As always, the idea is that what unites us is more than music, an axiology that extends from the music to our music-lover lifestyles: how we vote, what we drive, what we eat, what we wear, etc.
The point is, we’re a tribe connected by vibe… hence, this month’s compendium:
1. Newsletters
Shameless self-promotion here folks. Certainly the thought of yet another one clogging your inbox may not be appealing. But on the off chance you want even more Outlandos in your life, we’ve got one. Yay! Sign up here.
2. Pedialyte
I’ve been championing this forever. Perfect for hangovers. Sure, it’s made for babies but what eloctrolyte-deprived adult doesn’t need a little boost occasionally, post-party? Screw Gatorade. This stuff is like magic and there’s way less sugar. Plus the grape flavor isn’t a bad mixer, if you’re in a jam. Hell, even Urban Daddy is on the bandwagon although their brand costs a whopping 42 bucks! The kid stuff is about $6. Economical to boot! Pun intended.
3. Slanket
My dad gave me one for Christmas. Freaking genius. Their competitor calls it the Snuggie. But for sure, the Slanket outdoes them in name alone, tenfold. Plus, Snuggies are backordered for the next 4 months. Who doesn’t need one of these?
Hilarious. And “as seen on TV.” Never thought I’d say that in this blog.
4. Grammar
Okay, I watch The Bachelor. I’m only semi-ashamed to admit that. But has anyone else noticed how bad the grammar/vocabulary is on that show? Like “Jason and I’s date.” Or “an intimate dinner for Jason and I.” Jesus, it’s bad. And then there’s just the blatant overuse of “absolutely.” Good Lord. For those in need of a little vocabulary spice, Wordsmith to the rescue.
5. Mammograms
Perhaps TMI but I had my first one last week. Clean bill although ouchy! For the 51% of you who this relates to, hop on those self-exams kiddies! Save our assets, as it were
