she would rip up this coupon in plain sight right on the spot ON SIGHT, damn vaygan damn stinky oat pusher, ahahaha no she was nice i gave her a nice reference and refered her to our other branch a little outside the city but outside enough that they have drool worthy rent, tgheres a brudgening art community out there more affordable living, and more of a focus on copmmunity, working together with neighbors and friends to be building a smaller more sustainable community, ahhahahahah it makes me sick what numbskulls." he give s me the coupon back "itll be simple okay," my boss, my boss is now looking for his beverage, id say coffee bc that what it looks like but this guy abstains from caffine i dont think he is mormnan but mentioned the complete power that mmornam fathers have he has given full speaches to full conferences of peple from aroudn the world on how mormon fathers are so powerful, how they control their whole familyds and brainwash their young into doing whatever they say. i know a mormomn and over the weeekdn she posted for her brothers birthday on insta gram, one of the most unforgivable acts one can preform on instagram, but this post, for her brother was a screenshot of a text from her dad and it was a picture of her brother sent from her father and it said: heres you post for gus's birthday with the caption : mr gus is growing up. and she just posted the whole screenshot which yes, right on the nose like she is aware she must be nuts like she is self aware that she is brainwashed by father but like is this a cry for help i saw that post and was like okay so this is just her mormon instagram where all the comments are people also apart of the acult but then i was like maybe this person is so delusisional that they are okay portraying themself as complete slave to their parents its weird in a way that she feels her father is her boss. its odd. "you take the coupon, where the hell is my ovultine," a big stack of the slippery colorfully printed coupon paper starts to slide off the table but its that slow fall where the top starts to fall and eventually the full stack will fall, but each layer has to pull the next layer down with it so itll take a while to fully fall but my boss lets em all fall as he takes a gulp from his chocolate drink. "oyou take the coupon you present it to everyone in the office you can even stand on my desk ill allow it this will be a bbig day, ill call out that day so that you can look like a dark horse and everyone will cheer for you, ill be hidining in my closet while this is going down but thats just for me:) i just want to hear their yelps when you exclaim when you announce nononon WHEN YOU DECLARE THE OFFICE BBQ, byt you really got to sell it it might help if you read soime of the lines off here, " BIG OMAHA STEAKS BIG JUICY T BONES" wow somne of this i might have to keep haha my freezers full, but it can go in the drink fridge in the 'rage in the garage thats whata i call my garage the 'RAGE but yeah i think theyll be into it, maybe something like 'OMAHA down set OMAHA HIKE EEEEE" its a football thing, those colts fans will get a real kick out of it a big kick. " hes standing on the couch stepping around the couch, crunchin coupons as he steps on the couch, he is dancing around like a quarter back pass faking everywhere pass faking around the living room. "OMAHA AAAAAA HIKE OMAHAAAAAAAAAAA" he has done this before sadly, the omaha steak coupons arent rare they arent they just send them out seasonally so poepl get more excited for them the coupons are all for over 500$ worth of meat its a big deal he doesnt realize that he still has frozen beef in his drink fridge. "omahaaaaaaaaa down set OMAHAHHAHAHAAAAAAAAA, donwn set down set down set;.....

Pixel Slate vs. Pixelbook: The productivity conundrum

New Post has been published on https://www.articletec.com/pixel-slate-vs-pixelbook-the-productivity-conundrum/

Pixel Slate vs. Pixelbook: The productivity conundrum

So maybe you’ve heard: Google’s got a new high-end Pixel product that’s finally ready for us productivity-hunting primates to purchase.

The product is curiously tough to define. It’s a tablet, but probably not like any other tablet you’ve used before. It’s a laptop, but only kinda — and with a fair number of asterisks attached. And it doesn’t run Android, exactly, though it does run Android apps and have an interface that’ll feel awfully familiar if you’ve used a recent Android phone.

The product, as you no doubt know (you smart cookie, you), is the Pixel Slate — a convertible Chrome OS computing device that doubles as both a laptop and a tablet, provided you pick up its optional keyboard accessory. On paper, it almost seems like a more versatile version of Google’s high-end Pixelbook, which is basically the same thing except with a display that swivels back instead of detaching completely.

Once you’ve spent some time using the two products in the real world, though, something becomes painfully clear: These devices are absolutely not equals. And the difference between them is not what you’d initially expect.

Pixel Slate vs. Pixelbook: The stark hardware reality

Let’s get one thing out of the way first: Whether or not Chrome OS is right for you is a question only you can answer. I’m not going to waste your time talking about the merits or limitations of Chrome OS as a platform here, because that truly is a completely separate question (and one we’ve talked about puh-lenty over the years).

So from here on out, we’re gonna assume you’re able to get your work (and non-work) accomplished with a combination of web-centric tools, Android apps, and maybe even a couple Linux apps — and that generally speaking, a Chromebook provides an appropriate and hopefully even ideal productivity environment for you. Capisce? Capisce.

And let’s push one more pesky ol’ elephant out of the room while we’re at it: In terms of user interface, software, and capabilities (and despite what some coverage by folks who clearly don’t spend much time using Chrome OS outside of product review periods may suggest), the Pixel Slate and Pixelbook are essentially identical. So, too, is any other reasonably recent Chromebook with a touchscreen in place. What we’re talking about here, then, are differences in form and hardware between Google’s two flagship laptop/tablet products — nothing less, nothing more.

All right — so all of that being said, here’s the cold, hard, non-sugarcoated truth: Using the Pixel Slate for productivity purposes feels like using a lesser version of the Pixelbook. You’re trading a premium, luxurious-feeling laptop that also doubles quite effectively as a tablet for a pretty nice tablet that awkwardly functions as a second-class laptop.

