4:17 seconds of unadulterated triangle humor

Bring it, Balfa. BRING IT.



Lately I'd been wondering where the funny went in my life and apparently it's on NPR.

NPR had a recent podcast about a soccer mom looking lady who put out an entire album of solo triangle. A couple times she throws out some off-key caterwauling, but this is truly 55 minutes of unadulterated triangle.

THIS SHIT CANNOT BE PARODIED.

My friendz and I sat around yesterday not entirely unconvinced this is not a joke. Someone even asked if this was posted on April Fool's Day. You have to listen for yourself to discover your favorite triangle joke, but my personal high point comes at 2:18 when the sentence "We got lightning in a bottle on that one." is uttered in all seriousness.

I know it's called "All Things Considered", but it really makes you wonder if all things do, in fact, need to be considered.

LISTEN! LISTEN! LISTEN!

And you're welcome.

Okay, that? Was awesome. Especially when she started wailing like a dying cat. WTF?

I'm totally ordering that CD for everyone I know. For Christmas. In April.

This is going straight to my iPod under the "Best Way to End Bad Sex" playlist.

It reminded me of harpsichord, which is an instrument I hate with the passion of all the fires of hell.

Bet you didn't know that about me.

When I first started listening to it I was about to comment "this isn't as bad as I thought." But then in the time it took me to get to the comments section I changed my mind. It is as bad.

No, it's worse.

This is the awesomeness. You know, if the awesomeness was synonymous with violent torture tactics.

I may or may not have had a few drinks tonight, but I am going to send you my digits as a precursor to future texty lewdness just the same.

Okay, so I know I'm a bad person.

Most of my real life friends follow you and read your blog and whatnot (i.e. The Melissa Lion and The Kiala), and I hadn't until today.

Bullet point: I think I love you. I just want to throw it out there.
