    My spouse was admitted to hospital for two weeks and had several geriatric roommates. The nurse asked one of them if she knew where she was, and she yelled “IN SATAN’S ASSHOLE”.

    For a short moment I thought she was referring to the life support.

    Doesn’t make the joke funnier per se, nu a lot darker

    My grandpa had a stroke and the various Mormon friends neighbors that never said a word to this coffee drinking sailor suddenly wanted to put church choir music on.

    He likes Mozart and I will bury you in the backyard if you try

    Huh didn’t realize people hate Coldplay so much. Not for me, but I didn’t think they were particularly bad.

      For a while they were like Maroon 5 level over exposed. I don’t think I’ve heard a song from them in a while though.

        To be honest that level of overexposure doesn’t happen if you totally suck. It was cool to hate on them for a while though. You know, just like it’s cool to hate anything mainstream or basic, which is honestly a pretty basic way to view art in general. Like literally all it takes to participate is to notice that something is popular.

      I could be comatose, damn near brain dead, almost lifeless, and if Rhianna starts singing country I will jump out of the medical bed and throw myself out the nearest window to get away from it.

        Not a country fan, or not a Rihanna country fan? I’m neither, really, but curious to hear from people with real opinions on the genre, etc

        I’m just indifferent to Coldplay and can’t even remember who Maroon 5 is. I’ve also never listened to Billie Eilish, but she has the worst case of resting bitch face I think I’ve ever seen in my life.

    I met a blind guy who wanted to experience a concert, so I took him to hear Coldplay. He said, “Now I wish I was also deaf.”

        I live about 10km from a big festival site. We could hear Metallica playing the other year.

        I’ve been to hundreds and do have the tinnitus but it doesn’t much bother me at all. I rarely go anymore because of unrelated reasons, but it was all worth it.

          I worry because I hear it gets progressively worse even after you’ve stopped exposing yourself to extreme volumes. I raw-dogged two or three shows that were way too loud to be at without protection and that was enough for one ear to have significantly worse hearing than the other, that’s what finally made me start using those musician earplugs. But apparently I can expect the ringing and loss of hearing to continue getting worse anyways…

    You joke but music memory is literally the last thing to go. In fact, if you ever want to help the nurses care for your relative with dementia, make 2 playlists / mixtapes of their favorite songs. One Playlist of calming songs for them to sleep to and to listen to when they’re upset, and one Playlist of exciting songs for when the physical therapist needs to get them up and active!
