You surf the interweb with your feet off the ground? That must be hell on your knees and back.<BR/><BR/>@ Willie - I figure, I have all these points... unless Sam and James decide to give a dollar for every point, harboring them is pointless. Fun is fun and since this blog came along (Love you for it, Michele!) it was getting tedious just jockying for points. <BR/><BR/>As far as Flomid - We need to start commenting on his songs. I wrote on his latest "Hey Flo, got anything original", but then decided against it and canceled the comment!

But it's hard when you see one early that you know will do well (if Flomid keeps posting I may have a nervous breakdown). Also I get pretty indignant when no one shares my taste in off the wall.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-520312519498013634.post-65057396176904829142008-03-04T17:15:00.000-05:002008-03-04T17:15:00.000-05:00Excellent points!

I actually think it will be funny <I>AND</I> it will be a snarky way of showing the ridiculousness of the bumpage game. Plus, the newbies can benefit from it and earn their mass points.<BR/><BR/>On a separate note, since I gave up giving a crap about points, I have been having so much more fun than before. I highly recommend it.Apocalypsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15537223671368245433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-520312519498013634.post-8813282146909764212008-03-04T17:10:00.000-05:002008-03-04T17:10:00.000-05:00So what's a poor artist who was part of Daft Punk ...So what's a poor artist who was part of Daft Punk with a scratchy, melancholy male voice ever to do on here to be successful...?<BR/><BR/>Other than that unlikely scenario, it's short, sweet and spot on. <BR/><BR/>Although, if you were to create longer version of it, I would consider the following:<BR/><BR/><B>Instrumental:</B> (does it cover something as epic as <A HREF="http://www.thesixtyone.com/#/CentralBand/collection/collection_item/1064/?autoplay_song" REL="nofollow">Europe - Final Countdown</A>) - this went huge a few months ago. 288 bumps back then was phenomenal.<BR/><BR/><B>Comical:</B> (anything that us computer-goers on here can relate to, like <I>Jonathan Coulton - Code Monkey</I>)<BR/><BR/><B>Funny Name:</B> (either the band or just one song - I found early on the hard way when I first bumped <I>Fresh Body Shop - Candid</I>, fully-knowing that <I>Fresh Body Shop - Mr. Weirdo</I> would always do better just because the name stood out).<BR/><BR/><B>Eye-catching Band Pic:</B> (we all know how this can play out - especially if you've left up the dreaded 61 Road Sign).<BR/><BR/><B>Formerly/Still Popular*:</B> (Presidents of the USA, Nada Surf<B>*</B>, Counting Crows, Radiohead, etc. - move to the front of the line on name recognition period.)<BR/><BR/><B>Covers:</B> (does yours suck? or does it change the song so much it becomes it's own - a la <I>Obadiah Parker's - Heya</I>, the most popularest song evar!).<BR/><BR/><BR/><B>*</B> no pun intended. pun actually realized after the fact.lankysobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03361496416179172251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-520312519498013634.post-11578331579118033652008-03-04T16:56:00.000-05:002008-03-04T16:56:00.000-05:00Damn!