With the Pixel Slate, instead of a sturdy-feeling metal body à la the Pixelbook, you get a flimsy plastic case with keys built into it. This contrast is most apparent when you try to use the device on your lap — y’know, like a laptop — and its screen wobbles around as you type while its keyboard attachment flexes and shifts beneath your fingers. It’s passable enough, but it’s certainly not ideal — nor is anywhere near a premium-feeling experience.

I’m actually writing this whilst propped up in my bed (yes, it’s that kind of week) and moving back and forth between a Pixelbook and Pixel Slate. Each time, the exchange feels like shifting between a top-of-the-line professional machine and a clumsily constructed screen-and-keyboard-attachment combo. The former is an absolute delight to type on, while the latter is one of those things you’d tolerate if no better options were present — maybe while gently kicking yourself for not packing a preferable solution — but would never willingly select, given the choice.

Harsh, I know. But we’re here to talk truths, and sugarcoating doesn’t serve any of us well.

Oh, and all of that is only part one. The real sticking point is still ahead.

Pixel Slate vs. Pixelbook: The tablet factor

“But surely the Pixel Slate has some advantages,” you must be thinking. And guess what, Waldo? You’re right-o! The Pixel Slate’s speakers are meaningfully better than the Pixelbook’s: They’re located on either side of the display, which means they’re always facing toward you (unlike the Pixelbook’s, which are beneath the keyboard and thus facing the wrong way when you’re using the device in one of its tablet-like arrangements). They’re noticeably fuller-sounding, too — no contest at all there.

And despite the fact that speakers flank its screen, the Pixel Slate has smaller bezels than its sibling, which we all know is a Super Big Deal™ in any 2018 technological assessment. The Pixel Slate also adds a fingerprint sensor into the mix, which a welcome touch, but it lacks a headphone jack (something the Pixelbook does have). Win some, lose some, I guess.

So maybe the Pixel Slate makes sense for someone who mostly wants a tablet, for more passive types of consumption, and doesn’t care so much about the keyboard-using experience? Maybe. But, well, we’re talking primarily about productivity here, remember? And even when it comes to tablet-oriented use — because hey, even the most productive among us occasionally needs to kick back and watch a perfectly (ahem) work-appropriate PG-rated video — I’m just not sure the Pixel Slate is really the preferable choice.

I get that a lot of folks are accustomed to having a tablet that’s a slate-like screen and nothing more, but here’s the thing: The Pixel Slate is a really big screen. It’s 12.3 inches, diagonally, and just over a pound and a half in weight. That makes it too large and heavy to hold comfortably in the air for long, as one might hold a smaller tablet while lying back and relaxing.

You know what is a practical and enjoyable way to use a tablet of this size? With a stand attached. Kind of like the stand built into the Pixelbook, which allows you to position the screen at any angle and comfortably gaze uponst it or even tap it while it rests effortlessly on a table, desk, or your lap. And yes, the Pixel Slate’s keyboard attachment can accomplishment that same effect — but it’s less stable, less durable- and premium-feeling, trickier to manipulate, and less well-suited to the productivity side of your usage. (It also makes the Pixel Slate a touch heavier than the Pixelbook, when attached, and quite a bit clunkier, too.)

Beyond that, the Pixel Slate’s keyboard comes at a literal cost: While the base Pixel Slate costs $999 for a model that’s roughly comparable to the starting level Pixelbook, the keyboard attachment runs an extra 200 bones. If my high-tech number-crunchin’ machines are correct, that means you’re looking at about $1,200 for a system on par with the thousand-dollar Pixelbook — and when it comes to real-world usage, as we’ve established, it actually isn’t on par in oh-so-many ways. (Of note: The Pixelbook is currently marked down to $699, which makes the comparison even more skewed — though there’s no telling how long that discount will last.)

Putting it all together…

So what to make of the Pixel Slate? Who is this product for? Honestly, that’s a question I’ve been struggling to answer since I started using the device about a week ago. I guess if you only want a tablet and don’t care at all about having a physical keyboard, you could make an argument for buying one of the lower-end Pixel Slate models — which start at $599 for fairly limited-power configurations.

But once you start getting into actual productivity, that recommendation gets trickier to make. I don’t think anyone doing serious work will want anything less than the $799 Pixel Slate model, and once you throw in the keyboard, that’s a $998 investment — the same as a high-end convertible Pixelbook, which does all the same stuff as the Pixel Slate but in a superior all-around arrangement and without all the pesky compromises. (And that’s to say nothing of the Pixelbook’s current $699 pricing, of course, which wildly changes everything.)

If you really, truly just have to have a tablet that detaches from its base instead of swiveling around, the Pixel Slate might be worth considering. But I’d strongly suggest rethinking why you need that form and whether the swiveling setup might actually address your needs more effectively — especially when you consider the bigger picture of everything else involved.

Here’s what it boils down to: The Pixelbook is a top-of-the-line convertible that feels like the best of both worlds — a powerful and versatile machine equally well-suited to productivity and entertainment. The Pixel Slate, on the other hand, fails to excel in either domain — and it’s downright disadvantageous in the one most relevant to our current focus. If productivity matters at all to you and you’re looking for a best-in-class experience, the Pixelbook (which is guaranteed to get OS updates all the way through June of 2024, by the way) is still the one to get.

In an era overrun with endless options and ambiguous choices, thank goodness some decisions are still easy to make.
