@jrobertson woohoo #Men_Without_Hats! Biggest Montreal anglo band ever? Maybe. Depends on if you count #The_Arcade_Fire.
-
@evan Why would you not count #Arcade_Fire? Because Win Butler is from Texas?
-
@frankenspock I was kind of just punting on actually figuring out which band was "bigger", based on arbitrary parameters.
-
@evan I'd call that pattern Self-refuting Taxomony
-
@evan _you're_ an arbitrary parameter.
-
@frankenspock Well, I also ignored Leonard Cohen and Corey Hart, so it's not really scientific.
-
I want to make a line of knit caps with "SOCAL EMO" embroidered on the front.

@evan Cool! I would get one - except I loathe hat hair;-) Aren't you somewhere too sunny to be EMO?
-
@katec EMO is far too easy in in places with bad weather ;-)
-
still wants to go to a goth concert in a white tennis outfit one day.

@exador23 Got a nice one for you: "Love is the white light of emotion" - Diane Ackerman
-
@taomongoose@exador23 You must be bl**ding kidding! Those people are so EMO they canny bear it (disclaimer: I'm from there.................)
-
@katec I'd agree with that. especially considering white is the combination of all colors ;-)
-
@katec in any case, they hadn't adopted the hairstyles in the area I lived. Thank goodness for that.
-
@katec Thus the "SoCal" (Southern California) part. All the Sad Kids here wear heavy wool toques, which is why I think my design would win.
-
@taomongoose At the time I had bells on the end of my skirt (also v short, depending on mileage) AND I went to see My Bloody Valentine :-p
-
@katec where I lived, I saw a lot of shepherds and people who smoked pipes. Where my in-laws lived, we saw nobody at all. lol
-
@evan OMG! That is sooo silly! It's not -19 C there. And the HAT HAIR?? Or is this desirable in SOCAL?

@evan then say "made in canada" and everyone would buy it since canada is cool, at least when people realize it's there ;)
-
@taomongoose Good God man! Sounds great! For a couple of weeks at least;-)
-
@katec I didn't want to leave. Mind you, the house was drafty and the heating was almost nonexistent but hey...it healed my soul
-
@evan I am sad just thinking about it. I think I'll write a song about being sad and sell it to Fall Out Boy for ONE MILLION DOLLARS.
-
@taomongoose I grew up having to put a sweater on every time I left the living room;-) In the city. i have no idea what it did for my soul.
-
LOL! What an image! @exador23 still wants to go to a goth concert in a white tennis outfit one day.
-
@katec Southern California is a mostly silly place. Which is only fair, because otherwise it'd be unjustly awesome.
